Douglas AJ, Katzenback BA. The wood frog (Rana sylvatica): An emerging comparative model for anuran immunity and host-ranavirus interactions. DEVELOPMENTAL AND COMPARATIVE IMMUNOLOGY 2023; 147:104733. [PMID: 37550009 DOI: 10.1016/j.dci.2023.104733] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/11/2022] [Revised: 05/06/2023] [Accepted: 05/09/2023] [Indexed: 08/09/2023]
Abstract
The wood frog (Rana sylvatica) is widely distributed across North America and is the only amphibian found north of the Arctic Circle due to its remarkable ability to tolerate whole-body freezing. Recent mass mortalities attributable to Ranavirus spp. (family Iridoviridae) in wild juvenile wood frogs, coupled with the apparent high susceptibility of wood frogs to experimental infection with frog virus 3 (FV3), the type species of the Ranavirus genus, or FV3-like isolates underscore the serious threat ranaviruses poses to wood frog populations. Despite the ecological relevance and unique life history of wood frogs, our understanding of the wood frog immune system and antiviral response to ranaviral infections is in its infancy. Here we aim to (1) synthesize the limited knowledge of wood frog immune defences, (2) review recent progress in establishing the wood frog as a study system for ranavirus infection, and (3) highlight the future use of wood frogs as a model anuran to provide insight into the evolution of anuran immune systems and antiviral responses.

Microbiol Spectr 2023; 11:e0475322. [PMID: 37078873 PMCID: PMC10269733 DOI: 10.1128/spectrum.04753-22] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/21/2022] [Accepted: 03/28/2023] [Indexed: 04/21/2023] Open
Abstract
Studying viral glycoprotein-host membrane protein interactions contributes to the discovery of novel cell receptors or entry facilitators for viruses. Glycoprotein 5 (GP5), which is a major envelope protein of porcine reproductive and respiratory syndrome virus (PRRSV) virions, is a key target for the control of the virus. Here, the macrophage receptor with collagenous structure (MARCO), which is a member of the scavenger receptor family, was identified as one of the host interactors of GP5 through a DUALmembrane yeast two-hybrid screening. MARCO was specifically expressed on porcine alveolar macrophages (PAMs), and PRRSV infection downregulated MARCO expression both in vitro and in vivo. MARCO was not involved in viral adsorption and internalization processes, indicating that MARCO may not be a PRRSV-entry facilitator. Contrarily, MARCO served as a host restriction factor for PRRSV. The knockdown of MARCO in PAMs enhanced PRRSV proliferation, whereas overexpression suppressed viral proliferation. The N-terminal cytoplasmic region of MARCO was responsible for its inhibitory effect on PRRSV. Further, we found that MARCO was a proapoptotic factor in PRRSV-infected PAMs. MARCO knockdown weakened virus-induced apoptosis, whereas overexpression aggravated apoptosis. MARCO aggravated GP5-induced apoptosis, which may result in its proapoptotic function in PAMs. The interaction between MARCO and GP5 may contribute to the intensified apoptosis induced by GP5. Additionally, the inhibition of apoptosis during PRRSV infection weakened the antiviral function of MARCO, suggesting that MARCO inhibits PRRSV through the regulation of apoptosis. Taken together, the results of this study reveal a novel antiviral mechanism of MARCO and suggest a molecular basis for the potential development of therapeutics against PRRSV. IMPORTANCE Porcine reproductive and respiratory syndrome virus (PRRSV) has been one of the most serious threats to the global swine industry. Glycoprotein 5 (GP5) exposed on the surface of PRRSV virions is a major glycoprotein, and it is involved in viral entry into host cells. A macrophage receptor with collagenous structure (MARCO), which is a member of the scavenger receptor family, was identified to interact with PRRSV GP5 in a DUALmembrane yeast two-hybrid screening. Further investigation demonstrated that MARCO may not serve as a potential receptor to mediate PRRSV entry. Instead, MARCO was a host restriction factor for the virus, and the N-terminal cytoplasmic region of MARCO was responsible for its anti-PRRSV effect. Mechanistically, MARCO inhibited PRRSV infection through intensifying virus-induced apoptosis in PAMs. The interaction between MARCO and GP5 may contribute to GP5-induced apoptosis. Our work reveals a novel antiviral mechanism of MARCO and advances the development of control strategies for the virus.

Abstract
Scavenger receptor (SRs) are pattern recognition receptors that play important roles in innate immunity. However, studies on SR in Procambarus clarkii are still lacking. In the present study, a novel scavenger receptor B on P. clarkii (PcSRB) was identified. The ORF of PcSRB was 548 bp and encoded 505 amino acid residues. It was a transmembrane protein with two transmembrane domains. The molecular weight was about 57.1 kDa. The tissue analysis by real-time PCR showed that the highest expression level was found in hepatopancreas, while the lowest expression level was found in heart, muscle, nerve and gill. After P. clarkii were infected with Aeromonas hydrophila, the expression of SRB in hemocytes increased rapidly at 12 h, and SRB in hepatopancreas and intestine also increased rapidly at 48 h after infection. The recombinant protein was obtained by prokaryotic expression. The recombinant protein (rPcSRB) could bind to bacteria and different molecular pattern recognition substances. The present study confirmed that SRB may be involved in the immune regulation process and play a certain role in the immune defense of P. clarkii, especially in the recognition and binding of pathogens. Therefore, this study provides theoretical support for further improving and enriching the immune system of P. clarkii.

