    Abstract Viral infection often trigger an ATM serine/threonine kinase (ATM)-dependent DNA damage response in host cells that suppresses viral replication. Viruses evolved different strategies to counteract this antiviral surveillance system. Here, we report that human herpesvirus 6B (HHV-6B) infection causes genomic instability by suppressing ATM signaling in host cells. Expression of immediate-early protein 1 (IE1) phenocopies this phenotype and blocks homology-directed double-strand break repair. Mechanistically, IE1 interacts with NBS1, and inhibits ATM signaling through two distinct domains. HHV-6B seems to efficiently inhibit ATM signaling as further depletion of either NBS1 or ATM do not significantly boost viral replication in infected cells. Interestingly, viral integration of HHV-6B into the host's telomeres is not strictly dependent on NBS1, challenging current models where integration occurs through homology-directed repair. Given that spontaneous IE1 expression has been detected in cells of subjects with inherited chromosomally-integrated form of HHV-6B (iciHHV-6B), a condition associated with several health conditions, our results raise the possibility of a link between genomic instability and the development of iciHHV-6-associated diseases.

    Abstract Liver myofibroblasts are specialized effector cells that drive hepatic fibrosis, a hallmark process of chronic liver diseases, leading to progressive scar formation and organ failure. Liver myofibroblasts are increasingly recognized as heterogeneous with regards to their origin, phenotype, and functions. For instance, liver myofibroblasts express cell markers that are universally represented such as, ItgαV and Pdgfrβ, or restricted to a given subpopulation such as, Lrat exclusively expressed in hepatic stellate cells, and Gpm6a in mesothelial cells. To study liver myofibroblasts in vitro, we have previously generated and characterized a SV40-immortalized polyclonal rat activated portal fibroblast cell line called RGF-N2 expressing multiple mesothelin mRNA transcripts. Mesothelin, a cell-surface molecule expressed in normal mesothelial cells and overexpressed in several cancers such as, mesothelioma and cholangiocarcinoma, was recently identified as a key regulator of portal myofibroblast proliferation, and fibrosis progression in the setting of chronic cholestatic liver disease. Here, we identify novel mesothelin splice variants expressed in rat activated portal fibroblasts. RGF-N2 portal fibroblast cDNA was used as template for insertion of hemagglutinin tag consensus sequence into the complete open reading frame of rat mesothelin variant coding sequences by extension PCR. Purified amplicons were subsequently cloned into an expression vector for in vitro translation and transfection in monkey COS7 fibroblasts, before characterization of fusion proteins by immunoblot and immunofluorescence. We show that rat activated portal fibroblasts, hepatic stellate cells, and cholangiocarcinoma cells express wild-type mesothelin and additional splice variants, while mouse activated hepatic stellate cells appear to only express wild-type mesothelin. Notably, rat mesothelin splice variants differ from the wild-type isoform by their protein properties and cellular distribution in transfected COS7 fibroblasts. We conclude that mesothelin is a marker of activated murine liver myofibroblasts. Mesothelin gene expression and regulation may be critical in liver myofibroblasts functions and fibrosis progression.

    Abstract We have generated polyclonal and monoclonal antibodies by genetic immunization over the last two decades. In this paper, we present our most successful methodology acquired over these years and present the animals in which we obtained the highest rates of success. The technique presented is convenient, easy, affordable, and generates antibodies against mammalian proteins in their native form. This protocol requires neither expensive equipment, such as a gene gun, nor sophisticated techniques such as the conjugation of gold microspheres, electroporation, or surgery to inject in lymph nodes. The protocol presented uses simply the purified plasmid expressing the protein of interest under a strong promoter, which is injected at intramuscular and intradermal sites. This technique was tested in five species. Guinea pigs were the animals of choice for the production of polyclonal antibodies. Monoclonal antibodies could be generated in mice by giving, as a last injection, a suspension of transfected cells. The antibodies detected their antigens in their native forms. They were highly specific with very low non-specific background levels, as assessed by immune-blots, immunocytochemistry, immunohistochemistry and flow cytometry. We present herein a detailed and simple procedure to successfully raise specific antibodies against native proteins.

