Comprehensive proteomics identification of IFN-λ3-regulated anti-viral proteins in HBV-transfected cells

ABSTRACT: Hepatitis B virus (HBV) causes both acute and chronic liver inflammation. Approximately 600,000 CHB patients each year die of HBV-related diseases such as cirrhosis and liver cancer. Therefore, CHB remains a global health concern. Although there have been anti-HBV agents for treating CHB, they have some limitations including viral-drug resistance and adverse effects. Type III IFN or IFN-λ is promising to use as anti-HBV agents because of its anti-viral activities like type I IFNs. In addition, the expression of its receptor, IFNLR1, is limited only in epithelial cells including hepatocytes. Thus, treatment with IFN-lambda results in less side effects compared to IFN-alpha treatment. IFN-lambdas have been shown to inhibit the replication of several viruses including IAV, DENV, EMCV, HIV, HCV, and HBV; however, there have been no studies on the effects of IFN-λ3, the highest activity among other subtypes, on HBV replication. Therefore, this study aims to determine antiviral activities of IFN-λ3 against HBV replication and to investigate its molecular mechanism responsible for suppressing HBV propagation. The results showed that HBV transcripts and amount of intracellular HBV DNA were decreased in HepG2.2.15 cells, stable HBV-transfected hepatoblastoma cell line, treated with IFN-λ3 in a dose-dependent manner. This indicated that IFN-λ3 could inhibit HBV replication. Next, we performed quantitative proteomics to investigate the proteome changes in HepG2.2.15 treated with IFN-λ3. The proteins that changed their expressions were involved in several biological processes such as defense to viral infection, immune responses, cell-cell adhesion, transcription, translation, and metabolism. We further confirmed the proteomics results by immunoblotting assay. Consistent with MS data, it found that the expression of OAS3, SAMHD1 and STAT1 were increased as a result of IFN-λ3 stimulation. These results indicated that proteomics results were reproducible and reliable. Finally, we proposed 3 possible mechanisms involved in suppressing HBV replication including i.) IFN-λ3 induced anti-viral proteins affecting many steps in HBV life cycle ii.) IFN-λ3 promoted antigen processing and antigen presentation and iii.) IFN-λ3 rescued RIG-I signaling to promote both type I and type III IFN production.

Interferon lambda (IFN-λ) is a relatively unexplored, yet promising antiviral agent. IFN-λ has recently been tested in clinical trials of chronic hepatitis B virus infection (CHB), with the advantage that side effects may be limited compared with IFN-α, as IFN-λ receptors are found only in epithelial cells. To date, IFN-λ's downstream signaling pathway remains largely unelucidated, particularly via proteomics methods. Here, we report that IFN-λ3 inhibits HBV replication in HepG2.2.15 cells, redu ...[more]

Project description:The same entry pathway is shared by HBV and HDV. Both viruses attach to hepatocytes via heparansulfate proteoglycan and utilize sodium taurocholate co-transporting polypeptide (NTCP) for a specifc entry. This specific entry step is inhibited by Myrcludex B, a 47-aa lipopeptide myristoylated at the N-terminus. Here we compared the cellular response in the gene expression level triggerred by both viruses. The microarray data shows that HBV infection leads to a silent response but HDV infection triggers high level of innate response such as inteferon-stimulated genes (ISG) expression. Moreover, the response depends on the hepatic cell lines used for infection. Compared to HepG2 cells, HuH7 can not induce ISG even infected by HDV. Abstract of manuscript: Background & aims: Hepatitis B virus (HBV) and D virus (HDV) co-infections cause the most severe form of viral hepatitis. HDV induces an innate immune response, but it is unknown how the host cell senses HDV and if this defense affects HDV replication. We aim to characterize interferon (IFN) activation by HDV, identify the responsible sensor and evaluate the effect of IFN on HDV replication. Methods: HDV and HBV susceptible hepatoma cell lines and primary human hepatocytes (PHH) were used for infection studies. Viral markers and cellular gene expression were analyzed at different time points after infection. Pattern recognition receptors (PRRs) required for HDV-mediated IFN activation and the impact on HDV replication were studied using stable knock-down or overexpression of the PRRs. Results: Microarray analysis revealed that HDV but not HBV infection activated a broad range of interferon stimulated genes (ISGs) in HepG2NTCP cells. HDV strongly activated IFN-β and IFN-λ in cell lines and PHH. HDV induced IFN levels remained unaltered upon RIG-I or TLR3 knock-down, but were almost completely abolished upon MDA5 depletion. Conversely, overexpression of MDA5 but not RIG-I and TLR3 in Huh7.5NTCP cells partially restored ISG induction. During long-term infection, IFN levels gradually diminished in both HepG2NTCP and HepaRGNTCP cell lines. MDA5 depletion had little effect on HDV replication despite dampening HDV-induced IFN response. Moreover, treatment with type I or type III IFNs did not abolish HDV replication. Conclusions: Active replication of HDV induces an IFN-β/λ response, which is predominantly mediated by MDA5. This IFN response and exogenous IFN treatment have only a moderate effect on HDV replication in vitro indicating the adaption of HDV replication to an IFN activated state.

