HCMV-UV and SeV-UV infection of IFNAR KO and wildtype human fibroblasts

ABSTRACT: Type 1 interferon (IFN) plays a critical role in early antiviral defense and priming of adaptive immunity by signalling upregulation of host antiviral interferon-stimulated genes (ISGs). Certain stimuli trigger strong activation of IFN regulatory factor 3 (IRF3) and direct upregulation of ISGs in addition to IFN. It remains unclear why some stimuli are stronger activators of IRF3 and how this leads to IFN-independent antiviral protection. We found that UV-inactivated human cytomegalovirus (HCMV) particles triggered an IFN-independent ISG signature that was absent in cells infected with UV-inactivated Sendai virus (SeV) particles. HCMV particles triggered mostly uniform activation of IRF3 and low-level IFN-? production within the population while SeV particles triggered a small fraction of cells producing abundant IFN-?. These findings suggest that population level activation of IRF3 and antiviral protection emerges from a diversity of responses occurring simultaneously in single cells. Moreover, this occurs in the absence of virus replication.

Exercise Activates Interferon Immune Response of the Liver via Gpld1 to Enhance Antiviral Innate Immunity

Project description:<p>Healthy behavioral patterns could modulate organ functions to enhance the body’s immunity. However, whether exercise regulates antiviral innate immunity remains elusive. Here, we found that exercise promotes type-I IFN (IFN-I) production in the liver and enhances IFN-I immune activity of the body. Despite the possibility that many exercise-induced factors could regulate IFN-I production, we identified Gpld1 as a crucial molecule and the liver as the major organ to promote IFN-I production after exercise. Exercise largely loses the efficiency to induce IFN-I in Gpld1-/- mice. Further studies demonstrated that exercise-produced 3-hydroxybutanoic acid (3-HB) critically induces Gpld1 expression in the liver. Gpld1 blocks the PP2A-IRF3 interaction and therefore enhances IRF3 activation and IFN-I production, and improves the body’s antiviral ability. This study reveals that the exercise behavior improves antiviral innate immunity by linking the liver metabolism to systemic IFN-I activity, and uncovers an unknown function of liver cells in innate immunity.</p>

m6A mRNA methylation controls the innate immune response to infection by targeting interferon β

Project description:N6-methyladenosine (m6A), the most abundant mRNA modification, was shown to alter the life cycles of diverse DNA and RNA viruses. These effects were proposed to be mediated in a virus-specific manner, through dysregulated methylation of viral RNA. We use RNA-seq to systematically follow differences in gene expression in cells depleted of m6A machinery, compared to control cells, following human cytomegalovirus (HCMV) infection. We show that following viral infection or stimulation of cells with an inactivated virus, depletion of the m6A 'writer' protein METTL3 or 'reader' protein YTHDF2 leads to a dramatic increase in the induction of hundreds of interferon-stimulated genes (ISGs), which constitutes the first line of antiviral defense. Consequently, propagation of different viruses is markedly suppressed in an interferon (IFN)-signaling dependent manner. Furthermore, we used m6A-immunoprecipitation, followed by RNA-seq, to map m6A sites on human and HCMV transcripts, and found that the mRNA of IFNβ, the central cytokine that drives the type I IFN response, is m6A modified, and is stabilized upon repression of METTL3 and YTHDF2.

AXIN1 boosts antiviral response through IRF3 stabilization and induced phase separation

Project description:Axis inhibition protein 1 (AXIN), a scaffold protein interacting with various critical molecules, plays a vital role in determining cell fate. However, its impact on the antiviral innate immune response remains largely unknown. Here, we identify AXIN acts as an effective regulator of antiviral innate immunity against both DNA and RNA virus infections. In the resting state, AXIN maintains the stability of IRF3 by preventing p62-mediated autophagic degradation of IRF3. This is achieved by recruiting ubiquitin-specific peptidase 35 (USP35), which removes lysine (K) 48-linked ubiquitination at IRF3 K366. Upon virus infection, AXIN undergoes a phase separation triggered by phosphorylated TBK1. This leads to increased phosphorylation of IRF3 and a boost in IFN-I production. Moreover, KYA1797K, a small molecule that binds to the AXIN RGS domain, enhances the AXIN-IRF3 interaction and promotes the elimination of various highly pathogenic viruses. Clinically, patients with HBV-associated hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) who show reduced AXIN expression in pericarcinoma tissues have low overall and disease-free survival rates, as well as higher HBV levels in their blood. Overall, our findings reveal how AXIN regulates IRF3 signaling and phase separation-mediated antiviral immune responses, underscoring the potential of the AXIN agonist KYA1797K as an effective antiviral agent.

