Project description:N(6)-methyladenosine (m(6)A) is the most prevalent internal modification of eukaryotic mRNA. Very little is known of the function of m(6)A in the immune system or its role in host-pathogen interactions. Here, we investigate the topology, dynamics and bidirectional influences of the viral-host RNA methylomes during HIV-1 infection of human CD4 T cells. We show that viral infection triggers a massive increase in m(6)A in both host and viral mRNAs. In HIV-1 mRNA, we identified 14 methylation peaks in coding and noncoding regions, splicing junctions and splicing regulatory sequences. We also identified a set of 56 human gene transcripts that were uniquely methylated in HIV-1-infected T cells and were enriched for functions in viral gene expression. The functional relevance of m(6)A for viral replication was demonstrated by silencing of the m(6)A writer or the eraser enzymes, which decreased or increased HIV-1 replication, respectively. Furthermore, methylation of two conserved adenosines in the stem loop II region of HIV-1 Rev response element (RRE) RNA enhanced binding of HIV-1 Rev protein to the RRE in vivo and influenced nuclear export of RNA. Our results identify a new mechanism for the control of HIV-1 replication and its interaction with the host immune system.

Project description:The internal N6-methyladenosine (m6A) methylation of eukaryotic nuclear RNA controls post-transcriptional gene expression, which is regulated by methyltransferases (writers), demethylases (erasers), and m6A-binding proteins (readers) in cells. The YTH domain family proteins (YTHDF1–3) bind to m6A-modified cellular RNAs and affect RNA metabolism and processing. Here, we show that YTHDF1–3 proteins recognize m6A-modified HIV-1 RNA and inhibit HIV-1 infection in cell lines and primary CD4+ T-cells. We further mapped the YTHDF1–3 binding sites in HIV-1 RNA from infected cells. We found that the overexpression of YTHDF proteins in cells inhibited HIV-1 infection mainly by decreasing HIV-1 reverse transcription, while knockdown of YTHDF1–3 in cells had the opposite effects. Moreover, silencing the m6A writers decreased HIV-1 Gag protein expression in virus-producing cells, while silencing the m6A erasers increased Gag expression. Our findings suggest an important role of m6A modification of HIV-1 RNA in viral infection and HIV-1 protein synthesis.

Project description:BackgroundMultiple viruses coinfect the male genital tract, influencing each other’s replication and perhaps affecting human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) pathogenesis and disease progression.MethodsThis study included 453 longitudinal seminal samples from 195 HIV-infected men from the San Diego Primary Infection Resource Consortium and 67 seminal samples from HIV-negative healthy controls. Seminal HIV RNA and DNA from 7 human herpesviruses (HHVs) were measured by real-time polymerase chain reaction. Longitudinal shedding rates were determined by Kaplan-Meier survival analysis. Predictors of viral shedding were determined using backwards selection in a multivariable generalized estimating equation model.ResultsHIV-infected participants presented significantly increased rates of seminal HHV shedding compared with HIV-uninfected controls. Cytomegalovirus (CMV) and Epstein-Barr virus (EBV) were the most commonly detected HHV in semen of HIV-infected participants. Persistent shedding was more common for CMV and EBV when compared to other HHVs. With exception of HHV-7, HHV shedding was not significantly influenced by HIV RNA levels, CD4+ cell counts, or antiretroviral therapy. Presence of CMV, EBV, and herpes simplex virus (HSV) were independent predictors of genital HIV RNA shedding after adjusting for plasma HIV RNA and longitudinal measurements.ConclusionsSeminal replication of multiple HHVs is common in our HIV primary infection cohort. Genital replication of CMV and EBV was the most common and was significantly associated with seminal HIV RNA shedding. Prevalence of HSV shedding was lower and mostly intermittent, but its association with seminal HIV RNA was the strongest. Understanding the complex viral milieu in semen is important for HIV transmission but might also play a role in HIV pathogenesis and disease progression.

