Project description:Gene functional study and the emerging mRNA therapy technology heavily rely on in vitro transcribed (IVT) mRNA, but the double-stranded RNA (dsRNA) by-product generated during IVT is often recognized by cells as a marker of virus replication, leading to the integrated stress response (ISR).The biological effects of dsRNA in undifferentiated cells differ significantly from those of differentiated counterparts.Here, we found that dsRNA triggered an unprecedented ISR in zebrafish early embryos, leading to developmental delay, severe cell necrosis, and lethal malformations.Mechanistically, dsRNA stimulation caused a PKR-eIF2α independent global translation inhibition and a burst of p53 signaling. In turn, p53 activated Interferon Stimulated Genes (ISGs) and other defense-related genes in the absence of the IFN system. Unexpectedly, p53 does not promote cell death; instead, it plays a protective role in weakening the damage of translation repression by compromising protein turnover via enhanced ISGylation.This study thus unveils a distinct ISR upon dsRNA stimulation, which may help perform faithful gene overexpression in early embryos and shed light on the strategies of undifferentiated cells against RNA virus infection.

Project description:Double-stranded RNA (dsRNA) is associated with virus infections and is present as by-products during the transcription of synthetic mRNA, which has been widely used in gene gain-of-function studies and serves as a core component in emerging mRNA-based therapies1-4. The presence of dsRNA in host cells induces an integrated stress response that functions to prevent virus replication and infection5,6. Unlike differentiated cells, undifferentiated cells adopt a distinct defense strategy against RNA virus infection7, but the mechanism is unclear. We show a previously unidentified response triggered by dsRNA in the early embryo. Although dsRNA causes a global protein translation inhibition in a PKR-eIF2α independent manner and leads to developmental delay and cell necrosis, it also strongly induces p53 activation, which then upregulates Interferon Stimulated Genes independently of interferon ligands. Importantly, we demonstrate that the burst of p53 signaling dose not result in cell death but functions as a protective mechanism against deleterious translation blockage by slowing down global protein degradation via ISGylation. Our work has identified a distinct dsRNA-induced stress response in the embryo, reflecting an ancient innate immune memory before the establishment of the IFN system. It also raises the provocative question as to the original protective role of p53 during evolution.

Project description:Mitochondria are descendants of endosymbiotic bacteria and retain essential prokaryotic features such as a compact circular genome. Consequently, in mammals, mitochondrial DNA is subjected to bidirectional transcription that generates overlapping transcripts capable of forming long double-stranded RNA structures. However, to our knowledge, mitochondrial double-stranded RNA has not been previously characterized in vivo. Here, we describe the presence of a highly unstable native mitochondrial double-stranded RNA species at single cell level and identify keyroles for the degradosome components, mitochondrial dsRNA helicase SUV3 and polynucleotide phosphorylase PNPase in restricting the levels of mitochondrial double-stranded RNA. Loss of either enzyme results in massive accumulation of mitochondrial double-stranded RNA that escapes into the cytoplasm in a PNPase-dependent manner. This process engages an MDA5-driven antiviral signalling pathway that triggers a type I interferon response. Consistent with these data, patients carrying hypomorphic mutations in the gene PNPT1, which encodes PNPase, display mitochondrial double-stranded RNA accumulation coupled with upregulation of interferon-stimulated genes and other markers of immune activation. The localization of PNPase to the mitochondrial inter-membrane space and matrix suggests that it has a dual role in preventing the formation and release of mitochondrial double-stranded RNA into the cytoplasm. This in turn prevents the activation of potent innate immune defence mechanisms evolved to protect vertebrates against microbial and viral attack.

Project description:Adenosine-to-Inosine (A-to-I) editing of double stranded RNA (dsRNA) is an essential modifier of dsRNA immunogenicity. Loss of Adenosine deaminase acting on RNA 1 (ADAR1), or its A-to-I editing activity, triggers a lethal MDA5-dependent autoinflammatory response to endogenous unedited dsRNA. We performed a genome-wide suppressor screen to map the genetic landscape regulating the response to a loss of ADAR1 mediated A-to-I editing. This identified that the interacting proteins GGNBP2, CNOT10 and CNOT11 regulate immunogenic sensing following loss of A-to-I editing. GGNBP2 acts between transcription and cytoplasmic MDA5 sensing. Loss of GGNBP2 modified the distribution of dsRNA within cells, reducing the cytoplasmic dsRNA load and preventing induction of type I IFN and lethal autoinflammation. GGNBP2, CNOT10 and CNOT11 are novel regulators of the cellular response to unedited dsRNA.

