RNA sequencing of Aedes mosquitoes infected with Zika virus (ZIKV) or Dengue virus (DENV)

ABSTRACT: Zika virus (ZIKV), a pathogen of global health concern, is transmitted to humans by Aedes mosquitoes. However, the molecular interactions between the vector and the virus remain largely unexplored. We demonstrated that ZIKV and dengue virus (DENV) have similar tropism and infection kinetics in two mosquito strains with different degrees of susceptibility to infection. Comparison of Aedes aegypti’s molecular responses to ZIKV and DENV infection indicated that around 40% of the mosquito’s infection-responsive transcriptome is virus-specific. Regulated genes also included key factors of the mosquito’s anti-viral immunity, pointing to the possible involvement of the Toll innate immune pathway. Comparison of ZIKV and DENV infection-responsive transcriptome data to those for yellow fever virus and West Nile virus identified 26 genes likely to play key roles in virus infection of Aedes mosquitoes. Through reverse genetic analyses, we showed that the Toll and the Jak/Stat innate immune pathways mediate increased resistance to ZIKV infection, and the virus use vATPase and inosine-5’-monophosphate dehydrogenase as mosquito’s host factors.

Dengue virus inhibits immune responses in Aedes aegypti cells

Project description:The ability of many viruses to manipulate the host antiviral immune response often results in complex host-pathogen interactions. In order to study the interaction of dengue virus (DENV) with the Aedes aegypti immune response, we have characterized the DENV infection-responsive transcriptome of the immune-competent A. aegypti cell line Aag2. As in mosquitoes, DENV infection transcriptionally activated the cell line Toll pathway and a variety of cellular physiological systems. Most notably, however, DENV infection down-regulated the expression levels of numerous immune signaling molecules and antimicrobial peptides (AMPs). Functional assays showed that transcriptional induction of AMPs from the Toll and IMD pathways in response to bacterial challenge is impaired in DENV-infected cells. In addition, Escherichia coli, a gram-negative bacteria species, grew better when co-cultured with DENV-infected cells than with uninfected cells, suggesting a decreased production of AMPs from the IMD pathway in virus-infected cells. Pre-stimulation of the cell line with gram-positive bacteria prior to DENV infection had no effect on DENV titers, while pre-stimulation with gram-negative bacteria resulted in an increase in DENV titers. These results indicate that DENV is capable of actively suppressing immune responses in the cells it infects, a phenomenon that may have important consequences for virus transmission and insect physiology. Infected (dengue virus or heat-inactivated dengue virus) vs. naive cells. 3 replicates each.

A Vago-like gene enhances dengue and Zika virus dissemination in Aedes aegypti

Project description:Arthropod-borne viruses (arboviruses) such as dengue virus (DENV) and Zika virus (ZIKV) pose a significant threat to global health. Novel approaches to control arbovirus spread are focused on harnessing the antiviral immune system of their main vector, the Aedes aegypti mosquito. In arthropods, genes of the Vago family are often presented as analogs of mammalian cytokines with potential antiviral functions, but the role of Vago genes upon virus infection in Ae. aegypti is largely unknown. We performed a phylogenetic analysis of the Vago gene family in Diptera that prompted us to focus on a Vago-like gene that we named VLG-1. Using CRISPR/Cas9-mediated gene editing, we generated a VLG-1 mutant line of Ae. aegypti that revealed a proviral effect of this gene upon DENV and ZIKV infection. In the absence of VLG-1, virus dissemination throughout the mosquito’s body was impaired, albeit not altering virus transmission rates. A tissue-specific transcriptome analysis revealed that the loss of VLG-1 impacted numerous biological processes potentially linked to viral replication, such as the oxidative stress response. Our results challenge the conventional understanding of Vago-like genes as antiviral factors and underscores the need for further research to elucidate the molecular mechanisms underlying mosquito-arbovirus interactions.

Dengue virus reduces AGPAT1 expression to alter phospholipids and enhance infection in Aedes aegypti

Project description:We characterized how DENV hijacks the mosquito lipidome to identify targets for novel transmission-blocking interventions. To describe metabolic changes throughout the mosquito DENV cycle, we deployed a Liquid chromatography–high resolution mass spectrometry (LC-HRMS) workflow including spectral similarity annotation in cells, midguts and whole mosquitoes at different times post infection. We revealed a major aminophospholipid reconfiguration with an overall early increase, followed by a reduction later in the cycle. We phylogenetically characterized acylglycerolphosphate acyltransferase (AGPAT) enzyme isoforms to identify those that catalyze a rate-limiting step in phospholipid biogenesis, the acylation of lysophosphatidate to phosphatidate. We showed that DENV infection decreased AGPAT1, but did not alter AGPAT2 expression in cells, midguts and mosquitoes. Depletion of either AGPAT1 or AGPAT2 increased aminophospholipids and partially recapitulated DENV-induced reconfiguration before infection in vitro. However, only AGPAT1 depletion promoted infection by maintaining high aminophospholipid concentrations. In mosquitoes, AGPAT1 depletion also partially recapitulated DENV-induced aminophospholipid increase before infection and enhanced infection by maintaining high aminophospholipid concentrations. These results indicate that DENV inhibition of AGPAT1 expression promotes infection by increasing aminophospholipids, as observed in the mosquito’s early DENV cycle. Furthermore, in AGPAT1-depleted mosquitoes, we showed that enhanced infection was associated with increased consumption/redirection of aminophospholipids. Our study suggests that DENV regulates aminophospholipids, especially phosphatidylcholine and phosphatidylethanolamine, by inhibiting AGPAT1 expression to increase aminophospholipid availability for virus multiplication.

