Project description:The objective of this study is to characterize the response to newly emerged, highly pathogenic H7N9 influenza virus isolated from human patients in 2013 in China. This study examines the pathogenesis of H7N9 influenza in cynomolgus macaques. The study compares lung lesions to adjacent right lower lobe lung tissue in animals necropsied at days 3 and 6 post-infection (n=4 animals/timepoint). 3-4 lesions from each animal were collected and equal amounts of pooled RNA from lesions from individual animals at each time point were used for microarray. 8 cynomolgus macaques were infected via oral, intraocular, intranasal, and intratracheal administration of a combined total of 7x10^6 TCID50. Lungs, lung lesions, and trachea samples were collected from serial sacrifices of 4 animals each at day 3 and day 6. Infection produced a moderate-severe, self-limiting respiratory infection, and was not lethal. We performed microarray analysis (using Agilent Rhesus arrays) on all lungs, lung lesions, and trachea collected for the study.

Project description:To clarify the underlying mechanism that regulates the response of iron metabolism to influenza A virus infection, we analyzed gene expression profiles in mouse, bone marrow-derived macrophages (BMDMs) infected with H7N9 virus. In addition, We also analysed the chemokine, inflammation, innate-immunity, lipid-metabolism, transcription mRNA level by micrroarray. So, we gain the global transcriptional response in the BMDMs of mice infected with H7N9 virus.

Project description:In June 2009, the World Health Organization declared the first influenza pandemic of the 21st century, due to the emergence and rapid spread of new swine origin H1N1 influenza A virus. In contrast to seasonal influenza infections, which typically cause morbidity and mortality in the elderly, this virus caused severe infection in young adults and not the elderly. This phenomenon was attributed to the presence of cross-neutralizing antibodies acquired by older individuals from previous exposure to swine origin influenza. However, this hypothesis could not be empirically tested using clinical data. To address this question, we investigated viral replication and the development of the immune response in naï12 years old) and aged (20 to 24 years old) female rhesus macaques infected with A/California/04/2009 (H1N1), one of the circulating pandemic strains in 2009. We compared viral loads as well as the kinetics and magnitude of the adaptive immune response in peripheral blood and bronchoalveolar lavage samples (BAL) collected longitudinally for 99 days post-infection. Although, adult animals exhibited earlier T cell responses in peripheral blood, aged animals generated a robust T cell response with comparable kinetics and magnitude as those observed in young animals in BAL. Moreover, aged animals generated a higher hemagglutination inhibition titer compared to young animals. We also measured the concentration of several cytokines in BAL supernatant. With the exception of IL-8, which was higher in aged animals, we found no differences in IFNa, IFNb, TNFa, IL-1r, IL-6, IL-15, IL-17, or MCP1 levels. Finally, we compared gene expression infection using microarray analysis of BAL samples taken on days 0, 4, 7, 10, and 14 pi. Our analyses revealed that the largest difference in host response between aged and young animals was detected day 4 post-infection, with significant enrichment for genes associated with inflammation, the innate immune response, and T cell activation in aged animals. The ability of aged animals to generate a robust immune response, especially antibody response, following infection with 2009 H1N1 virus could explain the lack of morbidity normally observed with seasonal influenza viruses in this vulnerable population.

Animals were infected with A/California/04/ 2009 H1N1 using a combinatory of intra-tracheal (4ml), intranasal (0.5 ml/nostril), and conjunctival (0.5 ml/eyelid) routes for a total dose of 7x106 TCID50 dose. Microarray analysis was performed on Bronchoalveolar lavage (BAL) samples collected on days 0, 4, 7, 10 and 14. Note: One of the Day 0 array did not pass QC metrics so for this animal the average of the other Day 0 samples from that group was utilized. At the end of the study animals were released back to the colony.

