Project description:HCV+ cells were detected by smiFISH on liver section of a patient with hepatocellular carcinoma. Clusters of HCV+ and HCV- cells were captured by laser microdissection and transriptomes analysed by RNA sequening. Highly sensitive single molecule fluorescent in situ hybridization applied to frozen tissue sections of a hepatitis C patient allowed the delineation of clusters of infected hepatocytes. Laser micro-dissection followed by RNAseq analysis of HCV-positive and -negative regions from the tumoral and non-tumoral tissues from the same patient revealed HCV-related deregulation of expression of genes in the tumor and in the non-tumoral tissue.

Project description:Hepatitis C Virus (HCV) core protein plays a major role in HCV mediated liver pathologies. We have previously reported that HCV core variants isolated from tumoral (T) and non-tumoral (NT) livers were capable to alleviate Smad transcriptional activity and to shift TGF-β responses from tumor suppressor effects to tumor promotion. To comprehensively appreciate the consequences of core-mediated deregulation of Smad signaling on TGF-b target gene expression, Affimetrix microarrays were performed. Microarray analyses demonstrate that HCV core expression in hepatocytes modulates TGF-b target gene expression. Furthermore, most of the genes modulated in core expressing hepatocytes after TGF-b treatment were already regulated in these non treated cells suggesting that HCV core is capable to activate latent TGF-b. Transcriptome analysis was performed on primary hepatocytes from transgenic mice expressing either Core T or core NT or their control littermates treated or not with TGF-b.

Project description:Human hepatocyte chimeric mice were prepared and treated with hepatitis C virus (HCV) and/or interferon-alpha (IFN-α). To analyze the changes in gene expression, cDNA microarray analysis was performed with the collected human hepatocytes from the chimeric mouse livers. We consider that these results provide molecular insights into possible mechanisms used by HCV to evade innate immune responses, as well as novel therapeutic targets and a potential new indication for interferon therapy. A total of 15 human hepatocyte chimeric mice were prepared and divided into four experimental groups. Mice in group A were neither infected with HCV nor treated with IFN. Mice in group B were administered IFN-α 6 h before sacrifice but were not infected with HCV. The mice in groups C and D were both inoculated via the mouse tail vein with human serum containing HCV genotype 1b particles. At 8 weeks after inoculation, the mice in group D were administered IFN-α 6 h before sacrifice, but the mice in group C were not treated with IFN-α. The human hepatocytes in the mouse livers were collected after sacrifice and subjected to microarray analysis. After purification and reverse transcription of total RNA, cDNA was hybridized on Affymetrix GeneChip Human Gene U133 Plus 2.0 Arrays.

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 JFHA, and IL28b respectively with three biological replication.

Project description:Transcriptional profiling provides global snapshots of virus-mediated cellular reprogramming, which can simultaneously encompass pro- and antiviral components. To determine early transcriptional signatures associated with HCV infection of authentic target cells, we performed ex vivo infections of adult primary human hepatocytes (PHHs) from seven donors. Coordinated sampling identified minimal gene dysregulation at six hours post infection (hpi) in PHHs. In contrast, at 72 hpi, massive increases in the breadth and magnitude of HCV-induced gene dysregulation were apparent, affecting gene classes associated with diverse biological processes. Comparison with HCV-induced transcriptional dysregulation in Huh-7.5 cells identified limited overlap between the two systems. Of note, in PHHs, HCV infection initiated broad upregulation of canonical interferon (IFN)-mediated defense programs, limiting viral RNA replication and abrogating virion release. In addition, we confirm that constitutive expression of IRF1 in PHHs maintains a steady-state antiviral program in the absence of infection which can further reduce HCV RNA replication. We also detected infection-induced signatures of translational shutoff in PHHs - downregulation of ~90 genes encoding components of the EIF2 translation initiation complex and ribosomal subunits. As HCV polyprotein translation occurs independently of the EIF2 complex, this process is pro-viral: only translation initiation of host transcripts is arrested. The combination of antiviral intrinsic and inducible immunity, balanced against pro-viral programs, including translational arrest, maintains HCV replication at a low-level in PHHs. This may ultimately keep HCV under the radar of extra-hepatocyte immune surveillance while initial infection is established, promoting tolerance, preventing clearance and facilitating progression to chronicity.
