Project description:Our hypothesis is that dengue induces different innate immune responses in patients with mild respective severe dengue. We further hypothesize that severe dengue infection is a consequence of an over reactive inflammatory response which could be inhibited in an early stage by immune suppressants. We hypothesize that the drugs used in this study induce a down regulated inflammatory response; VP-16 by triggering apoptosis and Rosiglitazone by inhibiting NFkB related cytokine production In-vitro dengue infected U937, transcriptional assessment

Project description:Dengue viruses cause two severe diseases that alter vascular fluid barrier functions, dengue hemorrhagic fever (DHF) and dengue shock syndrome (DSS). While the mechanisms that lead to vascular permeability are unknown, the endothelium plays a central role in regulating fluid and cellular efflux from capillaries. Thus, dysregulation of endothelial cells functions by dengue virus infection may contribute to pathogenesis and severe disease. We used microarrays to investigate the effect of dengue virus infection on gene expression within primary human endothelial cells at various times post infection and identified numerous upregulated antiviral and immune response genes. Early passage primary endothelial cells (HUVECs) were mock infected (no virus) or infected with dengue virus and total RNA collected at 3 timepoints: 12, 24, and 48 hours post infection. Multiple timepoints were analyzed to identify changes in gene expression levels over time. Gene expression from both mock infected and dengue virus infected endothelial cells was evaluated to determine fold induction at each timepoint.

Project description:Clinical symptoms of dengue virus (DENV) infection, the most prevalent arthropod-borne viral disease, range from classical mild dengue fever to severe, life-threatening dengue shock syndrome. However, most DENV infections cause few or no symptoms. Asymptomatic DENV-infected patients provide a unique opportunity to decipher the host immune responses leading to virus elimination without negative impact on an individual’s health. We used an integrated approach of transcriptional profiling and immunological analysis to compare a Cambodian population of strictly asymptomatic viremic individuals with clinical dengue patients. Whereas inflammatory pathways and innate immune response pathways were similar between asymptomatic individuals and clinical dengue patients, expression of proteins related to antigen presentation and subsequent T and B cell activation pathways were differentially regulated, independent of viral load and previous DENV infection history. Feedback mechanisms controlled the immune response in asymptomatic viremic individuals, as demonstrated by increased activation of T cell apoptosis-related pathways and FcγRIIB signaling associated with decreased anti-DENV specific antibody concentrations. Taken together, our data illustrate that symptom-free DENV infection in children is associated with determined by increased activation of the adaptive immune compartment and proper control mechanisms, leading to elimination of viral infection without excessive immune activation, with implications for novel vaccine development strategies

Project description:Dengue virus infection can result in severe symptoms including shock and hemorrhage, but an understanding of the molecular correlates of disease severity is lacking. Bulk transcriptomics on blood samples are difficult to interpret because the blood is composed of different cell types that may react differently to virus infection. Dengue virus RNA can be detected in human plasma, however identifying the cells carrying dengue virus through the bloodstream in vivo has proven challenging. Here we used our recently developed viscRNA-Seq approach to profile transcriptomes of thousands of single blood peripheral mononuclear cells from 6 human subjects with dengue fever and severe dengue, as well as to characterize the cell types associated with dengue virus in the human blood. We found that although no bulk transcriptome marker for severe dengue exists, the expression of MX2 in naive B cells, of CD163 in CD14+/CD16+ monocytes and of other genes in specific cell types is highly predictive for severe dengue. We detected virus-associated cells in the blood of two severe dengue patients with high viral load and discovered the majority of these to be B cells expressing germline IgM or IgD immunoglobulin chains and naive markers but also showing signs of activation and expression of CD69, CXCR4, and other surface receptors. In bystander B cells we detected signs of strong immune activation, parallel hypersomatic evolution and, in one severe degue subject, an anomalously large clone of highly mutated, IgG1 plasmablasts that could be reactive to dengue virus. This study presents a high-resolution molecular exploration into dengue virus infection in humans and can be generalized to any RNA virus.

