[PMID: 38616229 DOI: 10.1007/s00203-024-03954-0] [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: 03/01/2024] [Revised: 03/27/2024] [Accepted: 04/02/2024] [Indexed: 04/16/2024]
Abstract
A complex interaction among virulence factors, host-genes and host immune system is considered to be responsible for dengue virus (DENV) infection and disease progression. Generation of auto-antibodies during DENV infection is a major phenomenon that plays a role in the pathophysiology of dengue hemorrhagic fever and dengue shock syndrome. Hemostasis, thrombocytopenia, hepatic endothelial dysfunction, and autoimmune blistering skin disease (pemphigus) are different clinical manifestations of dengue pathogenesis; produced due to the molecular mimicry of DENV proteins with self-antigens like coagulation factors, platelets and endothelial cell proteins. This review elaborately describes the current advancements in auto-antibody-mediated immunopathogenesis which inhibits coagulation cascade and promotes hyperfibrinolysis. Auto-antibodies like anti-endothelial cell antibodies-mediated hepatic inflammation during severe DENV infection have also been discussed. Overall, this comprehensive review provides insight to target auto-antibodies that may act as potential biomarkers for disease severity, and a ground for the development of therapeutic strategy against DENV.

Abstract
Dengue hemorrhagic fever (DHF) is a severe form of dengue virus (DENV) infection that can lead to abnormal immune responses, endothelial vascular dysfunction, and hemorrhage pathogenesis. The virion-associated envelope protein domain III (EIII) is thought to play a role in the virulence of DENV by damaging endothelial cells. However, it is unclear whether EIII-coated nanoparticles simulating DENV virus particles could cause a more severe pathogenesis than soluble EIII alone. This study aimed to investigate whether EIII-coated silica nanoparticles (EIII-SNPs) could elicit greater cytotoxicity in endothelial cells and hemorrhage pathogenesis in mice compared to EIII or silica nanoparticles alone. The main methods included in vitro assays to assess cytotoxicity and in vivo experiments to examine hemorrhage pathogenesis in mice. EIII-SNPs induced greater endothelial cytotoxicity in vitro than EIII or silica nanoparticles alone. Two-hit combined treatment with EIII-SNPs and antiplatelet antibodies to simulate DHF hemorrhage pathogenesis during secondary DENV infections resulted in higher endothelial cytotoxicity than either treatment alone. In mouse experiments, two-hit combined treatment with EIII-SNPs and antiplatelet antibodies resulted in more severe hemorrhage pathogenesis compared to single treatments of EIII, EIII-SNPs, or antiplatelet antibodies alone. These findings suggest that EIII-coated nanoparticles are more cytotoxic than soluble EIII and could be used to develop a tentative dengue two-hit hemorrhage pathogenesis model in mice. Additionally, our results indicated that EIII-containing DENV particles could potentially exacerbate hemorrhage pathogenesis in DHF patients who have antiplatelet antibodies, highlighting the need for further research on the potential role of EIII in DHF pathogenesis.

Abstract
Severe SARS-CoV-2 infection is associated with strong inflammation and autoantibody production against diverse self-antigens, suggesting a system-wide defect in B cell tolerance. BND cells are a B cell subset in healthy individuals harboring autoreactive but anergic B lymphocytes. In vitro evidence suggests inflammatory stimuli can breach peripheral B cell tolerance in this subset. We asked whether SARS-CoV-2-associated inflammation impairs BND cell peripheral tolerance. To address this, PBMCs and plasma were collected from healthy controls, individuals immunized against SARS-CoV-2, or subjects with convalescent or severe SARS-CoV-2 infection. We demonstrate that BND cells from severely infected individuals are significantly activated, display reduced inhibitory receptor expression, and restored BCR signaling, indicative of a breach in anergy during viral infection, supported by increased levels of autoreactive antibodies. The phenotypic and functional BND cell alterations significantly correlate with increased inflammation in severe SARS-CoV-2 infection. Thus, autoreactive BND cells are released from peripheral tolerance with SARS-CoV-2 infection, likely as a consequence of robust systemic inflammation.

