MAVS signaling is required for preventing persistent chikungunya heart infection and chronic vascular tissue inflammation

ABSTRACT: Chikungunya virus (CHIKV) infection has been associated with severe cardiac manifestations. However, how CHIKV infection leads to heart disease remains unknown. Here, using C57BL/6 mice we show that cardiac fibroblasts are the main target of CHIKV infection in the heart, and that cardiac tissue infection induces activation of the type I interferon (IFN-I) pathway in both infected and non-infected cardiac cells. The loss of IFN-I signaling results in increased CHIKV infection, virus spreading, and apoptosis in cardiac tissue. Importantly, signaling through the mitochondrial antiviral-signaling protein (MAVS) is essential for efficient CHIKV clearance from the heart. Indeed, persistent infection in cardiac tissue of MAVS-deficient mice leads to cardiac damage characterized by focal myocarditis and major vessel vasculitis. This study provides mechanistic insight on how CHIKV can lead to cardiac damage, underscoring the importance of monitoring cardiac function in patients with CHIKV infections.

Chikungunya Virus Time Course Infection of Human Macrophages

Project description:Human monocyte-derived macrophage cells were infected with Chikungunya virus (CHIKV) to identify and quantify intracellular transcriptional changes that contribute to the host response to infection with CHIKV. RNA was collected from these cells at 8 and 24 hours post-infection (hpi) and were compared to mock-infected cells. The RNAseq data was then analyzed to determine the genes, functions, and signaling pathways that were significantly affected in an effort to predict existing drugs that could be repurposed as potential therapeutics for CHIKV.

Targeting APT2 improves MAVS palmitoylation and antiviral innate immunity

Project description:Innate immunity serves as the primary defense against viral and microbial infections in humans. Among its components, retinoic acid-inducible gene I (RIG-I)-like receptors (RLRs) are well-characterized intracellular pattern-recognition proteins that trigger innate immune responses upon viral infection. However, the precise influence of cellular metabolites, especially fatty acids, on the regulation of RLR-mediated antiviral innate immunity remains largely elusive. Here, through screening a metabolite library, palmitic acid (PA) has been identified as a crucial metabolite responsible for modulating antiviral infections. Mechanistically, PA induces the palmitoylation of MAVS, leading to MAVS aggregation and subsequent activation, thereby enhancing the innate immune response against viral infections. Functionally, the enzyme palmitoyl-transferase ZDHHC24 plays a key role in catalyzing the palmitoylation of MAVS at both C46 and C79 residues, thereby facilitating the transduction of RLR-mediated TBK1-IRF3-IFN signaling pathway, particularly under conditions of PA stimulation or high-fat diet feeding. Conversely, the absence of ZDHHC24 significantly attenuates virus-induced innate immune responses in both cells and mice. Moreover, APT2 counteracts with ZDHHC24 to de-palmitoylate MAVS, thus inhibiting the antiviral response. Consequently, inhibition of APT2 using compounds like ML349 effectively reverses MAVS palmitoylation and activation in response to antiviral infections. These findings underscore the critical role of PA and ZDHHC24 in regulating antiviral innate immunity through MAVS palmitoylation, and suggest potential therapeutic strategies for combating viral infections, such as enhancing PA intake or specifically targeting APT2.

CPT1A induction following epigenetic perturbation promotes MAVS palmitoylation and activation to potentiate antitumor immunity

Project description:argeting epigenetic regulators to potentiate anti-PD-1 immunotherapy converges on the activation of type I interferon (IFN-I) response, mimicking cellular response to viral infection, but how its strength and duration are regulated to impact combination therapy efficacy remains largely unknown. Here, we show that mitochondrial CPT1A downregulation following viral infection restrains, while its induction by epigenetic perturbations sustains, a double-stranded RNA-activated IFN-I response. Mechanistically, CPT1A recruits the endoplasmic reticulum-localized ZDHHC4 to catalyze MAVS Cys79-palmitoylation, which promotes MAVS stabilization and activation by inhibiting K48- but facilitating K63-linked ubiquitination. Further elevation of CPT1A incrementally increases MAVS palmitoylation and amplifies the IFN-I response, which enhances control of viral infection and epigenetic perturbation-induced antitumor immunity. Moreover, CPT1A chemical inducers augment the therapeutic effect of combined epigenetic treatment with PD-1 blockade in refractory tumors. Our study identifies CPT1A as a stabilizer of MAVS activation, and its link to epigenetic perturbation can be exploited for cancer immunotherapy.

