    Abstract Dendritic cells (DCs) are of pivotal importance for the initiation of immune responses to control and eliminate viral infections. The molecular mechanisms of hepatitis C virus (HCV) antigen uptake and processing by blood DCs are poorly defined. Here we show that human blood DC subsets acquire HCV independent of the classical HCV entry factors. Following HCV uptake, human plasmacytoid and myeloid DC subsets deliver HCV antigen into distinct endocytotic compartments, which are dedicated to presentation to CD4(+) or CD8(+) T cells. Our findings support a model of HCV antigen processing and presentation in which DC subsets fulfill distinct functions.

    Abstract Background and aims: Chronic hepatitis C virus (HCV) infection is a major cause of liver disease worldwide. Although direct-acting antivirals can cure the large majority of treated patients, important limitations remain, including treatment failure and high costs precluding access to therapy in resource-limited settings. We report herein the anti-HCV effects of IND02, a procyanidin type A molecule, isolated and characterized from cinnamon.
    Methods and results: Using cellculture-derived HCV (HCVcc), HCV pseudoparticles (HCVpp), and subgenomic replicons, we demonstrated that IND02 markedly and dose-dependently inhibited HCV cell entry. Kinetic assays demonstrated that IND02 inhibits HCV entry most likely at a postbinding step. Experiments performed using primary human hepatocytes confirmed inhibition of HCV entry by IND02, demonstrating the functional impact in the most physiological cell-based system for studying HCV-host interactions.
    Conclusions: The natural compound IND02 exhibits potent HCV cell entry inhibition and provides a novel perspective for development of a low-cost antiviral for treatment of HCV infection.

    Abstract In patients with hepatitis C virus (HCV) infection, enhanced activity of indoleamine-2,3-dioxygenase 1 (IDO) has been reported. IDO - a tryptophan-catabolizing enzyme - has been considered as both an innate defence mechanism and an important regulator of the immune response. The molecular mechanism of IDO induction in HCV infection and its role in the antiviral immune response remain unknown. Using primary human hepatocytes, we show that HCV infection stimulates IDO expression. IDO gene induction was transient and coincided with the expression of types I and III interferons (IFNs) and IFN-stimulated genes in HCV-infected hepatocytes. Overexpression of hepatic IDO prior to HCV infection markedly impaired HCV replication in hepatocytes, suggesting that IDO limits the spread of HCV within the liver. siRNA-mediated IDO knock-down revealed that IDO functions as an IFN-mediated anti-HCV effector. Hepatic IDO was most potently induced by IFN-x03B3;, and ongoing HCV replication could significantly upregulate IDO expression. IRF1 (IFN-regulatory factor 1) and STAT1 (signal transducer and activator of transcription 1) regulated hepatic IDO expression. Hepatic IDO expression also had a significant inhibitory effect on CD4+ T-cell proliferation. Our data suggest that hepatic IDO plays a dual role during HCV infection by slowing down viral replication and also regulating host immune responses.

    Abstract Persistent infections with HIV, hepatitis B virus and hepatitis C virus are major causes of morbidity and mortality worldwide. As sentinels of the immune system, dendritic cells (DCs) are crucial for the generation of protective antiviral immunity. Recent advances in our understanding of the role of DCs during infection with these viruses provide insights into the mechanisms used by these viruses to exploit DC function and evade innate and adaptive immunity. In this Review we highlight the current knowledge about the interaction between DCs and these viruses and the underlying mechanisms that might influence the outcome of viral infections.

    Abstract It is estimated that 4-5 million HIV-infected patients are coinfected with HCV. The impact of HIV on the natural course of HCV infection is deleterious. This includes a higher rate of HCV persistence and a faster rate of fibrosis progression. Coinfected patients show poor treatment outcome following standard HCV therapy. Although direct antiviral agents offer new therapeutic options, their use is hindered by potential drug interactions and toxicity in HIV-infected patients under HAART. Overtime, a large reservoir of HCV genotype 1 patients will accumulate in resource poor countries where the hepatitis C treatment is not easily affordable and HIV therapy remains the primary health issue for coinfected individuals. HCV vaccines represent a promising strategy as an adjunct or alternative to current HCV therapy. Here, the authors review the pathogenesis of hepatitis C in HIV-infected patients, with a focus on the impact of HIV on HCV-specific immune responses and discuss the challenges for vaccine development in HIV-HCV coinfection.

