Project description:Although the transcription factors IRF-3 and IRF-7 are considered master regulators of type I interferon (IFN) induction and IFN stimulated gene (ISG) expression, Irf3(-/-)×Irf7(-/-) double knockout (DKO) myeloid dendritic cells (mDC) produce relatively normal levels of IFN-? after viral infection. We generated Irf3(-/-)×Irf5(-/-)×Irf7(-/-) triple knockout (TKO) mice to test whether IRF-5 was the source of the residual induction of IFN-? and ISGs in mDCs. In pathogenesis studies with two unrelated positive-sense RNA viruses (West Nile virus (WNV) and murine norovirus), TKO mice succumbed at rates greater than DKO mice and equal to or approaching those of mice lacking the type I IFN receptor (Ifnar(-/-)). In ex vivo studies, after WNV infection or exposure to Toll-like receptor agonists, TKO mDCs failed to produce IFN-? or express ISGs. In contrast, this response was sustained in TKO macrophages following WNV infection. To define IRF-regulated gene signatures, we performed microarray analysis on WNV-infected mDC from wild type (WT), DKO, TKO, or Ifnar(-/-) mice, as well as from mice lacking the RIG-I like receptor adaptor protein MAVS. Whereas the gene induction pattern in DKO mDC was similar to WT cells, remarkably, almost no ISG induction was detected in TKO or Mavs(-/-) mDC. The relative equivalence of TKO and Mavs(-/-) responses suggested that MAVS dominantly regulates ISG induction in mDC. Moreover, we showed that MAVS-dependent induction of ISGs can occur through an IRF-5-dependent yet IRF-3 and IRF-7-independent pathway. Our results establish IRF-3, -5, and -7 as the key transcription factors responsible for mediating the type I IFN and ISG response in mDC during WNV infection and suggest a novel signaling link between MAVS and IRF-5.

Project description:Innate immunity serves as the primary defense against viral and microbial infections in humans. Among its components, retinoic acid-inducible gene I (RIG-I)-like receptors (RLRs) are well-characterized intracellular pattern-recognition proteins that trigger innate immune responses upon viral infection. However, the precise influence of cellular metabolites, especially fatty acids, on the regulation of RLR-mediated antiviral innate immunity remains largely elusive. Here, through screening a metabolite library, palmitic acid (PA) has been identified as a crucial metabolite responsible for modulating antiviral infections. Mechanistically, PA induces the palmitoylation of MAVS, leading to MAVS aggregation and subsequent activation, thereby enhancing the innate immune response against viral infections. Functionally, the enzyme palmitoyl-transferase ZDHHC24 plays a key role in catalyzing the palmitoylation of MAVS at both C46 and C79 residues, thereby facilitating the transduction of RLR-mediated TBK1-IRF3-IFN signaling pathway, particularly under conditions of PA stimulation or high-fat diet feeding. Conversely, the absence of ZDHHC24 significantly attenuates virus-induced innate immune responses in both cells and mice. Moreover, APT2 counteracts with ZDHHC24 to de-palmitoylate MAVS, thus inhibiting the antiviral response. Consequently, inhibition of APT2 using compounds like ML349 effectively reverses MAVS palmitoylation and activation in response to antiviral infections. These findings underscore the critical role of PA and ZDHHC24 in regulating antiviral innate immunity through MAVS palmitoylation, and suggest potential therapeutic strategies for combating viral infections, such as enhancing PA intake or specifically targeting APT2.

Project description:Purpose of this experiment was to further understand how innate immune defenses impact host response and West Nile virus tissue tropism. This study examined host-transcriptional response to West Nile virus in permissive and nonpermissive tissues using wildtype mice and mice with genetically altered interferon signaling pathways. Age-matched six to twelve week old mice were inoculated subcutaneously in the left rear footpad with 100 PFU of West Nile virus isolate TX 2002-HC (WNV-TX) in a 10 microL inoculum diluted in Hanks balanced salt solution (HBSS) supplemented with 1% heat-inactivated FBS. Mice were monitored daily for morbidity and mortality. Expression oligonucleotide arrays were performed on RNA isolated from spleen and liver tissues from strain and time-matched mock infected mice (n=2) and WNV-TX infected wild type (WT; n=3; day 4 post-infection), Ips-1-/-(n=3; day 4 post-infection), Ifnar-/- (n=3; day 2 post-infection), and Ips-1-/-xIfnar-/- (DKO; n=3; day 4 post-infection) mice.

