Exploration of human lung resident immunity and response to respiratory viral infection in a humanized mouse model

ABSTRACT: There is an urgent need for humanized mouse models of viral respiratory diseases to study immunopathogenesis and therapeutic interventions. Although mice with a functional human immune system (HIS) permit analysis in real time of human immune responses in vivo, evolutionary divergences preclude their usefulness for studies of respiratory viruses that do not infect mouse lungs. Here, we sought to use HIS mice with human lung tissue xenografts (referred to as HISL mice) to address this issue. The grafted human lung tissue was found survived for over 30 weeks, maintained histologically normal structure, and populated with human tissue-resident immune cells, including CD11c+ DCs and CD4+ and CD8+ tissue-resident memory T cells (TRMs). HISL mice showed a marked expansion of TRMs and generation of viral antigen-specific T cells in the human lung xenografts, and production of antiviral IgM and class-switched IgG antibodies upon infection of the human lung xenograft by H1N1 influenza viruses. RNA-seq analysis on H1N1-infected and control human lung xenografts identified a total of 5089 differentially expressed genes (DEGs) with enrichments for genes involved in respiratory tract and lung diseases, viral infections and associated immune responses. Furthermore, prophylactic viral exposures resulted in protection against subsequent lethal challenge by intranasal viral inoculation, leading to reduced disease severity and mortality. This study supports the usefulness of this preclinical model in exploring the immunopathology and therapies of respiratory viral diseases.

Project description:Background: Pandemic H1N1 influenza A is a newly emerging strain of human influenza that is easily transmitted between people and has spread globally to over 116 countries. Human infection leads to symptoms ranging from mild to severe with lower respiratory complications observed in a small but significant number of infected individuals. Little is currently known about host immunity and Pandemic H1N1 influenza infections. Methods: We examined the pathogenic potential of the pandemic influenza A vaccine strain, A/California/07/2009 (H1N1), in ferrets, and characterized the host immune responses using microarray analysis. Gene expression profiles in lung tissue were compared with those from ferrets infected with A/Brisbane/59/2007. Results: Chemokines CCL2, CCL8, CXCL7 and CXCL10 along with the majority of ISGs were expressed early, correlated to lung pathology, and abruptly decreased expression in 5 days. Interestingly, the drop in innate immune gene expression was replaced by a significant increase in the expression of the adaptive immune genes for granzymes and immunoglobulins. Serum anti-pandemic influenza H1N1 antibodies were also observed on day 7, commensurate with the elimination of viral load. Conclusions: We propose that the innate phase of host immunity causes lung pathology and a delay or failure to effectively switch to the adaptive phase contributes to morbidity and mortality during severe human pandemic H1N1 influenza A infections. Keywords: influenza, immune response, cytokines, chemokines, lung infection, time course In the experiment with influenza A/California/07/2009 (H1N1),15 ferrets were randomly allocated to 5 groups: Day 0 (before infection), and Day 3, 5, 7 and 14 (post infection) with 3 biological replicates for each group. Likewise, a second experiment with A/Brisbane/59/2007 (H1N1) was carried out using the same experimental groups, except for a group in Day 2, instead Day 3. Ferrets were euthanized and lung tissue was excised for RNA purification on the scheduled date. The subsequent gene expression analysis was performed with Affymetrix GeneChip Canine Genome 2.0 Array. Day 0 groups were used as control.

Project description:Fribourg2014 - Dynamics of viral antagonism and innate immune response (H1N1 influenza A virus - NC/99) The dynamics of the interplay between the viral antagonism and the innate immune response has been studied using modelling approaches. The responses of human monocyte-derived dendritic cells infected by two influenza A H1N1 strains (the pandemic swine-origin A/California/4/2009 (Cal/09) and the seasonal A/New Caledonia/20/1999 (NC/99)) that have different clinical outcomes have been modelled. From the time course gene expression measurements of a set of selected genes, the dynamic features of viral antagonism and innate immune response are extracted. It is found that the strength and the time scale of action of viral antagonism is significantly different between the two viruses. This model describes the viral infection by seasonal NC/99. This model is described in the article: Model of influenza A virus infection: Dynamics of viral antagonism and innate immune response. Fribourg M, Hartmann B, Schmolke M, Marjanovic N, Albrecht RA, García-Sastre A, Sealfon SC, Jayaprakash C, Hayot F. J Theor Biol. 2014 Mar 2;351C:47-57. Abstract: Viral antagonism of host responses is an essential component of virus pathogenicity. The study of the interplay between immune response and viral antagonism is challenging due to the involvement of many processes acting at multiple time scales. Here we develop an ordinary differential equation model to investigate the early, experimentally measured, responses of human monocyte-derived dendritic cells to infection by two H1N1 influenza A viruses of different clinical outcomes: pandemic A/California/4/2009 and seasonal A/New Caledonia/20/1999. Our results reveal how the strength of virus antagonism, and the time scale over which it acts to thwart the innate immune response, differs significantly between the two viruses, as is made clear by their impact on the temporal behavior of a number of measured genes. The model thus sheds light on the mechanisms that underlie the variability of innate immune responses to different H1N1 viruses.
