Transcriptional changes during naturally-acquired ZIKA Virus infection render dendritic cells highly conducive to viral replication

ABSTRACT: Although dendritic cells (DCs) are among the human cell population best equipped for cell-intrinsic antiviral immune defense, they seem highly susceptible to infection with Zika Virus (ZIKV). Using highly-purified mDC isolated from individuals with naturally-acquired acute infection, we here show that ZIKV induces profound perturbations of transcriptional signatures relative to uninfected patients. Interestingly, we noted a remarkable downregulation of antiviral Interferon-stimulated genes and innate immune sensors, suggesting that ZIKV can actively suppress Interferon-dependent immune responses. In contrast, several host factors known to support ZIKV infection were strongly upregulated during natural ZIKV infection; these transcripts included AXL, the main entry receptor for ZIKV, SOCS3, a negative regulator of ISG expression, and IDO-1, a recognized inducer of regulatory T cell responses. Thus, during in vivo infection, ZIKV can transform the transcriptome of dendritic cells in favor of the virus to render these cells highly conducive to ZIKV infection.

Social network architecture of human immune cells in ZIKV-infected patients highlights a unique role of plasmacytoid dendritic cells

Project description:Zika virus (ZIKV) is an emerging mosquito-borne pathogen with increasing public health significance. To characterize interconnected immune responses to ZIKV, we here examined transcriptional signatures of CD4 and CD8 T cells, B cells, NK cells, monocytes, myeloid dendritic cells (mDCs), and plasmacytoid dendritic cells (pDCs) from three individuals with naturally-acquired ZIKV infection. While gene expression patterns from most cell subsets displayed signs of impaired antiviral immune activity, pDCs showed a highly distinct transcriptional response marked by an activation of innate immune recognition and type I interferon signaling pathways, combined with a downregulation of key host factors known to support ZIKV replication steps. At the same time, pDCs exhibited a unique expression pattern of gene modules that were tightly correlated with alternative cell populations, suggesting highly collaborative interactions between pDCs and other immune cells. Together, these results point towards a discrete but integrative role of pDCs in the human immune response to ZIKV infection.

Single-cell analysis reveals an antiviral network that controls Zika virus infection in human dendritic cells

Project description:Zika virus (ZIKV) is a mosquito-borne flavivirus that caused an epidemic in the Americas in 2016 and is linked to severe neonatal birth defects, including microcephaly and spontaneous abortion. To better understand the host response to ZIKV infection, we adapted the 10x Genomics Chromium single cell RNA sequencing (scRNA-seq) assay to simultaneously capture viral RNA and host mRNA. Using this assay, we profiled the antiviral landscape in a population of human moDCs infected with ZIKV at the single cell level. The bystander cells, which lacked detectable viral RNA, expressed an antiviral state that was enriched for genes coinciding predominantly with a type I interferon (IFN) response. Within the infected cells, viral RNA negatively correlated with type I IFN dependent and independent genes (antiviral module). We modeled the ZIKV specific antiviral state at the protein level leveraging experimentally derived protein-interaction data. We identified a highly interconnected network between the antiviral module and other host proteins. In this work, we propose a new paradigm for the antiviral response to a specific virus, combining an unbiased list of genes that highly correlate with viral RNA on a per cell basis with experimental protein interaction data. Our ZIKV-inclusive scRNA-seq assay will serve as a useful tool to gaining greater insight into the host response to ZIKV and can be applied more broadly to the flavivirus field.

Zika Virus Non-Coding RNAs Antagonize Antiviral Responses by PKR-Mediated Translational Arrest (RNA-Seq)

Project description:Zika virus (ZIKV) is an emerging mosquito-borne flavivirus that causes severe outbreaks in human populations. ZIKV infection leads to the accumulation of small non-coding viral RNAs (known as sfRNAs) that are crucial for evasion of antiviral responses and for viral pathogenesis. However, the mechanistic understanding of how sfRNAs function remains incomplete. Here, we use recombinant ZIKVs and ribosome profiling of infected human cells to show that sfRNAs block translation of antiviral genes. Mechanistically, we demonstrate that specific RNA structures present in sfRNAs trigger PKR activation, which instead of limiting viral replication, enhances viral particle production. Although ZIKV infection induces mRNA expression of antiviral genes, translation efficiency of type I interferon and interferon stimulated genes were significantly downregulated by PKR activation. Our results reveal a novel viral adaptation mechanism mediated by sfRNAs, where ZIKV increases its fitness by repurposing the antiviral role of PKR into a proviral factor.