IL-1B signaling in dendritic cells induces antiviral interferon responses

Project description:Activation of interferon-stimulated gene (ISG) responses is critical for control of viral infection. We recently identified that stimulation of the NLRP3 inflammasome and mobilization of the inflammatory cytokine IL-1β act as critical host restrictive pathways against West Nile virus (WNV) in a mechanism dependent on the regulation of ISGs. In order to define the mechanism by which IL-1β regulates these antiviral immune programs, we utilized global transcriptome analysis in myeloid cells, known targets of WNV replication to define gene signatures required for IL-1β driven antiviral responses. Surprisingly, we found IL-1β dependent activation of interferon-beta (IFN-β) and ISGs at late times following IL-1β treatment. Expression of these antiviral innate immune genes was found to be dependent on activation of IRF3 and appears to reflect a general shift in IL-1β signaling from an inflammatory response early following treatment to an anti-inflammatory type-I IFN mediated response at later times post-treatment. These data demonstrate that inflammatory and antiviral signals integrate to control viral infection. Strategies to co-opt these cytokine activated antiviral signatures can act as novel targeted therapeutic strategies tailored specifically to individual pathogens.

Chromatin remodeler ARID1A binds IRF3 to selectively induce antiviral interferon production in macrophages

Project description:Transcription factor IRF3 is critical for the induction of antiviral type I interferon (IFN-I). The epigenetic regulation of IFN-I production in antiviral innate immunity need to be further identified. Here, we report that epigenetic remodeler ARID1A, a critical component of the mSWI/SNF complex, could bind IRF3 and then was recruited to the Ifn-I promoter by IRF3, thus selectively promoting IFN-I but not TNF-α, IL-6 production in macrophages upon viral infection. Myeloid cell-specific deficiency of Arid1a rendered mice more susceptible to viral infection, accompanied with less IFN-I production. Mechanistically, ARID1A facilitates chromatin accessibility of IRF3 at the Ifn-I promoter by interacting with histone methyltransferase NSD2, which methylates H3K4 and H3K36 of promoter region. Our findings demonstrate the new roles of ARID1A and NSD2 in innate immunity, providing insight to the crosstalks of chromatin remodeling, histone modification and transcription factor in the epigenetic regulation of antiviral innate immunity.

Primary human hepatocytes treated with IFNalpha and IL28B

Project description:Recent identification of IL28B gene polymorphisms associated with hepatitis C virus (HCV) clearance suggests a role for type III interferons (IFNs) in hepatitis C infection. The function of type III IFNs in intrinsic antiviral immunity is poorly understood. Here we show that HCV infection of primary human hepatocytes results in a robust induction of type III but not type I IFNs, leading to IFN- stimulated gene (ISG) expression. In addition, HCV infection elicits a much broader range of gene expression alterations in addition to ISG induction. The induction of type III IFNs is mediated by IRF3 and NFkB- dependent pathways. Type III IFN, aside from upregulating ISGs with a different kinetic profile, induces a distinct set of genes from type I IFN, potentially explaining the functional difference between the two types of IFNs. Chimpanzees undergoing experimental HCV infection demonstrated a prompt hepatic induction of IL28, associating with ISG upregulation, but minimal type I IFN induction. Analysis of liver biopsies from HCV-infected patients supported a close correlation among hepatic expression of IL28 and ISGs, but not with type I IFNs. Our study demonstrates that HCV infection results predominantly in type III IFN induction in the liver and the level of induction correlates with hepatic ISG levels, thus providing a mechanistic explanation for the association between IL28, ISG levels and recovery from HCV infection as well as a potential therapeutic strategy for the treatment of non-responders. Samples were treated with IFN, IL28b and T-PolyC after 6 or 24 hours respectively

The Adenovirus E1A C Terminus Suppresses a Delayed Antiviral Response and Modulates RAS Signaling [IRF3_ChIP]

Project description:The N-terminal half of adenovirus e1a assembles multimeric complexes with host proteins that repress innate immune responses and force host cells into S-phase. In contrast, the functions of e1a's C-terminal interactions with FOXK, DCAF7, and CtBP are unknown. We found that these interactions modulate RAS signaling, and that a single e1a molecule must bind all three of these host proteins to suppress activation of a subset of IFN-stimulated genes (ISGs). These ISGs were otherwise induced in primary respiratory epithelial cells at 12 hr p.i. This delayed activation of ISGs required IRF3 and coincided with an ∼10-fold increase in IRF3 from protein stabilization. The induced IRF3 bound to chromatin and localized to the promoters of activated ISGs. While IRF3, STAT1/2, and IRF9 all greatly increased in concentration, there were no corresponding mRNA increases, suggesting that e1a regulates the stabilities of these key activators of innate immune responses, as shown directly for IRF3.