Project description:Background: dengue is a potentially life-threatening viral infection. Early prognostic markers of severe complications may improve case management and reduce dengue-related mortalities. This study aimed to identify circulating microRNAs (miRNAs) as biomarkers for predicting severe dengue. Methods: Serum samples from dengue-infected patients were collected on the first day of admission. Patients were followed up for 14 days after admission to determine the final diagnosis. Participants were divided into non-severe and severe dengue, as defined by WHO 2009 criteria. Circulating microtranscriptome analysis was performed using the NanoString miRNA Expression Assay. The expression level of candidate miRNAs were then validated by quantitative reverse transcription-PCR (qRT-PCR) method. Findings: The discovery cohort (N=19) lead to the identification of 37 differentially expressed miRNAs between the two groups. Six miRNAs (miR122-5p, miR1246, miR1303, miR574-5p, miR30d-5p, and miR424-5p) were selected and further validated in the larger cohort (N=135). The qRT-PCR analysis confirmed that the six miRNAs expression levels were significantly higher in the severe dengue group compared to the non-severe group. Based on receiver operating characteristic (ROC) analysis, miR574-5p and miR1246 displayed the highest diagnostic performance in discriminating between severe from non-severe dengue (AROC curve =0·83). Additionally, miR574-5p and miR1246 had high sensitivity and high negative predictive value for detecting severe dengue. Multivariate analysis suggested that serum miR574-5p was an independent predictor of severe dengue (odds ratio 3·30, 95% CI 1·81-6·04; p<0·001). Interpretation: Circulating miRNAs, especially miR-574-5p and miR-1246, could be promising diagnostic and prognostic biomarkers for severe dengue.

Project description:Infection with dengue viruses (DENVs) leads to a spectrum of disease outcomes. The pathophysiology of severe versus non-severe manifestations of DENV infection may be driven by host responses, which could be reflected in the transcriptional profiles of peripheral blood immune cells. We conducted genome-wide microarray analysis of whole blood RNA from 34 DENV-infected children in Nicaragua collected on days 3–6 of illness, with different disease manifestations. Gene expression analysis identified genes that are differentially regulated between clinical subgroups. The most striking transcriptional differences were observed between dengue patients with and without shock, especially in the expression of mitochondrial ribosomal proteins associated with protein biosynthesis. In the dengue hemorrhagic fever patients, one subset of differentially expressed genes encode neutrophil-derived anti-microbial peptides associated with innate immunity. We analyzed 44 HEEBO arrays on which were hybridized RNA amplified from whole blood collected into PAXgene tubes. 34 samples were collected from DENV-infected patients who presented between days 3-6 of illness. Six convalescent samples collected 14-19 days after onset of symptoms were from two dengue fever patients, one dengue hemorrhagic fever patient and three dengue shock syndrome patients. Additionally, samples from four normal healthy individuals were also analyzed.

Project description:Dengue is a pan-tropic public health problem. In children, dengue shock syndrome (DSS) is the most common life-threatening complication. Predicting patients who may develop DSS may improve triage and treatment. To this end, we conducted a nested case-control comparison of the early host-transcriptional features in 24 DSS patients and 56 sex-, age-, virus serotype-matched uncomplicated dengue patients. In the first instance we defined the âearly dengueâ profile. The transcriptional signature in acute versus convalescent samples (â¤72hrs post illness-onset) was defined by an over-abundance of interferon-inducible transcripts (31% of the 551 over-abundant transcripts), and canonical gene ontology terms that included response to virus, immune response, innate immune response and inflammatory response. Pathway and network analysis identified STAT1, STAT2, STAT3, IRF7, IRF9, IRF1, CEBPB and SP1 as key transcriptional factors mediating the early response. Strikingly, the only differences in the transcriptional signatures of early DSS and uncomplicated dengue cases was the greater abundance of several neutrophil-associated transcripts in patients who progressed to DSS, a finding supported by higher plasma concentrations of several canonical proteins associated with neutrophil-degranulation (BPI, ELA2, DEF1A). Elevated levels of neutrophil-associated transcripts were independent of the neutrophil count and also the genotype of the infecting virus, as genome-length sequences of DENV-1 (n=15) and DENV-2 (n=3) viruses sampled from DSS patients were phylogenetically indistinguishable from those sampled from uncomplicated dengue patients (32 DENV-1 and 9 DENV-2). Collectively, these data suggest an hitherto unrecognised association between neutrophil activation, pathogenesis and the development of DSS and point to future strategies for guiding prognosis. 112 patients: 80 with uncomplicated dengue, 32 with dengue shock syndrome