Project description:Throughout HIV-1 replication cycle, a complex interplay of host-pathogen interactions takes place in the infected cell, leading to production of new virions. The virus modulates the host cellular machinery in order to support its life cycle, while controlling intracellular defense. We have investigated the dynamic host response to HIV-1 infection by systematically measuring transcriptome, proteome and phosphoproteome expression changes in infected and uninfected SupT1 CD4+ T cells at 5 time-points throughout the HIV-1 replication cycle. Genome-wide transcript levels were assessed by RNA-Seq, while protein and phosphoprotein relative abundances were obtained using SILAC mass spectrometry. By the means of a Gaussian mixed-effects model, we stratified host genes based on their gene expression temporal patterns at the three levels, showing how HIV may affect regulation of certain host genes. The results of the implemented integrative analysis of time-series omics data offers a catalogue of dynamic host response to HIV infection allowing a more comprehensive understanding of host-virus interactions. Furthermore, it facilitates identifying novel host factors potentially promoting or restricting HIV replication.

Project description:HIV-1 latency results from a combination of tightly regulated molecular processes that act at distinct steps of HIV-1 gene expression. In an effort to elucidate the molecular players that govern viral latency, we previously performed a dCas9 chromatin immunoprecipitation coupled with mass spectrometry (Catchet-MS) and identified proteins bound differentially to the latent LTR that putatively promote HIV-1 latency. Here we characterize the Catchet-MS identified PCI domain-containing 2 (PCID2) protein to play a dual role in promoting HIV-1 latency by enforcing both HIV-1 transcription repression as well as post-transcriptional blocks. PCID2 bound the latent HIV-1 LTR and repressed transcription initiation during latency. Depletion of PCID2 remodeled the chromatin landscape at the HIV-1 promoter and resulted in transcriptional activation and reversal of latency. Immunoprecipitation coupled to Mass Spectrometry identified the PCID2 interacting proteins to include members of the spliceosome and other splicing regulators, including negative regulators of viral RNA alternative splicing. PCID2 depletion resulted in over-splicing of intron-containing HIV-1 RNA and mis-regulated expression of vRNA splice variants. Finally, consistent with its role in NXF1-mediated nascent RNA nucleocytoplasmic export as part of the TREX2 complex, PCID2 modulates export of completely spliced vRNA. In summary, we demonstrate that PCID2 is a previously unidentified factor involved in HIV-1 latency regulation which plays a dual role in blocking HIV-1 gene expression by acting on transcription initiation as well as viral RNA processing.

Project description:HIV infection produces a chronic inflammation which leads to early aging of people living with HIV. Even though antiretroviral treatments (ART) have significantly increased HIV patient survival, an underlying chronic inflammation persists leading to HIV-related comorbidities. In this context, changes in microRNAs (miRNAs) expression may contribute to this inflammatory response. This study aims to detect differential expression of circulating miRNAs in treatment-naïve HIV individuals compared to uninfected controls and evaluation of altered miRNAs after one year of ART. Serum miRNAs from patients and controls were analysed using next generation sequencing.

Project description:This phase I trial studies the side effects and best dose of ibrutinib in treating B-cell non-Hodgkin lymphoma that has returned or does not respond to treatment in patients with human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) infection. Ibrutinib may stop the growth of cancer cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth. It is not yet known whether it is safe for patients with HIV infection to receive ibrutinib while also taking anti-HIV drugs.

Project description:People with HIV (PWH) experience an increased vulnerability to premature aging and inflammation-associated comorbidities, even when HIV replication is suppressed by antiretroviral therapy (ART). However, the factors that contribute to or are associated with this vulnerability remain uncertain. In the general population, alterations in the glycomes of circulating IgGs trigger inflammation and precede the onset of aging-associated diseases. Here, we investigate the IgG glycomes of cross-sectional and longitudinal samples from 1,216 women and men, both living with virally suppressed HIV and those without HIV. Our glycan-based machine learning models indicate that living with chronic HIV significantly accelerates the accumulation of pro-aging associated glycomic alterations. Consistently, PWH exhibit heightened expression of senescence associated glycan-degrading enzymes compared to their controls. These glycomic alterations correlate with elevated markers of inflammatory aging and the severity of comorbidities, potentially preceding the development of such comorbidities. Mechanistically, HIV-specific antibodies glycoengineered with these alterations exhibit reduced anti-HIV IgG-mediated innate immune functions. These findings hold significant potential for the development of glycomic based biomarkers and tools to identify and prevent premature aging and comorbidities in people living with chronic viral infections.
