Project description:The host response to influenza A infections is strongly influenced by host genetic factors. Animal models of genetically diverse mouse strains are well suitable to identify host genes involved in severe pathology, viral replication and immune responses. Here, we have utilizing a dual RNAseq approach that allowed us to investigate both viral and host gene expression in the same individual from a single expression assay after H1N1 infection. We performed a comparative expression analysis to identify (i) correlations between host genes and the viral gene expression, (ii) host genes involved in viral replication, and (iii) genes showing differential expression between the two mouse strains after infection. These genes may be key players involved in regulating the differences in pathogenesis and host defense mechanisms after influenza A infections. Expression levels of influenza segments correlated well with the viral load and may thus be used as surrogates for conventional viral load measurements. Furthermore, we investigated the functional role of two genes, Reg3g and Irf7, in knock-out mice and found that deletion of the Irf7 gene renders the host highly susceptible to H1N1 infection.

Female, 10-12 weeks old mice were anesthetized by intra-peritoneal injection with Ketamine/Xylazine (85% NaCl (0.9%), 10% Ketamine, 5% Xylazine) with doses adjusted to the individual body weight. Mice were then intra-nasally infected with 20µl virus solution (2x10³ FFU PR8M) or mock-treated with PBS.

Project description:Interferon-regulatory factors (IRFs) are a family of transcription factors (TFs) that play critical roles in translating viral recognition into antiviral responses, including type I IFN production. Dengue virus (DENV) and other clinically important flaviviruses are controlled by functional type I interferon (IFN) responses. Using an experimental model of DENV infection that recapitulates key aspects of the human disease in mice, we demonstrate that while mice lacking the type I IFN receptor (Ifnar1-/-) succumb to DENV infection, mice that are deficient in IRF-3, IRF-5, and IRF-7 – the three transcription factors thought to regulate type I IFN production – survive DENV challenge. Genome-wide RNA-seq analysis of WT, Irf3(-/-)×Irf7(-/-) (DKO), Irf3-/-xIrf5-/-xIrf7-/- (TKO), and Ifnar1-/- (AB6) splenocytes identified minimal type I IFN production but a robust type II IFN (IFN-γ) response in DKO and TKO mice later shown to be dependent on IRF-1. These results reveal a key role for IRF-1 in antiviral defense by activating both type I and II IFN responses during DENV infection.

Project description:IRF3 is one of the most critical transcription factor in down stream of pattern recognition receptors (such as toll-like receptor and RIG-I-like receptor) signalling pathway. IRF3 is known to induce the expression of type I IFN gene upon virus infection. To furter examine the role of IRF3 in virus-induced gene expression, we preformed microarray analysis in IRF3-/- peritoneal macrophages infected with VSV, and found that IRF3 suppresses the expression of Il12b gene. Peritoneal macrophages from WT of IRF3-/- B6 mice were infected with VSV(1 M.O.I. ) for 6 hous, and then subjected to microarray analysis.

Project description:Transcriptional response to virus infection in mice lacking type I and type III signaling The transcriptional response to virus infection is thought to be predominantly induced by interferon (IFN) signaling. Here we demonstrate that, in the absence of IFN signaling, an IFN-like transcriptome is still maintained. This transcriptional activity is mediated from IFN-stimulated response elements (ISREs) that bind to both the IFN stimulated gene factor 3 (ISGF3) as well as to IFN response factor 7 (IRF7). Through a combination of both in vitro biochemistry and in vivo transcriptional profiling, we have dissected what constitutes IRF-specific, ISGF3-specific, or universal ISREs. Taken together, the data presented here suggests that IRF7 can induce an IFN-like transcriptome in the absence of type-I or -III signaling and therefore provides a level of redundancy to cells to ensure the induction of the antiviral state. Mouse: Infections were performed in triplicate and lungs from each condition were pooled for total RNA isolation. Human: Analysis of IRF7 transcriptome in U3A cell line was performed in duplicates.

Project description:Axis inhibition protein 1 (AXIN), a scaffold protein interacting with various critical molecules, plays a vital role in determining cell fate. However, its impact on the antiviral innate immune response remains largely unknown. Here, we identify AXIN acts as an effective regulator of antiviral innate immunity against both DNA and RNA virus infections. In the resting state, AXIN maintains the stability of IRF3 by preventing p62-mediated autophagic degradation of IRF3. This is achieved by recruiting ubiquitin-specific peptidase 35 (USP35), which removes lysine (K) 48-linked ubiquitination at IRF3 K366. Upon virus infection, AXIN undergoes a phase separation triggered by phosphorylated TBK1. This leads to increased phosphorylation of IRF3 and a boost in IFN-I production. Moreover, KYA1797K, a small molecule that binds to the AXIN RGS domain, enhances the AXIN-IRF3 interaction and promotes the elimination of various highly pathogenic viruses. Clinically, patients with HBV-associated hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) who show reduced AXIN expression in pericarcinoma tissues have low overall and disease-free survival rates, as well as higher HBV levels in their blood. Overall, our findings reveal how AXIN regulates IRF3 signaling and phase separation-mediated antiviral immune responses, underscoring the potential of the AXIN agonist KYA1797K as an effective antiviral agent.

Project description:We report transcript abundance in murine bone marrow-derived macrophages (BMDMs) upon Rickettsia parkeri infection and treatment with type I interferon (IFN-I). Infections and IFN-I treatment were performed in parallel between WT BMDMs and BMDMs lacking genes encoding interferon-responsive factor (IRF) transcription factors, including IRF1, IRF5, and double mutant cells lacking both IRF3 and IRF7. Control cells were uninfected and not treated with IFN-I. The abundance of transcripts between these cells can be compared in order to identify genes specifically regulated by each IRF upon IFN-I treatment.

Project description:In innate immune cells, intracellular sensors such as cGAS-STING stimulate type I/III interferon (IFN) expression, which promotes antiviral defense and immune activation. However, how IFN-I/III expression is controlled in adaptive cells is poorly understood. Here, we identify a transcriptional rheostat orchestrated by RELA that confers human T cells with innate-like abilities to produce IFN-I/III. Despite intact cGAS-STING signaling, IFN-I/III responses are stunted in CD4+ T cells compared with dendritic cells or macrophages. We find that lysine residues in RELA tune the IFN-I/III response at baseline and in response to STING stimulation in CD4+ T cells. This response requires positive feedback driven by cGAS and IRF7 expression. By combining RELA with IRF3 and DNA demethylation, IFN-I/III production in CD4+ T cells reaches levels observed in dendritic cells. IFN-I/III production provides self-protection of CD4+ T cells against HIV infection and enhances the elimination of tumor cells by CAR T cells. Therefore, innate-like functions can be tuned and leveraged in human T cells.
