Immune Escape via A Transient Gene Expression Program Enables Productive Replication of A Latent Pathogen

ABSTRACT: How type I / II interferons (IFNs) prevent periodic re-emergence of latent pathogens in tissues of diverse cell-types remains unknown. Using homogenous neuron cultures latently-infected with herpes simplex virus (HSV), we show that extrinsic type I or II IFN act directly on neurons to induce unique gene expression signatures and inhibit the reactivation-specific burst of viral genome-wide transcription called Phase I. Surprisingly, IFNs suppressed reactivation only during a limited period early in Phase I preceding productive virus growth. Sensitivity to type II IFN was selectively lost if viral ICP0, which normally accumulates later in Phase I, was expressed prior to reactivation. Thus, IFNs suppress reactivation by preventing initial expression of latent genomes but are ineffective once Phase I viral proteins accumulate and limit IFN action. This demonstrates that inducible reactivation from latency is only transiently sensitive to IFNs. Moreover, it illustrates how latent pathogens escape host immune control to periodically replicate by rapidly deploying an interferon-resistant state.

Stage-specific IFN-induced and IFN gene expression reveals convergence of type I and type II IFN and highlights their role in both acute and chronic phases of pathogenic SIV infection

Project description:Interferons (IFNs) play a major role in controlling viral infections including HIV/SIV infections. Persistent up-regulation of interferon stimulated genes (ISGs) is associated with chronic immune activation and progression in SIV/HIV infections, but the respective contribution of different IFNs is unclear. We analyzed the expression of IFN genes and ISGs in tissues of SIV infected macaques to understand the respective roles of type I and type II IFNs. Both IFN types were induced in lymph nodes during early stage of primary infection and to some extent in rectal biopsies but not in PBMCs. Induction of Type II IFN expression persisted during the chronic phase, in contrast to undetectable induction of type I IFN expression. Global gene expression analysis with a major focus on ISGs revealed that at both acute and chronic infection phases most differentially expressed ISGs were inducible by both type I and type II IFNs and displayed the highest increases, indicating strong convergence and synergy between type I and type II IFNs. These results suggest that IFN- strongly contribute to shape ISG upregulation in addition to type I IFN. The analysis of functional signatures of ISG expression revealed temporal changes in IFN expression patterns identifying phasespecific ISGs.

The HUSH-SETDB1-MORC2 epigenetic repressor complex restricts herpesvirus infection in association with PML nuclear bodies

Project description:The establishment of latent herpes simplex virus 1 (HSV-1) infection is controlled by promyelocytic leukemia nuclear bodies (PML NBs). Viral genomes are recruited to PML NBs structures and chromatinized by repressive H3.3K9me3 modified H3.3 histone variant to form viral DNA-containing PML-NBs (vDCP NBs). Exactly how this occurs is unclear. Here we identify an essential role for the HUSH complex and its SETDB1 and MORC2 effectors in the establishment and maintenance of latent herpes simplex virus 1 (HSV-1) infection. ChIP-seq analyses conducted on latently/quiescently infected primary human fibroblasts highlight the association of the H3K9me3 mark with the entire viral genome. We demonstrate the necessity of HUSH, SETDB1, and MORC2 in the establishment of repressive heterochromatin in vDCP NBs. Depletion of these components prior to viral infection results in reduced H3K9me3 levels across the entirety of latent/quiescent HSV-1 genomes, with minimal impact on the cellular genome as a whole. Once latency is established, depletion of HUSH, SETDB1, or MORC2 by shRNAs or the HIV-2ROD Vpx protein, induces the reactivation of HSV-1 in infected primary human fibroblasts as well as in human induced pluripotent stem cell-derived sensory neurons (hiPSDN). We discovered that the viral protein ICP0 induces MORC2 degradation via the proteasome machinery. This process is concurrent with ICP0 capability to initiate full HSV-1 reactivation, as well as the significant reactivation of HSV-1 upon MORC2 depletion in hiPSDN. Our data demonstrate the potent antiviral restriction activity of the HUSH/SETDB1/MORC2 complex to a non-integrated human herpesvirus, its close association with PML NBs, and introduces a new target for anti-herpesvirus therapy.

Kidney gene expression profile following the transplant-induced reactivation of MCMV

Project description:Reactivation of latent HCMV is a significant infectious complication of organ transplantation, and current therapies target viral replication once reactivation of transcriptionally silent, latent virus has already occurred. The specific molecular pathways that activate viral gene expression are not well understood. Our studies aim to identify these factors, with the goal of developing novel therapies that prevent transcriptional reactivation in transplant recipients. MCMV is a valuable model for studying latency and reactivation of CMV induced by organ transplantation. We previously demonstrated that transplantation of MCMV-latently infected kidneys into allogeneic recipients induces transcriptional reactivation of immediate early (IE) gene expression within 48 hr. We used microarrays to profile global mouse kidney gene expression associated with transcriptional reactivation of MCMV immediate early gene expression at 48 hr after transplant of MCMV latently infected kidneys into allogeneic recipients. We identified differentially expressed genes and pathways associated with both early acute rejection and reactivation of MCMV. control vs. allograft

Deciphering of the human interferome and its kinetics of protein induction and repression by mass spectrometry-based quantitative proteome analysis

Project description:Interferons (IFNs) are pleotropic cytokines secreted upon encounter of pathogens and tumors. Applying their antipathogenic, antiproliferative and immune stimulatory capacities, recombinant IFNs are frequently prescribed as drugs to treat different diseases. IFNs act by changing the transcription of cells. Due to characteristics like rapid induction and signaling, IFNs represent prototypic model systems for various aspects of biomedical research. In respect to the signaling and activated promoters, IFNs can be subdivided in two groups. Here, alterations of the cellular proteome of human cells treated with IFN and IFN were elucidated in a time-dependent manner by mass spectrometry-based quantitative proteome analysis. The majority of protein regulations were strongly IFN type- and time-dependent. In addition to the expected upregulation of IFN-induced proteins, an astonishing number of proteins become profoundly repressed especially by IFN. Taken together, our comprehensive analysis deciphers the human interferome and its kinetics of protein induction and repression.

