Project description:Type I interferon (IFN-I) signals through two receptor subunits, IFNAR1 and IFNAR2, to regulate sterile and infectious immunity. IFNAR1 expression is tightly regulated to prevent autoimmunity although the mechanisms governing this are incompletely understood. We investigated the strategies used by two flaviviruses, tick-borne encephalitis virus and West Nile virus, to antagonize IFN-I signaling. Infection with these viruses resulted in depletion of IFNAR1 associated with the function of the viral IFN-I antagonist, NS5. NS5 function was dependent on its ability to associate with prolidase (PEPD), a cellular dipeptidase. PEPD was required for IFNAR1 maturation and accumulation, as well as gene induction following IFNAR1 stimulation. The relevance of PEPD to human biology was confirmed in fibroblasts derived from patients with genetic prolidase deficiency that expressed low IFNAR1 and exhibited reduced responses to IFNAR1. Thus, by understanding flavivirus IFN-I antagonism, PEPD is revealed as a central regulator of IFN-I responses in humans. RNA was isolated from replicates of 4 cultured dermal fibroblast lines derived from patients with genetic prolidase deficiency (PEPD), as well as from 4 cultured dermal fibroblast lines derived from normal healthy donors. These were run on Agilent microarrays to compare differences in gene expression observed in PEPD fibroblasts compared with normal fibroblasts.

Project description:Inhibition of IFN-I signaling promotes the control of persistent virus infection, but the underlying mechanisms remain poorly understood. Here we report that genetic ablation of IFNAR1 specifically in NK cells led to elevated numbers of T follicular helper cells, germinal center B cells, and plasma cells, resulting in hastened virus clearance comparable to IFNAR1 blockade by an IFNAR1 neutralizing antibody. Antigen-specific B cells and antiviral antibodies were essential for the accelerated control of LCMV Cl13 infection following IFNAR1 blockade. IFNAR1 signaling in NK cells promoted NK cell maturation, function, and killing of antigenspecific CD4 and CD8 T cells. Therefore, Inhibition of IFN I signaling in NK cells enhances CD4 and CD8 T cell responses, elevates humoral immune response, and thereby facilitates the control of persistent virus infection.

Project description:Type I interferons (IFNs) are a family of cytokines that play an important role in regulating immune responses to pathogens and tumors and are used therapeutically. All IFNs are considered to signal via the heterodimeric IFNAR1-IFNAR2 complex, yet some subtypes such as IFN? can exhibit distinct functional properties, although the molecular basis of this is unclear. Here we demonstrate IFN uniquely and specifically ligates to IFNAR1 in an IFNAR2-independent manner and provide the structural basis of the IFNAR1-IFN interaction. We show that the IFNAR1-IFN complex transduces signals to modulate the expression of a set of genes independently of IFNAR2. Moreover, we show the in vivo importance of the IFNAR1-IFN signaling axis in a murine model of LPS-induced septic shock. Thus, we provide a molecular basis for understanding specific functions of IFN?. Interferon b induced gene expression in peritoneal exudate cells was measured 3hr post intra-peritoneal injection of 10,000IU/ml of interferon beta or saline into wildtype and Ifnar2-/- mice. Three independant experiments were performed for each treatment in both genotypes using different mice for each sample.

Project description:Although type III interferons (IFN), also known as IFN-λ or IL28/IL-29, restrict infection by several viruses, their mechanism of inhibitory action has remained uncertain. We used recombinant IFN-λ and mice lacking the IFN-λ receptor (IFNLR1) to evaluate the effect of IFN-λ on infection with West Nile virus (WNV), an encephalitic flavivirus. Cell culture studies in keratinocytes and dendritic cells showed no direct antiviral effect of exogenous IFN-λ even though ISGs were induced. Correspondingly, we observed no differences in WNV burden between wild-type and Ifnlr1-/- mice in the draining lymph node, spleen, and blood. However, we detected earlier dissemination and increased WNV infection in the brain and spinal cord of Ifnlr1-/- mice, yet this was not associated with a direct antiviral effect on infection of neurons. Instead, an increase in blood-brain barrier (BBB) permeability was observed in Ifnlr1-/- mice. Accordingly, treatment of mice with pegylated IFN-λ2 resulted in decreased BBB permeability, reduced WNV infection in the brain without impacting viremia, and improved survival against lethal virus challenge. An in vitro model of the BBB showed that IFN-λ signaling in brain microvascular endothelial cells increased transendothelial electrical resistance, decreased virus movement across the barrier, and modulated tight junction protein localization in a protein synthesis- and STAT1-independent manner. Our data establish a novel indirect antiviral function of IFN-λ in which non-canonical signaling through IFNLR1 tightens the BBB and restricts viral neuroinvasion and pathogenesis. This finding suggests new clinical applications for IFN-λ in treating viral or autoimmune diseases.

