[PMID: 36703013 PMCID: PMC9879738 DOI: 10.1007/s10123-023-00330-8] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/27/2022] [Revised: 01/06/2023] [Accepted: 01/17/2023] [Indexed: 01/28/2023]
Abstract
OBJECTIVE The present study aimed to explore if bovine parvovirus (BPV) impacts beta interferon (IFN-β) production and to reveal further molecular mechanism of BPV immune escape. METHOD The pCMV-Myc-BPV-VP1 recombinant plasmid was verified with both double-enzyme digestion and sequence. HEK 293 T cells were transfected with this recombinant protein and then infected with the vesicular stomatitis virus (VSV). Expression levels of IFN-β mRNA were detected using qPCR. RESULTS The expression level of BPV VP1 mRNA in the pCMV-Myc-BPV-VP1 group was significantly higher than those of the untreated group (UT) and pCMV-Myc vector group. BPV virus copies in bovine turbinate (BT) cells of the BPV-VP1 group were raised (P < 0.05) with an increment of 5.8 × 104. Expression levels of IFN-β mRNA of the BPV VP1 group in HEK 293 T cells were decreased (P < 0.01). Following treatment of TBK1 and IRF3(5D), IFN-β expression levels in HEK 293 T cells were depressed. Additionally, expression levels of TBK1, IRF3(5D), MDA5, and MAVS were less than those of the flag empty vector, respectively. CONCLUSION pCMV-Myc-BPV-VP1 could heighten transcription levels of VP1 protein in BT cells, promote BPV proliferation, and ascend the production of IFN-β. Overexpression of pCMV-Myc-BPV-VP decreased IFN-β mRNA expression in HEK 293 T cells and inhibited IFN-β production induced by TBK1 and IRF3(5D). Furthermore, BPV VP1 obviously declined expression levels of TBK1, IRF3(5D), MDA5, and MAVS in the RIG-I-like receptor (RLR) pathway. Our findings revealed a novel mechanism evolved by BPV VP1 to inhibit type I IFN production and provided a solid scientific basis into the immunosuppression of BPV.

Abstract
Viruses that emerge pose challenges for treatment options as their uniqueness would not know completely. Hence, many viruses are causing high morbidity and mortality for a long time. Despite large diversity, viruses share common characteristics for infection. At least 12 different respiratory-borne viruses are reported belonging to various virus taxonomic families. Many of these viruses multiply and cause damage to the upper and lower respiratory tracts. The description of these viruses in comparison with each other concerning their epidemiology, molecular characteristics, disease manifestations, diagnosis and treatment is lacking. Such information helps diagnose, differentiate, and formulate the control measures faster. The leading cause of acute illness worldwide is acute respiratory infections (ARIs) and are responsible for nearly 4 million deaths every year, mostly in young children and infants. Lower respiratory tract infections are the fourth most common cause of death globally, after non-infectious chronic conditions. This review aims to present the characteristics of different viruses causing respiratory infections, highlighting the uniqueness of SARS-CoV-2. We expect this review to help understand the similarities and differences among the closely related viruses causing respiratory infections and formulate specific preventive or control measures.

Abstract
Molecular motors are microscopic machines that use energy from adenosine triphosphate (ATP) hydrolysis to generate movement. While kinesins and dynein are molecular motors associated with microtubule tracks, myosins bind to and move on actin filaments. Mammalian cells express several myosin motors. They power cellular processes such as endo- and exocytosis, intracellular trafficking, transcription, migration, and cytokinesis. As viruses navigate through cells, they may take advantage or be hindered by host components and machinery, including the cytoskeleton. This review delves into myosins' cell roles and compares them to their reported functions in viral infections. In most cases, the previously described myosin functions align with their reported role in viral infections, although not in all cases. This opens the possibility that knowledge obtained from studying myosins in viral infections might shed light on new physiological roles for myosins in cells. However, given the high number of myosins expressed and the variety of viruses investigated in the different studies, it is challenging to infer whether the interactions found are specific to a single virus or can be applied to other viruses with the same characteristics. We conclude that the participation of myosins in viral cycles is still a largely unexplored area, especially concerning unconventional myosins.