Abstract
Monkeypox is a zoonotic illness caused by the monkeypox virus, an Orthopoxvirus in the same genus as the variola, vaccinia, and cowpox viruses. Since the detection of the first human case in the Democratic Republic of the Congo in 1970, the disease has caused sporadic infections and outbreaks, mainly restricted to some countries in west and central Africa. In July, 2022, WHO declared monkeypox a Public Health Emergency of International Concern, on account of the unprecedented global spread of the disease outside previously endemic countries in Africa and the need for global solidarity to address this previously neglected disease. The 2022 outbreak has been primarily associated with close intimate contact (including sexual activity) and most cases have been diagnosed among men who have sex with men, who often present with novel epidemiological and clinical characteristics. In the 2022 outbreak, the incubation period ranges from 7 days to 10 days and most patients present with a systemic illness that includes fever and myalgia and a characteristic rash, with papules that evolve to vesicles, pustules, and crusts in the genital, anal, or oral regions and often involve the mucosa. Complications that require medical treatment (eg, antiviral therapy, antibacterials, and pain control) occur in up to 40% of patients and include rectal pain, odynophagia, penile oedema, and skin and anorectal abscesses. Most patients have a self-limited illness; between 1% and 13% require hospital admission (for treatment or isolation), and the case-fatality rate is less than 0·1%. A diagnosis can be made through the presence of Orthopoxvirus DNA in PCRs from lesion swabs or body fluids. Patients with severe manifestations and people at risk of severe disease (eg, immunosuppressed people) could benefit from antiviral treatment (eg, tecovirimat). The current strategy for post-exposure prophylaxis or pre-exposure prophylaxis for people at high risk is vaccination with the non-replicating modified vaccinia Ankara. Antiviral treatment and vaccines are not yet available in endemic countries in Africa.

Abstract
Poxviruses (PXVs) are mostly known for the variola virus, being the cause of smallpox; however, re-emerging PXVs have also shown a great capacity to develop outbreaks of pox-like infections in humans. The situation is alarming; PXV outbreaks have been involving both endemic and non-endemic areas in recent decades. Stopped smallpox vaccination is a reason offered mainly for this changing epidemiology that implies the protective role of immunity in the pathology of PXV infections. The immune system recognizes PXVs and elicits responses, but PXVs can antagonize these responses. Here, we briefly review the immunology of PXV infections, with emphasis on the role of pattern-recognition receptors, macrophages, and natural killer cells in the early response to PXV infections and PXVs’ strategies influencing these responses, as well as taking a glance at other immune cells, which discussion over them mainly occurs in association with PXV immunization rather than PXV infection. Throughout the review, numerous evasion mechanisms are highlighted, which might have implications for designing specific immunotherapies for PXV in the future.

Abstract
BACKGROUND In May, 2022, several European countries reported autochthonous cases of monkeypox, which rapidly spread globally. Early reports suggest atypical presentations. We aimed to investigate clinical and virological characteristics of cases of human monkeypox in Spain. METHODS This multicentre, prospective, observational cohort study was done in three sexual health clinics in Madrid and Barcelona, Spain. We enrolled all consecutive patients with laboratory-confirmed monkeypox from May 11 to June 29, 2022. Participants were offered lesion, anal, and oropharynx swabs for PCR testing. Participant data were collected by means of interviews conducted by dermatologists or specialists in sexually transmitted infections and were recorded using a standard case report form. Outcomes assessed in all participants with a confirmed diagnosis were demographics, smallpox vaccination, HIV status, exposure to someone with monkeypox, travel, mass gathering attendance, risk factors for sexually transmitted infections, sexual behaviour, signs and symptoms on first presentation, virological results at multiple body sites, co-infection with other sexually transmitted pathogens, and clinical outcomes 14 days after the initial presentation. Clinical outcomes were followed up until July 13, 2022. FINDINGS 181 patients had a confirmed monkeypox diagnosis and were enrolled in the study. 166 (92%) identified as gay men, bisexual men, or other men who have sex with men (MSM) and 15 (8%) identified as heterosexual men or heterosexual women. Median age was 37·0 years (IQR 31·0-42·0). 32 (18%) patients reported previous smallpox vaccination, 72 (40%) were HIV-positive, eight (11%) had a CD4 cell count less than 500 cells per μL, and 31 (17%) were diagnosed with a concurrent sexually transmitted infection. Median incubation was 7·0 days (IQR 5·0-10·0). All participants presented with skin lesions; 141 (78%) participants had lesions in the anogenital region, and 78 (43%) in the oral and perioral region. 70 (39%) participants had complications requiring treatment: 45 (25%) had a proctitis, 19 (10%) had tonsillitis, 15 (8%) had penile oedema, six (3%) an abscess, and eight (4%) had an exanthem. Three (2%) patients required hospital admission. 178 (99%) of 180 swabs from skin lesions collected tested positive, as did 82 (70%) of 117 throat swabs. Viral load was higher in lesion swabs than in pharyngeal specimens (mean cycle threshold value 23 [SD 4] vs 32 [6], absolute difference 9 [95% CI 8-10]; p<0·0001). 108 (65%) of 166 MSM reported anal-receptive sex. MSM who engaged in anal-receptive sex presented with proctitis (41 [38%] of 108 vs four [7%] of 58, absolute difference 31% [95% CI 19-44]; p<0·0001) and systemic symptoms before the rash (67 [62%] vs 16 [28%], absolute difference 34% [28-62]; p<0·0001) more frequently than MSM who did not engage in anal-receptive sex. 18 (95%) of 19 participants with tonsillitis reported practising oral-receptive sex. The median time from onset of lesions to formation of a dry crust was 10 days (IQR 7-13). INTERPRETATION In our cohort, monkeypox caused genital, perianal, and oral lesions and complications including proctitis and tonsillitis. Because of the variability of presentations, clinicians should have a low threshold for suspicion of monkeypox. Lesion swabs showed the highest viral loads, which, combined with the history of sexual exposure and the distribution of lesions, suggests close contact is probably the dominant transmission route in the current outbreak. FUNDING None.

