Extracellular vesicles for parasite-parasite transmission by Giardiavirus


ABSTRACT: Giardia duodenalis is a prevalent intestinal pathogens known to cause giardiasis, a condition characterized by diarrhea and frequently linked to malnutrition and growth impairments in children. The presence of Giardiavirus (GLV) in Giardia strains has been associated with heightened immune cytokine responses in the host compared to the GLV-free strains. However, the transmission mode and biological significance of GLV remain unclear. In this study, by using G. duodenalis DH (GLV-containing) and WBC6 (GLV-free) strains, we demonstrated that the DH strain produced extracellular vesicles (EVs), which originated from unique peripheral vesicle and bead-like structures in the ventrolateral flange. Nanoparticle tracking analysis revealed that GLV infected-G. duodenalis DH strain secreted fewer EVs than the GLV-free WBC6 strain. Biochemical and electron microscopy demonstrated that GLV virions can exploit the Giardia EVs pathway to facilitate their spread among parasites. Giardia uptake of GLV-containing EVs occured through clathrin-mediated endocytosis, leading to rapid infection of trophozoites by GLV. Furthermore, GLV infection enhanced messenger RNA translation efficiency, influencing protein abundance in Giardia trophozoites. The presence of GLV also upregulated the glycolytic pathway, with Giardia enolase closely associated with GLV replication. Importantly, Giardia infected with GLV alleviated the pathogenicity of parasite compared to the GLV-freeGiardia strain. These findings highlight the pivotal role of GLV in regulating Giardia biology, suggesting its potential for informing the development of novel intervention strategies against Giardia infections.