Glutamine supplementation suppresses herpes simplex virus reactivation III

Project description:Chronic viral infections are difficult to treat and new approaches, particularly those involving enhancing immune responses are needed. Herpes simplex virus (HSV) establishes latency, reactivates frequently, and breakthrough reactivation can occur despite suppressive antiviral therapy. Virus-specific T cells are important to control HSV, and activated T cells require increased metabolism of glutamine for their proliferation. We found that treatment of HSV-1 latently infected mice and HSV-2 infected guinea pigs with supplemental oral glutamine reduced virus reactivation. Transcriptome analysis of mice treated with glutamine showed that several interferon (IFN)-γ inducible genes were upregulated. Unlike wild-type mice, supplemental glutamine was ineffective in reducing the rate of HSV-1 reactivation in IFN-γ knock-out mice. Mice treated with glutamine had higher numbers of HSV-specific IFN-γ producing CD8 T cells in latently infected ganglia. Thus, glutamine may enhance the IFN-γ-associated immune response and reduce the rate of reactivation of latent virus infection.

Transcription profiling of human A549 cell line treated with type I and II interferons vs. controls

Project description:Type I and type II interferons (IFNs) bind to different cell surface receptors but activate overlapping signal transduction pathways. We examined the effects of a type I IFN (IFN-acon1) and a type II iFN (IFN-g1b) on gene experession in A549 cells and demonstrate that there is a common set of genes modulated by both IFNs as well as a set of gene specifically regulated by each, reflecting the activation of different signaling pathways. In particualr, IFN-g induced many more genes of the signaling pathways, apoptosis, and cytokine interactions than did IFN-a. Even with genes induced by both IFNs there were distinctive quantitativive differences in expression. IFN-g1b plays a major role in the induction and regulation of the complement pathway. Previous work has shown a synergistic antivral and antiproliferative effect of type I and type II IFNs in cell culture and in the treament of tumors in mice. We demonstrate that a majority of genes showed and additive effect of IFN-acon1 and IFN-g1b, but a subset of gene is synergistically induced; these incluce ISG10, MX2, OAS2, and other genes known to be involved in the antiviral response, TRAIL (TNFSF10) and caspases involved in apoptosis and chemokine genes RANTES, CXCL10, and CXCL11. Greater than additive transcription of some of these genes in the presence of both IFNs was confirmed by real-time kinetic RT-PCR. Elevated induction of many of these genes may be sufficient to explain the synergistic antiviral and antitumor effects of this combination of IFNS in vivo.

Human IRF1 governs macrophagic IFN-γ immunity to mycobacteria

Project description:Inborn errors of human IFN-γ-dependent macrophagic immunity underlie mycobacterial diseases, whereas inborn errors of IFN-α/β-dependent intrinsic immunity underlie viral diseases. Both types of IFNs induce the transcription factor IRF1. We describe unrelated children with inherited complete IRF1 deficiency and early-onset, multiple, life-threatening diseases caused by weakly virulent mycobacteria and related intramacrophagic pathogens. These children have no history of severe viral disease, despite exposure to many viruses, including SARS-CoV-2, which is life-threatening in individuals with impaired IFN-α/β immunity. In leukocytes or fibroblasts stimulated in vitro, IRF1-dependent responses to IFN-γ are, both quantitatively and qualitatively, much stronger than those to IFN-α/β. Moreover, IRF1-deficient mononuclear phagocytes do not control mycobacteria and related pathogens normally when stimulated with IFN-γ. By contrast, IFN-α/β-dependent intrinsic immunity to nine viruses, including SARS-CoV-2, is almost normal in IRF1-deficient fibroblasts. Human IRF1 is essential for IFN-γ-dependent macrophagic immunity to mycobacteria, but largely redundant for IFN-α/β-dependent antiviral immunity.

Identification of SLFN5 as an intrinsic inhibitor of viral transcription antagonized by the herpes simplex virus ubiquitin ligase ICP0

Project description:Intrinsic antiviral host factors are proteins that can confer cellular defense by limiting virus replication. Viruses hijack ubiquitin machinery to modify the cellular proteome to subvert these host defenses. The herpes simplex virus 1 (HSV-1) expresses ICP0, which functions as an E3 ubiquitin ligase required to promote infection. Cellular substrates of ICP0 have been discovered as host barriers to infection but the mechanisms for inhibition of viral gene expression are not fully understood. To identify new restriction factors antagonized by ICP0, we compared the proteomes associated with viral DNA (vDNA) during HSV-1 infection with wild-type (WT) virus and a mutant lacking functional ICP0 (ΔICP0). We identified the cellular protein Schlafen 5 (SLFN5) as a new ICP0 target that binds vDNA during HSV-1 ΔICP0 infection. We demonstrated that ICP0 mediates ubiquitination of SLFN5 which leads to its proteasomal degradation. In the absence of ICP0, we demonstrate SLFN5 binds vDNA to represses HSV-1 transcription by limiting accessibility of RNA polymerase II to viral promoters. These results identify SLFN5 as a new restriction factor that inhibits viral transcription and document the first viral countermeasure reported to overcome SLFN antiviral activity.