Abstract
The skin serves as the interface between the body and the environment and plays a fundamental role in innate antimicrobial host immunity. Antiviral proteins (AVPs) are part of the innate host defense system and provide protection against viral pathogens. How breach of the skin barrier influences innate AVP production remains largely unknown. In this study, we characterized the induction and regulation of AVPs after skin injury and identified a key role of TRPV1 in this process. Transcriptional and phenotypic profiling of cutaneous wounds revealed that skin injury induces high levels of AVPs in both mice and humans. Remarkably, pharmacologic and genetic ablation of TRPV1-mediated nociception abrogated the induction of AVPs, including Oas2, Oasl2, and Isg15 after skin injury in mice. Conversely, stimulation of TRPV1 nociceptors was sufficient to induce AVP production involving the CD301b+ cells‒IL-27‒mediated signaling pathway. Using IL-27 receptor‒knockout mice, we show that IL-27 signaling is required in the induction of AVPs after skin injury. Finally, loss of TRPV1 signaling leads to increased viral infectivity of herpes simplex virus. Together, our data indicate that TRPV1 signaling ensures skin antiviral competence on wounding.

Abstract
Skin, the largest human organ, is part of the first line of physical and immunological defense against many pathogens. Understanding how skin antigen-presenting cells (APCs) respond to viruses or virus-based vaccines is crucial to develop antiviral pharmaceutics, and efficient and safe vaccines. Here, we discuss the way resident and recruited skin APCs engage adenoviruses and the impact on innate immune responses. This article is protected by copyright. All rights reserved.

DEVELOPMENTAL AND COMPARATIVE IMMUNOLOGY 2022; 132:104397.

Abstract
The scavenger receptors (SRs) gene family, as one of pattern recognition receptors, participates in the innate immune response in diverse lineages. However, the systematic identification, characteristics and functions of SRs family are lacking in teleost. Here, we identified all 19 SRs family members in Japanese flounder (Paralichthys olivaceus) based on the genome and transcriptome data. Phylogenetic and Ka/Ks analysis demonstrated that these SRs genes were divided into five classes and all exhibited pronounced purified selection pressures. Whole genome duplication event was found in colec12, scarb2, and lamp1. Gene structure, functional domain and motif distribution analyses indicated that SRs within the different subfamilies are severely conservative. SRs genes showed diverse expression patterns in the embryogenesis and unchanged tissues. The regulations of 14 SRs genes in blood, gill and kidney after E. tarda infection suggested their roles in innate immune response. Meanwhile, ten SRs genes were differentially expressed after E. tarda stimulation in macrophages in vitro. Then we proved that PoSCARA3 could suppress the activity of NF-κB and AP-1 in HEK 293T cells by dual-luciferase assays. In summary, this study provided valuable basis for further functional characterization and immune functions of SRs genes in P. olivaceus.

Abstract
Macrophage receptor with collagenous structure (MARCO) is a scavenger receptor that plays a crucial role in the immune response against microbial infections. To clarify the roles of fish MARCO in Singapore grouper iridovirus (SGIV) infection, we identified and characterized Ec-MARCO in the orange-spotted grouper (Epinephelus coioides). The Ec-MARCO encoded a 370-amino acid protein with transmembrane region, coiled coil region and SR domain, which shared high identities with reported MARCO. The abundant transcriptional level of Ec-MARCO was found in spleen, head kidney and blood. And the Ec-MARCO expression was significantly up-regulated in grouper spleen (GS) cells after infection with SGIV in vitro. Subcellular localization analysis revealed that Ec-MARCO was mainly distributed in the cytoplasm and on the cell membrane. Ec-MARCO knockdown in vitro significantly inhibited SGIV infection in GS cells, as evidenced by reduced decreased SGIV major capsid protein (MCP) transcription and MCP protein expression. Further studies showed that Ec-MARCO knockdown positively regulated proinflammatory cytokines and interferon-stimulated genes, and enhanced IFN and ISRE promoter activities. However, overexpression of Ec-MARCO did not affect SGIV entry into host cells. In summary, our results suggested that Ec-MARCO affected SGIV infection by regulating antiviral innate immune response.

