Alterations of redox and iron metabolism accompany development of HIV latency

ABSTRACT: Metabolic alterations, such as oxidative stress, are hallmarks of HIV-1 infection. However, their influence on the development of viral latency, and thus on HIV-1 persistence during antiretroviral therapy (ART), have just begun to be explored. We analyzed omics profiles of in-vitro and in-vivo models of infection by HIV-1 and its simian homolog SIVmac. We found that cells survive retroviral replication by upregulating antioxidant pathways and intertwined iron import pathways. These changes are associated with remodeling of the redox sensitive promyelocytic leukemia protein nuclear bodies (PML NBs), an important constituent of nuclear architecture and a marker of HIV-1 latency. We found that PML is depleted in productively infected cells and restored by ART. Moreover, we identified intracellular iron as a key link between oxidative stress and PML depletion, thus supporting iron metabolism modulators as pharmacological tools to impair latency establishment.

A histone deacetylase network regulates epigenetic reprogramming and viral silencing in HIV infected cells

Project description:During HIV infection, a latent viral reservoir is formed that persists during antiretroviral therapy (ART) and is maintained by a heritable state of transcriptional repression. Recent findings indicate that much of the reservoir originates from infections occurring in the weeks near the time of ART initiation, raising the important possibility that interventions during this period might prevent reservoir seeding and substantially reduce reservoir size. Based on this concept, we tested the ability of compounds that target epigenetic machinery to prevent the establishment of latent HIV infection in primary CD4 T cells. We identified class 1 histone deacetylase inhibitors (HDACi) as potent agents of latency prevention, an activity distinct from latency reversal. Inhibiting HDACs in productively infected cells caused extended maintenance of HIV expression, even after HDACi withdrawal, and this activity was associated with persistently elevated H3K9 acetylation and reduced H3K9 methylation at the viral LTR promoter region. HDAC inhibition in HIV-infected CD4 T cells during effector-to-memory transition led to a striking change in the memory subset distribution indicating reprogramming of cell identity. Through knockout of individual HDACs and use of HDAC-selective inhibitors, we determined that HDAC1 and HDAC3 play crucial and distinct roles in proviral silencing initiation. Overall, this work indicates that a network of HDACs regulate a critical gateway process for HIV latency establishment and are required for the development of CD4 T-cell memory subsets that preferentially harbor long-lived, latent provirus. Epigenetic reprogramming by clinical targeting of HDACs during ART initiation may represent a novel way to prevent seeding of the HIV reservoir in vivo

Transcriptional response of HIV-infected CD4 memory T cells to co-culture with TCR activated CD8 T cells.

Project description:The persistence of HIV infection under ART is due to a reservoir of latently infected cells that harbor replication-competent virus and evade immune recognition. Defining the mechanisms responsible for the establishment and maintenance of HIV latency is crucial to achieve HIV eradication or functional cure. Previous studies demonstrated a non-cytotoxic CD8+ T-cells mediated inhibition of virus replication during untreated HIV/SIV infection and inhibition of virus production under ART; however, the mechanisms responsible for this antiviral effect remained poorly understood. In our primary cell-based in vitro latency model we demonstrated that co-culture with CD8+ T-cells promotes changes in metabolic and cell survival pathways in HIV-infected memory CD4+ T-cells that may negatively regulate HIV expression and ultimately promote the establishment of latency. Modulation of this CD8-mediated activity may represent a tool to disrupt HIV latency and reservoir persistence in ART-treated individuals.

HIV latency reversal via combined non-canonical NF- B agonism and targeted BET family bromodomain inhibition

Project description:Latency reversal and clearance strategies for HIV cure are beginning to employ IAP antagonists (IAPi) to induce unprecedented levels of latent reservoir expression without immunotoxicity during suppressive antiretroviral therapy (ART). However, full targeting of the reservoir may require combinatorial approaches. A Jurkat latency model screen for IAPi combination partners demonstrated synergistic latency reversal with Bromodomain and Extra-Terminal domain protein inhibitors (BETi). Mechanistic investigations using CRISPR-CAS9 and single cell-RNAseq informed comprehensive ex vivo evaluations of IAPi plus pan-BET, bromodomain (BD)-selective BET, or selective BET isoform targeting in CD4 T cells from ART-suppressed donors. IAPi+BETi treatment resulted in striking induction of cell-associated HIV gag RNA but lesser induction of fully elongated and tat-rev RNA, especially compared to T cell activation positive controls. IAPi/BETi resulted in HIV protein induction in bulk cultures of CD4 T cells using an ultrasensitive p24 assay, but did not translate to enhanced viral outgrowth frequency using a standard quantitative viral outgrowth assay. Overall, this study defines HIV transcriptional elongation and splicing as key barriers to latent HIV protein expression following latency reversal, delineates the roles of BET proteins and their bromodomains in HIV latency, and provides rationale for testing of IAPi+BETi in animal models of HIV latency.

