The long noncoding RNA NARL regulates immune responses via microRNA-mediated NOD1 downregulation in teleost fish.

ABSTRACT: Increasing evidence shows that the long noncoding RNA (lncRNA) is a major regulator and participates in the regulation of various physiological and pathological processes, such as cell proliferation, differentiation, metastasis, and apoptosis. Unlike mammals, however, the study of lncRNA in lower invertebrates is just beginning and the extent of lncRNA-mediate regulation remains unclear. Here, we for the first time identify an lncRNA, termed nucleotide oligomerization domain 1 (NOD1) antibacterial and antiviral-related lncRNA (NARL), as a key regulator for innate immunity in teleost fish. We found that NOD1 plays an important role in the antibacterial and antiviral process in fish and that the microRNA miR-217-5p inhibits NOD1 expression and thus weakens the NF-κB and the IRF3-driven signaling pathway. Furthermore, our results indicated that NARL functions as a competing endogenous RNA (ceRNA) for miR-217-5p to regulate protein abundance of NOD1; thus, invading microorganisms are eliminated and immune responses are promoted. Our study also demonstrates the regulation mechanism that lncRNA NARL can competitive adsorption miR-217-5p to regulate the miR-217-5p/NOD1 axis is widespread in teleost fish. Taken together, our results reveal that NARL in fish is a critical positive regulator of innate immune responses to viral and bacterial infection by suppressing a feedback to NOD1-NF-κB/IRF3-mediated signaling.

The circular RNA circBCL2L1 regulates innate immune responses via microRNA-mediated downregulation of TRAF6 in teleost fish.

Project description:Growing numbers of studies have shown that circular RNAs (circRNAs) can function as regulatory factors to regulate the innate immune response, cell proliferation, cell migration, and other important processes in mammals. However, the function and regulatory mechanism of circRNAs in lower vertebrates are still unclear. Here, we discovered a novel circRNA derived from the gene encoding Bcl-2-like protein 1 (BCL2L1) gene, named circBCL2L1, which was related to the innate immune responses in teleost fish. Results indicated that circBCL2L1 played essential roles in host antiviral immunity and antibacterial immunity. Our study also identified a microRNA, miR-30c-3-3p, which could inhibit the innate immune response by targeting inflammatory mediator TRAF6. And TRAF6 is a key signal transduction factor in innate immune response mediated by TLRs. Moreover, we also found that the antiviral and antibacterial effects inhibited by miR-30c-3-3p could be reversed with the expression of circBCL2L1. Our data revealed that circBCL2L1 functioned as a competing endogenous RNA (ceRNA) of TRAF6 by competing for binding with miR-30c-3-3p, leading to activation of the NF-κB/IRF3 inflammatory pathway and then enhancing the innate immune responses. Our results suggest that circRNAs can play an important role in the innate immune response of teleost fish.

Long noncoding RNA IRL regulates NF-κB-mediated immune responses through suppression of miR-27c-3p-dependent IRAK4 downregulation in teleost fish.

Project description:Growing pieces of evidence show that the long noncoding RNAs (lncRNAs) as new regulators participate in the regulation of various physiological and pathological processes. The study of lncRNA in lower invertebrates is still unclear compared with that in mammals. Here, we identified a novel lncRNA, termed IRAK4-related lncRNA (IRL), as a key regulator for innate immunity in teleost fish. We find that miR-27c-3p inhibits IRAK4 expression and thus weakens the NF-κB-mediated signaling pathway. Furthermore, the Gram-negative bacterium Vibrio anguillarum and lipopolysaccharide significantly upregulated host lncRNA IRL expression. Results indicate that IRL functions as a competing endogenous RNA for miR-27c-3p to regulate protein abundance of IRAK4; thus, invading microorganisms are eliminated and immune responses are promoted. Our study also demonstrates the regulation mechanism that lncRNA IRL can competitively adsorb miRNA to regulate the miR-27c-3p/IRAK4 axis that is widespread in teleost fish.

Circular RNA circDtx1 regulates IRF3-mediated antiviral immune responses through suppression of miR-15a-5p-dependent TRIF downregulation in teleost fish.

Project description:Circular RNAs (circRNAs) represent a class of widespread and diverse covalently closed circular endogenous RNAs that exert crucial functions in regulating gene expression in mammals. However, the function and regulation mechanism of circRNAs in lower vertebrates are still unknown. Here, we discovered a novel circRNA derived from Deltex E3 ubiquitin ligase 1 (Dtx1) gene, namely, circDtx1, which was related to the antiviral responses in teleost fish. Results indicated that circDtx1 played essential roles in host antiviral immunity and inhibition of SCRV replication. Our study also found a microRNA miR-15a-5p, which could inhibit antiviral immune response and promote viral replication by targeting TRIF. Moreover, we also found that the antiviral effect inhibited by miR-15a-5p could be reversed with the circDtx1. In mechanism, our data revealed that circDtx1 was a competing endogenous RNA (ceRNA) of TRIF by sponging miR-15a-5p, leading to activation of the NF-κB/IRF3 pathway, and then enhancing the innate antiviral responses. Our results indicated that circRNAs played a regulatory role in immune responses in teleost fish.

Convergent Evolution of Mucosal Immune Responses at the Buccal Cavity of Teleost Fish.