Abstract
Oncolytic viruses are designed to specifically target cancer cells, sparing normal cells. Although numerous studies demonstrate the ability of oncolytic viruses to infect a wide range of non-tumor cells, the significance of this phenomenon for cancer virotherapy is poorly understood. To fill the gap, we summarize the data on infection of non-cancer targets by oncolytic viruses with a special focus on tumor microenvironment and secondary lymphoid tissues. The review aims to address two major questions: how do attenuated viruses manage to infect normal cells, and whether it is of importance for oncolytic virotherapy.

Abstract
Viremia in the vertebrate host is a major determinant of arboviral reservoir competency, transmission efficiency, and disease severity. However, immune mechanisms that control arboviral viremia are poorly defined. Here, we identify critical roles for the scavenger receptor MARCO in controlling viremia during arthritogenic alphavirus infections in mice. Following subcutaneous inoculation, arthritogenic alphavirus particles drain via the lymph and are rapidly captured by MARCO+ lymphatic endothelial cells (LECs) in the draining lymph node (dLN), limiting viral spread to the bloodstream. Upon reaching the bloodstream, alphavirus particles are cleared from the circulation by MARCO-expressing Kupffer cells in the liver, limiting viremia and further viral dissemination. MARCO-mediated accumulation of alphavirus particles in the draining lymph node and liver is an important host defense mechanism as viremia and viral tissue burdens are elevated in MARCO-/- mice and disease is more severe. In contrast to prior studies implicating a key role for lymph node macrophages in limiting viral dissemination, these findings exemplify a previously unrecognized arbovirus-scavenging role for lymphatic endothelial cells and improve our mechanistic understanding of viremia control during arthritogenic alphavirus infection.

Abstract
Scavenger receptor class B type 2 (SR-B2) is a pattern recognition receptor involved in innate immunity in mammals; however, the immunological function of SR-Bs in fish remains unclear. In this study, the full-length cDNA sequences of SR-B2a and SR-B2b from grass carp (Ctenopharyngodon idellus) were cloned and designated as CiSR-B2a and CiSR-B2b. Multiple alignments and phylogenetic analyses deduced that CiSR-B2a and CiSR-B2b had the highest evolutionary conservation and were closely related to the zebrafish (Danio rerio) homologs, DrSR-B2a and DrSR-B2b, respectively. Both CiSR-B2a and CiSR-B2b were expressed in all the tested tissues, with the highest expression levels found in the hepatopancreas. In Ctenopharyngodon idellus kidney cells (CIK), CiSR-B2a and CiSR-B2b were mainly located in the cytoplasm, and a small amount located on the plasma membrane. After challenge with Grass Carp Reovirus (GCRV), the expression of CiSR-B2a and CiSR-B2b were significantly upregulated in the spleen (about 10.27 and 27.19 times higher than that at 0 day, p < 0.01). With CiSR-B2a or CiSR-B2b overexpressed in CIK, the relative copy number of GCRV in the cells was both significantly increased compared to that in the control group, indicating that CiSR-B2a and CiSR-B2b may be important proteins during the infection processes of GCRV.

Abstract
Scavenger receptors clear pathogens, transport lipid, and mediate polyanionic ligand uptake in macrophages, but their expression and role in the skin are poorly understood. Although the epidermal barrier typically excludes nucleic acid entry, topically applied, spherically arranged oligonucleotide nanoconjugates (spherical nucleic acids [SNAs]) penetrate mouse skin, three-dimensional (3D) skin equivalents, and human skin. We explored the mechanism of SNA uptake in normal human epidermal keratinocytes and 3D skin equivalents. Normal human epidermal keratinocytes and 3D raft treatment with SR-A inhibitors reduced SNA uptake by >80%. The human epidermis expresses SR-As SCARA3 and, to a lesser extent, MARCO. Simultaneous lentiviral knockdown of SCARA3 and MARCO reduced SNA uptake in normal human epidermal keratinocytes and 3D rafts after topical application, affirming a role for SR-As in SNA uptake and 3D raft penetration. Incubation of normal human epidermal keratinocytes at 4oC or with sodium azide prevented SNA uptake, suggesting active endocytosis. Endocytosis inhibitors, immunofluorescence, immunoprecipitation, and knockdown studies localized functional SR-As to FLOT-1-containing lipid rafts throughout the epidermis and CAV-1-containing rafts only in the upper epidermis. These studies suggest a central role for SR-A complexes in epidermal lipid rafts in mediating the uptake of nucleic acid‒laden nanoparticles.