    Abstract Hepatic fibrosis represents a pathological wound healing and tissue repair process triggered in response to chronic liver injury. A heterogeneous population of activated non-parenchymal liver cells, known as liver myofibroblasts, functions as the effector cells in hepatic fibrosis. Upon activation, liver myofibroblasts become fibrogenic, acquiring contractile properties and increasing collagen production capacity, while developing enhanced sensitivity to endogenous molecules and factors released in the local microenvironment. Hepatic extracellular adenosine is a bioactive small molecule, increasingly recognized as an important regulator of liver myofibroblast functions, and an important mediator in the pathogenesis of liver fibrosis overall. Remarkably, ecto-5'-nucleotidase/Nt5e/Cd73 enzyme, which accounts for the dominant adenosine-generating activity in the extracellular medium, is expressed by activated liver myofibroblasts. However, the molecular signals regulating Nt5e gene expression in liver myofibroblasts remain poorly understood. Here, we show that activated mouse liver myofibroblasts express Nt5e gene products and characterize the putative Nt5e minimal promoter in the mouse species. We describe the existence of an enhancer sequence upstream of the mouse Nt5e minimal promoter and establish that the mouse Nt5e minimal promoter transcriptional activity is negatively regulated by an Elf2-like Ets-related transcription factor in activated mouse liver myofibroblasts.

    Abstract Interstrand DNA cross-links (ICLs) represent complex lesions that compromise genomic stability. Several pathways have been involved in ICL repair, but the extent of factors involved in the resolution of ICL-induced DNA double-strand breaks (DSBs) remains poorly defined. Using CRISPR-based genomics, we identified FIGNL1 interacting regulator of recombination and mitosis (FIRRM) as a sensitizer of the ICL-inducing agent mafosfamide. Mechanistically, we showed that FIRRM, like its interactor Fidgetin like 1 (FIGNL1), contributes to the resolution of RAD51 foci at ICL-induced DSBs. While the stability of FIGNL1 and FIRRM is interdependent, expression of a mutant of FIRRM (∆WCF), which stabilizes the protein in the absence of FIGNL1, allows the resolution of RAD51 foci and cell survival, suggesting that FIRRM has FIGNL1-independent function during DNA repair. In line with this model, FIRRM binds preferentially single-stranded DNA in vitro, raising the possibility that it directly contributes to RAD51 disassembly by interacting with DNA. Together, our findings establish FIRRM as a promoting factor of ICL repair.

    Abstract High-risk human papillomaviruses (HR-HPVs) promote cervical cancer as well as a subset of anogenital and head and neck cancers. Due to their limited coding capacity, HPVs hijack the host cell's DNA replication and repair machineries to replicate their own genomes. How this host-pathogen interaction contributes to genomic instability is unknown. Here, we report that HPV-infected cancer cells express high levels of RNF168, an E3 ubiquitin ligase that is critical for proper DNA repair following DNA double-strand breaks, and accumulate high numbers of 53BP1 nuclear bodies, a marker of genomic instability induced by replication stress. We describe a mechanism by which HPV E7 subverts the function of RNF168 at DNA double-strand breaks, providing a rationale for increased homology-directed recombination in E6/E7-expressing cervical cancer cells. By targeting a new regulatory domain of RNF168, E7 binds directly to the E3 ligase without affecting its enzymatic activity. As RNF168 knockdown impairs viral genome amplification in differentiated keratinocytes, we propose that E7 hijacks the E3 ligase to promote the viral replicative cycle. This study reveals a mechanism by which tumor viruses reshape the cellular response to DNA damage by manipulating RNF168-dependent ubiquitin signaling. Importantly, our findings reveal a pathway by which HPV may promote the genomic instability that drives oncogenesis.

    Abstract Hepatic stellate cells (HSC) are critical effector cells of liver fibrosis. In the injured liver, HSC differentiate into a myofibrobastic phenotype. A critical feature distinguishing myofibroblastic from quiescent HSC is cytoskeletal reorganization. Soluble NSF attachment receptor (SNARE) proteins are important in trafficking of newly synthesized proteins to the plasma membrane for release into the extracellular environment. The goals of this project were to determine the expression of specific SNARE proteins in myofibroblastic HSC and to test whether their alteration changed the HSC phenotype in vitro and progression of liver fibrosis in vivo. We found that HSC lack the t-SNARE protein, SNAP-25, but express a homologous protein, SNAP-23. Downregulation of SNAP-23 in HSC induced reduction in polymerization and disorganization of the actin cytoskeleton associated with loss of cell movement. In contrast, reduction in SNAP-23 in mice by monogenic deletion delayed but did not prevent progression of liver fibrosis to cirrhosis. Taken together, these findings suggest that SNAP-23 is an important regular of actin dynamics in myofibroblastic HSC, but that the role of SNAP-23 in the progression of liver fibrosis in vivo is unclear.
