Abstract
O-glycosylation is an ancient yet underappreciated protein posttranslational modification, on which many bacteria and viruses heavily rely to perform critical biological functions involved in numerous infectious diseases or even cancer. But due to the innate complexity of O-glycosylation, research techniques have been limited to study its exact role in viral attachment and entry, assembly and exit, spreading in the host cells, and the innate and adaptive immunity of the host. Recently, the advent of many newly developed methodologies (e.g., mass spectrometry, chemical biology tools, and molecular dynamics simulations) has renewed and rekindled the interest in viral-related O-glycosylation in both viral proteins and host cells, which is further fueled by the COVID-19 pandemic. In this review, we summarize recent advances in viral-related O-glycosylation, with a particular emphasis on the mucin-type O-linked α-N-acetylgalactosamine (O-GalNAc) on viral proteins and the intracellular O-linked β-N-acetylglucosamine (O-GlcNAc) modifications on host proteins. We hope to provide valuable insights into the development of antiviral reagents or vaccines for better prevention or treatment of infectious diseases.

Potential mechanisms mediating PM 2.5-induced alterations of H3N2 influenza virus infection and cytokine production in human bronchial epithelial cells. ECOTOXICOLOGY AND ENVIRONMENTAL SAFETY 2023; 259:115069. [PMID: 37244199 DOI: 10.1016/j.ecoenv.2023.115069] [Citation(s) in RCA: 3] [Impact Index Per Article: 3.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/09/2023] [Revised: 05/17/2023] [Accepted: 05/23/2023] [Indexed: 05/29/2023]
Abstract
Exposure to particulate matter (PM) has been associated with increased hospital admissions for influenza. Airway epithelial cells are a primary target for inhaled environmental insults including fine PM (PM2.5) and influenza viruses. The potentiation of PM2.5 exposure on the effects of influenza virus on airway epithelial cells has not been adequately elucidated. In this study, the effects of PM2.5 exposure on influenza virus (H3N2) infection and downstream modulation of inflammation and antiviral immune response were investigated using a human bronchial epithelial cell line, BEAS-2B. The results showed that PM2.5 exposure alone increased the production of pro-inflammatory cytokines including interleukin-6 (IL-6) and IL-8 but decreased the production of the antiviral cytokine interferon-β (IFN-β) in BEAS-2B cells while H3N2 exposure alone increased the production of IL-6, IL-8, and IFN-β. Importantly, prior exposure to PM2.5 enhanced subsequent H3N2 infectivity, expression of viral hemagglutinin protein, as well as upregulation of IL-6 and IL-8, but reduced H3N2-induced IFN-β production. Pre-treatment with a pharmacological inhibitor of nuclear factor-κB (NF-κB) suppressed pro-inflammatory cytokine production induced by PM2.5, H3N2, as well as PM2.5-primed H3N2 infection. Moreover, antibody-mediated neutralization of Toll-like receptor 4 (TLR4) blocked cytokine production triggered by PM2.5 or PM2.5-primed H3N2 infection, but not H3N2 alone. Taken together, exposure to PM2.5 alters H3N2-induced cytokine production and markers of replication in BEAS-2B cells, which in turn are regulated by NF-κB and TLR4.

Protein expression profiling suggests relevance of noncanonical pathways in isolated pulmonary embolism. Blood 2021; 137:2681-2693.

Abstract
Patients with isolated pulmonary embolism (PE) have a distinct clinical profile from those with deep vein thrombosis (DVT)-associated PE, with more pulmonary conditions and atherosclerosis. These findings suggest a distinct molecular pathophysiology and the potential involvement of alternative pathways in isolated PE. To test this hypothesis, data from 532 individuals from the Genotyping and Molecular Phenotyping of Venous ThromboEmbolism Project, a multicenter prospective cohort study with extensive biobanking, were analyzed. Targeted, high-throughput proteomics, machine learning, and bioinformatic methods were applied to contrast the acute-phase plasma proteomes of isolated PE patients (n = 96) against those of patients with DVT-associated PE (n = 276) or isolated DVT (n = 160). This resulted in the identification of shared molecular processes between PE phenotypes, as well as an isolated PE-specific protein signature. Shared processes included upregulation of inflammation, response to oxidative stress, and the loss of pulmonary surfactant. The isolated PE-specific signature consisted of 5 proteins: interferon-γ, glial cell line-derived neurotrophic growth factor, polypeptide N-acetylgalactosaminyltransferase 3, peptidyl arginine deiminase type-2, and interleukin-15 receptor subunit α. These proteins were orthogonally validated using cis protein quantitative trait loci. External replication in an independent population-based cohort (n = 5778) further validated the proteomic results and showed that they were prognostic for incident primary isolated PE in individuals without history of VTE (median time to event: 2.9 years; interquartile range: 1.6-4.2 years), supporting their possible involvement in the early pathogenesis. This study has identified molecular overlaps and differences between VTE phenotypes. In particular, the results implicate noncanonical pathways more commonly associated with respiratory and atherosclerotic disease in the acute pathophysiology of isolated PE.

Abstract
Glycosylation is an essential biological process that adds structural and functional diversity to cells and molecules, participating in physiological processes such as immunity. The immune response is driven and modulated by protein-attached glycans that mediate cell-cell interactions, pathogen recognition and cell activation. Therefore, abnormal glycosylation can be associated with deranged immune responses. Within human diseases presenting immunological defects are congenital disorders of glycosylation (CDG), a family of around 130 rare and complex genetic diseases. In this review, we have identified 23 CDG with immunological involvement, characterized by an increased propensity to-often life-threatening-infection. Inflammatory and autoimmune complications were found in 7 CDG types. CDG natural history(ies) and the mechanisms behind the immunological anomalies are still poorly understood. However, in some cases, alterations in pathogen recognition and intracellular signaling (eg, TGF-β1, NFAT, and NF-κB) have been suggested. Targeted therapies to restore immune defects are only available for PGM3-CDG and SLC35C1-CDG. Fostering research on glycoimmunology may elucidate the involved pathophysiological mechanisms and open new therapeutic avenues, thus improving CDG patients' quality of life.