Abstract
Rift Valley fever phlebovirus (RVFV) infects humans and a wide range of ungulates and historically has caused devastating epidemics in Africa and the Arabian Peninsula. Lesions of naturally infected cases of Rift Valley fever (RVF) have only been described in detail in sheep with a few reports concerning cattle and humans. The most frequently observed lesion in both ruminants and humans is randomly distributed necrosis, particularly in the liver. Lesions supportive of vascular endothelial injury are also present and include mild hydropericardium, hydrothorax and ascites; marked pulmonary congestion and oedema; lymph node congestion and oedema; and haemorrhages in many tissues. Although a complete understanding of RVF pathogenesis is still lacking, antigen-presenting cells in the skin are likely the early targets of the virus. Following suppression of type I IFN production and necrosis of dermal cells, RVFV spreads systemically, resulting in infection and necrosis of other cells in a variety of organs. Failure of both the innate and adaptive immune responses to control infection is exacerbated by apoptosis of lymphocytes. An excessive pro-inflammatory cytokine and chemokine response leads to microcirculatory dysfunction. Additionally, impairment of the coagulation system results in widespread haemorrhages. Fatal outcomes result from multiorgan failure, oedema in many organs (including the lungs and brain), hypotension, and circulatory shock. Here, we summarize current understanding of RVF cellular tropism as informed by lesions caused by natural infections. We specifically examine how extant knowledge informs current understanding regarding pathogenesis of the haemorrhagic fever form of RVF, identifying opportunities for future research.

Abstract
In the skin, antiviral proteins and other immune molecules serve as the first line of innate antiviral defense. Here, we identify and characterize the induction of cutaneous innate antiviral proteins in response to IL-27 and its functional role during cutaneous defense against Zika virus infection. Transcriptional and phenotypic profiling of epidermal keratinocytes treated with IL-27 demonstrated activation of antiviral proteins OAS1, OAS2, OASL, and MX1 in the skin of both mice and humans. IL-27-mediated antiviral protein induction was found to occur in a STAT1- and IRF3-dependent but STAT2-independent manner. Moreover, using IL27ra mice, we demonstrate a significant role for IL-27 in inhibiting Zika virus morbidity and mortality following cutaneous, but not intravenous, inoculation. Together, our results demonstrate a critical and previously unrecognized role for IL-27 in cutaneous innate antiviral immunity against Zika virus.

Abstract
Insects, which lack the adaptive immune system, have developed sophisticated innate immune system consisting of humoral and cellular immune responses to defend against invading microorganisms. Non-self recognition of microbes is the front line of the innate immune system. Repertoires of pattern recognition receptors (PRRs) recognize the conserved pathogen-associated molecular patterns (PAMPs) present in microbes, such as lipopolysaccharide (LPS), peptidoglycan (PGN), lipoteichoic acid (LTA) and β-1, 3-glucans, and induce innate immune responses. In this review, we summarize current knowledge of the structure, classification and roles of PRRs in innate immunity of the model organism Drosophila melanogaster, focusing mainly on the peptidoglycan recognition proteins (PGRPs), Gram-negative bacteria-binding proteins (GNBPs), scavenger receptors (SRs), thioester-containing proteins (TEPs), and lectins.

Survivin Overexpression Has a Negative Effect on Feline Calicivirus Infection. Viruses 2019; 11:v11110996. [PMID: 31671627 PMCID: PMC6893618 DOI: 10.3390/v11110996] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.2] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/14/2019] [Revised: 10/16/2019] [Accepted: 10/25/2019] [Indexed: 12/24/2022] Open
Abstract
It is known that levels of the anti-apoptotic protein survivin are reduced during Murine norovirus MNV-1 and Feline calicivirus (FCV) infection as part of the apoptosis establishment required for virus release and propagation in the host. Recently, our group has reported that overexpression of survivin causes a reduction of FCV protein synthesis and viral progeny production, suggesting that survivin may affect early steps of the replicative cycle. Using immunofluorescence assays, we observed that overexpression of survivin, resulted in the reduction of FCV infection not only in transfected but also in the neighboring nontransfected CrFK cells, thus suggesting autocrine and paracrine protective effects. Cells treated with the supernatants collected from CrFK cells overexpressing survivin showed a reduction in FCV but not MNV-1 protein production and viral yield, suggesting that FCV binding and/or entry were specifically altered. The reduced ability of FCV to bind to the surface of the cells overexpressing survivin, or treated with the supernatants collected from these cells, correlate with the reduction in the cell surface of the FCV receptor, the feline junctional adhesion molecule (fJAM) 1, while no effect was observed in the cells transfected with the pAm-Cyan vector or in cells treated with the corresponding supernatants. Moreover, the overexpression of survivin affects neither Vaccinia virus (VACV) production in CrFK cells nor MNV-1 virus production in RAW 267.4 cells, indicating that the effect is specific for FCV. All of these results taken together indicate that cells that overexpress survivin, or cell treatment with the conditioned medium from these cells, results in the reduction of the fJAM-1 molecule and, therefore, a specific reduction in FCV entry and infection.

