Poly I:C Induced Gene Expression Changes in Non-Human Primates I

ABSTRACT: The respiratory epithelium is the body’s first line of defense to pathogens, pollutants, and other potentially injurious agents that can be inhaled. Sampling the upper respiratory tract is becoming a widely used technique in the clinic to examine the molecular changes in the diseased airway; however, it is unclear as to whether the responses in the upper respiratory tract (i.e. the nasal turbinates) reflect the changes that occur in the lower respiratory tract (i.e. trachea and lungs). Here, we assessed the responses to poly I:C, a synthetic double-stranded RNA molecule that is meant to mimic the acute effects of a viral infection, in both the upper and lower respiratory tracts of cynomolgus macaques. To do this, we compared the in vivo response after a nasal poly I:C challenge in a nasal scrape samples (performed using a nasal curette) to responses that occurred after ex vivo poly I:C stimulation in nasal scrapes, tracheal epithelial brushings, and lung tissue explants in non-human primates.

Ectopic germinal centers in the nasal turbinates contribute to B cell immunity to intranasal viral infection and vaccination

Project description:The nasal mucosa is the first immunologically active site that respiratory viruses encounter and establishing immunity at the initial point of pathogen contact is essential for preventing viral spread. Influenza A virus (IAV) in humans preferentially replicates in the upper respiratory tract (URT) but mouse models of infection result in lower respiratory tract (LRT) infection. Here we optimize IAV inoculation to enhance replication in the nasal turbinate (NT) and study local B cell immunity. We demonstrate that URT-targeted IAV infection stimulates robust local B cell responses, including germinal centre (GC) B cell formation in the NT, outside of classical nasal associated lymphoid tissues (NALT). NT GC contribute to local tissue resident B cell generation and enhance local antibody production. Furthermore, URT-focused immunization also induces significant GC formation in the NT. Finally, we detect steady-state GC in the NT of both mice and healthy humans, suggesting continuous immune surveillance triggered by environmental stimuli. These findings highlight the pivotal role of the NT in local and systemic immunity, with important implications for future mucosal vaccines targeting the upper airways.

Single cell sequencing of mucosal brushings from human nasal polyp

Project description:Allergic nasal polyposis is a chronic type 2 inflammatory condition of the upper respiratory tract. We characterize nasal polyps from 5 subjects using single-cell RNA-sequencing, identifying “allergic” tuft cells, characterized by increased expression of the prostaglandin synthetic pathway, in association with a PGE2-activated gene signature.

Variable DPP4 expression in multiciliated cells of the human nasal epithelium as a determinant for MERS-CoV tropism

Project description:Transmissibility of respiratory viruses is a complex viral trait that is intricately linked to tropism. Several highly transmissible viruses, including SARS-CoV-2 and Influenza viruses, specifically target multiciliated cells in the upper respiratory tract to facilitate efficient human-to-human transmission. In contrast, the zoonotic MERS-CoV generally transmits poorly between humans, which is largely attributed to the absence of its receptor DPP4 in the upper respiratory tract. At the same time, MERS-CoV epidemiology is characterized by occasional superspreading events, suggesting that some individuals can disseminate this virus effectively. Here, we utilized well-differentiated human pulmonary and nasal airway organoid-derived cultures to further delineate the respiratory tropism of MERS-CoV. We find that MERS-CoV replicated to high titers in both pulmonary and nasal airway cultures. Using single-cell mRNA sequencing, immunofluorescence and immunohistochemistry, we show that MERS-CoV preferentially targeted multiciliated cells, leading to loss of ciliary coverage. MERS-CoV cellular tropism was dependent on the differentiation of the organoid-derived cultures, and replication efficiency varied considerably between donors. Similarly, variable and focal expression of DPP4 was revealed in human nose tissues. This study indicates that the upper respiratory tract tropism of MERS-CoV may vary between individuals due to differences in DPP4 expression, providing an explanation for the unpredictable transmission pattern of MERS-CoV.

Bovine Respiratory Disease Complex

Project description:Bovine respiratory epithelial cells have different susceptibility to bovine respiratory syncytial virus infection. The cells derived from the lower respiratory tract were significantly more susceptible to the virus than those derived from the upper respiratory tract. Pre-infection with virus of lower respiratory tract with increased adherence of P. multocida; this was not the case for upper tract. However, the molecular mechanisms of enhanced bacterial adherence are not completely understood. To investigate whether virus infection regulates the cellular adherence receptor on bovine trachea-, bronchus- and lung-epithelial cells, we performed proteomic analyses.

Nasal scrape gene expression profiling in asthmatics

Project description:Gene expression profiling was performed on nasal scrape samples obtained from asthmatics and matched healthy controls, to identify markers associated with various asthma subtypes. Nasal scrape samples were collected from asthmatics and healthy controls and subjected to expression profiling using Affymetrix HG-U133Plus2.0 microarrays.

Multi-angled transcriptome analyses reveal chameleon-like behavior of macrophages in the porcine respiratory tract

Project description:Macrophages have a pivotal role during viral infections in pigs. By expressing cell surface receptors, macrophages become viral targets and reservoirs. In the case of upper respiratory tract infections, many viruses target the peripheral nasal mucosa. Recent in vivo and in vitro (primary nasal cell cultures) porcine reproductive and respiratory syndrome virus (PRRSV) studies demonstrated that several macrophage subsets exist in the porcine nasal mucosa, and that virus strains with different virulence showed altered tropism for these different macrophage populations. To further investigate these macrophage subsets, total RNA sequencing was performed in parallel on two subsets from the nasal mucosa and lung macrophages. Macrophages were isolated by either fluorescent activated cell sorting (FACS; cf. bulk RNAseq) or laser capture microdissection (LCM; cf. LCM RNAseq) in combination with immunofluorescence staining against two macrophage markers, CD163 and Sialoadhesin (Sn). With both RNAseq methods, nasal macrophages showed a different transcriptomic profile compared to lung macrophages. Differentially expressed genes were identified in the two subsets of nasal macrophages. Gene set enrichment analysis on the three macrophage populations showed that GO terms and KEGG pathways on LCM RNAseq data were more specific to the spatial location of macrophage subsets than bulk RNAseq data. Cell type signature analysis revealed that nasal CD163+Sn- cells resemble squamous epithelial cells (LCM RNAseq) or antigen presenting cells (bulk RNAseq) while nasal CD163+Sn+ cells are more like fibroblasts/stromal cells (LCM RNAseq) or vascular endothelial cell (bulk RNAseq). Our results confirmed that not only macrophages in different tissues but also macrophages in different areas within the same tissue have different transcriptional programs, suggesting their differential roles in their interaction with pathogens and corresponding immune responses.
