Abstract
Influenza A viruses (IAVs) pose a significant global threat to human health. A tightly controlled host immune response is critical to avoid any detrimental effects of IAV infection. It is critical to investigate the association between the response of Toll-like receptors (TLRs) and influenza virus. Because TLRs may act as a double-edged sword, a balanced TLR response is critical for the overall benefit of the host. Consequently, a thorough understanding of the TLR response is essential for targeting TLRs as a novel therapeutic and prophylactic intervention. To date, a limited number of studies have assessed TLR and IAV interactions. Therefore, further research on TLR interactions in IAV infection should be conducted to determine their role in host-virus interactions in disease causation or clearance of the virus. Although influenza virus vaccines are available, they have limited efficacy, which should be enhanced to improve their efficacy. In this study, we discuss the current status of our understanding of the TLR response in IAV infection and the strategies adopted by IAVs to avoid TLR-mediated immune surveillance, which may help in devising new therapeutic or preventive strategies. Furthermore, recent advances in the use of TLR agonists as vaccine adjuvants to enhance influenza vaccine efficacy are discussed.

[PMID: 38891876 PMCID: PMC11172324 DOI: 10.3390/ijms25115688] [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: 03/30/2024] [Revised: 05/17/2024] [Accepted: 05/22/2024] [Indexed: 06/21/2024] Open
Abstract
Enterovirus A71 (EV-A71) is a major pathogen causing hand, foot, and mouth disease (HFMD) in children worldwide. It can lead to severe gastrointestinal, pulmonary, and neurological complications. The innate immune system, which rapidly detects pathogens via pathogen-associated molecular patterns or pathogen-encoded effectors, serves as the first defensive line against EV-A71 infection. Concurrently, the virus has developed various sophisticated strategies to evade host antiviral responses and establish productive infection. Thus, the virus-host interactions and conflicts, as well as the ability to govern biological events at this first line of defense, contribute significantly to the pathogenesis and outcomes of EV-A71 infection. In this review, we update recent progress on host innate immune responses to EV-A71 infection. In addition, we discuss the underlying strategies employed by EV-A71 to escape host innate immune responses. A better understanding of the interplay between EV-A71 and host innate immunity may unravel potential antiviral targets, as well as strategies that can improve patient outcomes.

Abstract
Influenza A virus (IAV) is a highly contagious pathogen causing dreadful losses to humans and animals around the globe. As is known, immune escape is a strategy that benefits the proliferation of IAVs by antagonizing, blocking, and suppressing immune surveillance. The HA protein binds to the sialic acid (SA) receptor to enter the cytoplasm and initiate viral infection. The conserved components of the viral genome produced during replication, known as the pathogen-associated molecular patterns (PAMPs), are thought to be critical factors for the activation of effective innate immunity by triggering dependent signaling pathways after recognition by pattern recognition receptors (PRRs), followed by a cascade of adaptive immunity. Viral infection-induced immune responses establish an antiviral state in the host to effectively inhibit virus replication and enhance viral clearance. However, IAV has evolved multiple mechanisms that allow it to synthesize and transport viral components by "playing games" with the host. At its heart, this review will describe how host and viral factors interact to facilitate the viral evasion of host immune responses.

Xie F, Xu M. SOX4 silencing alleviates renal injury in rats with acute renal failure by inhibiting the NF-κB signaling pathway and reducing apoptosis and oxidative stress. J Biochem Mol Toxicol 2024; 38:e23703.