Project description:This pilot study, aimed to profile the host transcriptome as a potential strategy for identifying specific biomarkers for dengue prediction and detection. High-throughput RNA-sequencing (RNA-seq) was employed to generate host transcriptome profiles in 16 dengue patients and 10 healthy controls. Differentially expressed genes (DEGs) were identified in patients with severe dengue and those with dengue with warning signs compared to healthy individuals. Gene Ontology (GO) and Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes (KEGG) analyses were performed to elucidate the functions of upregulated and downregulated genes. Compared to healthy controls, 6466 genes were significantly differentially expressed (P < 0.05) in the dengue with warning signs group and 3082 genes in the severe dengue group, with over half being upregulated. The major KEGG pathways implicated included transport and catabolism (14.4%-16.3%), signal transduction (6.6%-7.3%), global and overview maps (6.7%-7.1%), viral diseases (4.6%-4.8%), and the immune system (4.4%-4.6%). Several genes exhibited consistent and significant upregulation across all dengue patients, regardless of severity: Interferon alpha inducible protein 27 (IFI27), Potassium Channel Tetramerisation Domain Containing 14 (KCTD14), Syndecan 1 (SDC1), DCC netrin 1 receptor (DCC), Ubiquitin C-terminal hydrolase L1 (UCHL1), Marginal zone B and B1 cell specific protein (MZB1), Nestin (NES), C-C motif chemokine ligand 2 (CCL2), TNF receptor superfamily member 17 (TNFSF17), and TNF receptor superfamily member 13B (TNFRSF13B). Further analysis revealed potential biomarkers for severe dengue prediction, including TNF superfamily member 15 (TNFSF15), Plasminogen Activator Inhibitor-2 (SERPINB2), motif chemokine ligand 7 (CCL7), aconitate decarboxylase 1 (ACOD1), Metallothionein 1G (MT1G) and Myosin Light Chain Kinase (MYLK2), which were expressed 3.5 times, 2.9 times, 2.3 times, 2.1 times, 1.7 times, and 1.4 times greater, respectively, than dengue patients exhibiting warning signs. The identification of these host biomarkers through RNA-sequencing holds promising implications and potential to augment existing dengue detection algorithms, contributing significantly to improved diagnostic and prognostic capabilities.

Project description:Dengue is the most important arboviral infection of humans. A host pro-inflammatory immune response is widely believed to contribute to the clinical complications that occur in some patients with dengue. Here, immune correlates of early prednisolone therapy were defined in Vietnamese dengue patients enrolled in a randomized controlled trial, comparing a three day regimen of high (2mg/kg) or low (0.5mg/kg) dose prednisolone with placebo. Prednisolone conferred a small change in the whole blood gene expression profile, with 81 transcripts from 64 genes differentially abundant between high-dose prednisolone and placebo treated patients. A prominent theme in the prednisolone gene expression signature was the under-abundance of transcripts from genes associated with T and NK cell cytolytic effector functions. Surprisingly, prednisolone therapy was not associated with attenuation of early-convalescent T cell responses or plasma cytokine levels. Collectively, these findings are consistent with a remarkably benign influence of prednisolone on immune response parameters in dengue patients, and are in line with the trial evidence showing lack of impact on clinical laboratory endpoints and clinical phenotype. The gene expression microarray assay was conducted on samples from the first 123 consecutive patients (placebo, 40; 0.5mg/kg prednisolone, 42; 2.0mg/kg prednisolone, 41).