Abstract
The magnitude and duration of vertebrate viremia is a critical determinant of arbovirus transmission, geographic spread, and disease severity. We find that multiple alphaviruses, including chikungunya (CHIKV), Ross River (RRV), and o'nyong 'nyong (ONNV) viruses, are cleared from the circulation of mice by liver Kupffer cells, impeding viral dissemination. Clearance from the circulation was independent of natural antibodies or complement factor C3, and instead relied on scavenger receptor SR-A6 (MARCO). Remarkably, lysine to arginine substitutions at distinct residues within the E2 glycoproteins of CHIKV and ONNV (E2 K200R) as well as RRV (E2 K251R) allowed for escape from clearance and enhanced viremia and dissemination. Mutational analysis revealed that viral clearance from the circulation is strictly dependent on the presence of lysine at these positions. These findings reveal a previously unrecognized innate immune pathway that controls alphavirus viremia and dissemination in vertebrate hosts, ultimately influencing disease severity and likely transmission efficiency.

Abstract
Scavenger receptor class B type 1 (SRB1) is a transmembrane protein belonging to the scavenger receptors (SRs) family and it plays an important role in viral entry. Not much is known on SRB1 in teleost fish. Grass carp reovirus (GCRV) cause huge economic losses in grass carp industry. In this study, rare minnow (Gobiocypris rarus) was used as a model fish to investigate the mechanism of GCRV infection, which is sensitive to GCRV. The structure of SRB1 gene in G. rarus (GrSRB1) was cloned and elucidated. GrSRB1 is composed of 13 exons and 12 introns, and its full-length cDNA is 2296 bp in length, with 1521 bp open reading frame (ORF) that encodes a 506 amino acid protein. The GrSRB1 protein is predicted to contain a typical CD36 domain and two transmembrane regions. In G. rarus, GrSRB1 is expressed strongly in the liver (L), intestines (I), brain (B) and muscle (M), while it is expressed poorly in the heart (H), middle kidney (MK), head kidney (HK) and gills (G). After infection with GCRV, GrSRB1 expression was up-regulated in main immune tissues during the early infection period. Moreover, co-immunoprecipitation assays revealed that GrSRB1 could interact with the outer capsid protein of GCRV (VP5 and VP7). These results suggest that GrSRB1 could be a receptor for GCRV. We have managed to characterize the GrSRB1 gene and provide evidence for its potential functions for GCRV entry into host cells.

Abstract
Frog virus 3 (FV3) is the type species of the genus Ranavirus (family Iridoviridae). FV3 and FV3-like viruses are globally distributed infectious agents with the capacity to replicate in three vertebrate classes (teleosts, amphibians, and reptiles). At the cellular level, FV3 and FV3-like viruses can infect cells from virtually all vertebrate classes. To date, the cellular receptors that are involved in the FV3 entry process are unknown. Class A scavenger receptors (SR-As) are a family of evolutionarily conserved cell-surface receptors that bind a wide range of chemically distinct polyanionic ligands and can function as cellular receptors for other DNA viruses, including vaccinia virus and herpes simplex virus. The present study aimed to determine whether SR-As are involved in FV3 cellular entry. By using well-defined SR-A competitive and non-competitive ligand-blocking assays and absolute qPCR, we demonstrated that the SR-A competitive ligands drastically reduced the quantities of cell-associated viral loads in frog cells. Moreover, inducing the expression of a human SR-AI in an SR-A null cell line significantly increased FV3⁻cell association. Together, our results indicate that SR-As are utilized by FV3 during the cellular entry process.

Abstract
Rift Valley fever (RVF) is a mosquito-borne disease that affects both ruminants and humans, with epidemics occurring more frequently in recent years in Africa and the Middle East, probably as a result of climate change and intensified livestock trade. Sheep necropsied during the 2010 RVF outbreak in South Africa were examined by histopathology and immunohistochemistry (IHC). A total of 124 sheep were available for study, of which 99 cases were positive for RVF. Multifocal-random, necrotizing hepatitis was confirmed as the most distinctive lesion of RVF cases in adult sheep. Of cases where liver, spleen, and kidney tissues were available, 45 of 70 had foci of acute renal tubular epithelial injury in addition to necrosis in both the liver and spleen. In some cases, acute renal injury was the most significant RVF lesion. Immunolabeling for RVFV was most consistent and unequivocal in liver, followed by spleen, kidney, lung, and skin. RVFV antigen-positive cells included hepatocytes, adrenocortical epithelial cells, renal tubular epithelial cells, macrophages, neutrophils, epidermal keratinocytes, microvascular endothelial cells, and vascular smooth muscle. The minimum set of specimens to be submitted for histopathology and IHC to confirm or exclude a diagnosis of RVFV are liver, spleen, and kidney. Skin from areas with visible crusts and lung could be useful additional samples. In endemic areas, cases of acute renal tubular injury should be investigated further if other more common causes of renal lesions have already been excluded. RVFV can also cause an acute infection in the testis, which requires further investigation.