Project description:The buccal mucosa (BM) is a critical first line of defense in terrestrial animals. To gain further insights into the evolutionary origins and primordial roles of BM in teleosts here we show that rainbow trout, a teleost fish, contains a diffuse mucosal associated lymphoid tissue (MALT) within its buccal cavity. Upon parasite infection, a fish immunoglobulin specialized in mucosal immunity (sIgT) was induced to a high degree, and parasite-specific sIgT responses were mainly detected in the buccal mucus. Moreover, we show that the trout buccal microbiota is prevalently coated with sIgT. Overall our findings revealed that the MALT is present in the BM of a non-tetrapod species. As fish IgT and mucus-producing cells are evolutionarily unrelated to mammalian IgA and salivary glands, respectively, our findings indicate that mucosal immune responses in the BM of teleost fish and tetrapods evolved through a process of convergent evolution.

microRNA-210 and microRNA-3570 Negatively Regulate NF-κB-Mediated Inflammatory Responses by Targeting RIPK2 in Teleost Fish.

Project description:Pathogen infection can cause the production of inflammatory cytokines, which are key mediators that cause the host's innate immune response. Therefore, proper regulation of immune genes associated with inflammation is essential for immune response. Among them, microRNAs (miRNAs) as gene regulator have been widely reported to be involved in the innate immune response of mammals. However, the regulatory network in which miRNAs are involved in the development of inflammation is largely unknown in lower vertebrates. Here, we identified two miRNAs from miiuy croaker (Miichthys miiuy), miR-210 and miR-3570, which play a negative regulatory role in host antibacterial immunity. We found that the expressions of miR-210 and miR-3570 were significantly upregulated under the stimulation of Gram-negative bacterium vibrio harveyi and LPS (lipopolysaccharide). Induced miR-210 and miR-3570 inhibit inflammatory cytokine production by targeting RIPK2, thereby avoiding excessive inflammation. In particular, we found that miR-210 and miR-3570 negatively regulate antimicrobial immunity by regulating the RIPK2-mediated NF-κB signaling pathway. The collective results indicated that both miRNAs are used as negative feedback regulators to regulate RIPK2-mediated NF-κB signaling pathway and thus play a regulatory role in bacteria-induced inflammatory response.

Recognition of Lipopolysaccharide and Activation of NF-?B by Cytosolic Sensor NOD1 in Teleost Fish.

Project description:Lipopolysaccharide (LPS) is the major component of the outer membrane of Gram-negative bacteria. This molecule can induce strong immune response and various biological effects. In mammals, TLR4 can recognize LPS and induce inflammatory response. However, the innate receptor in fish for recognizing LPS remains ambiguous. LPS can invade the cytoplasm via outer membrane vesicles produced by Gram-negative bacteria and could be detected by intracellular receptor caspase-11 in mammals, so, there may also exist the intracellular receptors that can recognize LPS in fish. NOD1 is a member of NOD-like receptors family and can recognize the iE-DAP in the cytoplasm in mammals. In fish, NOD1 can also respond to infection of Gram-negative bacteria and may play an important role in the identification of bacterial components. In this study, to study whether NOD1 is a recognition receptor for LPS, we detected the expression of NOD1 and several cytokines at transcript levels to determine whether LPS can induce inflammatory response in teleost fish and NOD1 can respond to LPS. Then, we perform the binding analysis between NOD1 and ultrapure LPS by using Streptavidin pulldown assay and enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay to prove that NOD1 can be combined with LPS, and using dual luciferase reporter gene assay to verify the signal pathways activated by NOD1. Next, through cell viability analysis, we proved that LPS-induced cytotoxicity can be mediated by NOD1 in fish. The results showed that NOD1 can identify LPS and activate the NF-?B signal pathway by recruiting RIPK2 and then promoting the expression of inflammatory cytokines to induce the resistance of organism against bacterial infection.

CD4: a vital player in the teleost fish immune system.

Project description:CD4 is a nonpolymorphic transmembrane glycoprotein molecule that is expressed on the surface of T-helper cells and plays an essential role in the immune response. It functions as a coreceptor with the T-cell receptor by binding to major histocompatibility complex class II on the surface of dendritic cells that present antigens. CD4+ T cells hold a key position in coordinating the immune system through production of several cytokines after activation and differentiation. The CD4+ T helper subtypes (T-helper 1, T-helper 2, T-helper 17, T-helper 9, and regulatory-T cells) perform different immune functions subsequent to their differentiation from the naive T cells. Different types of CD4+ T cells require different cytokines such as drivers and effectors, as well as master transcription factors for their activation. Fish cells that express CD4-related genes are activated in the presence of a pathogen and release cytokines against the pathogen. This review highlights the types of CD4+ T cells in fish and describes their direct role in cell-mediated and humoral immunity for protection against the intracellular bacterial as well as viral infections in fish.

Long noncoding RNA MARL regulates antiviral responses through suppression miR-122-dependent MAVS downregulation in lower vertebrates.

Project description:Increasing evidence suggests important roles for long noncoding RNAs (lncRNAs) as new gene modulators involved in various biological processes. However, the function roles of lncRNAs in lower vertebrates are still unknown. Here, we firstly identify a lncRNA, named MAVS antiviral-related lncRNA (MARL), as a key regulator for antiviral immunity in teleost fish. The results indicate that fish MAVS play essential roles in host antiviral responses and inhibition of Siniperca chuatsi rhabdovirus (SCRV) replication. miR-122 reduces MAVS expression and suppress MAVS-mediated antiviral responses, which may help viruses evade host antiviral responses. Further, MARL functions as a competing endogenous RNA (ceRNA) for miR-122 to control protein abundance of MAVS, thereby inhibiting SCRV replication and promoting antiviral responses. Our data not only shed new light on understanding the function role of lncRNA in biological processes in lower vertebrates, but confirmed the hypothesis that ceRNA regulatory networks exist widely in vertebrates.
