Flavivirus induces interferon-beta gene expression through a pathway involving RIG-I-dependent IRF-3 and PI3K-dependent NF-kappaB activation

In this study, we found that infection with flaviviruses, such as Japanese encephalitis virus (JEV) and dengue virus serotype 2 (DEN-2), leads to interferon-beta (IFN-beta) gene expression in a virus-replication- and de novo protein-synthesis-dependent manner. NF-kappaB activation is essential for IFN-beta induction in JEV- and DEN-2-infected cells. However, these two viruses seem to preferentially target different members of the interferon regulatory factor (IRF) family. The activation of constitutively expressed IRF-3, characterized by slower gel mobility, dimer formation, and nuclear translocation, is more evident in JEV-infected cells. Other members of the IRF family, such as IRF-1 and IRF-7 are also induced by DEN-2, but not by JEV infection. The upstream molecules responsible for IRF-3 and NF-kappaB activation were further studied. Evidently, a cellular RNA helicase, retinoic acid-inducible gene I (RIG-I), and a cellular kinase, phosphatidylinositol-3 kinase (PI3K), are required for flavivirus-induced IRF-3 and NF-kappaB activation, respectively. Therefore, we suggest that JEV and DEN-2 initiate the host innate immune response through a molecular mechanism involving RIG-I/IRF-3 and PI3K/NF-kappaB signaling pathways.

Flavivirus activates phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase signaling to block caspase-dependent apoptotic cell death at the early stage of virus infection

Flaviviruses such as dengue virus (DEN) and Japanese encephalitis virus (JEV) are medically important in humans. The lipid kinase, phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase (PI3K) and its downstream target Akt have been implicated in the regulation of diverse cellular functions such as proliferation, and apoptosis. Since JEV and DEN appear to trigger apoptosis in cultured cells at a rather late stage of infection, we evaluated the possible roles of the PI3K/Akt signaling pathway in flavivirus-infected cells. We found that Akt phosphorylation was noticeable in the JEV- and DEN serotype 2 (DEN-2)-infected neuronal N18 cells in an early, transient, PI3K- and lipid raft-dependent manner. Blocking of PI3K activation by its specific inhibitor LY294002 or wortmannin greatly enhanced virus-induced cytopathic effects (CPEs), even at an early stage of infection, but had no effect on virus production. This severe CPE was characterized as apoptotic cell death as evidenced by TUNEL (terminal deoxynucleotidyltransferase-mediated dUTP-biotin nick end labeling) staining and cleavage of caspase-3 and poly(ADP-ribose) polymerase (PARP). Mechanically, the initiator and effector caspases involved are mainly caspase-9 and caspase-6, since only a pan-caspase inhibitor and the inhibitors preferentially target caspase-9 and -6, but not the ones antagonizing caspase-8, -3, or -7 alleviated the levels of PARP cleavage after virus infection and PI3K blockage. Furthermore, Bcl-2 appears to be a crucial mediator downstream of PI3K/Akt signaling, since overexpression of Bcl-2 reduced virus-induced apoptosis even when PI3K activation was repressed. Collectively, our results suggest an anti-apoptotic role for the PI3K/Akt pathway triggered by JEV and DEN-2 to protect infected cells from early apoptotic cell death.     

Comparison of different approaches for the incorporation of non-radioactive labels into polymerase chain reaction products

Different methods for labelling polymerase chain reaction (PCR) products with non-radioactive labels for their detection by hybridization with immobilized DNA probes were compared. The use of digoxigenin (DIG) as a label provided greater sensitivity than biotin in a PCR system targeting the invA gene from Salmonella typhimurium. Incorporation of digoxigenin into amplicons in the form of 5-DIG-labelled oligonucleotide primers resulted in better assay signals and was more economical than DIG-labelled dUTP.

Inhibition of aldolase A blocks biogenesis of ATP and attenuates Japanese encephalitis virus production

Viral replication depends on host proteins to supply energy and replication accessories for the sufficient production of viral progeny. In this study, we identified fructose-bisphosphate aldolase A as a binding partner of Japanese encephalitis virus (JEV) untranslated regions (UTRs) on the antigenome via RNA affinity capture and mass spectrometry. Direct interaction of aldolase A with JEV RNAs was confirmed by gel mobility shift assay and colocalization with active replication of double-stranded RNA in JEV-infected cells. Infection of JEV caused an increase in aldolase A expression of up to 33%. Knocking down aldolase A reduced viral translation, genome replication, and viral production significantly. Furthermore, JEV infection consumed 50% of cellular ATP, and the ATP level decreased by 70% in the aldolase A-knockdown cells. Overexpression of aldolase A in aldolase A-knockdown cells increased ATP levels significantly. Taken together, these results indicate that JEV replication requires aldolase A and consumes ATP. This is the first report of direct involvement of a host metabolic enzyme, aldolase A protein, in JEV replication.
