Reovirus infection activates NF-kappaB, which leads to programmed cell death in cultured cells and in the murine central nervous system. However, little is known about how NF-kappaB elicits this cellular response. To identify host genes activated by NF-kappaB following reovirus infection, we used HeLa cells engineered to express a degradation-resistant mutant of IkappaBalpha (mIkappaBalpha) under the control of an inducible promoter. Induction of mIkappaBalpha inhibited the activation of NF-kappaB and blocked the expression of NF-kappaB-responsive genes. RNA extracted from infected and uninfected cells was used in high-density oligonucleotide microarrays to examine the expression of constitutively activated genes and reovirus-stimulated genes in the presence and absence of an intact NF-kappaB signaling axis. Comparison of the microarray profiles revealed that the expression of 176 genes was significantly altered in the presence of mIkappaBalpha. Of these genes, 64 were constitutive and not regulated by reovirus, and 112 were induced in response to reovirus infection. NF-kappaB-regulated genes could be grouped into four distinct gene clusters that were temporally regulated. Gene ontology analysis identified biological processes that were significantly overrepresented in the reovirus-induced genes under NF-kappaB control. These processes include the antiviral innate immune response, cell proliferation, response to DNA damage, and taxis. Comparison with previously identified NF-kappaB-dependent gene networks induced by other stimuli, including respiratory syncytial virus, Epstein-Barr virus, tumor necrosis factor alpha, and heart disease, revealed a number of common components, including CCL5/RANTES, CXCL1/GRO-alpha, TNFAIP3/A20, and interleukin-6. Together, these results suggest a genetic program for reovirus-induced apoptosis involving NF-kappaB-directed expression of cellular genes that activate death signaling pathways in infected cells.  相似文献

Mammalian orthoreoviruses induce apoptosis in vivo and in vitro; however, the specific mechanism by which apoptosis is induced is not fully understood. Recent studies have indicated that the reovirus outer capsid protein μ1 is the primary determinant of reovirus-induced apoptosis. Ectopically expressed μ1 induces apoptosis and localizes to intracellular membranes. Here we report that ectopic expression of μ1 activated both the extrinsic and intrinsic apoptotic pathways with activation of initiator caspases-8 and -9 and downstream effector caspase-3. Activation of both pathways was required for μ1-induced apoptosis, as specific inhibition of either caspase-8 or caspase-9 abolished downstream effector caspase-3 activation. Similar to reovirus infection, ectopic expression of μ1 caused release into the cytosol of cytochrome c and smac/DIABLO from the mitochondrial intermembrane space. Pancaspase inhibitors did not prevent cytochrome c release from cells expressing μ1, indicating that caspases were not required. Additionally, μ1- or reovirus-induced release of cytochrome c occurred efficiently in Bax(-/-)Bak(-/-) mouse embryonic fibroblasts (MEFs). Finally, we found that reovirus-induced apoptosis occurred in Bax(-/-)Bak(-/-) MEFs, indicating that reovirus-induced apoptosis occurs independently of the proapoptotic Bcl-2 family members Bax and Bak.  相似文献

Earlier we reported that NF-kappaB is activated by protein kinase R (PKR) in herpes simplex virus 1-infected cells. Here we report that in PKR(-/-) cells the yields of wild-type virus are 10-fold higher than in PKR(+/+) cells. In cells lacking NF-kappaB p50 (nfkb1), p65 (relA), or both p50 and p65, the yields of virus were reduced 10-fold. Neither wild-type nor mutant cells undergo apoptosis following infection with wild-type virus. Whereas PKR(+/+) and NF-kappaB(+/+) control cell lines undergo apoptosis induced by the d120 (Deltaalpha4) mutant of HSV-1, the mutant PKR(-/-) and NF-kappaB(-/-) cell lines were resistant. The evidence suggests that the stress-induced apoptosis resulting from d120 infection requires activation of NF-kappaB and that this proapoptotic pathway is blocked in cells in which NF-kappaB is not activated or absent. Activation of NF-kappaB in the course of viral infection may have dual roles of attempting to curtain viral replication by rendering the cell susceptible to apoptosis induced by the virus and by inducing the synthesis of proteins that enhance viral replication.  相似文献

Junction adhesion molecule is a receptor for reovirus   总被引:32,自引:0,他引:32  
Virus attachment to cells plays an essential role in viral tropism and disease. Reovirus serotypes 1 and 3 differ in the capacity to target distinct cell types in the murine nervous system and in the efficiency to induce apoptosis. The binding of viral attachment protein sigma1 to unidentified receptors controls these phenotypes. We used expression cloning to identify junction adhesion molecule (JAM), an integral tight junction protein, as a reovirus receptor. JAM binds directly to sigma1 and permits reovirus infection of nonpermissive cells. Ligation of JAM is required for reovirus-induced activation of NF-kappaB and apoptosis. Thus, reovirus interaction with cell-surface receptors is a critical determinant of both cell-type specific tropism and virus-induced intracellular signaling events that culminate in cell death.  相似文献
