Rhesus placenta transcriptome in the setting of congenital RhCMV infection

ABSTRACT: Cytomegalovirus (CMV) is the most common congenital infection worldwide, causing deafness and neurodevelopmental delay in infected infants. Preexisting maternal immunity to CMV is known to influence the incidence and severity of congenital infection. To establish the role of maternal antibody in protection against placental CMV transmission, 6 rhesus CMV (RhCMV)-seronegative rhesus monkey dams were CD4+ T cell depleted at the end of the first trimester of pregnancy and treated with either a single dose of standardly-produced hyperimmune globulin (HIG) (n=3) or a dose-optimized regimen of a potently-neutralizing HIG (n=3) prior to IV inoculation with a mixture of RhCMV strains. Passive infusion with HIG provided complete protection against fetal loss (0/6 HIG-treated vs. 5/6 control dams aborted; p=0.015). Furthermore, the dose-optimized, highly-neutralizing HIG product reduced the magnitude and diversity of maternal plasma RhCMV populations and inhibited placental transmission of RhCMV (0/3 transmitted), suggesting that pre-existing highly-neutralizing antibodies are sufficient to prevent congenital CMV infection and disease. In this study, we sought to investigate the placental transcriptome to determine whether: a) RhCMV congenital infection was being controlled at the level of the placenta, b) what genes are up-regulated following RhCMV congenital infection, and c) whether there are any genes associated with protection against viral infection.

Cytomegalovirus-mediated expansion of IL-15-responsive innate-memory cells with SIV killing function

Project description:We investigated the effects of rhesus CMV (RhCMV) on composition and function of the immune system in young macaques. Within months of infection, RhCMV was associated with impressive changes in antigen presenting cells, T cells, and NK cells—and marked expansion of innate-memory CD8+ T cells. These cells express high levels of NKG2A/C and the IL-2- and IL-15-receptor beta chain, CD122. IL-15 was sufficient to drive differentiation of the cells in vitro and in vivo. Expanded NKG2A/C+CD122+CD8+ T cells in RhCMV-infected macaques, but not their NKG2-negative counterparts, were endowed with cytotoxicity against class I-deficient K562 targets and prompt IFN-ɣ production in response to stimulation with IL-12 and IL-18. Because RhCMV clone 68-1 forms the viral backbone of RhCMV-vectored SIV vaccines, we also investigated immune changes following administration of RhCMV 68-1-vectored SIV vaccines. These vaccines led to impressive expansion of NKG2A/C+CD8+ T cells with capacity to inhibit SIV replication ex vivo. Thus, CMV infection and CMV-vectored vaccination drive expansion of functional innate-like CD8 cells via host IL-15 production, suggesting that innate-memory expansion could be achieved by other vaccine platforms expressing IL-15.

Human Cytomegalovirus modifies placental small extracellular vesicle secretion and composition to enhance infection of fetal recipient cells

Project description:Human cytomegalovirus (hCMV) primo-infection, reinfection and/or reactivation is a major issue during pregnancy and affects 1% of live births in western countries, making hCMV the most frequently transmitted virus in utero. Despite the extensive research conducted so far, the pathophysiology of this congenital infection remains unclear. Recently, increasing evidence point out the role of small extracellular vesicles (sEVs) in cell-cell communication underlying the feto-placenta-maternal dialogue during pregnancy. In this study, we examined the impact of hCMV infection on the protein composition and function of placental sEVs. We observed that infection of placental cells led to an alteration of protein composition of their secreted sEVs, suggesting that placental sEVs may acquire a proviral phenotype. Functional studies performed on fetal recipient cells, notably neural stem cells, confirmed the ability of sEVs produced by infected cells to facilitate further infection of naive recipient cells. Altogether, our study demonstrates that placental sEVs are key players of hCMV pathophysiology during congenital infection, and may favor the transmission of the virus towards the fetus.

Decidual-tissue resident memory T cells protect against nonprimary human cytomegalovirus infection at the maternal-fetal interface

Project description:Congenital cytomegalovirus (cCMV) is the most common intrauterine infection, leading to infant neurodevelopmental disabilities. An improved knowledge of correlates of protection against cCMV is needed to guide prevention strategies. Here, we employed a unique ex vivo model of human CMV (HCMV) infection in decidual tissues of women with and without preconception immunity, recapitulating nonprimary versus primary infection at the authentic maternofetal transmission site. We showed that decidual tissues of women with preconception immunity exhibited intrinsic resistance to HCMV, mounting a rapid activation of tissue resident memory CD8+ and CD4+ T cells upon nonprimary infection. We further revealed the role of HCMV-specific decidual-tissue resident CD8+ T cells in local protection against nonprimary HCMV infection. The findings could inform the development of vaccine against cCMV, and provide insights for further studies of the integrity of immune defense against cCMV and other pathogens in the human maternal-fetal interface.

Project description:Recombinant RhCMV was created to study super-infection of Rhesus macaques. These viruses (RhCMV Î178;RhCMV Î182-189;RhCMV Î178Î182-189) were co-hybridized with a wild-type BAC-derived RhCMV to a RhCMV tiling array to ensure that there were no additional mutations beyond the intended deleted regions.

Human Otic progenitor cell models of congenital hearing loss applied to to Zika virus and cytomegalovirus infections

Project description:Congenital hearing loss is a common chronic condition affecting children in both developed and developing nations. In many cases, congenital hearing loss is ultimately attributed to viral infection, most often by cytomegalovirus (CMV), but also in Congenital Zika Syndrome (CZS). The mechanisms by which CMV and ZIKV virus cause these cranial developmental defects have not been elucidated. Inner ear development has been particularly difficult to study, given the inaccessibility and scarcity of the tissue in animal models or on human autopsy; however, it is now possible to culture stem-cell derived otic progenitor cells (OPCs). Here we describe successful in-vitro infection of OPCs with either CMV or ZIKV. We find that ZIKV infection rapidly and strongly induces the expression of type I IFN and inflammatory genes, while simultaneously decreasing otic cell viability in culture that is at least in part attributable to apoptosis. In contrast, CMV infection did not appear to elicit either of these effects and instead demonstrated a clear dysregulation of the expression of many key genes and pathways associated with inner ear development and function, including Cochlin, NGFR, SOX11 and TGF-β signaling. These findings suggest that ZIKV and CMV infections cause congenital hearing loss through very different pathways; that is, by killing progenitor cells in the case of ZIKV infection, and via disruption of critical developmental pathways in the case of CMV infection. In addition to demonstrating differential hCMV and ZIKV pathogenesis mechanisms in OPCs, this study highlights the advantages of otic progenitor cell models for the study of congenital hearing loss induced by viral infection.

Placental gene expression in intestinal nematode-infected and protein-deficient mice

Project description:Protein deficiency and intestinal parasite infection during pregnancy impair fetal growth through passage of signals from the maternal environment which signal impairment of fetal growth. The placenta is an important regulator of the transfer of these signals through differential expression of key placental genes. We used microarrays to examine placental gene expression responses to maternal protein deficiency (6% vs. 24% protein) and Heligmosomoides bakeri infection. 2x2 factorial.