MAVI1, an Endoplasmic Reticulum-localized Microprotein, Suppresses Antiviral Innate Immune Response by Targeting MAVS on Mitochondrion

Project description:Pattern recognition receptors (PRRs)-mediated innate immune responses are critical for host defense against microbial pathogens including RNA/DNA viruses. A growing number of coding genes and genes originally defined as non-coding RNAs (ncRNAs) are found to encode short peptides or proteins, named microproteins. However, the landscape of microproteins in responsive to virus infection and the functions of these microproteins remain uncharacterized. Here, we systematically identified microproteins, both from coding and non-coding genes, that are responsive to Vesicular Stomatitis Virus (VSV) infection. Among which, a highly conserved, endoplasmic reticulum (ER) membrane-localized microprotein, , MAVI1 (microprotein in antiviral immunity 1), was found to interact with mitochondrial localized MAVS protein, inhibiting the aggregation of MAVS and the activation of downstream type I interferon (IFN) signaling pathway. The critical role of MAVI1 was highlighted that viral infection was significantly attenuated and survival rate was significantly increased in Mavi1 knockout mice in vivo. A peptide inhibitor targeting the interaction between MAVI1 and MAVS is potent in activating the type I IFN signaling and defending viral infection both in vitro and in vivo. Our findings uncovered that microproteins could play critical roles in regulating antiviral innate immune responses via cross-organelle interaction, and targeting microproteins might represent a potential therapeutic avenue for treating viral infection in clinic.

Noncanonical MAVS signaling restrains dendritic cell-driven antitumor immunity by inhibiting IL-12

Project description:MAVS-mediated cytosolic RNA sensing plays a central role in tumor immunogenicity. However, the effects of host MAVS signaling on antitumor immunity remains uncertain. Here, we demonstrate that host MAVS pathway drives accelerated tumor growth and impairs antitumor immunity, while MAVS knockout in dendritic cells (DCs) promotes tumor-reactive CD8+ T cell responses. Specifically, the CD8+ T cell priming capacity is enhanced by lack of functional MAVS in a type I interferon-independent, but IL-12-dependent, manner. Mechanistically, loss of RIG-I/MAVS cascade activates non-canonical NF-κB pathway and in turn induces IL-12 production by DCs, resulting in CD8+ T cell: DC crosstalk licensed by IFN-γ and IL-12. Moreover, ablation of host MAVS sensitizes tumors to immunotherapy and attenuates radiation resistance, thereby facilitating the maintenance of effector CD8+ T cells. These findings identify that host MAVS pathway acts as an immune checkpoint of DC-driven antitumor immunity, indicating the development of DC-based immunotherapies through MAVS signaling antagonism.

A systems approach reveals MAVS signaling in myeloid cells as critical in resistance to Ebola virus in murine models of infection

Project description:The unprecedented 2013-16 outbreak of Ebola virus (EBOV) in West Africa resulted in over 11,300 human deaths. Host resistance to EBOV is thought to involve RIG-I-like receptor (RLR) signaling through the adaptor protein, mitochondrial antiviral signaling (MAVS), but role of RLR-MAVS in orchestrating anti-EBOV responses in vivo is not known. Here, we apply a systems approach to MAVS-deficient mice infected with either wild-type or mouse-adapted EBOV. MAVS controlled EBOV replication through expression of IFNα, IFN-stimulated genes, and regulation of inflammatory responses in the spleen, and prevented cell death in the liver, with macrophages implicated as a major cell-type influencing host resistance. A dominant role for RLR signaling in macrophages was confirmed following conditional deletion of MAVS in LysM+ myeloid cells. These findings reveal tissue-specific transcriptional pathways controlled by RLR signaling in resistance to EBOV, and suggest that EBOV adaptation to cause disease in mice is linked in part to increased antagonism of RLR-dependent signaling.