Abstract
Class A scavenger receptors (SR-As) are a family of five surface receptors whose functions in mammals are associated with innate immunity; however, their role in fish immunity requires further elucidation. The present study identifies, performs sequence analysis, and constitutive transcript expression analysis for three SR-A family members, SCARA3, SCARA4 and SCARA5, from rainbow trout. This work will provide a basis for future studies on SR-A function and their role in innate immunity in this economically important fish.

Abstract
Adenovirus serotype 5 (Ad5) is a common cause of respiratory tract infection, and populations worldwide have high prevalence of anti-Ad5 antibodies, implying extensively prior infection. Ad5 infection potently activates the host innate defense and inflammation, but the molecular mechanisms are not completely clarified. We report here that monocytes from Ad5-seropositive subjects upregulates the expression of scavenger receptor A (SR-A), and the increased SR-A promote the susceptibility of Ad5 entry and subsequent innate signaling activation. SR-A is also known as major receptor for lipid uptake, we therefore observed that monocytes from Ad5-seropositive subjects accumulated the acetylated low-density lipoprotein (acLDL) and had the elevated cellular stress to induce the activation of monocyte/macrophages. These findings demonstrate that SR-A-mediated Ad5 entry, innate signaling activation and acLDL accumulation synergistically trigger the robust antiviral innate and inflammatory responses, which are helpful to our understanding of the pathogenesis of adenovirus infection.

Abstract
Macrophages are a diverse group of phagocytic cells acting in host protection against stress, injury, and pathogens. Here, we show that the scavenger receptor SR-A6 is an entry receptor for human adenoviruses in murine alveolar macrophage-like MPI cells, and important for production of type I interferon. Scavenger receptors contribute to the clearance of endogenous proteins, lipoproteins and pathogens. Knockout of SR-A6 in MPI cells, anti-SR-A6 antibody or the soluble extracellular SR-A6 domain reduced adenovirus type-C5 (HAdV-C5) binding and transduction. Expression of murine SR-A6, and to a lower extent human SR-A6 boosted virion binding to human cells and transduction. Virion clustering by soluble SR-A6 and proximity localization with SR-A6 on MPI cells suggested direct adenovirus interaction with SR-A6. Deletion of the negatively charged hypervariable region 1 (HVR1) of hexon reduced HAdV-C5 binding and transduction, implying that the viral ligand for SR-A6 is hexon. SR-A6 facilitated macrophage entry of HAdV-B35 and HAdV-D26, two important vectors for transduction of hematopoietic cells and human vaccination. The study highlights the importance of scavenger receptors in innate immunity against human viruses. Macrophages are a diverse group of phagocytic cells acting in host protection against stress, injury, and pathogens. They phenotypically and functionally adapt to their local environment, for example, peritoneal macrophages are distinct from brain-resident microglia, from liver-resident Kupffer cells or lung macrophages in the lung. Airway macrophages are among the first cells to encounter human respiratory viruses, such as adenoviruses. They release pro-inflammatory cytokines, kill pathogens, present antigens, and restore tissues. Yet, interactions of viruses with lung macrophages are poorly understood, and it is unclear, how they lead to infection or virus clearance. Here we identified the murine scavenger receptor SR-A6 as a receptor for a subset of human adenoviruses on alveolar macrophage-like cells, so-called MPI cells. Scavenger receptors comprise a large family of trans-membrane proteins, and contribute to the clearance of endogenous proteins, lipoproteins and pathogens. In a series of robust experimentation, we show that adenoviruses use SR-A6 as an entry receptor for infection of MPI cells, and production of type I interferon. MPI cells are non-transformed, self-renewing macrophages derived from fetal murine liver, and closely resemble adult alveolar macrophages. The results demonstrate that SR-A6 binds virions on the surface of alveolar macrophage-like cells, and leads to infection.

Key Role of the Scavenger Receptor MARCO in Mediating Adenovirus Infection and Subsequent Innate Responses of Macrophages. mBio 2017; 8:mBio.00670-17.

Abstract
The scavenger receptor MARCO is expressed in several subsets of naive tissue-resident macrophages and has been shown to participate in the recognition of various bacterial pathogens. However, the role of MARCO in antiviral defense is largely unexplored. Here, we investigated whether MARCO might be involved in the innate sensing of infection with adenovirus and recombinant adenoviral vectors by macrophages, which elicit vigorous immune responses in vivo. Using cells derived from mice, we show that adenovirus infection is significantly more efficient in MARCO-positive alveolar macrophages (AMs) and in AM-like primary macrophage lines (Max Planck Institute cells) than in MARCO-negative bone marrow-derived macrophages. Using antibodies blocking ligand binding to MARCO, as well as gene-deficient and MARCO-transfected cells, we show that MARCO mediates the rapid adenovirus transduction of macrophages. By enhancing adenovirus infection, MARCO contributes to efficient innate virus recognition through the cytoplasmic DNA sensor cGAS. This leads to strong proinflammatory responses, including the production of interleukin-6 (IL-6), alpha/beta interferon, and mature IL-1α. These findings contribute to the understanding of viral pathogenesis in macrophages and may open new possibilities for the development of tools to influence the outcome of infection with adenovirus or adenovirus vectors. Macrophages play crucial roles in inflammation and defense against infection. Several macrophage subtypes have been identified with differing abilities to respond to infection with both natural adenoviruses and recombinant adenoviral vectors. Adenoviruses are important respiratory pathogens that elicit vigorous innate responses in vitro and in vivo. The cell surface receptors mediating macrophage type-specific adenovirus sensing are largely unknown. The scavenger receptor MARCO is expressed on some subsets of naive tissue-resident macrophages, including lung alveolar macrophages. Its role in antiviral macrophage responses is largely unexplored. Here, we studied whether the differential expression of MARCO might contribute to the various susceptibilities of macrophage subtypes to adenovirus. We demonstrate that MARCO significantly enhances adenovirus infection and innate responses in macrophages. These results help to understand adenoviral pathogenesis and may open new possibilities to influence the outcome of infection with adenoviruses or adenovirus vectors.