Project description:While the seroprevalence of SARS-CoV-2 in healthy people does not differ significantly among age groups, those aged 65 years or older exhibit strikingly higher COVID-19 mortality compared to younger individuals. To further understand differing COVID-19 manifestations in patients of different ages, three age groups of ferrets are infected with SARS-CoV-2. Although SARS-CoV-2 is isolated from all ferrets regardless of age, aged ferrets (≥3 years old) shows higher viral loads, longer nasal virus shedding, and more severe lung inflammatory cell infiltration and clinical symptoms compared to juvenile (≤6 months) and young adult (1-2 years) groups. Furthermore, direct contact ferrets co-housed with the virus-infected aged group shed more virus than direct-contact ferrets co-housed with virus-infected juvenile or young adult ferrets. Transcriptome analysis of aged ferret lungs reveals strong enrichment of gene sets related to type I interferon, activated T cells, and M1 macrophage responses, mimicking the gene expression profile of severe COVID-19 patients. Thus, SARS-CoV-2-infected aged ferrets highly recapitulate COVID-19 patients with severe symptoms and are useful for understanding age-associated infection, transmission, and pathogenesis of SARS-CoV-2.

Project description:Impaired immunometabolic response in the elderly regulates inflammation-driven COVID-19 severity which confers the greatest risk of mortality. To investigate how aging compromises defense against COVID-19, we developed a model of natural murine beta coronavirus (mCoV) infection with mouse hepatitis virus strain A59 (mCoV-A59) that recapitulated majority of hallmarks of COVID-19. Aged mCoV-A59-infected mice have increased mortality and higher systemic inflammation in the heart, adipose tissue and hypothalamus, including neutrophilia and loss of γδ T cells in lungs. Ketogenic diet increases beta-hydroxybutyrate, expands tissue protective γδ T cells, deactivates the inflammasome and decreases pathogenic monocytes in lungs during aging. These data underscore the value of mCoV-A59 model to test mechanism and establishes harnessing of ketogenic immunometabolic checkpoint as potential treatment against COVID-19 in the elderly.

Project description:In order to elucidate the expression changes of host genes of SPF chickens infected with duck-origin H7N9 subtype avian influenza virus. The lungs of SPF chickens infected with duck-origin H7N9 subtype avian influenza virus were collected and high throughout sequenced. Compared with the control group, there were 740 differentially expressed genes were obtained in infection group, including 602 up-regulated genes and 138 down-regulated genes. The analysis of the GO items showed that the differentially expressed genes were involved in immune responses and inflammatory responses. The results of KEGG analysis showed that 7 pathways were enriched significantly, in those the Toll-like pathway had 11 up-regulated genes, namely IL-6, TLR4, Pik3, IRF7, MD-2, IRF5, MYD88, CD86, STAT1, TLR2, and CCL4. There were 7 up-regulated genes in NOD-like receptor signaling pathway, which were IRF7, CTSB, P2RX7, CYBB, PSTPIP1, HSP90AA1, and NAMPT. In Toll-like signaling pathway，TLR4 was activated by MD-2 after viral infection, and then activated downstream IRF5. At the same time, the NLRP3 inflammasome also played an important role in the process of H7N9 virus infection.

Project description:Transcriptomic comparison of 5 cell types during lethal and non-lethal influenza infection and further use of these signatures in a top-down systems analysis investigating the relative pathogenic contributions of direct viral damage to lung epithelium vs. dysregulated immunity during lethal influenza infection. For acutely lethal influenza infections, the relative pathogenic contributions of direct viral damage to lung epithelium vs. dysregulated immunity remain unresolved. Here, we take a top-down systems approach to this question. Multigene transcriptional signatures from infected lungs suggested that elevated activation of inflammatory signaling networks distinguished lethal from sublethal infections. Flow cytometry and gene expression analysis involving isolated cell subpopulations from infected lungs showed that neutrophil influx largely accounted for the predictive transcriptional signature. Automated imaging analysis together with these gene expression and flow data identified a chemokine-driven feed-forward circuit involving pro-inflammatory neutrophils potently driven by poorly contained lethal viruses. Consistent with these data, attenuation but not ablation of the neutrophil-driven response increased survival without changing viral spread. These findings establish the primacy of damaging innate inflammation in at least some forms of influenza-induced lethality and provide a roadmap for the systematic dissection of infection-associated pathology. Multiple mice were either sham infected, infected with the seasonal H1N1 influenza A virus TX91 (10^6PFU), or infected with various sublethal or lethal doses of the mouse pathogenic H1N1 strain PR8. Lung tissues were collected at 48h or 72h post infection. 5 different cell types were purified by flow sorting from lungs of individual animals and then processed to yield total RNA that was used for microarray analysis. The dataset contains 75 microarrays covering 25 experimental conditions with 3 biological replicates. This dataset is linked to a dataset containing 138 microarrays of whole lungs covering 20 experimental conditions.