Abstract
Acute renal failure (ARF) is a huge threat to the lives of most patients in intensive care units, and there is currently no satisfactory treatment strategy. SRY-box transcription factor 4 (SOX4) plays a key role in the development of various diseases, but its effect on ARF is unknown. Therefore, this study aimed to explore the relationship between SOX4 and ARF. Blood samples were collected from 20 ARF patients and 20 healthy volunteers. We also established an ARF rat model by excising the right kidney and ligating the left renal artery, and SOX4 knockdown in ARF rats was achieved down by means of lentiviral infection. Subsequently, we used quantitative polymerase chain reaction and western bolt assays to detect the expression levels of SOX4 and nuclear factor-κB (NF-κB) signaling pathway-related proteins in human blood or rat renal tissue and hematoxylin and eosin and terminal deoxynucleotidyl transferase (TdT) 2'-deoxyuridine 5'-triphosphate (dUTP) nick-end labeling staining to observe the pathological changes and apoptosis of renal tissue. Enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay and biochemical kits were used to measure the levels of renal function-related indicators (blood urea nitrogen, creatinine, and neutrophil gelatinase-associated lipocalin) and inflammatory factors (interleukin [IL]-1β, IL-6, and tumor necrosis factor-alpha), as well as changes in oxidative stress-related indicators (malondialdehyde [MDA], superoxide dismutase [SOD], and reactive oxygen species [ROS]) in rat serum. SOX4 expression levels in blood samples from ARF patients and renal tissue from ARF rats were significantly higher compared with those in healthy volunteers and control rats, respectively. ARF model rats displayed the typical ARF phenotype, while SOX4 silencing significantly improved pathological injury and apoptosis of renal tissue in ARF rats. Moreover, SOX4 silencing significantly inhibited increased levels of renal function-related indicators and inflammatory factors and reduced the level of excessive oxidative stress (MDA and ROS were upregulated, and SOD was downregulated) in ARF rats. SOX4 also reduced the activity of the NF-κB signaling pathway in ARF samples. Thus, SOX4 knockdown may reduce oxidative stress, the inflammatory response, and apoptosis by reducing the activity of the NF-κB signaling pathway, thereby improving renal injury in ARF rats.

Abstract
Influenza is an infectious acute respiratory disease with complications and a high mortality rate; the effective medicines for influenza therapy are limited. "Huanglian" or Coptidis Rhizoma, Coptis chinensis Franch., Ranunculaceae, and "ganjiang" or Zingiberis Rhizoma, Zingiber officinale Roscoe, Zingiberaceae, combination is clinically used for treating respiratory diseases. HPLC was applied for the quantification of berberine hydrochloride (1.101 mg/ml) and 6-gingerol (38.41 μg/ml) in the H2O-soluble extract of the herbal formulation. In this study, the effect of "huanglian"- "ganjiang" extract on influenza virus H1N1-induced acute pulmonary inflammation was evaluated, in addition to the investigation of its anti-influenza mechanism in a mouse model. The analyzed herbal combination inhibited the expression of cytokine IL-6 and stimulated the expression of IL-2 in the serum of influenza virus-infected mice. Meanwhile, the herbal combination downregulated the gene and protein expression levels of TLR3, TLR7, MyD88, RIG-I, MAVS, TRAF3, and NF-κB p65, which are key targets of toll-like and RIG-I-like receptor signaling pathways in mice. In addition, the herbal combination could also promote the combination of intracellular autophagosomes and lysosomes in autophagosome-lysosome formation and improve impaired fusion of autophagosomes and lysosomes by influenza virus. This study suggested that the "huanglian"- "ganjiang" extract may be a candidate therapeutic strategy for the treatment of H1N1 influenza.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Enterovirus A71 (EV-A71) is an important causative agent of hand-foot-and-mouth disease (HFMD) associated with enormous healthcare and socioeconomic burden. Although a range of studies about EV-A71 pathogenesis have been well described, the underlying molecular mechanism in terms of innate immune response is still not fully understood, especially the roles of TANK-binding kinase 1 (TBK1) and interferon-regulatory factor 3 (IRF3). METHODOLOGY/PRINCIPAL FINDINGS Here, we applied TBK1 inhibitor and IRF3 agonist, for the first time, to evaluate the antiviral activities of TBK1 and IRF3 in vivo. We found that, through regulating EV-A71-induced type I interferon (IFN) response, IRF3 agonist effectively alleviated EV-A71-induced illness, while TBK1 inhibitor aggravated disease progression. In addition, EV-A71 replication was suppressed in EVA-71-infected mice administrated with IRF3 agonist. On the other hand, more severe pathological alterations of neuronal degeneration, muscle fiber breaks, fractured or fused alveolar walls, and diffuse congestion occurred in EVA-71-infected mice treated with TBK1 inhibitor administration. Furthermore, we determined the concentrations of interleukin (IL)-6, tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-α), IL-1β, monocyte chemotactic protein-1 (MCP-1), and IL-10 in both lungs and brains of mice and found that TBK1 inhibitor promoted EV-A71-induced inflammatory response, while IRF3 agonist alleviated it, which was consistent with clinical manifestations and pathological alterations. CONCLUSIONS Collectively, our findings suggest that TBK1 and IRF3 are potential therapeutic targets in EV-A71-induced illness.

