Project description:Orthohantaviruses are viruses generally carried by rodents in which they do not cause overt disease. Seoul orthohantavirus (SEOV) predominantly exists as a persistent infection in the omnipresent reservoir host, the Norway rat, Rattus norvegicus. Upon respiratory transmission via aerosolized infectious rodent excreta to humans, SEOV causes an acute disease named hemorrhagic fever with renal syndrome (HFRS). Lack of disease in rats is attributed to downregulation of pro-inflammatory and upregulation of regulatory host responses. As lung microvascular endothelial cells (LMECs) represent a primary target of infection in both human and rats, infections in these cells provide a unique opportunity to study the central role of LMECs in the dichotomy between pathogenicity in both species. In this study, host responses to SEOV infection in primary human and rat LMECs were directly compared on a transcriptional level. As infection of rat LMECs was more efficient than human LMECs, most anti-viral defense responses were also observed earlier in rat LMECs. Most prominently SEOV-induced processes in both species included responses to cytokine stimulus, negative regulation of innate immune responses, responses to type I and II interferons, regulation of pattern recognition receptor signaling and MHC-I signaling. However, over time, in the rat LMECs, responses shifted from an anti-viral towards a more immunotolerant state displayed by a PD-L1, B2M-, JAK2-focused interaction network aiding in negative regulation of cytotoxic CD8-positive T cell activation. This suggests a novel mechanism demonstrating how species-specific orthohantavirus-induced endothelium and T cell cross-talk might be crucial for development of acute disease in humans and persistence in rodents.

Project description:Puumala orthohantavirus (PUUV) infection in humans can result in hemorrhagic fever with renal syndrome. Endothelial cells (ECs) are primarily infected with increased vascular permeability as a central aspect of pathogenesis. Historically, most studies included ECs cultured under static two-dimensional (2D) conditions, thereby not recapitulating the physiological environment due to their lack of flow and inherent pro-inflammatory state. Here, we present a high-throughput method for culturing primary human umbilical vein ECs in 3D vessels-on-chip in which we compared host responses of these ECs to those of static 2D-cultured ECs on a transcriptional level. The phenotype of ECs in vessels-on-chip more closely resembled the in vivo situation due to higher similarity in expression of genes encoding described markers for disease severity and coagulopathy, including IDO1, LGALS3BP, IL6 and PLAT, and more diverse endothelial-leukocyte interactions in the context of PUUV infection. In these vessels-on-chip, PUUV infection did not directly increase vascular permeability, but increased monocyte adhesion. This platform can be used for studying pathogenesis and assessment of possible therapeutics for other endotheliotropic viruses even in high biocontainment facilities.

Project description:Puumala orthohantavirus-caused hemorrhagic fever with renal syndrome (PUUV-HFRS) is characterized by significant neutrophil activation. Neutrophils, the most abundant immune cells in circulation, are equipped to respond rapidly to infections and exhibit a notable heterogeneity. This study aims to identify and characterize different neutrophil subsets in the circulation of PUUV-HFRS patients, focusing on low-density granulocytes (LDGs) and normal density polymorphonuclear cells (PMNs). The study finds that PMNs show activation of antiviral pathways, while circulating LDGs increase following acute PUUV-HFRS. Additionally, PUUV-associated LDGs, primarily immature, likely reflect increased bone marrow neutrophil production. Notably, the frequency of LDGs and a "left shift" in blood are associated with the extent of thrombocytopenia, a hallmark of severe HFRS, suggesting a role for maturing neutrophils in disease pathogenesis. Unlike COVID-19 associated LDGs, PUUV LDGs did not exhibit significant immunosuppressive ability, indicating inherent biological differences in LDG responses based on the causative virus or infection kinetics. RNA sequencing was performed on neutrophils isolated from four cohorts: healthy control PMNs, PUUV-infected PMNs, PUUV-infected CD16- LDGs, and PUUV-infected CD16+ LDGs. The RNA sequencing and subsequent bioinformatics analysis were conducted by the Biomedicum Functional Genomics Unit at the Helsinki Institute of Life Science and Biocenter Finland at the University of Helsinki.
