Project description:Among HTLV-1-infected individuals, the lifetime risk of developing HTLV-1-associated myelopathy/tropical spastic paraparesis (HAM/TSP) is associated with the HTLV-1 gene subgroup (i.e., subgroup-A or -B) in Japan. The purpose of this study is to understand the molecular mechanism responsible for this association.

Project description:HTLV-1 preferentially infects CD4+ T cells and these cells play a central role in HTLV-1 infection. In this study, we investigated the global gene expression profile of circulating CD4+ T cells from distinct clinical status of HTLV-1-infected individuals in regard to Tax expression levels. CD4+ T cells were isolated from asymptomatic HTLV-1 carrier (HAC) and HTLV-1 associated myelopathy/tropical spastic paraparesis (HAM/TSP) patients, in order to identify genes involved in the HAM/TSP development. Hierarchical clustering analysis showed that healthy controls (CT) and HTLV-1-infected samples clustered separately. We also observed that HAC and HAM/TSP groups clustered separately regardless Tax expression. The gene expression profile of CD4+ T cells was compared among CT, HAC and HAM/TSP groups. The IL-27, PXN, CXCR4, GZMA, PRF1 and Foxp3 genes were differentially expressed between HAC and HAM/TSP groups and the frequency of CD4+Foxp3+ regulatory T cells (Treg) were higher in HTLV-1-infected individuals. These findings suggest that CD4+ T cells activity is distinct between HAC and HAM/TSP groups as expected. In order to study the transcriptional changes in CD4 T cell from HTLV-1-infected individuals, immunomagnetically purified CD4+ T-cells from the peripheral blood of 4 asymptomatic HTLV-1 carrier individuals (HAC) and 4 individuals with HTLV-1 associated myelopathy/tropical spastic paraparesis (HAM/TSP), as well as from 4 healthy controls (CT) were isolated and processed the microarray assay according Agilent's protocol. The differential expressed genes, molecular characterization and networks analysis were evaluated using robust bioinformatic tools, then the real time PCR was done to validate the genes.

Project description:HTLV-1 is the etiologic agent of HTLV-1 associated myelopathy/tropical spastic paraparesis (HAM/TSP). CD8+ T cells may contribute to the protection or development of HAM/TSP. In this study we used SAGE to assess gene expression profiles of CD8+ T cells isolated from HTLV-1 asymptomatic carriers (HAC) and from HAM/TSP patients, in order to identify genes involved in the HAM/TSP development. Analysis of SAGE was conducted by pooling samples according to clinical status. The comparison of gene expression profiles between controls and HAC or HAM/TSP identified around 900 genes. HAC versus HAM/TSP libraries showed 285 differentially expressed genes. We found that CXCR4 had a lower expression level in the HTLV-1 infected group than in controls. CCL5 had higher expression in HAM/TSP group, as compared to HAC. Our results provide a large-scale perspective of gene expression that may be further tested with functional assays to increase our understanding on the HTLV1-related diseases pathology. Comparative analysis of gene expression profiles of CD8+ T Lymphocytes isolated from HTLV-1 infected individuals.

Project description:Human T-cell leukemia virus type 1 (HTLV-1) is linked to the development of adult T-cell leukemia (ATL) and the neuroinflammatory disease, HTLV-1-associated myelopathy/tropical spastic paraparesis (HAM/TSP). The HTLV-1 Tax oncoprotein regulates viral gene expression and the NF-kB pathway to promote the survival of HTLV-1 infected T cells. In thsi study, we utilize a kinome-wide shRNA screen to identify the tyrosine kinase KDR/VEGFR2 as an essential survival factor of HTLV-1-transformed T cells. Inhibition of KDR induces apoptosis of Tax expressing HTLV-1-transformed cell lines and CD4+ T cells from HAM/TSP patients. Phosphoproteomics analysis of HTLV-1 transformed cells treated with a KDR inhibitor revealed inhibition of the phosphorylation of multiple receptors/cell surface proteins, ubiquitin conjugating systems, proteases, phosphatases, apoptotic regulatory factors, adhesion/extracellular matrix proteins and viral proteins. This work suggests that HTLV-1 Tax has hijacked KDR kinase activity to promote Tax stability and the proliferation and survival of HTLV-1 infected cells.

Project description:Human T-lymphotropic virus type 1 (HTLV-1)-associated myelopathy/tropical spastic paraparesis (HAM/TSP) is an inflammatory neurodegenerative disease that affects motor, urinary, intestinal, and sensory functions. Typically, HAM/TSP is slowly progressive, but it may vary from limited motor disability after decades (very slow progression) to loss of motor function in a few years from disease onset (rapid). In this study, we aimed to identify prognostic biomarkers for HAM/TSP to support patient management. Thus, proteomic analysis of the cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) was performed with samples from HTLV-1 asymptomatic carriers (AC) (n=13) and HAM/TSP patients (n=21) with rapid, typical, and very slow progression using quantitative label-free liquid chromatography/tandem mass spectrometry. Enrichment analyses were also carried out to identify key biological processes associated with distinct neurological conditions in HTLV-1 infection. Candidate biomarkers were validated by ELISA in paired CSF and serum samples, and samples from HTLV-1-seronegative individuals (n=9) were used as controls. CSF analysis identified 602 proteins. Leukocyte/cell activation, immune response processes and neurodegeneration pathways were enriched in rapid progressors. Conversely, HTLV-1 AC and HAM/TSP patients with typical and very slow progression had enriched processes for nervous system development. Differential expression analysis showed that soluble vascular cell adhesion molecule 1 (sVCAM-1), chitotriosidase 1 (CHIT1), and cathepsin C (CTSC) were upregulated in HAM/TSP. However, only CHIT1 was significantly elevated after validation, particularly in HAM/TSP rapid progressors. In contrast, none of these biomarkers were altered in serum. Additionally, CSF CHIT1 levels in HAM/TSP patients positively correlated with the speed of HAM/TSP progression, defined as points in the IPEC-2 HAM/TSP disability scale per year of disease, and with CSF levels of phosphorylated neurofilament heavy chain, neopterin, CXCL5, CXCL10, and CXCL11. In conclusion, higher CSF levels of CHIT1 were associated with HAM/TSP rapid progression and correlated with other biomarkers of neuroinflammation and neurodegeneration. Therefore, we propose CHIT1 as a surrogate CSF biomarker to identify HAM/TSP patients with a worse prognosis.
