Project description:Latent human cytomegalovirus (HCMV) in myeloid cells can be reactivated during cell differentiation and by inflammatory mediators. Expression level of immune regulator IL1R8 has been associated with the differentiation status of myeloid cells. As far, little is known about the role of IL1R8 in the association between reactivation of latent HCMV and differentiation of myeloid cells. To gain additional insights into IL1R8 and latency, a comparative transcriptome analysis was carried out through a unique bioinformatics approach that integrated IL1R8-correlated genes with differentially expressed genes to identify IL1R8-associated significant pathways. The Metascape pathway tool was utilized to perform enrichment analysis. The initial analysis revealed a significant inverse correlation between IL1R8 and viral counts (r = -0.42, z-score = -4.69) at single cell level in HCMV-infected monocytes at 4-14 days postinfection. In contrast to the majority of pathway analysis studies presenting unilateral up- or down-regulation, the current study discovered a number of bilaterally regulated key immune pathways in both lytic and latent infections. Notably, a ~3-fold predominant downregulation of the high-level adaptive immune system pathway was followed by a modestly predominant downregulation of mid-level Lymphocyte and low-level T cell activation pathways in latent infection. More interestingly, a unilateral upregulation pattern was identified exclusively in latent infection for Myeloid leukocyte activation, differentiation, and migration, in which upregulated genes were in concord with IL1R8 negatively correlated genes. The findings in the present study provided a comprehensive view of immunological alterations and a better understanding on the potential role of IL1R8 in the association between HCMV reactivation and myeloid cell differentiation in HCMV infection. The current study, for the first time, presented unique evidence supportive of a IL1R8-associated unilateral upregulation of myeloid leukocyte pathways in latent infection.

Project description:Primary infection with Human cytomegalovirus (HCMV) results in a persistent lifelong infection due to its ability to establish latent infection. During productive HCMV infection, viral genes are expressed in a coordinated cascade that is characteristic of all herpesviruses and traditionally relies on the dependencies of viral genes on protein synthesis and viral DNA replication. In contrast, the transcriptional landscape associated with HCMV latency is still disputed and poorly understood. Here, we examine viral transcriptomic dynamics during the establishment of both productive and latent HCMV infections. These temporal measurements reveal that viral gene expression dynamics along productive infection and their dependencies on protein synthesis and viral DNA replication, do not fully align. This illustrates that the regulation of herpesvirus genes does not represent a simple sequential transcriptional cascade and surprisingly many viral genes are regulated by multiple independent modules. Using our improved classification of viral gene expression kinetics in conjunction with transcriptome-wide measurements of the effects of a wide array of chromatin modifiers, we unbiasedly show that a defining characteristic of latent cells is the unique repression of immediate early (IE) genes. In particular, we demonstrate that IE1 (a central IE protein) expression is the principal barrier for achieving a full productive cycle. Altogether, our findings provide an unbiased and elaborate definition of HCMV gene expression in lytic and latent infection states.

Project description:Human cytomegalovirus (HCMV) is a widespread virus and can establish life-long latent infection in large populations. In order to establish persistent and latent infection in healthy individuals, HCMV encodes a large array of proteins that can modulate different components and pathways of host cells. It has been reported that pUL138 encoded by UL133-UL138 polycistronic locus promotes a latent infection in primary CD34+ HPCs infected in vitro. In this study, a recombinant HCMV, namely HanUL138del, was constructed by deleting the UL138 locus of Han, a clinic HCMV strain. Then a comparative quantitative proteomic analysis of Han and HanUL138del infected MRC5 cells was performed, aiming to study the effect of pUL138 on host cell in the context of HCMV infection. Our result indicated that at the early phase of HCMV infection, innate immune response was differentially activated, while at late phase of HCMV infection, multiple host proteins were differentially expressed, between Han or HanUL138del infected cells.

Project description:Small, compact genomes confer a selective advantage to viruses, yet human cyto-megalovirus (HCMV) expresses the long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs); RNA1.2, RNA2.7, RNA4.9, and RNA5.0. Little is known about the function of these lncRNAs in the virus life cycle. Here, we dissected the functional and molecular landscape of HCMV lncRNAs. We found that HCMV lncRNAs occupy ~30 % and 50~60 % of to-tal and poly(A)+ viral transcriptome, respectively, throughout virus life cycle. RNA1.2, RNA2.7, and RNA4.9, the three abundantly expressed lncRNAs, appear to be es-sential in all infection states. Among these three lncRNAs, depletion of RNA2.7 and RNA4.9 results in the greatest defect in maintaining latent reservoir and promoting lytic replication, respectively. Moreover, we delineated the global post-transcriptional nature of HCMV lncRNAs by nanopore direct RNA sequencing and interactome analysis. We revealed that the lncRNAs are modified with N⁶-methyladenosine (m6A) and interact with m6A readers in all infection states. In-depth analysis demonstrated that m6A machineries stabilize HCMV lncRNAs, which could account for the over-whelming abundance of viral lncRNAs. Our study lays the groundwork for under-standing the viral lncRNA–mediated regulation of host-virus interaction throughout the HCMV life cycle.

Project description:Infection with Human cytomegalovirus (HCMV) can result in either productive or non-productive infection, the latter potentially leading to establishment of latency, but the molecular factors that dictate these different infection outcomes are elusive. Macrophages are known targets of HCMV and considered to be permissive for productive infection, while monocytes, their precursors, are thought to support latent infection. Here we reveal that infection of macrophages is more complex than previously appreciated and can result in either productive or non-productive infection. By analyzing the progression of HCMV infection in c and macrophages using single cell transcriptomics, we uncover that the key characteristics that define productive and non-productive cells are the onset of viral gene expression, and activation of Interferon-stimulated genes (ISGs), respectively. We show that the level of viral gene expression, and specifically the expression of the major immediate early factor, IE1, is the principle barrier for establishing productive infection. On the cellular side, induction of ISGs in response to infection surprisingly does not dictate infection outcome, but we find that the cell intrinsic ISG levels is a main determinant of infection outcome. Indeed, intrinsic ISG level is downregulated with monocyte differentiation. We further show that, compared to monocytes, non-productive macrophages maintain slightly higher levels of viral transcripts and are able to reactivate, raising the possibility that they can serve as latency reservoirs in tissues. Moreover, we find that productive infection perturbs macrophage identity and function, likely affecting their immunological role during active infection. Overall, by harnessing the tractable system of monocyte differentiation we decipher the underlying principles that control HCMV infection outcome, and propose macrophages as a new potential HCMV reservoir in tissues.
