Gene expression profile in freshly isolated monocytes from patients with diffuse cutaneous scleroderma (dcSSc) compared to healthy donors (HDs)

ABSTRACT: Monocytes/macrophages are activated in several autoimmune diseases, including systemic sclerosis (scleroderma, SSc), with increased expression of IFN-regulatory genes and inflammatory cytokines, suggesting dysregulation of the innate immune response in autoimmunity. Recently, we found that EBV is deregulated in SSc with abnormal expression of viral lytic-genes in PBMCs and skin. Since monocytes/macrophages are involved in innate immune recognition of EBV/lytic infection, we sought to determine whether EBV might contribute to their activation in SSc. In this study, using recombinant-EBV we infected monocytes from SSc and healthy donors (HDs), we found that viral replication is essential for inducing the expression of TLR8 in EBV-infected primary monocytes. Markers of activated monocytes, such as IFN-regulated genes and chemokines, were up-regulated in SSc- and HD-EBV-infected monocytes. Inhibiting TLR8 expression reduced virally-induced-TLR8 in THP-1 infected cells, demonstrating that innate immune activation by infectious EBV is partially dependent on TLR8. Viral lytic-mRNA and -proteins were detected in freshly isolated SSc monocytes. Microarray analysis substantiated the evidence of an increased IFN signature and altered level of TLR8 expression in SSc monocytes carrying infectious EBV compared to HD monocytes.

Proteomics of EBV-infected lytic and refractory cells

Project description:Most humans are infected with Epstein-Barr virus (EBV), a cancer-causing virus. While EBV generally persists silently in B lymphocytes, periodic lytic (re-)activation of latent virus is central to its life cycle and to most EBV-related diseases. However, a substantial fraction of EBV-infected B cells and tumor cells in a population is refractory to lytic activation. This resistance to lytic activation directly and profoundly impacts viral persistence and effectiveness of oncolytic therapy for EBV+ cancers. To identify the mechanisms that underlie susceptibility to EBV-lytic activation, we used host protein-expression profiling of separated-lytic and -refractory cells.

STING is essential for TLR8 induced IFN

Project description:The innate immune system is equipped with multiple receptors to detect microbial nucleic acids and induce type I interferon (IFN) to restrict viral replication. When dysregulated these receptor pathways induce inflammation in response to host nucleic acids and promote development and persistence of autoimmune diseases like Systemic Lupus Erythematosus (SLE). IFN production is regulated by the Interferon Regulatory Factor (IRF) transcription factor family of proteins that function downstream of several innate immune receptors such as Toll-like receptors (TLRs) and Stimulator of Interferon Genes (STING). Although both TLRs and STING activate the same downstream molecules, the pathway by which TLRs and STING activate IFN response are thought to be independent. Here we show that STING plays a previously undescribed role in human TLR8 signaling. Stimulation with the TLR8 ligands induced IFN secretion in primary human monocytes, and inhibition of STING reduced IFN secretion from primary monocytes from 8 healthy donors. We demonstrate that TLR8-induced IRF activity was reduced by STING inhibitors. Moreover, TLR8-induced IRF activity was blocked by inhibition or loss of IKKε, but not TBK1. Bulk RNA transcriptomic analysis supported a model where TLR8 induces transcriptional responses associated with SLE that can be downregulated by inhibition of STING. These data demonstrate that STING is required for full TLR8-to-IRF signaling and provide evidence for a new framework of crosstalk between cytosolic and endosomal innate immune receptors, which could be leveraged to treat IFN driven autoimmune diseases.

Mapping the heterogeneity of pDCs and Monocytes of systemic sclerosis at single cell level [scRNA-seq]

