Transcriptome profiling of human cytomegalovirus-infected trophoblasts

ABSTRACT: Placental infection plays a central role in the pathogenesis of congenital human cytomegalovirus (HCMV) infections and is a cause of fetal growth restriction and pregnancy loss. HCMV can replicate in some trophoblast cell types, but it remains unclear how the virus evades antiviral immunity in the placenta and how infection compromises placental development and function. Human trophoblast stem cells (TSCs) can be differentiated into extravillous trophoblasts (EVTs) and syncytiotrophoblasts (STBs). This study assessed the utility of TSCs as a model of HCMV infection in the first trimester placenta. TSCs and TSC-derived EVTs and STBs were infected with HCMV (TB40/Ewt-mCherry). RNA was isolated from infected cells at 24, 48, and 72 hours post-infection and Illumina RNA-Sequencing was used to measure viral and host gene expression. Viral gene expression in TSCs does not follow the kinetic patterns observed during lytic infection in fibroblasts. Canonical antiviral responses were largely not observed in HCMV-infected TSCs and TSC-derived trophoblasts. Rather, infection dysregulated factors involved in cell identity, differentiation, and WNT signaling.

Zika virus impacts extracellular vesicle composition and cellular gene expression in macaque early gestation trophoblasts

Project description:Zika virus (ZIKV) infection at the maternal-placental interface is associated with adverse pregnancy outcomes including fetal demise and pregnancy loss. To determine how infection impacts placental trophoblasts, we utilized rhesus macaque trophoblast stem cells (TSC) that can be differentiated into early gestation syncytiotrophoblasts (ST) and extravillous trophoblasts (EVT). TSCs and STs, but not EVTs, were highly permissive to productive infection with ZIKV strain DAK AR 41524. The impact of ZIKV on the cellular transcriptome showed that infection of TSCs and STs increased expression of immune related genes, including those involved in type I and type III interferon responses. ZIKV exposure altered extracellular vesicle (EV) protein, mRNA, and miRNA cargo, regardless of productive infection. These findings suggest that early gestation macaque TSCs and STs are permissive to ZIKV infection, and that EV analysis may provide a foundation for identifying non-invasive biomarkers of placental infection in a highly translational model.

Rhesus macaque early-gestation trophoblast cells are permissive to Zika virus infection and viral exposure altered extracellular vesicle cargo

Project description:Zika virus (ZIKV) infection of maternal and placental cells at the maternal-fetal interface is associated with a spectrum of adverse pregnancy outcomes including fetal demise and pregnancy loss. Trophoblast cell types that comprise the placenta include cytotrophoblasts, syncytiotrophoblasts (STs), and extravillous trophoblasts (EVTs). To determine which trophoblast cells are permissive to ZIKV and to understand how infection impacts cellular gene expression, we utilized a macaque in vitro trophoblast stem cell (TSC) model. TSCs were derived from primary cytotrophoblasts and represent a proliferative trophoblast that can be differentiated into STs and EVTs. TSCs and ST3Ds (STs grown in suspension) were highly permissive to infection with ZIKV strain DAK AR 41524, whereas EVTs maintained a level of resistance to productive infection. The impact of ZIKV on cellular gene expression was determined by transcriptomic and miRNAome analysis. Infection of TSCs and ST3Ds results in increased expression of immune related genes, including those in the type I and type III interferon response. ZIKV exposure impacts EV protein, mRNA, and miRNA cargo, regardless of productive infection. Altogether, these findings suggest TSCs and STs of the macaque are permissive to ZIKV infection and that EV analysis has the potential to identify ZIKV infection. These findings provide a foundation for further ZIKV study and allow for potential ZIKV infection biomarker identification in a highly translational model.

Listeria monocytogenes infection alters content and function of extracellular vesicles produced by trophoblast stem cells

Project description:Placental immunity is critical for fetal health during pregnancy, as invading pathogens spread from the parental blood to the fetus through this organ. However, inflammatory responses in the placenta can adversely affect both the fetus and the pregnant person, and the balance between protective placental immune response and detrimental inflammation is poorly understood. Extracellular vesicles (EVs) are membrane-enclosed vesicles that play a critical role in placental immunity. EVs produced by placental trophoblasts mediate immune tolerance to the fetus and to the placenta itself, but these EVs can also activate detrimental inflammatory responses. The regulation of these effects is not well-characterized, and the role of trophoblast EVs (tEVs) in the response to infection has yet to be defined. The Gram-positive pathogen Listera monocytogenes (Lm) infects the placenta, serving as a model to study tEV function in this context. We investigated the effect of Lm infection on the production and function of tEVs, using a trophoblast stem cell (TSC) model. We found that tEVs from infected TSCs can induce the production of the pro-inflammatory cytokine TNF-α in recipient cells. Surprisingly, this tEV treatment could confer increased susceptibility to subsequent Lm infection, which has not previously been reported as an effect of EVs. Proteomic analysis and RNA-sequencing revealed that tEVs from infected TSCs had altered cargo compared to those from uninfected TSCs. However, no Lm proteins were detected in tEVs from infected TSCs. Together, these results suggest an immunomodulatory role for tEVs during prenatal infection.