Project description:Inborn errors of TLR3-dependent IFN-α/β- and -λ-mediated immunity in the central nervous system (CNS) can underlie herpes simplex virus 1 (HSV-1) encephalitis (HSE). The respective contributions of IFN-α/β- and -λ are unknown. We report a child homozygous for a genomic deletion of the entire coding sequence and part of the 3’UTR of the last exon of IFNAR1, who died from HSE at the age of two years. An older cousin died following vaccination against measles, mumps and rubella at 12 months of age, and another 17-year-old cousin homozygous for the same variant has had other viral illnesses. The encoded IFNAR1 protein is expressed on the cell surface but is truncated and cannot interact with the tyrosine kinase TYK2. The patient’s fibroblasts and EBV-B cells did not respond to IFN-α2b or IFN-β, in terms of STAT1, STAT2 and STAT3 phosphorylation, or the induction of IFN-stimulated genes (ISGs). Transcriptome analysis revealed a complete abolition of genome-wide ISG induction in response to IFN-α2b in IFNAR1-deficient fibroblasts from the patient. These fibroblasts were susceptible to viruses, including HSV-1, even in the presence of exogenous IFN-α2b or IFN-β. HSE is therefore a consequence of inherited complete IFNAR1 deficiency. This experiment of Nature indicates that IFN-α/β are essential for anti-HSV-1 immunity in the CNS.

Project description:Type I Interferons (IFNs) are potent inhibitors of viral replication. Here, we reformatted the natural murine and human type I Interferon-α/β receptors IFNAR1 and IFNAR2 into fully synthetic biological switches. The transmembrane and intracellular domains of natural IFNAR1 and IFNAR2 were conserved, whereas the extracellular domains were exchanged by nanobodies directed against the fluorescent proteins Green fluorescent protein (GFP) and mCherry. Using this approach, multimeric single-binding GFP-mCherry ligands induced synthetic IFNAR1/IFNAR2 receptor complexes and initiated STAT1/2 mediated signal transduction via Jak1 and Tyk2. Homodimeric GFP and mCherry ligands showed that IFNAR2 but not IFNAR1 homodimers were sufficient to induce sustained STAT1/2 signaling. Transcriptome analysis revealed that synthetic murine type I IFN signaling was highly comparable to IFNα4 signaling and resulted in efficient elimination of vesicular stomatitis virus (VSV) in a cell culture based viral infection model using MC57 cells stimulated with synthetic type IFN ligands. Using intracellular deletion variants and point mutations, Y510 and Y335 in murine IFNAR2 were verified as unique phosphorylation sites for STAT1/2 activation, whereas the other tyrosine residues in IFNAR1 and IFNAR2 were not involved in STAT1/2 phosphorylation. Comparative analysis of synthetic human IFNARs supporting this finding. In summary, our data showed that synthetic type I IFN signal transduction is originating from IFNAR2 rather than IFNAR1.

Project description:The aim of this study was to identify the signaling pathways differentially engaged upon infection with either live or heat killed Mycobacterium tuberculosis in murine bone marrow derived macrophages. Based on preliminary data that type I IFN signaling dominates the transcriptional differences, we investigated what roles the type I IFN receptor IFNAR and the signaling molecule STING play during infection with either live or heat killed Mycobacterium tuberculosis in bone marrow derived macrophages. In WT and STING KO macrophages, IFNbeta treatment was added either by itself or in addition to both of the infection conditions to test whether the lack of IFNbeta induction in these cells accounted for any differences in transcriptional respones.added IFNbeta treatment either by itself or in addition to both of the infection conditions.