Abstract
Intracellular pathogens have evolved a wide range of strategies to not only escape from the immune systems of their hosts, but also to directly exploit a variety of host factors to facilitate the infection process. One such strategy is to subvert host cell signalling pathways to the advantage of the pathogen. Recent research has highlighted that the human serine/threonine kinase PAK, or p21-activated kinase, is a central component of host-pathogen interactions in many infection systems involving viruses, bacteria, and eukaryotic pathogens. PAK paralogues are found in most mammalian tissues, where they play vital roles in a wide range of functions. The role of PAKs in cell proliferation and survival, and their involvement in a number of cancers, is of great interest in the context of drug discovery. In this review we discuss the latest insights into the surprisingly central role human PAK1 plays for the infection by such different infectious disease agents as viruses, bacteria, and parasitic protists. It is our intention to open serious discussion on the applicability of PAK inhibitors for the treatment, not only of neoplastic diseases, which is currently the primary objective of drug discovery research targeting these enzymes, but also of a wide range of infectious diseases.

FISH & SHELLFISH IMMUNOLOGY 2016; 58:73-81. [PMID: 27633673 DOI: 10.1016/j.fsi.2016.09.023] [Citation(s) in RCA: 14] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.8] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/12/2016] [Revised: 09/02/2016] [Accepted: 09/11/2016] [Indexed: 06/06/2023]
Abstract
Class B scavenger receptors (SRBs), which are present in mammals and insects, have been implicated in a wide range of functions. Herein, a novel SRB homologue, PtSRB, was cloned from the swimming crab, Portunus trituberculatus. PtSRB has 538 amino acid residues, and it consists of two transmembrane regions, a large extracellular loop, and two intracellular tails. A phylogenetic analysis showed that PtSRB distinctly clustered with Marsupenaeus japonicas SRB-1 and most Drosophila SRB homologues, including Croquemort, Peste, NinaD, and Santa Maria, but was separate from the Drosophila sensory neuron membrane protein, MjSRB-2, and all vertebrate SRBs. Real-time quantitative PCR analyses showed that the PtSRB gene was constitutively expressed in all tissues tested. When PtSRB was overexpressed in human embryonic kidney 293T cells, it was distributed in the membrane and cytoplasm. Moreover, in vitro assays showed that rPtSRB bound microbial lipopolysaccharide with low affinity, and lipoteichoic acid and peptidoglycan with high affinity. PtSRB transcripts were down-regulated after challenge with Vibrio alginolyticus or white spot syndrome virus, but not after a Candida lusitaniae challenge. This study provides valuable data for understanding the role of SRBs in the host defense against microbial pathogens, which will facilitate future studies of host-pathogen interactions in crabs.

The Parathyroid Hormone Second Receptor PTH2R and its Ligand Tuberoinfundibular Peptide of 39 Residues TIP39 Regulate Intracellular Calcium and Influence Keratinocyte Differentiation. J Invest Dermatol 2016; 136:1449-1459.

Abstract
Genes related to the parathyroid hormone (PTH) influence cutaneous immune defense and development, but the full functions of the PTH family in cutaneous biology remain incompletely understood. In this study, we examined the expression and potential functions of the PTH second receptor (PTH2R) and its ligand, the tuberoinfundibular peptide of 39 residues (TIP39), in the skin. TIP39 and PTH2R mRNA and protein were detectable in both human and mouse skin, and in cultured keratinocytes and adipocytes. TIP39 was observed in the basal layer of human skin, whereas PTH2R was detected in the spinous to granular layer. The subcellular localization of TIP39 in keratinocytes changed during calcium-induced differentiation and shifted to colocalize with PTH2R at the membrane. The addition of recombinant TIP39 to normal human keratinocytes in culture induced an increase in intercellular calcium and triggered aspects of terminal differentiation including decreased keratin-14 and increased involucrin expression. Consistent with these observations, PTH2R(-/-) mice were observed to have increased epidermal thickness. In summary, identification of TIP39 and its receptor in the epidermis reveals an additional PTH family member that is expressed in the skin and may influence keratinocyte function.