Project description:We previously identified a subset of interferon stimulated genes (ISGs), including Irf7, Irf1, Oas1a and Oas1b, upregulated by a West Nile virus (WNV) infection in wildtype mouse embryo fibroblasts (MEFs) after viral proteins had inhibited type 1 interferon (IFN)-mediated JAK-STAT signaling and also in WNV-infected STAT1-/-, STAT2-/-, IFNAR-/-, IRF3-/-, IRF7-/-, and IRF3/7-/- MEFs. In this study, ISG upregulation by WNV infection was inhibited in RIG-I/MDA5-/- but not in single knockout MEFs. ISGs upregulation was detected in WNV-infected IRF1-/- and IRF5-/- but was minimal in IRF3/5/7-/- MEFs, suggesting redundant IRF involvement. ISG upregulation by WNV infection in IFNAR-/- MEFs was confirmed by RNA-seq. We previously showed that a single proximal interferon stimulated response element (ISRE) in the Oas1a and Oas1b promoters bound the ISGF3 complex during IFN-dependent upregulation. In this study, we used wild-type and mutant promoter luciferase reporter constructs to identify critical regions in the Oas1b and Ifit1 promoters for IFN-independent transcriptional regulation. Two ISREs were required for both promoters. Mutation of these ISREs in an Ifit1 promoter DNA probe reduced in vitro complex formation. An NF-κB inhibitor decreased Ifit1 promoter activity in cells and in vitro complex formation. IRF3 and p50 binding was detected by ChIP for four upregulated ISGs with two proximal ISREs in their promoters. The data indicate that IFN-independent ISG expression of some ISGs is upregulated by two ISREs functioning cooperatively and the binding of a complex consisting of IRF3, 5, and/or 7 and an NF-κB component(s) as well as other as yet unknown factors.

Project description:The unprecedented 2013-16 outbreak of Ebola virus (EBOV) in West Africa resulted in over 11,300 human deaths. Host resistance to EBOV is thought to involve RIG-I-like receptor (RLR) signaling through the adaptor protein, mitochondrial antiviral signaling (MAVS), but role of RLR-MAVS in orchestrating anti-EBOV responses in vivo is not known. Here, we apply a systems approach to MAVS-deficient mice infected with either wild-type or mouse-adapted EBOV. MAVS controlled EBOV replication through expression of IFNα, IFN-stimulated genes, and regulation of inflammatory responses in the spleen, and prevented cell death in the liver, with macrophages implicated as a major cell-type influencing host resistance. A dominant role for RLR signaling in macrophages was confirmed following conditional deletion of MAVS in LysM+ myeloid cells. These findings reveal tissue-specific transcriptional pathways controlled by RLR signaling in resistance to EBOV, and suggest that EBOV adaptation to cause disease in mice is linked in part to increased antagonism of RLR-dependent signaling.

Project description:We found that fuse ΔLMP1 to MAVS could strengthen MAVS mediated inhibition of PRRSV replication in MARC-145 cells. To better understand the biological function of the fusion protein ΔLMP1-MAVS, overall gene expression of MARC-145 cells transfected with ΔLMP1-MAVS or MAVS was evaluated by mRNA-seq. The result showed that ΔLMP1-MAVS upregulated a number of genes associated with innate immune responses to viral infection, including plenty of interferon-stimulated genes. This study provides reference date to research the working mechanism of ΔLMP1-MAVS.

Project description:The role of astrocytes in innate immunity during viral infections of the central nervous system (CNS) remains to be fully elucidated. Here, we demonstrate that type I interferon (IFN) receptor (IFNAR) signaling in astrocytes regulates blood-brain barrier permeability and protects the cerebellum from infection and immunopathology. Mice with astrocytes lacking IFNAR signaling showed decreased survival after West Nile virus infection that was not due to expanded viral tropism or increased replication. Pattern recognition receptors and IFN-stimulated genes (ISGs) had higher basal and IFN-induced expression in human and mouse cerebellar astrocytes compared to cerebral cortical astrocytes. Our data identify cerebellar astrocytes as key responders to viral infection and highlight distinct innate immune programs in astrocytes from evolutionarily disparate regions of the CNS.

Project description:MAVS-mediated cytosolic RNA sensing plays a central role in tumor immunogenicity. However, the effects of host MAVS signaling on antitumor immunity remains uncertain. Here, we demonstrate that host MAVS pathway drives accelerated tumor growth and impairs antitumor immunity, while MAVS knockout in dendritic cells (DCs) promotes tumor-reactive CD8+ T cell responses. Specifically, the CD8+ T cell priming capacity is enhanced by lack of functional MAVS in a type I interferon-independent, but IL-12-dependent, manner. Mechanistically, loss of RIG-I/MAVS cascade activates non-canonical NF-κB pathway and in turn induces IL-12 production by DCs, resulting in CD8+ T cell: DC crosstalk licensed by IFN-γ and IL-12. Moreover, ablation of host MAVS sensitizes tumors to immunotherapy and attenuates radiation resistance, thereby facilitating the maintenance of effector CD8+ T cells. These findings identify that host MAVS pathway acts as an immune checkpoint of DC-driven antitumor immunity, indicating the development of DC-based immunotherapies through MAVS signaling antagonism.