Abstract
Even after recovering from coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19), patients can experience prolonged complaints, referred to as "long COVID". Similar to reports in Caucasians, a follow-up study in Japan revealed that fatigue, dyspnea, cough, anosmia/dysgeusia, and dyssomnia are common symptoms. Although the precise mode of long COVID remains elusive, multiple etiologies such as direct organ damage by infection with severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus-2 (SARS-CoV-2), autoimmunity, prolonged inflammatory reactions, and psychiatric impairment seem to be involved. Notably, SARS-CoV-2 is neurotropic, and viral RNA and proteins are continuously detectable in multiple organs, including the brain. Viral proteins exert a number of different toxic effects on cells, suggesting that persistent infection is a key element for understanding long COVID. Here, we first reviewed the current status of long COVID in Japan, and then summarized literature that help us understand the molecular background of the symptoms. Finally, we discuss the feasibility of vaccination as a treatment for patients with long COVID.

Subsets of Cytokines and Chemokines from DENV-4-Infected Patients Could Regulate the Endothelial Integrity of Cultured Microvascular Endothelial Cells. Pathogens 2022; 11:pathogens11050509.

Abstract
Introduction: It is a consensus that inflammatory mediators produced by immune cells contribute to changes in endothelial permeability in dengue. We propose to relate inflammatory mediators seen in dengue patients with the in vitro alteration of endothelial cells (ECs) cultured with serum from these patients. Methods: Patients with mild (DF) to moderate and severe dengue (DFWS/Sev) were selected. ELISA quantified inflammatory mediators. Expression of adhesion molecules and CD147 were evaluated in the ECs cultured with the patient’s serum by flow cytometry. We assessed endothelial permeability by measuring transendothelial electrical resistance in cocultures of ECs with patient serum. Results: Dengue infection led to an increase in inflammatory mediators—the IL-10 distinguished DF from DFWS/Sev. There were no changes in CD31, CD54, and CD106 but decreased CD147 expression in ECs. DFWS/Sev sera induced a greater difference in endothelial permeability than DF sera. Correlation statistical test indicated that low IL-10 and IFN-γ and high CCL5 maintain the integrity of ECs in DF patients. In contrast, increased TNF, IFN-γ, CXCL8, and CCL2 maintain EC integrity in DFWS/Sev patients. Conclusions: Our preliminary data suggest that a subset of inflammatory mediators may be related to the maintenance or loss of endothelial integrity, reflecting the clinical prognosis.

Abstract
Dengue viral infection (DVI) is one of the world’s most significant viral infections spreading. Most of the patients have been asymptomatic, with relatively benign clinical manifestations and outcomes. However, a small number of patients have progressed to severe dengue diseases, including hemorrhage, multi-organ impairment, and increased vascular leakage causing hypovolemic shock, which can cause cardiovascular collapse and death. Numerous lines of evidence have demonstrated that DVI could also cause cardiac dysfunction, arrhythmias, and severe myocarditis. The treatment for dengue hemorrhagic fever (DHF) patients remains symptomatic and supportive, with close monitoring of hemodynamic status. The contributory role of cardiac dysfunction in DHF patients has potentially critical implications on the management. This review will address the current knowledge of cardiac involvement in DHF patients and the management strategy to reduce the fatality outcome.

Science 2021; 372:1102-1105.

Abstract
Although antiviral antibodies generally confer protective functions, antibodies against dengue virus (DENV) are associated with enhanced disease susceptibility. Antibodies can mediate DENV infection of leukocytes via Fcγ receptors, likely contributing to dengue disease pathogenesis. To determine if this mechanism accounts for variable disease severity, we examined Fab and Fc structures of anti-DENV antibodies from patients before and after infection and with variable disease outcomes. Neither antibody titers nor neutralizing activity correlated with disease severity in DENV-infected populations. Rather, DENV infection induced a specific increase in immunoglobulin G1 (IgG1) afucosylation, and the levels of afucosylated IgG1 were predictive of dengue disease severity. Thus, the IgG1 fucosylation status represents a robust prognostic tool for dengue disease, highlighting the key role of the Fc glycan structure in dengue pathogenesis.