Abstract
Acute pancreatitis (AP) is an acute inflammatory disease of the exocrine pancreas. The pathogenesis of AP is still unclear, and there is currently no specific treatment. A variety of immune cells infiltrate in AP, which may play an important role in the progression of the disease. In this study, for the first time, scRNA-Seq and Bulk RNA-Seq data were used to show the characteristics of immune cell infiltration in AP, and to explore the specific molecular markers of different cell types. The present study also investigated cell-to-cell communication networks using the CellChat package, and AP-specific gene signatures (Clic1, Sat1, Serpina3n, Atf3, Lcn2, Osmr, Ccl9, Hspb1, Anxa2, Krt8, Cd44, Cd9, Hsp90aa1, Tmsb10, Hmox1, Fxyd5, Plin2, Pnp) were identified through integrative analysis of multiple sequencing datasets. We also defined disease-specific associated genes in different cell types, revealing dynamic changes through cell trajectory and pseudo-time analysis using the Monocle2 package. The results showed that macrophages were significantly increased in acute pancreatitis, and the number of interactions and interaction weight/strength of the macrophages in AP were significantly higher than those in the controls. The activities of various signaling pathways were abnormally regulated such as apoptosis, oxidative stress, lysosome, autophagy, ferroptosis, and inflammatory responses signaling pathways. In conclusion, this study comprehensively depicted the immune microenvironment of AP, explored the interaction network between different cell types, and defined AP-specific gene signatures, providing many new directions for basic research in AP.

Abstract
Diabetic retinopathy (DR) is a type of main microvascular complication of diabetes mellitus (DM) and an important factor that causes blindness in adults. SOX4 is a transcription factor expressed in the pancreas and is essential for normal endocrine pancreatic development. However, the effect and the regulatory mechanism of SOX4 on DR have not been reported. In the present study, upregulation of SOX4 was found in DM patients, particularly in DR patients and mice models. The in vitro experiments showed that SOX4 depletion increased the viability and inhibited the inflammation level of human retinal endothelial cells (HRCECs) induced by high glucose. Besides, SOX4 knockdown inhibited the migration and angiogenesis of HRCECs upon high glucose treatment. Mechanically, depletion of SOX4 inhibited the NF-κB pathway. Therefore, SOX4 could serve as a promising target for DR treatment.