Zika virus impacts extracellular vesicle composition and cellular gene expression in macaque early gestation trophoblasts

Project description:Zika virus (ZIKV) infection at the maternal-placental interface is associated with adverse pregnancy outcomes including fetal demise and pregnancy loss. To determine how infection impacts placental trophoblasts, we utilized rhesus macaque trophoblast stem cells (TSC) that can be differentiated into early gestation syncytiotrophoblasts (ST) and extravillous trophoblasts (EVT). TSCs and STs, but not EVTs, were highly permissive to productive infection with ZIKV strain DAK AR 41524. The impact of ZIKV on the cellular transcriptome showed that infection of TSCs and STs increased expression of immune related genes, including those involved in type I and type III interferon responses. ZIKV exposure altered extracellular vesicle (EV) protein, mRNA, and miRNA cargo, regardless of productive infection. These findings suggest that early gestation macaque TSCs and STs are permissive to ZIKV infection, and that EV analysis may provide a foundation for identifying non-invasive biomarkers of placental infection in a highly translational model.

Zika virus infection reprograms global transcription of host cells to allow sustained infection

Project description:Zika virus (ZIKV) is an emerging virus causally linked to neurological disorders, including congenital microcephaly and Guillain–Barré syndrome. There are currently no targeted therapies for ZIKV infection. To identify novel antiviral targets and to elucidate the mechanisms by which ZIKV exploits the host cell machinery to support sustained replication, we analyzed the transcriptomic landscape of human microglia, fibroblast, embryonic kidney, and monocyte-derived macrophage cell lines before and after ZIKV infection.

Zika virus antagonizes interferon response in patients and disrupts RIG-I-MAVS interaction through its CARD-TM domains

Project description:The emerging threat to global health associated with the Zika virus (ZIKV) epidemics and its link to severe complications highlights a growing need to better understand the pathogenic mechanisms of ZIKV. Accumulating evidence for a critical role of type I interferon (IFN-I) in protecting hosts from ZIKV infection lies in the findings that ZIKV has evolved various strategies to subvert the host defense line by counteracting the early IFN induction or subsequent IFN signaling. Yet, mechanisms underlying the counter-IFN capability of ZIKV and its proteins, which might contribute to the well-recognized broad cellular tropisms and persistence of ZIKV, remain to be fully understood. In our current study, using RNA sequencing-based transcriptional profiling from the whole blood cells isolated from patients acutely infected by ZIKV, we found that transcriptional signatures of antiviral interferon-stimulated genes and innate immune sensors was absent in ZIKV-infected patients presents inactive as compared to healthy donors, suggesting that ZIKV might suppress the induction of IFN-I during the natural infection process in human. Furthermore, utilizing cellular or extracellular analysis of molecular interaction in a ZIKV NS4A-overexpression system, or in the context of actual ZIKV infection, we have identified that ZIKV NS4A directly binds MAVS and thereby interrupts RIG-I/MAVS interaction through its CARD-TM domains, leading to attenuated production of IFN-I. Taken together, these findings originated from patient studies have added new knowledge and molecular details to our understanding regarding how ZIKV mediates suppression of the IFN-I system and may provide new basis for future development of anti-ZIKV strategies.

Zika virus infection activates cellular immune responses in Sertoli cells and dysregulates proteins involved in carbohydrate metabolism and cardiovascular disease

Project description:Zika virus (ZIKV) causes congenital brain abnormalities and Guillain-Barre syndrome. It mainly transmits by Aedes mosquitoes, but infections also are linked to sexual transmissions. ZIKV can proliferate in human Sertoli cells (HSerC) for several weeks in vitro, suggesting that it might be a reservoir for persistent ZIKV infection. This study determined the proteomic changes in HSerC during ZIKV infections by TMT-mass spectrometry analysis. In Sertoli cells, a total of 4416 unique proteins were significantly dis-regulated across 3, 5, and 7 days after ZIKV infection. The dis-regulated proteins include enzymes, transcription regulators, transporters, kinases, peptidases, transmembrane receptors, cytokines, ion channels, and growth factors. Many of those proteins are involved in antiviral response, antigen presentation, and immune cell activation.
