Elucidating human female genital tract resident DC response to HIV-1 exposure.

ABSTRACT: The female genital tract (FGT) represents a complex and dynamic environment with specialized immune mechanisms uniquely designed to maintain a delicate balance between protection against invading pathogens and accommodating the unique physiological changes associated with reproductive function. Dendritic cells (DCs) are critical in shaping mucosal immunity against pathogens and maintaining tissue homeostasis. The unique ability of DCs to recognize invading pathogens through pattern recognition receptors (PRRs), and prime naive T cell function, make DCs ideal targets for vaccination and therapeutic strategies against cancers and infections. However, in HIV pathogenesis, DCs are considered a double-edged sword due to their ability to secrete anti-viral proteins and resist viral replication but capture and transfer active viral particles to target CD4+ T cells. Understanding the heterogeneity of DC populations in the FGT, along with their unique contribution to HIV pathogenesis is key for targeted interventions.

Multi-omic analysis of dendritic cell populations in the female genital tract.

Project description:The female genital tract (FGT) represents a complex and dynamic environment with specialized immune mechanisms uniquely designed to maintain a delicate balance between protection against invading pathogens and accommodating the unique physiological changes associated with reproductive function. Dendritic cells (DCs) are critical in shaping mucosal immunity against pathogens and maintaining tissue homeostasis. The unique ability of DCs to recognize invading pathogens through pattern recognition receptors (PRRs), and prime naive T cell function, make DCs ideal targets for vaccination and therapeutic strategies against cancers and infections. DC subsets and mononuclear phagocyte populations at human mucosal surfaces remain poorly defined. Local characterization of these populations is important, since DCs and mononuclear phagocyte populations are highly specialized depending on the tissue of residence.

Optineurin depletion in dendritic cells

Project description:Dendritic cells (DCs) are specialized antigen-presenting cells (APCs) linking innate and adaptive immune response. DCs are crucial for initiating adaptive immune responses for elimination of invading pathogens and also in inducing immune tolerance toward harmless components to maintain immune homeostasis. Results provide insight into the function of optineurin and its role in the maturation and function of DCs.

Silencing of unintegrated HIV-1 by SLF2 and the SMC5/6 complex

Project description:Silencing of nuclear DNA is an essential feature of the innate immune response to invading pathogens. Early in lentiviral infection, unintegrated viral cDNA accumulates in the nucleus, yet remains poorly expressed. In HIV-1-like lentiviruses, the Vpr accessory protein enhances unintegrated viral DNA expression, suggesting Vpr antagonises cellular restriction. We previously showed how Vpr remodels the host proteome, identifying multiple cellular targets. We now screen these using a targeted CRISPR-Cas9 library, identifying SMC5-SMC6 complex localization factor 2 (SLF2) as the Vpr target responsible for silencing unintegrated HIV-1. SLF2 recruits the SMC5/6 complex to unintegrated lentiviruses, and depletion of SLF2, or the SMC5/6 complex, increases viral expression. Using ATAC-seq, we show that Vpr-mediated SLF2 depletion increases chromatin accessibility of unintegrated virus, suggesting the SMC5/6 complex compacts viral chromatin to silence gene expression. This work implicates the SMC5/6 complex in nuclear immunosurveillance of extrachromosomal DNA and defines an evolutionarily conserved antagonism by Vpr.

Lymph node dendritic cells harbor inducible replication-competent HIV despite years of suppressive ART

Project description:The comprehensive characterization and quantification of the HIV tissue reservoirs is required to design appropriate therapeutic intervention(s) to achieve a cure. While pioneering studies demonstrated that HIV replication and spreading mainly occur in lymphoid tissues, the identification of specific cell subsets harboring replication competent virus in lymphoid tissues has long been neglected. In this context, we and others have recently shown that gut memory CD4 T cells, lymph node T follicular helper (Tfh) cells and tissue macrophages represent major HIV/SIV tissue reservoirs. Notably, Tfh cell differentiation is a multi-stage process that requires long-lasting interactions with lymph node (LN) dendritic cells (DCs) and pre-germinal center B cells in a specific cytokine/chemokine microenvironment. Lymph node DCs are endowed with an exceptional T-cell stimulatory potential and can either migrate from the periphery to the draining lymph node (migratory DCs) or locate in the LN for their entire life span (resident DCs). On the basis of these unique properties, long-term persistence of LN DCs infected with replication competent virus may represent the initial trigger of viral rebound post ART interruption and may therefore represent a major obstacle to HIV cure. We demonstrate that LN migratory DCs are infected with replication competent virus and persist despite suppressive ART. In addition, we identified the mechanisms associated with i) LN DC susceptibility to HIV infection and ii) long term persistence of HIV-infected LN DCs i.e. proliferation of infected cells in tissue sanctuaries.