RACK1 associates with RNA-binding proteins Vigilin and SERBP1 to influence dengue virus replication

Project description:Dengue virus (DENV), a re-emerging virus transmitted by Aedes mosquitoes, causes severe pathogenesis in humans. No effective treatment is available against this virus. We recently identified the scaffold protein RACK1 as a component of the DENV replication complex, a macromolecular complex essential for viral genome amplification. Here, we show that RACK1 is important for DENV infection. RACK1 mediates DENV replication through binding to the 40S ribosomal subunit. Mass spectrometry analysis of RACK1 partners coupled to a loss-of-function screen identified the RNA binding proteins Vigilin and SERBP1 as DENV host dependency factors. Vigilin and SERBP1 interact with DENV viral RNA (vRNA), forming a ternary complex with RACK1 to mediate viral replication. Overall, our results indicate that RACK1 recruits Vigilin and SERBP1, linking the DENV vRNA to the translation machinery for optimal translation and replication.

Analysis of Gene Expression in the Recovered Mouse Brain following Zika Virus Infection

Project description:Zika virus (ZIKV) is a member of the Flaviviridae family, transmitted by Aedes mosquitoes. ZIKV can be transmitted from pregnant woman to fetus and causes microcephaly and neuronal defects. Patients infected with ZIKV showed increased levels of proinflammatory cytokines compared to healthy individuals and neurological changes even after recovery. However, the detailed mechanism of how neuronal defects occurs after recovery from ZIKV infection has never been investigated in vivo. Here, we found that viral RNA loads were highest in mouse brain tissue 7 days after ZIKV infection and were equivalent to uninfected controls after 21 days, suggesting that mice recovered after 21 days of ZIKV infection. To explore the pathological mechanisms of neuronal defects after recovery from ZIKV infection, we performed RNA-sequencing in mouse cerebral cortex obtained 7 days and 21 days after ZIKV infection.

Global transcriptome analysis of Aedes aegypti mosquitoes in response to Zika virus infection

Project description:Zika virus (ZIKV) of the Flaviviridae family is a recently emerged mosquito-borne virus that has been implicated in the surge of the number of microcephaly instances in south America. The virus is transmitted mainly by the mosquito Aedes aegypti that also vectors dengue virus. Considering rather recent rapid spread of the virus and its declaration as a global health emergency by the World Health Organization, little is known about the interactions of the virus with the mosquito vector. In this study, we investigated the transcriptome profiles of whole Ae. aegypti mosquitoes in response to ZIKV infection at 2, 7 and 14 days post-infection using deep sequencing. Results showed a large number of transcripts were altered at each time point following infection, but 18 transcripts were commonly changed at the three time points. The outcomes provide a basic understanding of Ae. aegypti responses to ZIKV and help determining host factors involved in replication or anti-viral response against the virus.

Zika virus directly infects human peripheral neurons and induces cell death

Project description:Zika virus (ZIKV), a flavivirus transmitted primarily by Aedes mosquitoes, has spread to 59 countries and territories throughout the world. ZIKV-infected patients can have several symptoms and there is scientific consensus that ZIKV is a cause of microcephaly. Most studies are focusing on the central nervous system (CNS), and it is largely unknown whether ZIKV also affects the developing peripheral nervous system. Here, using a human pluripotent stem cell-based model, we demonstrated that Puerto Rican ZIKV strain, PRVABC59, efficiently infects human neural crest cells (hNCCs). In contrast to little infection of CNS neurons, ZIKV readily infects human peripheral neurons (hPNs), leading to cell death. Global gene expression analyses of infected hNCCs and hPNs reveal transcriptional dysregulation, notably of cell-death- and cell-cycle-related pathways. Our results identify hNCCs and hPNs as a direct ZIKV target and provide a framework to investigate the ZIKV pathology on the peripheral neurons.

Interactome of DENV2 NS1 and NS5 in Aedes albopictus mosquito cells

Project description:Efficient virus replication in its vector, Aedes mosquitoes, is essential for the transmission of arboviral diseases like dengue virus (DENV) in populations. In order to identify RNA-independent host factors involved in DENV replication in mosquitoes, we established a system expressing all non-structural proteins within the context of the macro protein complex as observed during viral infections. Mosquito host factors interacting with 3xFLAGED-tagged DENV non-structural proteins NS1 or NS5 proteins were identified by label-free mass spectrometry.