Abstract
Calf diarrhoea has been a major cause of economic losses in the global dairy industry. Many factors, including multiple pathogen infections, can directly or indirectly cause calf diarrhoea. This study compared the faecal virome between 15 healthy calves and 15 calves with diarrhoea. Significantly lower diversity of viruses was found in samples from animals with diarrhoea than those in the healthy ones, and this feature may also be related to the age of the calves. Viruses belonging to the families Astroviridae and Caliciviridae that may cause diarrhoea in dairy calves have been characterized, which revealed that reads of caliciviruses and astroviruses in diarrhoea calves were much higher than those in healthy calves. Five complete genomic sequences closely related to Smacoviridae have been identified, which may participate in the regulation of the gut virus community ecology of healthy hosts together with bacteriophages. This research provides a theoretical basis for further understanding of known or potential enteric pathogens related to calf diarrhoea.

Abstract
Human bocavirus 1 (HBoV1) and HBoV2-4 infect children and immunocompromised individuals, resulting in respiratory and gastrointestinal infections, respectively. Using cryo-electron microscopy and image reconstruction, the HBoV2 capsid structure was determined to 2.7 Å resolution at pH 7.4 and compared to the previously determined HBoV1, HBoV3, and HBoV4 structures. Consistent with previous findings, surface variable region (VR) III of the capsid protein VP3, proposed as a host tissue-tropism determinant, was structurally similar among the gastrointestinal strains HBoV2-4, but differed from HBoV1 with its tropism for the respiratory tract. Towards understanding the entry and trafficking properties of these viruses, HBoV1 and HBoV2 were further analyzed as species representatives of the two HBoV tropisms. Their cell surface glycan-binding characteristics were analyzed, and capsid structures determined to 2.5-2.7 Å resolution at pH 5.5 and 2.6, conditions normally encountered during infection. The data showed that glycans with terminal sialic acid, galactose, GlcNAc or heparan sulfate moieties do not facilitate HBoV1 or HBoV2 cellular attachment. With respect to trafficking, conformational changes common to both viruses were observed at low pH conditions localized to the VP N-terminus under the 5-fold channel, in the surface loops VR-I and VR-V and specific side-chain residues such as cysteines and histidines. The 5-fold conformational movements provide insight into the potential mechanism of VP N-terminal dynamics during HBoV infection and side-chain modifications highlight pH-sensitive regions of the capsid.IMPORTANCE Human bocaviruses (HBoVs) are associated with disease in humans. However, the lack of an animal model and a versatile cell culture system to study their life cycle limits the ability to develop specific treatments or vaccines. This study presents the structure of HBoV2, at 2.7 Å resolution, determined for comparison to the existing HBoV1, HBoV3, and HBoV4 structures, to enable the molecular characterization of strain and genus-specific capsid features contributing to tissue tropism and antigenicity. Furthermore, HBoV1 and HBoV2 structures determined under acidic conditions provide insight into capsid changes associated with endosomal and gastrointestinal acidification. Structural rearrangements of the capsid VP N-terminus, at the base of the 5-fold channel, demonstrate a disordering of a "basket" motif as pH decreases. These observations begin to unravel the molecular mechanism of HBoV infection and provide information for control strategies.