Abstract
Enterovirus 71 (EV71) is the major pathogen of hand, foot, and mouth disease. In severe cases, it can cause life-threatening neurological complications, such as aseptic meningitis and polio-like paralysis. There are no specific antiviral treatments for EV71 infections. In a previous study, the host protein growth arrest and DNA damage-inducible protein 34 (GADD34) expression was upregulated during EV71 infection determined by ribosome profiling and RNA-sequencing. Here, we investigated the interactions of host protein GADD34 and EV71 during infections. Rhabdomyosarcoma (RD) cells were infected with EV71 resulting in a significant increase in expression of GADD34 mRNA and protein. Through screening of EV71 protein we determined that the non-structural precursor protein 3CD is responsible for upregulating GADD34. EV71 3CD increased the RNA and protein levels of GADD34, while the 3CD mutant Y441S could not. 3CD upregulated GADD34 translation via the upstream open reading frame (uORF) of GADD34 5'untranslated regions (UTR). EV71 replication was attenuated by the knockdown of GADD34. The function of GADD34 to dephosphorylate eIF2α was unrelated to the upregulation of EV71 replication, but the PEST 1, 2, and 3 regions of GADD34 were required. GADD34 promoted the EV71 internal ribosome entry site (IRES) activity through the PEST repeats and affected several other viruses. Finally, GADD34 amino acids 563 to 565 interacted with 3CD, assisting GADD34 to target the EV71 IRES. Our research reveals a new mechanism by which GADD34 promotes viral IRES and how the EV71 non-structural precursor protein 3CD regulates host protein expression to support viral replication. IMPORTANCE Identification of host factors involved in viral replication is an important approach in discovering viral pathogenic mechanisms and identifying potential therapeutic targets. Previously, we screened host proteins that were upregulated by EV71 infection. Here, we report the interaction between the upregulated host protein GADD34 and EV71. EV71 non-structural precursor protein 3CD activates the RNA and protein expression of GADD34. Our study reveals that 3CD regulates the uORF of the 5′-UTR to increase GADD34 translation, providing a new explanation for how viral proteins regulate host protein expression. GADD34 is important for EV71 replication, and the key functional domains of GADD34 that promote EV71 are PEST 1, 2, and 3 regions. We report that GADD34 promotes viral IRES for the first time and this process is independent of its eIF2α phosphatase activity.

Abstract
Feline viral diseases, such as feline panleukopenia, feline infectious peritonitis, and feline coronaviral enteritis, seriously endanger the health of cats, and restrict the development of pet industry. Meanwhile, there is a current lack of effective vaccines to protect against feline viral diseases. Thus, effective therapeutic agents are highly desirable. Interferons (IFNs) are important mediators of the antiviral host defense in animals, particularly type I IFNs. In this study, a novel feline IFN omega (feIFN-ω) gene was extracted from the cat stimulated with feline parvovirus (FPV) combined with poly(I:C), and following codon optimization encoding the feIFN-ω, the desired gene (feIFN-ω’) fragment was inserted into plasmid pPICZαA, and transformed into Pichia pastoris GS115, generating a recombinant P. pastoris GS115 strain expressing the feIFN-ω’. After induction, we found that the expression level of the feIFN-ω’ was two times more than that of feIFN-ω (p < 0.01). Subsequently, the feIFN-ω’ was purified and modified with polyethylene glycol, and its antiviral efficacy was evaluated in vitro and in vivo, using vesicular stomatitis virus (VSV) and FPV as model virus. Our results clearly demonstrated that the feIFN-ω’ had significant antiviral activities on both homologous and heterologous animal cells in vitro. Importantly, the feIFN-ω’ can effectively promote the expression of antiviral proteins IFIT3, ISG15, Mx1, and ISG56, and further enhance host defense to eliminate FPV infection in vivo, suggesting a potential candidate for the development of therapeutic agent against feline viral diseases.

Abstract
Outbreaks of influenza, caused by the influenza A virus (IAV), occur almost every year in various regions worldwide, seriously endangering human health. Studies have shown that host non-coding RNA is an important regulator of host-virus interactions in the process of IAV infection. In this paper, we comprehensively analyzed the research progress on host non-coding RNAs with regard to the regulation of IAV replication. According to the regulation mode of host non-coding RNAs, the signal pathways involved, and the specific target genes, we found that a large number of host non-coding RNAs directly targeted the PB1 and PB2 proteins of IAV. Nonstructural protein 1 and other key genes regulate the replication of IAV and indirectly participate in the regulation of the retinoic acid-induced gene I-like receptor signaling pathway, toll-like receptor signaling pathway, Janus kinase signal transducer and activator of transcription signaling pathway, and other major intracellular viral response signaling pathways to regulate the replication of IAV. Based on the above findings, we mapped the regulatory network of host non-coding RNAs in the innate immune response to the influenza virus. These findings will provide a more comprehensive understanding of the function and mechanism of host non-coding RNAs in the cellular anti-virus response as well as clues to the mechanism of cell-virus interactions and the discovery of antiviral drug targets.
