The Journal of Immunology RIG-I/MDA5/MAVS Are Required To Signal a Protective IFN Response in Rotavirus-Infected Intestinal Epithelium Alexis H. Broquet,* Yoshihiro Hirata,* Christopher S. McAllister,* and Martin F. Kagnoff*,† Rotavirus is a dsRNAvirus that infects epithelial cells that line the surface of the small intestine. It causes severe diarrheal illness in children and ∼500,000 deaths per year worldwide. We studied the mechanisms by which intestinal epithelial cells (IECs) sense rotavirus infection and signal IFN-b production, and investigated the importance of IFN-b production by IECs for controlling rotavirus production by intestinal epithelium and virus excretion in the feces. In contrast with most RNA viruses, which interact with either retinoic acid-inducible gene I (RIG-I) or melanoma differentiation-associated gene 5 (MDA5) inside cells, rotavirus was sensed by both RIG-I and MDA5, alone and in combination. Rotavirus did not signal IFN-b through either of the dsRNA sensors TLR3 or dsRNA-activated protein kinase (PKR). Silencing RIG-I or MDA5, or their common adaptor protein mitochon- Downloaded from drial antiviral signaling protein (MAVS), significantly decreased IFN-b production and increased rotavirus titers in infected IECs.

Rotavirus-infected mice lacking MAVS, but not those lacking TLR3, TRIF, or PKR, produced significantly less IFN-b and increased amounts of virus in the intestinal epithelium, and shed increased quantities of virus in the feces. We conclude that RIG-I or MDA5 signaling through MAVS is required for the activation of IFN-b production http://www.jimmunol.org/ by rotavirus-infected IECs and has a functionally important role in determining the magnitude of rotavirus replication in the intestinal epithelium.

Abstract: Viral infections lead to expeditious activation of the host’s innate immune responses, most importantly the interferon (IFN) response, which manifests a network of interferon-stimulated genes (ISGs) that constrain escalating virus replication by fashioning an ill-disposed environment. Interestingly, most viruses, including rotavirus, have evolved numerous strategies to evade or subvert host immune responses to establish successful infection. Several studies have documented the induction of ISGs during rotavirus infection. In this study, we evaluated the induction and antiviral potential of viperin, an ISG, during rotavirus infection. We observed that rotavirus infection, in a stain independent manner, resulted in progressive upregulation of viperin at increasing time points post-infection. Knockdown of viperin had no significant consequence on the production of total Citation: Sarkar, R.; Nandi, S.; Lo, infectious virus particles.

There are four genera: Mastadenovirus, Aviadenovirus, Atadenovirus and Siadenovirus. At present 51 antigenic types of human adenoviruses have been described. Human adenoviruses have been classified into six groups (A–F) on the basis of their physical, chemical and biological properties (WHO 2004). Reservoir Humans. Adenoviruses are ubiquitous in the environment where contamination by human faeces or sewage has occurred. Distribution Adenoviruses have worldwide distribution. Characteristics An important feature of the adenovirus is that it has a DNA rather than an RNA genome. Portions of this viral DNA persist in host cells after viral replication has stopped as either a circular extra chromosome or by integration into the host DNA (Hogg 2000). This persistence may be important in the pathogenesis of the known sequelae of adenoviral infection that include Swyer-James syndrome, permanent airways obstruction, bronchiectasis, bronchiolitis obliterans, and steroid-resistant asthma (Becroft 1971; Tan et al.

  • Protein-Mediated RNA Folding Governs Sequence-Specific Interactions Between Rotavirus Genome Segments
    RESEARCH ARTICLE Protein-mediated RNA folding governs sequence-specific interactions between rotavirus genome segments Alexander Borodavka1,2*, Eric C Dykeman3,4,5, Waldemar Schrimpf2, Don C Lamb2 1Astbury Centre for Structural Molecular Biology, School of Molecular and Cellular Biology, University of Leeds, Leeds, United Kingdom; 2Department of Chemistry, Center for NanoScience, Nanosystems Initiative Munich (NIM) and Center for Integrated Protein Science Munich (CiPSM), Ludwig-Maximilian University of Munich, Munich, Germany; 3York Centre for Complex Systems Analysis, University of York, York, United Kingdom; 4Department of Mathematics, University of York, York, United Kingdom; 5Department of Biology, University of York, York, United Kingdom Abstract Segmented RNA viruses are ubiquitous pathogens, which include influenza viruses and rotaviruses. A major challenge in understanding their assembly is the combinatorial problem of a non-random selection of a full genomic set of distinct RNAs. This process involves complex RNA- RNA and protein-RNA interactions, which are often obscured by non-specific binding at concentrations approaching in vivo assembly conditions. Here, we present direct experimental evidence of sequence-specific inter-segment interactions between rotavirus RNAs, taking place in a complex RNA- and protein-rich milieu. We show that binding of the rotavirus-encoded non- structural protein NSP2 to viral ssRNAs results in the remodeling of RNA, which is conducive to formation of stable inter-segment contacts. To identify the sites of these interactions, we have developed an RNA-RNA SELEX approach for mapping the sequences involved in inter-segment base-pairing. Our findings elucidate the molecular basis underlying inter-segment interactions in *For correspondence: rotaviruses, paving the way for delineating similar RNA-RNA interactions that govern assembly of [email protected] other segmented RNA viruses.

  • Defining Virus–Sialic Acid Interactions
    REVIEWS The sweet spot: defining virus–sialic acid interactions Jennifer E. Stencel-Baerenwald1,2*, Kerstin Reiss3,4*, Dirk M. Reiter3,5, Thilo Stehle3,6 and Terence S. Dermody1,2,6 Abstract | Viral infections are initiated by attachment of the virus to host cell surface receptors, including sialic acid-containing glycans. It is now possible to rapidly identify specific glycan receptors using glycan array screening, to define atomic-level structures of virus–glycan complexes and to alter the glycan-binding site to determine the function of glycan engagement in viral disease. This Review highlights general principles of virus–glycan interactions and provides specific examples of sialic acid binding by viruses with stalk-like attachment proteins, including influenza virus, reovirus, adenovirus and rotavirus. Understanding virus–glycan interactions is essential to combating viral infections and designing improved viral vectors for therapeutic applications.

Ann Agric Environ Med. 2016; 23(4): 576–580. doi: 10.5604/12321966.1226849 Abstract Viral gastroenteritis and other water-borne diseases are the most neglected areas of research in Pakistan. To determine the quality of water, 4 enteric viruses were studied from different localities of Peshawar, Pakistan. The study validates the viral detection method for Rotavirus (RV), Human adenovirus (HAdV), Enterovirus (EV) and Hepatitis A virus (HAV), directly from water sources of rural areas of Peshawar, KPK, Pakistan. Overall, 95 five water samples were tested; among them, 9.47% were positive for RV, 38.94% for HAdV, 48.42% for EV and 12.63% for HAV. The presence of these viruses in water was directly correlated with meteorological data.