Abstract
Human bocavirus 1 (HBoV1), a nonenveloped single-stranded DNA parvovirus, causes mild to life-threatening respiratory tract infections, acute otitis media, and encephalitis in young children. HBoV1 often persists in nasopharyngeal secretions for months, hampering diagnosis. It has also been shown to persist in pediatric palatine and adenoid tonsils, which suggests that lymphoid organs are reservoirs for virus spread; however, the tissue site and host cells remain unknown. Our aim was to determine, in healthy nonviremic children with preexisting HBoV1 immunity, the adenotonsillar persistence site(s), host cell types, and virus activity. We discovered that HBoV1 DNA persists in lymphoid germinal centers (GCs), but not in the corresponding tonsillar epithelium, and that the cell types harboring the virus are mainly naive, activated, and memory B cells and monocytes. Both viral DNA strands and both sides of the genome were detected, as well as infrequent mRNA. Moreover, we showed, in B-cell and monocyte cultures and ex vivo tonsillar B cells, that the cellular uptake of HBoV1 occurs via the Fc receptor (FcγRII) through antibody-dependent enhancement (ADE). This resulted in viral mRNA transcription, known to occur exclusively from double-stranded DNA in the nucleus, however, with no detectable productive replication. Confocal imaging with fluorescent virus-like particles moreover disclosed endocytosis. To which extent the active HBoV1 GC persistence has a role in chronic inflammation or B-cell maturation disturbances, and whether the virus can be reactivated, will be interesting topics for forthcoming studies.IMPORTANCE Human bocavirus 1 (HBoV1), a common pediatric respiratory pathogen, can persist in airway secretions for months hampering diagnosis. It also persists in tonsils, providing potential reservoirs for airway shedding, with the exact location, host cell types, and virus activity unknown. Our study provides new insights into tonsillar HBoV1 persistence. We observed HBoV1 persistence exclusively in germinal centers where immune maturation occurs, and the main host cells were B cells and monocytes. In cultured cell lines and primary tonsillar B cells, we showed the virus uptake to be significantly enhanced by HBoV1-specific antibodies, mediated by the cellular IgG receptor, leading to viral mRNA synthesis, but without detectable productive replication. Possible implications of such active viral persistence could be tonsillar inflammation, disturbances in immune maturation, reactivation, or cell death with release of virus DNA, explaining the long-lasting HBoV1 airway shedding.

Abstract
H-1 protoparvovirus (H-1PV) is a self-propagating virus that is non-pathogenic in humans and has oncolytic and oncosuppressive activities. H-1PV is the first member of the Parvoviridae family to undergo clinical testing as an anticancer agent. Results from clinical trials in patients with glioblastoma or pancreatic carcinoma show that virus treatment is safe, well-tolerated and associated with first signs of efficacy. Characterisation of the H-1PV life cycle may help to improve its efficacy and clinical outcome. In this study, we investigated the entry route of H-1PV in cervical carcinoma HeLa and glioma NCH125 cell lines. Using electron and confocal microscopy, we detected H-1PV particles within clathrin-coated pits and vesicles, providing evidence that the virus uses clathrin-mediated endocytosis for cell entry. In agreement with these results, we found that blocking clathrin-mediated endocytosis using specific inhibitors or small interfering RNA-mediated knockdown of its key regulator, AP2M1, markedly reduced H-1PV entry. By contrast, we found no evidence of viral entry through caveolae-mediated endocytosis. We also show that H-1PV entry is dependent on dynamin, while viral trafficking occurs from early to late endosomes, with acidic pH necessary for a productive infection. This is the first study that characterises the cell entry pathways of oncolytic H-1PV.

Hsv-1 Endocytic Entry into a Human Oligodendrocytic Cell Line is Mediated by Clathrin and Dynamin but Not Caveolin. Viruses 2020; 12:v12070734.

Abstract
Endocytosis is a pathway used by viruses to enter cells that can be classified based on the proteins involved, such as dynamin, clathrin or caveolin. Although the entry of herpes simplex type 1 (HSV-1) by endocytosis has been documented in different cell types, its dependence on clathrin has not been described whereas its dependence on dynamin has been shown according to the cell line used. The present work shows how clathrin-mediated endocytosis (CME) is one way that HSV-1 infects the human oligodendroglial (HOG) cell line. Partial dynamin inhibition using dynasore revealed a relationship between decrease of infection and dynamin inhibition, measured by viral titration and immunoblot. Co-localization between dynamin and HSV-1 was verified by immunofluorescence at the moment of viral entry into the cell. Inhibition by chlorpromazine revealed that viral progeny also decreased when clathrin was partially inhibited in our cell line. RT-qPCR of immediately early viral genes, specific entry assays and electron microscopy all confirmed clathrin's participation in HSV-1 entry into HOG cells. In contrast, caveolin entry assays showed no effect on the entry of this virus. Therefore, our results suggest the participation of dynamin and clathrin during endocytosis of HSV-1 in HOG cells.

