Project description:Infantile-onset RNaseT2 deficient leukoencephalopathy is characterised by cystic brain lesions, multifocal white matter alterations, cerebral atrophy, and severe psychomotor impairment. The phenotype is indistinguishable from congenital cytomegalovirus brain infection and overlaps with typeI interferonopathies like Aicardi-Goutières syndrome, strongly suggesting a role for innate immunity in its pathophysiology. To date, pathophysiological studies have been hindered by the lack of mouse models recapitulating the neuroinflammatory encephalopathy found in patients. In this study, we generated Rnaset2-/- mice using CRISPR/Cas9-mediated genome editing. Strikingly, Rnaset2-/- mice revealed strong upregulation of interferon-stimulated genes and concurrent neuroinflammation, with infiltration of CD8+ effector memory T cells and inflammatory monocytes into the grey and white matter. Homeostatic dysfunctions in glia cells and neurons revealed by single nuclei RNA sequencing provides initial insights into the mechanism of hippocampal-accentuated brain atrophy and cognitive impairment. Thus, Rnaset2 -/- mice provide an important model, to develop therapies for inborn RNaseT2 deficiency, congenital viral brain infection and further type I interferonopathies.

Project description:Comparison of the transcriptome of naive (CD45RA+ CD27+) and differentiated (CD27-CD28-) CD4+ lymphocytes from newborns with congenital human cytomegalovirus infection (cord blood samples) and pregnant women diagnosed with primary CMV infection. Naive cells from HCMV uninfected newborns were used as a control.

Project description:Cytomegalovirus (CMV) is the most common congenital infection worldwide, causing deafness and neurodevelopmental delay in infected infants. Preexisting maternal immunity to CMV is known to influence the incidence and severity of congenital infection. To establish the role of maternal antibody in protection against placental CMV transmission, 6 rhesus CMV (RhCMV)-seronegative rhesus monkey dams were CD4+ T cell depleted at the end of the first trimester of pregnancy and treated with either a single dose of standardly-produced hyperimmune globulin (HIG) (n=3) or a dose-optimized regimen of a potently-neutralizing HIG (n=3) prior to IV inoculation with a mixture of RhCMV strains. Passive infusion with HIG provided complete protection against fetal loss (0/6 HIG-treated vs. 5/6 control dams aborted; p=0.015). Furthermore, the dose-optimized, highly-neutralizing HIG product reduced the magnitude and diversity of maternal plasma RhCMV populations and inhibited placental transmission of RhCMV (0/3 transmitted), suggesting that pre-existing highly-neutralizing antibodies are sufficient to prevent congenital CMV infection and disease. In this study, we sought to investigate the placental transcriptome to determine whether: a) RhCMV congenital infection was being controlled at the level of the placenta, b) what genes are up-regulated following RhCMV congenital infection, and c) whether there are any genes associated with protection against viral infection.

Project description:Congenital hearing loss is a common chronic condition affecting children in both developed and developing nations. In many cases, congenital hearing loss is ultimately attributed to viral infection, most often by cytomegalovirus (CMV), but also in Congenital Zika Syndrome (CZS). The mechanisms by which CMV and ZIKV virus cause these cranial developmental defects have not been elucidated. Inner ear development has been particularly difficult to study, given the inaccessibility and scarcity of the tissue in animal models or on human autopsy; however, it is now possible to culture stem-cell derived otic progenitor cells (OPCs). Here we describe successful in-vitro infection of OPCs with either CMV or ZIKV. We find that ZIKV infection rapidly and strongly induces the expression of type I IFN and inflammatory genes, while simultaneously decreasing otic cell viability in culture that is at least in part attributable to apoptosis. In contrast, CMV infection did not appear to elicit either of these effects and instead demonstrated a clear dysregulation of the expression of many key genes and pathways associated with inner ear development and function, including Cochlin, NGFR, SOX11 and TGF-β signaling. These findings suggest that ZIKV and CMV infections cause congenital hearing loss through very different pathways; that is, by killing progenitor cells in the case of ZIKV infection, and via disruption of critical developmental pathways in the case of CMV infection. In addition to demonstrating differential hCMV and ZIKV pathogenesis mechanisms in OPCs, this study highlights the advantages of otic progenitor cell models for the study of congenital hearing loss induced by viral infection.

Project description:We conducted immune- and RNA-sequencing of HLA-A24-restricted CMVpp65-specific CTLs to better understand the immune reconstitution of CMV-CTLs after allo-HCT. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first report on the features of TCRβ-CDR3, diversity, and GEP of HLA-A24 CMV-CTLs according to the CMV-reactivation pattern among recipients after allo-HCT. In addition, we further sought to demonstrate homogeneity or heterogeneity according to individual CTL clones using single-cell RNA-sequencing technology.

Project description:Reconstitution of cytomegalovirus (CMV)-specific immunity following transplant remains a primary clinical objective to prevent CMV disease, and adoptive immunotherapy of CMV-specific T cells can be an effective therapeutic approach. Due to the persistence of CMV, most CMV-specific CD8+ T cells become terminally differentiated effector cells (TEFF). However, a minor subset retains a memory phenotype (TM). Interestingly, recent studies suggest that CMV-specific CD8+ T cells with different phenotypes may have different abilities to reconstitute sustained immunity following transfer. The immunology of human CMV (HCMV) infections is reflected in the mouse model of MCMV infection. We found that HCMV- and MCMV-specific T cells displayed shared genetic programs, validating the MCMV model for studies of CMV-specific T cells in vivo. After transfer, the proliferative capacity of MCMV-specific TM cells was vastly superior to TEFF cells. Strikingly, TM cells expanded and established sustained and diverse T cell populations even after multiple challenges. Although both TEFF and TM cells could protect Rag-/- mice, only TM cells could consistently survive after transfer into immune replete, latently infected recipients and respond if recipient immunity was lost. These data show that CMV-specific TM cells retain memory function during persistent infection and can re-establish CMV immunity when necessary.

Project description:Human cytomegalovirus (CMV) is a highly relevant pathogen, and its rodent counterparts serve as common infection models. Global proteome profiling of rat CMV (RCMV)-infected cells uncovered a pronounced loss of the transcription factor STAT2, which is crucial for interferon signalling. Deletion mutagenesis documented that STAT2 is targeted by the viral protein E27. Cellular analyses and in vitro reconstitution showed that E27 exploits host-derived Cullin4-RING ubiquitin ligases (CRL4) to induce poly-ubiquitylation and proteasomal degradation of STAT2. Cryo-electron microscopic structure determination revealed how E27 mimics molecular surface properties of cellular CRL4 substrate receptors to displace them from DDB1. Moreover, structure analyses solved the mechanism of STAT2 recruitment, and indicate that E27-binding disturbs the formation of active STAT2 complexes by occupying the IRF9-binding interface. Our results provide first structural insights into the cytomegalovirus-encoded interferon antagonism and establish an atomic model for STAT2 counteraction by CRL4 misappropriation, with important implications for viral immune evasion.