Project description:Systemic sclerosis (SSc) is an uncommon disease characterized by elevated autoantibody production, vasculopathy and fibrosis of the skin and internal organs. pDCs are the core cell type to produce type I IFN and contributes to the ISG signature and SSc progression. Using single-cell RNA sequencing, we profiled 32529 pDCs enriched and T cell depleted peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs) from 4 patients with SSc and 4 matched controls. Increased CD16+ monocytes and decreased cDCs are the major changes in the cell composition between SSc and heathy controls. Increased expression of interferon-stimulated genes (ISGs) and apoptotic genes distinguished cells from patients with SSc from healthy control cells. The high ISG expression signature (ISGhi) derived from a small number of transcriptionally defined subpopulations within major cell types, including monocytes, natural killer cells, conventional and plasmacytoid dendritic cells, B cells. Profiling of 10976 pDCs revealed a newly identified PTGDS+ population and a clear increased ISG hi clusters in SSc pDCs. Profiling of 13317 Monocytes revealed increased CD16+ Monocytes and a clear increased ISG hi clusters in SSc monocytes. We then compared the TLRs-IFN response of the pDCs from SSc and Healthy control. RNASeq revealed SSc pDCs enables an unexpected TLR8-IFN signaling to increase the IFN signature. This study lays the groundwork for resolving the origin of the SSc transcriptional signatures and the disease heterogeneity towards precision medicine applications.

Syncytin1 sequesters viral LF2 to enhance the Epstein-Barr virus lytic phase

Project description:Previously, we identified Syncytin1 to be expressed in human B cells and enhance EBV ability to undergo lytic replication. To gain mechanistic insight, we performed liquid chromatography tandem mass spectrometry (LC-MS/MS) on tryptic peptides from immunoprecipitated FLAG-tagged Syncytin-1 in latently infected EBV+ Burkitt lymphoma cells. This revealed a number of cellular proteins as potential Syncytin-1 interacting partners during latency and/or during the lytic phase as well as two EBV lytic phase proteins, the viral protein kinase and LF2, a negative regulator of EBV lytic gene transcription. We now find that Syncytin1 reduces the association between LF2 and the EBV replication and transcription activator to promote EBV lytic gene expression.

Changes in cellular transcriptome in response to inhibitors of Epstein-Barr virus

Project description:Burkitt lymphoma cells can be latently infected with Epstein-Barr virus (EBV). The virus may be activated into its lytic cycle by small molecules, such as sodium butyrate. Other molecules, such as valproate and valpromide, block viral lytic reactivation. These pharmacological agents alter the cellular physiology that controls viral lytic gene expression. Changes in the cellular transcription were measured in response to one activator and two inhibitors of the Epstein-Barr virus lytic cycle in order to identify cellular genes that are potential regulators of the viral life cycle.

Signal Transducer and Activator of Transcription 3 limits Epstein-Barr virus lytic-activation in B lymphocytes.

Project description:We used microarrays to identify genes differentially expressed in EBV-infected human B cells supporting lytic replication vs. those refractory to EBV lytic replication. We used serum from EBV-positive subject (compared to serum from EBV-negative subject) to FACS-separate lytic and refractory cells following treatment of HH514-16 cells with NaB, a lytic cycle inducing agent. RNA from sorted-lytic and sorted-refractory cells were hybridized to microarray.

Nascent transcriptomics reveal cellular pro-lytic factors upregulated upstream of the latency-to-lytic switch protein of Epstein-Barr virus

Project description:Lytic activation from latency is a key transition point in the life cycle of herpesviruses. Epstein-Barr virus (EBV) is a human herpesvirus that can cause lymphomas, epithelial cancers, and other diseases, most of which require the lytic cycle. While the lytic cycle of EBV can be triggered by chemicals and immunologic ligands, the lytic cascade is only activated when expression of the EBV latency-to-lytic switch protein ZEBRA is turned on. ZEBRA then transcriptionally activates other EBV genes and together with some of those gene products ensures completion of the lytic cycle. However, not every latently-infected cell exposed to a lytic trigger turns expression of ZEBRA on, resulting in responsive and refractory subpopulations. What governs this dichotomy? By examining the nascent transcriptome following exposure to a lytic trigger, we find that several cellular genes are transcriptionally upregulated temporally upstream of ZEBRA. These genes regulate lytic susceptibility to variable degrees in latently-infected cells that respond to mechanistically distinct lytic triggers. While increased expression of these cellular genes defines a pro-lytic state, such upregulation also runs counter to the well-known mechanism of viral nuclease-mediated host shut-off that is activated downstream of ZEBRA. Furthermore, a subset of upregulated cellular genes is transcriptionally repressed downstream of ZEBRA, indicating an additional mode of virus-mediated host shut-off through transcriptional repression. Thus, increased transcription of a set of host genes contributes to a pro-lytic state that allows a subpopulation of cells to support the EBV lytic cycle.
