Project description:Rapid and dynamically shifting protein-protein interactions (PPIs) underlie the capacity of cells to recognize viral infections and ignite the downstream cascades that constitute the innate-immune response. Herpesviruses share an ancient history of coevolution with their hosts and have developed reciprocal methods to suppress or hijack immune response proteins — underscoring the biological complexity of host-pathogen interactions during the immune response. Accordingly, conventional approaches to studying PPIs downstream of innate immune sensing fail to capture both the global scope and the dynamic on-off behavior of protein complexes as they are altered throughout cellular space and time. To overcome this barrier, we have applied Thermal Proteome Profiling Mass Spectrometry (TPP-MS) to systemically characterize PPIs that coordinate the innate-immune response to Herpes Simplex Virus 1 (HSV-1) infection in primary human fibroblasts. Further, by advancing the power of thermal protein co ggregation analysis (TPCA) to infer associations de novo and to globally track these PPIs, we developed a time-resolved portrait of cellular and viral protein associations with IFI16, a nuclear DNA sensor that serves as a central platform for HSV-1 immune responses. Our TPCA analysis, along with high-resolution microscopy and molecular virological techniques, linked IFI16 sensing of viral DNA in the nuclear periphery to the master DNA damage response (DDR) regulatory kinase, DNA-PK — the activation of which we show to be necessary for the antiviral and inflammatory responses to infection. Finally, phospho-peptide enrichment and MS analysis of DNA-PK substrates revealed IFI16 to be targeted by DNA-PK after both DNA damage and viral infection. Functional analysis of this DDR-dependent IFI16 phosphorylation revealed the specific modified residue required for IFI16-driven cytokine responses. Altogether, our study represents the first systems-wide characterization of the global dynamics of PPIs during HSV-1 infection and uncovers a missing link in the immune signaling pathway that places IFI16 and DNA-PK at the center of herpesvirus innate immunity.

Project description:Oxidative DNA damage in neurons activates a DNA damage response (DDR) to promote repair. Under a chronic oxidative environment these processes may be altered and promote accumulation of unrepaired DNA damage and continued activation of a DDR, leading to apoptosis or senescence activation. Accumulation of oxidative DNA damage are features of brain ageing and neurodegeneration but the effects of persistent DNA damage in neurons are not well characterised. We developed a model of persistent oxidative DNA damage in human neurons in vitro (LUHMES) by exposing them to a sub-lethal concentration of hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) following a "single stress" and “double stress” protocols. We characterised the neuronal transcriptome under these circumstances using microarray analysis.

Project description:Lentiviral accessory genes enhance replication through diverse mechanisms. HIV-1 accessory protein Vpr modulates the host DNA damage response (DDR) at multiple steps through DNA damage, cell cycle arrest, the degradation of host proteins, and both the activation and repression of DDR signaling. Vpr also alters host and viral transcription; however, the connection between Vpr-mediated DDR modulation and transcriptional activation remains unclear. Here, we determined the cellular consequences of Vpr-induced DNA damage using Vpr mutants that allow us to separate the ability of Vpr to induce DNA damage from cell cycle arrest and other DDR phenotypes including host protein degradation and repression of DDR. RNA-sequencing of cells expressing Vpr or Vpr mutants identified that Vpr alters cellular transcription through mechanisms both dependent and independent of cell cycle arrest. In tissue-cultured U2OS cells and primary human monocyte-derived macrophages (MDMs), Vpr-induced DNA damage activates the ATM-NEMO pathway and alters cellular transcription via NF-κB/RelA signaling. HIV-1 infection of primary MDMs validated Vpr-dependent NF-κB transcriptional activation during infection. Both virion delivered and de novo expressed Vpr induced DNA damage and activated ATM-NEMO dependent NF-κB transcription, suggesting that engagement of the DDR and transcriptional reprogramming can occur during early and late stages of viral replication. Together, our data identifies a mechanism by which Vpr activates NF-κB through DNA damage and the ATM-NEMO pathway, which occur independent of cell cycle arrest. We propose this is essential to overcoming restrictive environments, such as in macrophages, to enhance viral transcription and replication.

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.

Project description:Angela Reynolds, Jonathan Rubin, Gilles Clermont, Judy Day, Yoram Vodovotz & G. Bard Ermentrout. A reduced mathematical model of the acute inflammatory response: I. Derivation of model and analysis of anti-inflammation. Journal of Theoretical Biology 242, 1 (2006).
The acute inflammatory response, triggered by a variety of biological or physical stresses on an organism, is a delicate system of checks and balances that, although aimed at promoting healing and restoring homeostasis, can result in undesired and occasionally lethal physiological responses. In this work, we derive a reduced conceptual model for the acute inflammatory response to infection, built up from consideration of direct interactions of fundamental effectors. We harness this model to explore the importance of dynamic anti-inflammation in promoting resolution of infection and homeostasis. Further, we offer a clinical correlation between model predictions and potential therapeutic interventions based on modulation of immunity by anti-inflammatory agents.

Project description:Progressive attrition of telomeres triggers DNA damage response (DDR) and limits the regenerative capacity of adult stem cells during mammalian aging. Intriguingly, the telomere integrity is not only determined by telomere length but also by epigenetic status of telomeric/sub-telomeric regions. However, the functional interplay between telomere shortening-induced DDR and epigenetic modification in aging is unknown. Here we show that deletion of Gadd45a improves the maintenance and function of intestinal stem cells (ISCs), and prolongs lifespan of late generation of telomerase deficient mice (G3Terc-/-). Mechanistically, Gadd45a facilitates the generation of a permissive chromatin status for DDR signaling transduction through the demethylating of CpG islands specifically at sub-telomeric regions of short telomeres. Deletion of Gadd45a restores the heterochromatin compaction in the sub-telomeric regions and thereby ameliorating the DDR initiation at short telomeres of G3Terc-/- ISCs. Treatment with a small molecule inhibitor of BER alleviates DDR and improves the maintenance and function of G3Terc-/- ISCs. Taken together, our study discloses a potential therapeutic approach to enhance stem cell function and prolong lifespan by targeting epigenetic modulating molecules.