Abstract
Bovine rotavirus (BRV), bovine parvovirus (BPV), and bovine viral diarrhea virus (BVDV) are the pathogens that cause diarrhea primarily in newborn calves. A mixed infection of BRV, BPV, and BVDV makes clinical diagnosis difficult. In this study, we designed dual-priming oligonucleotide (DPO) primers the VP6 gene of BRV, VP2 gene of BPV, and 5′UTR gene of BVDV and synthesized gold nanoparticles (GNPs) with an average diameter of 10 nm. We combined the DPOs with the GNPs to develop a DPO-nanoPCR assay for detecting BRV, BPV, and BVDV. The annealing temperature, primer concentration, and GNP concentration were optimized for this assay. Compared to a conventional PCR assay, the DPO-nanoPCR assay allowed the use of a wider range of annealing temperatures (41–65°C) to effectively amplify target genes. PCR amplification was the most efficient at 56.2°C using conventional primers. The optimal volume of all the primers (10 μM) was 1.0 μL. The optimal volume of GNPs (10 nM) for all the reactions was 0.5 μL. The detection limits of DPO-nanoPCR for pMD19-T-VP6, pMD19-T-VP2, and pMD19-T-5′UTR were 9.40 × 102 copies/μL, 5.14 × 103 copies/μL, and 4.09 × 101 copies/μL, respectively; and those using conventional PCR were 9.40 × 104 copies/μL, 5.14 × 105 copies/μL, and 4.09 × 104 copies/μL, respectively. The sensitivity of DPO-nanoPCR was at least 100-fold higher than that of conventional PCR. The specificity detection showed that the DPO-nanoPCR was able to specifically detect BRV, BPV, and BVDV. Use of clinical samples indicated that target viruses can be detected accurately. Thus, DPO-nanoPCR is a new powerful, simple, specific, and sensitive tool for detecting mixed infections of BRV, BPV, and BVDV.

Abstract
Prevention and control of infection by porcine reproductive and respiratory syndrome virus (PRRSV) remains a challenge, due to our limited understanding of the PRRSV invasion mechanism. Our previous study has shown that PRRSV glycoprotein GP5 interacts with MYH9 C-terminal domain protein (PRA). Here we defined that the first ectodomain of GP5 (GP5-ecto-1) directly interacted with PRA and this interaction triggered PRA and endogenous MYH9 to form filament assembly. More importantly, MYH9 filament assembly was also formed in GP5-ecto-1-transfected MARC-145 cells. Notably, PRRSV infection of MARC-145 cells and porcine alveolar macrophages also induced endogenous MYH9 aggregation and polymerization that were required for subsequent PRRSV internalization. Moreover, overexpression of S100A4, a MYH9-specific disassembly inducer, in MARC-145 cells significantly resulted in diminished MYH9 aggregation and marked inhibition of subsequent virion internalization and infection by both PRRSV-1 and PRRSV-2 isolates. The collective results of this work reveal a novel molecular mechanism employed by MYH9 that helps PRRSV gain entry into permissive cells.

Abstract
The Protoparvovirus (PtPV) genus of the Parvoviridae family of viruses includes important animal pathogens and reference molecular models for the entire family. Some virus members of the PtPV genus have arisen as promising tools to treat tumoral processes, as they exhibit marked oncotropism and oncolytic activities while being nonpathogenic for humans. The PtPVs invade and replicate within the nucleus making extensive use of the transport, transcription and replication machineries of the host cells. In order to reach the nucleus, PtPVs need to cross over several intracellular barriers and traffic through different cell compartments, which limit their infection efficiency. In this review we summarize molecular interactions, capsid structural transitions and hijacking of cellular processes, by which the PtPVs enter and deliver their single-stranded DNA genome into the host cell nucleus. Understanding mechanisms that govern the complex PtPV entry will be instrumental in developing approaches to boost their anticancer therapeutic potential and improving their safety profile.