Gene Expression profiling of rice leaves undergoing an innate immune response induced by XOO secreted cell wall degrading enzyme LipA (Lipase/Esterase A)

Project description:The plant cell wall degrading enzyme LipA (Lipase/Esterase A) is a Type II secretion system secreted protein of Xanthomonas oryzae pv. oryzae (Xoo; the casual of bacterial leaf blight of rice). LipA is an Xoo virulence factor. However, LipA is a double edged sword for Xoo as it induces rice defense responses such as programmed cell death/hypersensitive response like reaction (HR) and callose deposition. Prior treatment with LipA enhances resistance against subseqent Xoo infection. In order to understand the molecular events associated with Esterase (LipA) induced innate immune responsein rice , whole genome transcriptional profiling was performed using Affymetrix Rice GeneChips

Transcription profiling of mouse bone marrow-derived macrophages simulated with LPS, time series

Project description:The innate immune system is a two-edged sword; it is absolutely required for host defense against infection, but if left uncontrolled can trigger a plethora of inflammatory diseases. Here we used systems biology approaches to predict and validate a gene regulatory network involving a dynamic interplay between the transcription factors NF-ÎºB, C/EBPÎ´, and ATF3 that controls inflammatory responses. We mathematically modeled transcriptional regulation of Il6 and Cebpd genes and experimentally validated the prediction that the combination of an initiator (NF-ÎºB), an amplifier (C/EBPÎ´) and an attenuator (ATF3) forms a regulatory circuit that discriminates between transient and persistent Toll-like receptor 4-induced signals. Our results suggest a mechanism that enables the innate immune system to detect the duration of infection and to respond appropriately. Experiment Overall Design: Bone marrow-derived macrophages stimulated with LPS for 0, 20, 40, 60, 80, 120, 240 and 360 minutes.

Interleukin-27 is a potent inhibitor of cis HIV-1 replication in Monocyte-derived Dendritic Cells via a Type I Interferon-independent pathway

Project description:IL-27 treated DCs were shown to be highly potent inhibitors of cis HIV-1, particularly of CCR5 tropic strains. Microarray studies of IL-27 treated DCs showed no up-regulation of Type I (IFN) gene expression. Neutralization of the Type-I IFN receptor had no impact on the HIV inhibition. Lastly, IL-27 mediated inhibition was shown to act post-viral entry and prior to completion of reverse transcription. These results show for the first time that IL-27 is a potent inhibitor of cis HIV-1 infection in DCs by a Type I IFN independent mechanism. Gene expression microarrays from 3 samples of immature dendritic cells (iDCs) were compared with 3 samples of iDCs treated with IL-27

Transcriptional profiles of human blood dendritic cell (DC) subsets at steady state

Project description:Innate sensing of viruses by dendritic cells (DCs) is critical for the initiation of anti-viral adaptive immune responses. Virus, however, have evolved to suppress immune activation in infected cells. We now analyze the susceptibility of different populations of dendritic cells to viral infections. We find that circulating human CD1c+ DCs support infection by HIV and influenza virus. Viral infection of CD1c+ DCs is essential for virus-specific CD8+ T cell activation and cytosolic sensing of the virus. In contrast, circulating human CD141+ DCs and pDCs constitutively limit viral fusion. The small GTPase RAB15 mediates this differential viral resistance in DC subsets through selective expression in CD141+ DCs and pDCs. Therefore, dendritic cell sub-populations evolved constitutive resistance mechanisms to mitigate viral infection during induction of antiviral immune response.

dAdo regulates plant cell death

Project description:Regulated host cell death is part of a plant defense strategy against pathogens but it is also involved in accommodating certain beneficial root microbes. We have identified extracellular metabolites and intracellular metabolic signals that contribute to beneficial root fungal endophyte colonization, and uncovered a conserved cell death mechanism likely co-opted for establishing plant-endophyte symbiosis.
