    Abstract With no available therapies, infections with Zika virus (ZIKV) constitute a major public health concern as they can lead to congenital microcephaly. In order to generate an intracellular environment favourable to viral replication, ZIKV induces endomembrane remodelling and the morphogenesis of replication factories via enigmatic mechanisms. In this study, we identified the AAA+ type ATPase valosin-containing protein (VCP) as a cellular interaction partner of ZIKV non-structural protein 4B (NS4B). Importantly, its pharmacological inhibition as well as the expression of a VCP dominant-negative mutant impaired ZIKV replication. In infected cells, VCP is relocalised to large ultrastructures containing both NS4B and NS3, which are reminiscent of dengue virus convoluted membranes. Moreover, short treatment with the VCP inhibitors NMS-873 or CB-5083 drastically decreased the abundance and size of ZIKV-induced convoluted membranes. Furthermore, NMS-873 treatment inhibited ZIKV-induced mitochondria elongation previously reported to be physically and functionally linked to convoluted membranes in case of the closely related dengue virus. Finally, VCP inhibition resulted in enhanced apoptosis of ZIKV-infected cells strongly suggesting that convoluted membranes limit virus-induced cytopathic effects. Altogether, this study identifies VCP as a host factor required for ZIKV life cycle and more precisely, for the maintenance of viral replication factories. Our data further support a model in which convoluted membranes regulate ZIKV life cycle by impacting on mitochondrial functions and ZIKV-induced death signals in order to create a cytoplasmic environment favourable to viral replication.

    Abstract Human genetics research has had a great impact on the genesis of the inflammasome field and the treatment of certain inflammasomopathies. The identification of mutations causing rare autoinflammatory syndromes, reproductive wastage disorders and of single nucleotide polymorphisms influencing susceptibility to complex diseases such as vitiligo, sepsis, and Crohn's disease has not only led to the characterization of novel proteins involved in NOD-like receptor-coupled inflammatory signaling pathways but also to greater insights into pathogenic mechanisms.

    Title translation Hepatitis C virus subverts pattern recognition receptors-mediated control of adaptative immunity orchestrated by dendritic cells.
    Abstract Chronic hepatitis C virus (HCV) is a liver-borne infectious disease that remains a major global health threat. The mechanisms whereby HCV evades the host's immune defences and establishes persistent infection remain elusive; but they likely require a complex and coordinated interruption of the interplay between innate and adaptive immune actors. This review discusses the concept that HCV evades the host's immune response to its components partly because of its ability to inactivate the major orchestrator of the adaptive immune response - the DCs. It argues that DCs constitute an immunologically relevant cellular viral host actively targeted by HCV. This targeting disrupts TRIF- and IPS-1-dependent but not MyD88-coupled pathogen recognition receptors (PRR) sensing pathways in these infected cells to foil the networks by which innate immunity to HCV is translated into virus-specific adaptive immune-mediated host resistance. Thus, as a culprit, this cell-specific and numerically restrained DC defect offers a promising field of investigation in which to study and understand the HCV-restricted nature of the deficit in cellular immunity in persistently infected -individuals who have otherwise normal immune functions to unrelated pathogens. In this model, protective immunity is contingent on proper processing and delivery of danger signals by DCs presenting HCV antigens.

    Abstract Although studies have addressed the exhaustion of the host's immune response to HCV and its role in treatment, there is little information about the possible contribution of innate immunity to treatment-induced clearance. We hypothesized that because intact myeloid dendritic cell (MDC) pathogen sensing functions are associated with improved HCV-specific CD8+ T cell functionality in some chronically infected patients, it might enhance HCV clearance rate under standard interferon therapy. To investigate this hypothesis, TLR-induced MDC activation and HCV-specific CD8+ T cell response quality were monitored longitudinally at the single-cell level using polychromatic flow cytometry in chronically infected patients undergoing interferon therapy. We correlated the immunological, biochemical and virological data with response to treatment. We demonstrate that the clinical efficacy of interferon-induced viral clearance is influenced by the extent to which HCV inhibits MDC functions before treatment, rather than solely on a breakdown of the extrinsic T cell immunosuppressive environment. Thus, viral inhibition of MDC functions before treatment emerges as a co-determining factor in the clinical efficacy of interferon therapy during chronic HCV infection.

    Abstract Activation of the inflammasome pathway is crucial for effective intracellular host defense. The mitochondrial network plays an important role in inflammasome regulation but the mechanisms linking mitochondrial homeostasis to attenuation of inflammasome activation are not fully understood. Here, we report that the Parkinson's disease-associated mitochondrial serine protease HtrA2 restricts the activation of ASC-dependent NLRP3 and AIM2 inflammasomes, in a protease activity-dependent manner. Consistently, disruption of the protease activity of HtrA2 results in exacerbated NLRP3 and AIM2 inflammasome responses in macrophages ex vivo and systemically in vivo. Mechanistically, we show that the HtrA2 protease activity regulates autophagy and controls the magnitude and duration of inflammasome signaling by preventing prolonged accumulation of the inflammasome adaptor ASC. Our findings identify HtrA2 as a non-redundant mitochondrial quality control effector that keeps NLRP3 and AIM2 inflammasomes in check.