Abstract
In the present study the ultrastructure and function of the endothelial cells enveloping the muscle trabeculae in heart in two teleosts, platyfish and firemouth cichlid, are described and discussed. These cells displayed a structure making them able to take up large amounts of foreign ferritin particles from the blood stream. The ferritin particles were assembled into huge phagolysosomes. Large amounts of Prussian blue were precipitated throughout these lysosomes when treated with acid ferrohexacyanide solution. The occurrence of Prussian blue precipitations in the control heart endothelial cells after Schmorl's solution, suggests that these cells normally contain undigestible material, a finding which strengthens the view that this tissue is involved in blood clearance in the present species. In conclusion, these heart endothelial cells seem able to perform a very efficient blood clearance of scavenger and foreign macromolecules and particles in the present species.

Abstract
RNA interference (RNAi) is a highly conserved gene regulatory mechanism in eukaryotic organisms; however, an understanding of mechanisms of cellular uptake of double-stranded RNA (dsRNA) in different organisms remains elusive. By using pharmacological inhibitors of different endocytic pathways in conjunction with RNAi of a marker gene (lethal giant larvae, TcLgl) in the red flour beetle (Tribolium castaneum), we demonstrated that two inhibitors (chlorpromazine and bafilomycin-A1) of clathrin-dependent endocytosis can nearly abolish or significantly diminish RNAi of TcLgl, whereas methyl-β-cyclodextrin and cytochalasin-D, known to inhibit other endocytic pathways, showed no effect on RNAi of TcLgl. By using Cy3-labeled TcLgl dsRNA, we observed significantly reduced cellular uptake of TcLgl dsRNA in midgut cells after larvae were injected with each of the two clathrin-dependent endocytosis inhibitors. By using an "RNAi of RNAi" strategy, we further demonstrated that suppression of each transcript of the four key genes encoding clathrin heavy chain (TcChc), clathrin coat assembly protein AP50 (TcAP50), vacuolar (H(+))-ATPase subunit H (TcVhaSFD) and a ras-related protein (TcRab7) in clathrin-dependent endocytosis by RNAi can significantly impair RNAi of TcLgl. These results support our conclusion that clathrin-dependent endocytosis is a major mechanism in cellular uptake of dsRNA in T. castaneum. Our study also provides new insights into improving RNAi efficiency by enhancing dsRNA endosomal release.

Abstract
To get access to the replication site, small non-enveloped DNA viruses have to cross the cell membrane using a limited number of capsid proteins, which also protect the viral genome in the extracellular environment. Most of DNA viruses have to reach the nucleus to replicate. The capsid proteins involved in transmembrane penetration are exposed or released during endosomal trafficking of the virus. Subsequently, the conserved domains of capsid proteins interact with cellular membranes and ensure their efficient permeabilization. This review summarizes our current knowledge concerning the role of capsid proteins of small non-enveloped DNA viruses in intracellular membrane perturbation in the early stages of infection.

Abstract
![]()
A series of 2-adamantanamines with
alkyl adducts of various lengths
were examined for efficacy against strains of influenza A including
those having an S31N mutation in M2 proton channel that confer resistance
to amantadine and rimantadine. The addition of as little as one CH2 group to the methyl adduct of the amantadine/rimantadine
analogue, 2-methyl-2-aminoadamantane, led to activity in vitro against
two M2 S31N viruses A/Calif/07/2009 (H1N1) and A/PR/8/34 (H1N1) but
not to a third A/WS/33 (H1N1). Solid state NMR of the transmembrane
domain (TMD) with a site mutation corresponding to S31N shows evidence
of drug binding. But electrophysiology using the full length S31N
M2 protein in HEK cells showed no blockade. A wild type strain, A/Hong
Kong/1/68 (H3N2) developed resistance to representative drugs within
one passage with mutations in M2 TMD, but A/Calif/07/2009 S31N was
slow (>8 passages) to develop resistance in vitro, and the resistant
virus had no mutations in M2 TMD. The results indicate that 2-alkyl-2-aminoadamantane
derivatives with sufficient adducts can persistently block p2009 influenza
A in vitro through an alternative mechanism. The observations of an
HA1 mutation, N160D, near the sialic acid binding site in both 6-resistant A/Calif/07/2009(H1N1) and the broadly resistant
A/WS/33(H1N1) and of an HA1 mutation, I325S, in the 6-resistant virus at a cell-culture stable site suggest that the drugs
tested here may block infection by direct binding near these critical
sites for virus entry to the host cell.

