A volatile from skin microbiota of flavivirus-infected host promotes mosquito attractiveness

Project description:We performed whole-transcriptome RNA sequencing (RNA-Seq) to compare transcript abundances in the skin of DENV- or ZIKV-infected AG6 mice to those in the skin of uninfected mice.

A female mosquito salivary protein-driven influx of myeloid cells facilitates flavivirus transmission

Project description:Mosquitoes transmit many flaviviruses of global public health significance. Efficient viral transmission to mammalian hosts requires mosquito salivary factors that modulate local host responses, such as recruitment of virus-permissive myeloid cells to the bite sites. However, the specific salivary components facilitating viral transmission and their mechanisms of action remain largely unknown. Here, we showed that a female mosquito salivary gland-specific protein, named Aedes aegypti Neutrophil Recruitment Protein (AaNRP), acts as a key salivary component to facilitate the transmission of Zika (ZIKV) and dengue (DENV) viruses. AaNRP promotes a rapid influx of neutrophils followed by virus-susceptible myeloid cells toward mosquito bite sites, which facilitate establishment of local infection and systemic dissemination. Mechanistically, AaNRP engages TLR1 and TLR4 of skin resident macrophages and activates MyD88-dependent NF-κB signaling to induce the expression of neutrophil chemoattractants. Inhibition of MyD88-NF-κB with dietary resveratrol, a phytochemical, neutralizes the AaNRP effects, thus reducing flavivirus transmission by mosquitoes. This study offers mechanistic insight into saliva-aided viral transmission and provides a potential prophylactic target.

Flavivirus induces and antagonizes antiviral RNA interference in both mammals and mosquitoes

Project description:Mosquito-borne flaviviruses maintain life cycles in mammals and mosquitoes. RNA interference (RNAi) has been demonstrated as an anti-flavivirus mechanism in mosquitoes; however, whether and how flavivirus induces and antagonizes RNAi-mediated antiviral immunity in mammals remains unknown. Here we showed that NS2A of Dengue virus-2 (DENV2) act as a viral suppressor of RNAi (VSR). When NS2A-mediated RNAi suppression was disabled, the resulting mutant DENV2 induced Dicer-dependent production of abundant DENV2-derived siRNAs in differentiated mammalian cells. Importantly, VSR-disabled DENV2 showed severe replication defects in mosquito and mammalian cells, and mice, which were rescued by the deficiency of RNAi. Moreover, NS2As of multiple flaviviruses act as VSRs in vitro and during viral infection in both organisms. Overall, our findings demonstrate that antiviral RNAi can be induced by flavivirus, while flavivirus uses NS2A as bona fide VSR to evade RNAi in mammals and mosquitoes, highlighting the importance of RNAi in flaviviral vector-host life cycles.

TMEM41B is a pan-flavivirus host factor

Project description:Flaviviruses pose a constant threat to human health. These RNA viruses are transmitted by the bite of infected mosquitoes and ticks and regularly cause outbreaks. To identify host factors required for flavivirus infection we performed full-genome loss of function CRISPR-Cas9 screens. Based on these results we focused our efforts on characterizing the roles that TMEM41B and VMP1 play in the virus replication cycle. Our mechanistic studies on TMEM41B revealed that all members of the Flaviviridae family that we tested require TMEM41B. We tested 12 additional virus families and found that SARS-CoV-2 of the Coronaviridae also required TMEM41B for infection. Remarkably, single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) present at nearly twenty percent in East Asian populations reduce flavivirus infection. Based on our mechanistic studies we propose that TMEM41B is recruited to flavivirus RNA replication complexes to facilitate membrane curvature, which creates a protected environment for viral genome replication.