Transcriptional profiling of antigen-responding CD4 T cells from PLWH to antigenic stimulation or global T cell activation

Project description:Despite antiretroviral therapy (ART), HIV-1 persists in latently-infected CD4+ T cells, preventing cure. Antigen (Ag) drives proliferation of infected cells, preventing latent reservoir decay. However, the relationship between antigen recognition and HIV-1 gene expression is poorly understood since most studies of latency reversal use agents that induce non-specific global T cell activation. Here, we isolated rare CD4+ T cells responding to cytomegalovirus (CMV) or HIV-1 Gag antigens from participants on long-term ART and assessed T cell activation and HIV-1 RNA expression upon co-culture with autologous dendritic cells (DCs) presenting cognate antigens. Physiological presentation of cognate antigens induced broad T cell activation (median 42-fold increase in CD154+CD69+ cells) and significantly increased HIV-1 transcription (median 4-fold), mostly through the induction of rare cells with higher viral expression. Thus, despite low proviral inducibility, physiologic antigen recognition can promote HIV-1 expression, potentially contributing to spontaneous reservoir activity on ART and viral rebound upon ART interruption. Additionally, we observed striking differences in the transcriptome profiles of Ag-responding CD4+ T cells after stimulations with Ag or global T cell activators. This analysis revealed quantitative differences between NFAT and NFkB target genes and may guide future approaches to Ag-mediated HIV-1 latency reversal.

PADI4-mediated citrullination of histone H3 stimulates HIV-1 transcription

Project description:HIV-1 infection establishes a reservoir of long-lived cells with integrated proviral DNA that can persist despite antiretroviral therapy (ART). The mechanisms governing the transcriptional regulation of the provirus are complex and incompletely understood. Here, we investigated the role of histone H3 citrullination, a post-translational modification catalyzed by protein-arginine deiminase type-4 (PADI4), in HIV-1 transcription and latency. We found that PADI4 inhibition by GSK484 reduced HIV-1 transcription after T cell activation in ex vivo cultures of CD4 T cells from viremic and ART treated people living with HIV-1 (PLWH). The effect was more pronounced in the viremic group. Using cell models of HIV-1 latency, we showed that PADI4-mediated citrullination of histone H3 occurred at the HIV-1 promoter upon T cell stimulation which facilitated proviral transcription. HIV-1 preferentially integrated into genomic regions marked by H3 citrullination and these integrated proviruses were less prone to latency compared to those in non-citrullinated chromatin. Inhibiting PADI4 led to compaction of the HIV-1 promoter chromatin and an increase of HP1a-covered heterochromatin, in a mechanism partly dependent on the HUSH complex. Our data reveal a novel mechanism of HIV-1 transcriptional regulation by PADI4 through H3 citrullination.

Molecular signatures of HIV latency established in different conditions revealed by single-cell RNA sequencing

Project description:Because HIV provirus in many cells during latency is not entirely silent, it became possible to use single-cell RNA sequencing (scRNA-seq) to determine gene expression patterns in a subset of latently infected cells. In this study, we aimed to identify molecular signatures, or biomarkers, of latency established in different conditions. We have used two in vitro models of HIV latency. The first model involved infection, activation of CD4+ T cells using anti-CD3/anti-CD28 antibodies and allowing the cells to return to quiescence (the 14-day model). The second model involved direct infection of the resting CD4+ T cells via co-culture with autologous productively infected cells to allow cell-to-cell virus transmission (the 10-day model). Furthermore, we utilized an isogenic pair of CXCR4- and CCR5-tropic viruses for direct infection of resting cells. Finally, CD4+ T cells from people with HIV were also profiled. We show common and unique molecular signatures of latency established in different conditions; a subset of genes identified in vitro was validated using cells from people with HIV.

Aminobisphosphonates reactivate the latent reservoir in people living with HIV-1

Project description:Antiretroviral therapy (ART) is not curative due to the existence of cellular reservoirs of latent HIV-1 that persist during therapy 1. Current research efforts to cure HIV-1 infection include “shock and kill” strategies to disrupt latency using small molecules or latency-reversing agents (LRAs) to induce expression of HIV-1 enabling cytotoxic immune cells to eliminate infected cells 2. However, the modest success of current LRAs urges the field to identify novel drugs with increased clinical efficacy 3,4. Aminobisphosphonates that include pamidronate, zoledronate, or alendronate, are the first-line treatment of bone-related diseases including osteoporosis and bone malignancies 5. Here, we show the use of aminobisphosphonates as a novel class of LRA: we found in ex vivo assays using primary cells from ART-suppressed people living with HIV-1 that aminobisphosphonates induce HIV-1 from latency to levels that are comparable to the T cell activator phytohemagglutinin. RNA sequencing and mechanistic data suggested that reactivation may occur through activation of the activator protein 1 signaling pathway. Stored samples from a prior clinical trial aimed at analyzing the effect of alendronate on bone mineral density, provided further of alendronate-mediated latency reversal and activation of immune effector cells.Decay of the reservoir measured by IPDA was however not detected. Our results demonstrate the novel use of aminobisphosphonates to reverse HIV-1 latency while inducing immune effector functions. This preliminary evidence merits further investigation in a controlled clinical setting possibly in combination with therapeutic vaccination.