Project description:Type I interferon (IFN), namely IFN- α, and B cell aberrations are long recognized in systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) pathogenesis. Type I IFN receptor blockade has undergone clinical trials in SLE with varying degrees of success. Type III IFN (IFN-λ) produce a gene signature currently indistinguishable from that of type I in responsive cell types. IFN-λ are not blocked by type I IFN receptor blockade as they utilize a unique receptor (IFNLR1). Type III IFN are appreciated to have an important role in viral infection at epithelial barriers where IFNLR1 is strongly expressed. The effects of IFN-λ on immune cells remain understudied and are different between human and murine models. We have previously shown that human B cells can transcribe type I IFN genes after IFN-λ treatment including those associated with SLE. We have found that IFN-λ is detected in the serum of human SLE patients and correlates with IgD- CD27- CD21- CD24- (DN2) B cells, a compartment which contains CD11c+ age/autoimmunity B cells (ABC). ABC are a target of interest as recent studies suggest they are poised for plasma cell differentiation and enriched in autoreactivity and thus have the potential to contribute to SLE pathogenesis. Results: Naïve and DN cells display a prominent type I IFN gene expression profile in SLE. Transcript for type I, type II, and type III IFN receptors (IFNAR1, IFNAR2, IFNGR1, IFNGR2, IFNLR1, and IL10RB) are detected in HD and SLE B cells. CD11c+ CD21- frequency increased in DN compared to naïve B cells for SLE and HD (both p< 0.001). The mean and range of CD11c+ CD21- frequency was higher in SLE DN (30.7± 9.5%, mean±SEM; range 4.8-74.7%) compared to HD DN (7.6%±1.0%,3.6-9.4%). Increased IFNLR1 transcript correlated with CD11c+ CD21- B cell expansion (r2=0.922, p<0.0001). Increased pSTAT1 after IFN-α2 treatment is found in monocytes, T cells, and B cells but only in the B cells after IFN-λ1 treatment. Naïve, DN, switched, and unswitched memory HD B cells are responsive to type I and type III IFN, but demonstrated a higher pSTAT1 fold change with type I IFN treatment compared to type III IFN. In all B cell subsets, CD11c+ cells had a higher pSTAT1 fold change after IFN-λ1 stimulation than did CD11c- B cells. In HD with well-defined populations of CD11c+ CD21- DN cells, pSTAT1 fold change for IFN-λ approached that of IFN-α2. Conclusions: All human B cell subsets defined by CD27 and IgD respond to IFN-α and IFN-λ, but those expressing CD11c+ have increased responsiveness to IFN-λ. CD11c+ cells expand in SLE and associate with autoreactive plasma cell development. Thus, the role of IFN-λ may take on increased clinical significance in the setting type I IFN receptor blockade. These results suggest IFN-λ is an underappreciated driver of the IFN signature and B cell aberrations in SLE.