    Abstract The crosstalk between inflammation and tumorigenesis is now clearly established. However, how inflammation is elicited in the metastatic environment and the corresponding contribution of innate immunity pathways in suppressing tumor growth at secondary sites are poorly understood. Here, we show that mice deficient in Nlrp3 inflammasome components had exacerbated liver colorectal cancer metastatic growth, which was mediated by impaired interleukin-18 (IL-18) signaling. Control of tumor growth was independent of differential cancer cell colonization or proliferation, intestinal microbiota effects, or tumoricidal activity by the adaptive immune system. Instead, the inflammasome-IL-18 pathway impacted maturation of hepatic NK cells, surface expression of the death ligand FasL, and capacity to kill FasL-sensitive tumors. Our results define a regulatory signaling circuit within the innate immune system linking inflammasome activation to effective NK-cell-mediated tumor attack required to suppress colorectal cancer growth in the liver.

    Abstract Cellular inhibitors of apoptosis proteins (cIAPs) are essential regulators of cell death and immunity. The corresponding contributions of IAPs to infectious disease outcomes are relatively unexplored. We find that mice deficient in cIAP2 exhibit increased susceptibility and mortality to influenza A virus infection. The lethality was not due to impaired antiviral immune functions, but rather because of death-receptor-induced programmed necrosis of airway epithelial cells that led to severe bronchiole epithelial degeneration, despite control of viral replication. Pharmacological inhibition of RIPK1 or genetic deletion of Ripk3, both kinases involved in programmed necrosis, rescued cIAP2-deficient mice from influenza-induced lethality. Genetic deletion of the death receptor agonists Fas ligand or TRAIL from the hematopoietic compartment also reversed the susceptibility of cIAP2-deficient mice. Thus, cIAP2-dependent antagonism of RIPK3-mediated programmed necrosis critically protects the host from influenza infection through maintenance of pulmonary tissue homeostasis rather than through pathogen control by the immune system.

    Abstract Although chronic viral infections have evolved mechanisms to interfere with aspects of pathogen recognition by dendritic cells (DCs), the role that these APCs play in virus-specific T cell exhaustion is unclear. Herein we report that NS3-dependent suppression of Toll/IL-1 domain-containing adapter-inducing IFN-beta- and IFN-beta promoter stimulator-1- but not MyD88-coupled pathogen-recognition receptor-induced synthesis of proinflammatory cytokines (IL-12 and TNF-alpha) from DCs by hepatitis C virus (HCV) is a distinctive feature of a subgroup of chronically infected patients. The result is decreased CD8(+) T cell polyfunctional capacities (production of IFN-gamma, IL-2, TNF-alpha, and CD107a mobilization) that is confined to HCV specificities and that relates to the extent to which HCV inhibits DC responses in infected subjects, despite comparable plasma viral load, helper T cell environments, and inhibitory programmed death 1 receptor/ligand signals. Thus, subjects in whom pathogen-recognition receptor signaling in DCs was intact exhibited enhanced polyfunctionality (i.e., IL-2-secretion and CD107a). In addition, differences between HCV-infected patients in the ability of CD8(+) T cells to activate multiple functions in response to HCV did not apply to CD8(+) T cells specific for other immune-controlled viruses (CMV, EBV, and influenza). Our findings identify reversible virus evasion of DC-mediated innate immunity as an additional important factor that impacts the severity of polyfunctional CD8(+) T cell exhaustion during a chronic viral infection.

    Abstract Background & aims: Molecular sensors recognize viral nucleic acids and initiate events that subsequently enable cells to control and clear infection. Hepatitis C Virus (HCV) can interfere with the innate host response and the NS3/4A protease was reported to specifically block antiviral signaling pathways, a finding that had yet to be studied in human primary hepatocytes.
    Methods: Freshly isolated human primary hepatocytes, transduced with a lentiviral vector expressing HCV NS3/4A were stimulated with extracellular and intracellular double-stranded RNA (dsRNA) and the innate immune antiviral genes were quantified by quantitative PCR and microarrays analysis.
    Results: We demonstrate that sensing receptors of human hepatocytes in primary cultures are stimulated following recognition of either mode of dsRNA delivery, inducing transcriptional up-regulation (over 100-fold) of multiple immune genes, either selectively or independently of recognition pathways. We also report that the intracellular dsRNA-activated innate response is severely compromised upon ectopic expression of the HCV NS3/4A protease gene in normal human primary hepatocytes, and completely restored by treatment with the NS3/4A protease specific inhibitor BILN2061.
    Conclusions: The present study indicates that NS3/4A has a wider protease-dependent effect on the intracellular Pathogen Recognition Receptor (PRR)-mediated immune response than on its extracellular counterpart, which underlies the major role of cytosolic dsRNA receptors in HCV recognition by primary human hepatocytes.