Abstract
Parvoviruses are serious pathogens but also serve as platforms for gene therapy or for using their lytic activity in experimental cancer treatment. Despite of their growing importance during the last decade little is known on how the viral genome is transported into the nucleus of the infected cell, which is crucial for replication. As nucleic acids are not karyophilic per se nuclear import must be driven by proteins attached to the viral genome. In turn, presence and conformation of these proteins depend upon the entry pathway of the virus into the cell. This review focuses on the trafficking of the parvoviral genome from the cellular periphery to nucleus. Despite of the uncertainties in knowledge about the entry pathway we show that parvoviruses developed a unique strategy to pass the nuclear envelope by hijacking enzymes involved in mitosis.

Abstract
Understanding adeno-associated virus (AAV) trafficking is critical to advance our knowledge of AAV biology and exploit novel aspects of vector development. Similar to the case for most DNA viruses, after receptor binding and entry, AAV traverses the cytoplasm and deposits the viral genome in the cell nucleus. In this study, we examined the role of the microtubule (MT) network in productive AAV infection. Using pharmacological reagents (e.g., nocodazole), live-cell imaging, and flow cytometry analysis, we demonstrated that AAV type 2 (AAV2) transduction was reduced by at least 2-fold in the absence of the MT network. Cell surface attachment and viral internalization were not dependent on an intact MT network. In treated cells at 2 h postinfection, quantitative three-dimensional (3D) microscopy determined a reproducible difference in number of intracellular particles associated with the nuclear membrane or the nucleus compared to that for controls (6 to 7% versus 26 to 30%, respectively). Confocal microscopy analysis demonstrated a direct association of virions with MTs, further supporting a critical role in AAV infection. To investigate the underling mechanisms, we employed single-particle tracking (SPT) to monitor the viral movement in real time. Surprisingly, unlike other DNA viruses (e.g., adenovirus [Ad] and herpes simplex virus [HSV]) that display bidirectional motion on MTs, AAV2 displays only unidirectional movement on MTs toward the nuclei, with peak instantaneous velocities at 1.5 to 3.5 μm/s. This rapid and unidirectional motion on MTs lasts for about 5 to 10 s and results in AAV particles migrating more than 10 μm in the cytoplasm reaching the nucleus very efficiently. Furthermore, electron microscopy analysis determined that, unlike Ad and HSV, AAV2 particles were transported on MTs within membranous compartments, and surprisingly, the acidification of AAV2-containing endosomes was delayed by the disruption of MTs. These findings together suggest an as-yet-undescribed model in which after internalization, AAV2 exploits MTs for rapid cytoplasmic trafficking in endosomal compartments unidirectionally toward the perinuclear region, where most acidification events for viral escape take place.

Abstract
The early steps of human parvovirus B19 (B19V) infection were investigated in UT7/Epo cells. B19V and its receptor globoside (Gb4Cer) associate with lipid rafts, predominantly of the noncaveolar type. Pharmacological disruption of the lipid rafts inhibited infection when the drug was added prior to virus attachment but not after virus uptake. B19V is internalized by clathrin-dependent endocytosis and spreads rapidly throughout the endocytic pathway, reaching the lysosomal compartment within minutes, where a substantial proportion is degraded. B19V did not permeabilize the endocytic vesicles, indicating a mechanism of endosomal escape without apparent membrane damage. Bafilomycin A(1) (BafA1) and NH(4)Cl, which raise endosomal pH, blocked the infection by preventing endosomal escape, resulting in a massive accumulation of capsids in the lysosomes. In contrast, in the presence of chloroquine (CQ), the transfer of incoming viruses from late endosomes to lysosomes was prevented; the viral DNA was not degraded; and the infection was boosted. In contrast to the findings for untreated or BafA1-treated cells, the viral DNA was progressively associated with the nucleus in CQ-treated cells, reaching a plateau by 3 h postinternalization, a time coinciding with the initiation of viral transcription. At this time, more than half of the total intracellular viral DNA was associated with the nucleus; however, the capsids remained extranuclear. Our studies provide the first insight into the early steps of B19V infection and reveal mechanisms involved in virus uptake, endocytic trafficking, and nuclear penetration.