    Abstract Unlabelled: Human immunodeficiency virus type 1 (HIV-1) replication in dendritic cells (DCs) is restricted by SAMHD1. This factor is counteracted by the viral protein Vpx; Vpx is found in HIV-2 and simian immunodeficiency virus (SIV) from sooty mangabeys (SIVsm) or from macaques (SIVmac) but is absent from HIV-1. We previously observed that HIV-1 replication in immature DCs is stimulated by cocultivation with primary T and B lymphocytes, suggesting that HIV-1 restriction in DCs may be overcome under coculture conditions. Here, we aimed to decipher the mechanism of SAMHD1-mediated restriction in DC-lymphocyte coculture. We found that coculture with lymphocytes downregulated SAMHD1 expression and was associated with increased HIV-1 replication in DCs. Moreover, in infected DC-T lymphocyte cocultures, DCs acquired maturation status and secreted type 1 interferon (alpha interferon [IFN-α]). The blockade of DC-lymphocyte cross talk by anti-ICAM-1 antibody markedly inhibited the stimulation of HIV-1 replication and prevented the downregulation of SAMHD1 expression in cocultured DCs. These results demonstrate that, in contrast to purified DCs, cross talk with lymphocytes downregulates SAMHD1 expression in DCs, triggering HIV-1 replication and an antiviral immune response. Therefore, HIV-1 replication and immune sensing by DCs should be investigated in more physiologically relevant models of DC/lymphocyte coculture.
    Importance: SAMHD1 restricts HIV-1 replication in dendritic cells (DCs). Here, we demonstrate that, in a coculture model of DCs and lymphocytes mimicking early mucosal HIV-1 infection, stimulation of HIV-1 replication in DCs is associated with downregulation of SAMHD1 expression and activation of innate immune sensing by DCs. We propose that DC-lymphocyte cross talk occurring in vivo modulates host restriction factor SAMHD1, promoting HIV-1 replication in cellular reservoirs and stimulating immune sensing.

    Abstract Objective: The chronology of HIV infection in mucosal tissue after sexual transmission is unknown. Several potential HIV target cells are present at these sites, including dendritic cells, macrophages, and CD4(+) T lymphocytes. Dendritic cells and macrophages are antigen-presenting cells (APCs) and are thus involved in cross-talk with T cells. This close contact may favor efficient HIV-1 transfer to T lymphocytes, resulting in rapid HIV-1 dissemination.
    Design: We investigated the role of APCs in HIV transfer to T cells by incubating Langerhans cells and interstitial dendritic cells (IDCs) or monocyte-derived macrophages (MDMs) with HIV for 2 h before addition of uninfected autologous CD4(+) T lymphocytes.
    Methods: HIV infection was recorded after different time points. Following staining, the measurement of intracellular p24 in the different cell populations was analyzed by flow cytometry.
    Results: We showed that Langerhans cells/IDCs and macrophages efficiently transferred HIV to CD4(+) T cells. Interestingly, a rapid HIV transfer in trans predominated in MDMs, whereas cis transfer mainly occurred in Langerhans cells/IDC cocultures. Neutralizing antibody 2G12, added to HIV-loaded APCs, efficiently blocked both the trans and the cis infection of T cells.
    Conclusion: These findings highlight the major contributions of various mucosal cells in HIV dissemination and suggest that HIV hijacks the different properties of APCs to favor its dissemination through the body. They emphasize the role of macrophages in the rapid transmission of HIV to T lymphocytes at mucosal sites, dendritic cells being prone to migration to lymphoid organ for subsequent dissemination by cis transfer.

    Abstract Type-IV-pilus-mediated adhesion of Neisseria meningitidis (also known as meningococcus) to human endothelial cells induces the formation of membrane protrusions leading to bacterial uptake. We have previously shown that these protrusions result from a Rho- and Cdc42-dependent cortical actin polymerization, and from the activation of the ErbB2 tyrosine-kinase receptor and the Src kinase, leading to tyrosine phosphorylation of cortactin. We report here that N. meningitidis mutants expressing a deglycosylated lipo-oligosaccharide are poorly invasive. These mutants show structurally altered actin polymerization. Moreover, although they efficiently recruit and activate ErbB2 and Src, these mutants are defective in the recruitment and phosphorylation of cortactin. We demonstrate that phosphorylated cortactin controls the cortical actin polymerization, which leads to membrane protrusion formation. In addition, we show that cortactin recruitment is dependent on the activation of a phosphoinositide-3-kinase/Rac1-GTPase signalling pathway, which is required for actin polymerization and internalization of N. meningitidis, and is not activated by the mutant strains. Altogether, these results define a new role for the lipo-oligosaccharide in triggering a phosphoinositide-3-kinase/Rac1 signalling required to elicit an efficient uptake of N. meningitidis in non-phagocytic cells.

    Abstract Dendritic cells (DCs) support only low levels of HIV-1 replication, but have been shown to transfer infectious viral particles highly efficiently to neighboring permissive CD4 T lymphocytes. This mode of cell-to-cell HIV-1 spread may be a predominant mode of infection and dissemination. In the present study, we analyzed the kinetics of fusion, replication, and the ability of HIV-1-specific Abs to inhibit HIV-1 transfer from immature DCs to autologous CD4 T lymphocytes. We found that neutralizing mAbs prevented HIV-1 transfer to CD4 T lymphocytes in trans and in cis, whereas nonneutralizing Abs did not. Neutralizing Abs also significantly decreased HIV-1 replication in DCs, even when added 2 hours after HIV-1 infection. Interestingly, a similar inhibition of HIV-1 replication in DCs was detected with some nonneutralizing Abs and was correlated with DC maturation. We suggest that the binding of HIV-1-specific Abs to FcγRs leads to HIV-1 inhibition in DCs by triggering DC maturation. This efficient inhibition of HIV-1 transfer by Abs highlights the importance of inducing HIV-specific Abs by vaccination directly at the mucosal portal of HIV-1 entry to prevent early dissemination after sexual transmission.