Activation of the interferon pathway in trophoblast cells infected with SARS-CoV-2

Project description:Infection with SARS-CoV-2 in pregnancy has been associated with poor maternal and neonatal outcomes and placental defects. The placenta, which acts as a physical and immunological barrier at the maternal/fetal interface, is not established until the end of the first trimester. Therefore, localized viral infection of the trophoblast compartment early in gestation could trigger an inflammatory response resulting in altered placental function and consequent suboptimal conditions for fetal growth and development. In this study, we investigated the effect of SARS-CoV-2 infection in early gestation placentae using placenta-derived human trophoblast stem cells (TSC), a novel in vitro model, and their extra-villous trophoblast (EVT) and syncytiotrophoblast (STB) derivatives. Consistent with host viral entry protein expression, SARS-CoV-2 was able to productively replicate in TSC-derived STB and EVT but not undifferentiated TSC. Both early EVT and STB elicited an interferon-mediated innate immune response similar to other cells infected with this virus. Therefore, we have also shown that placenta derived TSCs are a robust in vitro model to investigate the effect of this viral infection in the trophoblast compartment of the early placenta. Overall, these results suggest that SARS-CoV-2 infection in early gestation can adversely affect placental development and that might occur via directly infecting the differentiated trophoblast compartment, thus posing a higher risk for poor pregnancy outcomes.

scRNA-seq and snucRNA-seq of human primary trophoblast organoids (PTO) and trophoblast stem cells (TSCs) differentiation into extravillous trophoblast organoids (EVTs)

Project description:This study aims to compare in vivo human trophoblast differentiation into EVTs to different in vitro trophoblast organoids using single-cell and single-nuclei RNA sequencing. The study includes two type of systems: human primary trophoblast organoids (PTO) and trophoblast stem cells (TSCs). Trophoblast stem cell (TSC) lines BTS5 and BTS11 derived by Okae and colleagues were grown as described previously (Okae et al. 2018) and together with EVT media. Primary trophoblast organoids (PTO) were grown and differentiated into EVT as previously described by Turco & Sheridan (Turco et al 2018; Sheridan et al 2020). This study shows that the main regulatory programs mediating EVT invasion in vivo are preserved in in vitro models of EVT differentiation from primary trophoblast organoids and trophoblast stem cells.

Gene expression profiles of trophoblast cell lines

Project description:Invasive extravillous trophoblasts (EVTs) of the human placenta are critically involved in successful pregnancy outcome since they remodel the uterine spiral arteries to increase blood flow and oxygen delivery to the placenta and the developing fetus. To gain more insights into their biological role different primary cell culture models are commonly utilised. However, access to early placental tissue may be limited and primary trophoblasts rapidly cease proliferation in vitro impairing genetic manipulation. Hence, trophoblastic cell lines have been widely used as surrogates to study EVT function. Although the cell lines share some molecular marker expression with their primary counterpart, it is unknown to what extent they recapture the invasive phenotype of EVT. Therefore, we here report the first thorough GeneChip analyses of SGHPL-5, HTR-8/SVneo, BeWo, JEG-3 and the novel ACH-3P trophoblast cells in comparison to previously analysed primary villous cytrophoblasts and extravillous trophoblasts. To identify EVT-specific gene expression signatures in trophoblast cell lines, we calcuted differentially expressed genes between pre-defined groups based on the distinct origins of the five trophoblast cell lines under investigation. Comparison 1 comprised EVT, HTR-8/Svneo and SGHPL-5 vs choriocarcinoma cells (ACH-3P, BeWo, JEG-3). Comparison 2 comprised EVT, ACH-3P, BeWo, JEG-3 vs extravillous trophoblast cell lines (HTR-8/SVneo, SGHPL-5).

Super-enhancer-guided decoding of gene regulatory networks in trophoblast stem cells

Project description:Cells belonging to trophoblast lineage are required for proper implantation and placentation, as well as the vascular, hematopoietic, and immunological properties of the placenta, a crucial organ mediating dynamic interactions between maternal and fetal tissues. Defects in trophoblast lineage development can cause early pregnancy failure or other pregnancy-related disorders. Despite its pivotal roles, the placenta remains as one of the least studied organs. Until now, only a handful of trophoblast-specific transcription factors (TFs) have been characterized, and underlying regulatory mechanisms modulating trophoblast lineage development remain poorly understood. Here we explore trophoblast stem cell (TSC)-specific super-enhancers (SEs) and subsequently identify SE-associated factors enriched with previously known and many unknown TFs modulating trophoblast lineage development. By mapping direct targets of 28 TSC-specific TFs in TSCs, we construct highly intertwined transcriptional regulatory networks where TFs are co-regulated and linked with signaling pathways, and which function as cellular modules dedicated to trophoblast lineage development. Additionally, we reveal that TSC-specific TFs alter their target sites corresponding to the reshaped enhancers during TSC differentiation. These findings advance our understanding on placenta biology.