Project description:Chemotherapy is often combined with immune checkpoint inhibitor (ICI) to enhance immunotherapy responses. Despite the approval of chemo-immunotherapy in multiple human cancers including triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC), immunologically cold tumors remain largely unresponsive due to weak chemotherapy-stimulated immune responses. The mechanisms determining the immunogenicity of chemotherapy in immunologically cold tumors remain largely unknown. Here, we identify the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) stress sensor IRE1α as a critical checkpoint that restricts the immunogenicity of taxane chemotherapy and prevents the innate immune recognition of immunologically cold TNBC. IRE1α RNase silences chemotherapy-induced double-stranded RNA (dsRNA) through RIDD (Regulated IRE1-Dependent Decay) to prevent NLRP3 inflammasome–dependent pyroptosis. Inhibition of IRE1α RNase activity with a selective RNase inhibitor ORIN1001, currently in Phase I clinical trial, allows taxane chemotherapy to induce extensive dsRNA accumulation and activate NLRP3 inflammasome–dependent gasdermin D (GSDMD) cleavage. This triggers pyroptosis and a highly effective immune response in immunologically cold TNBC.

Project description:Loss of RNA homeostasis underlies numerous neurodegenerative and neuroinflammatory diseases. However, the molecular mechanisms that trigger neuroinflammation are poorly understood. Viral double-stranded RNA (dsRNA) triggers innate immune responses when sensed by host pattern recognition receptors (PRRs) present in all cell types. Here, we report that human neurons intrinsically carry exceptionally high levels of immunostimulatory dsRNAs and identify long 3'UTRs as giving rise to neuronal dsRNA structures. We found that the neuron-enriched ELAVL family of genes (ELAVL2, -3, -4) can increase 1) 3'UTR length, 2) dsRNA load, and 3) activation of dsRNA-sensing PRRs such as MDA5, PKR, and TLR3. In wild-type neurons, neuronal dsRNAs signaled through PRRs to induce tonic production of the antiviral type I interferon. Depleting ELAVL2 in WT neurons led to global shortening of 3'UTR length, reduced immunostimulatory dsRNA levels, and rendered WT neurons susceptible to herpes simplex virus and Zika virus infection. Neurons deficient in ADAR1, a dsRNA-editing enzyme mutated in the neuroinflammatory disorder Aicardi-Goutières syndrome, exhibited intolerably high levels of dsRNA that triggered PRR mediated toxic inflammation and neuronal death. Depleting ELAVL2 in ADAR1 knockout neurons led to prolonged neuron survival by reducing immunostimulatory dsRNA levels. In summary, neurons are specialized cells where PRRs constantly sense ‘self’ dsRNAs to pre-emptively induce protective antiviral immunity, but maintaining RNA homeostasis is paramount to prevent pathological neuroinflammation.

Project description:Double-stranded RNA (dsRNA) can cause specific gene silencing upon ingestion in many animals and is being developed as a pesticide to target essential genes in animal pests. However, the organismal response to ingested dsRNA that leads to eventual gene silencing within animals is unknown. In the worm C. elegans, ingested dsRNA is recruited into the RNA interference pathway by the dsRNA-binding protein RDE-4 for eventual gene silencing by Argonaute proteins. We found that when RDE-4 was expressed at high levels within a tissue, silencing by ingested dsRNA could occur in rde-4(-) somatic tissues but not in the rde-4(-) germline. Such silencing by dsRNA-derived mobile RNA had different Argonaute requirements and could escape inhibition by expressed repetitive DNA. Thus, our results suggest that, when animals ingest dsRNA, the ingested dsRNA and dsRNA-derived mobile RNAs use distinct mechanisms to silence genes.
