Expression and functional characterization of retinoic acid-inducible gene-I-like receptors of mast cells in response to viral infection.

چکیده
To investigate the precise mechanisms of virus recognition by mast cells, the expression and functional characteristics of virus recognition receptors that lead to mast cell activation were investigated. Our results suggest that mast cells are partly responsible for the early in vivo production of antiviral cytokines and chemokines upon vesicular stomatitis virus (VSV) infection. Analysis of the expression of double-stranded RNA (dsRNA) recognition receptors in murine bone marrow-derived mast cells (BMMCs) revealed that BMMCs express melanoma differentiation-associated gene 5 (MDA5), protein kinase RNA-activated, retinoic acid-inducible gene-I (RIG-I) and Toll-like receptor 3. The expression levels of these receptors were found to increase upon stimulation of mast cells with VSV as well as synthetic dsRNA: polyinosinic-polycytidylic acid. Moreover, small interfering RNA analysis to identify the receptors responsible for mast cell activation by VSV revealed that both RIG-I and MDA5 were involved in cytokine production but not in the degranulation of mast cells. Our findings suggest that mast cells produce cytokines and chemokines in the early infection stage after recognizing viruses via RIG-I and MDA5, and may contribute to antiviral responses. These data provide additional novel information that improves our understanding of antiviral innate responses that involve mast cells.

To investigate the anti-viral responses of human mast cells, we performed PCR array analysis of these cells after infection with vesicular stomatitis virus (VSV). PCR array analysis revealed that human mast cells up-regulated several anti-viral genes, including melanoma differentiation-associated gene 5, retinoic acid-inducible gene-I, and Toll-like receptor 3, together with type I interferons ...
متن کاملCoordinated Role of Toll-Like Receptor-3 and Retinoic Acid-Inducible Gene-I in the Innate Response of Bovine Endometrial Cells to Virus
Bovine herpesvirus-4 (BoHV-4) and bovine viral diarrhea virus (BVDV) infect the uterus of cattle, often resulting in reduced fertility, or abortion of the fetus, respectively. Here, exposure of primary bovine endometrial cells to BoHV-4 or BVDV modulated the production of inflammatory mediators. Viral pathogen-associated molecular patterns (PAMPs) are detected via pattern-recognition receptors ...
متن کاملTRIM14 is a mitochondrial adaptor that facilitates retinoic acid-inducible gene-I-like receptor-mediated innate immune response.
Innate immunity provides the first line of host defense against invading microbial pathogens. This defense involves retinoic acid-inducible gene-I-like receptors that detect viral RNA and activate the mitochondrial antiviral-signaling (MAVS) protein, an adaptor protein, leading to activation of the innate antiviral immune response. The mechanisms by which the MAVS signalosome assembles on mitoc...

Human metapneumovirus (HMPV) is a recently discovered pathogen that causes a significant proportion of respiratory infections in young infants, the elderly and immunocompromised patients. Very little is known regarding the cellular signalling elicited by this virus in airway epithelial cells, the target of HMPV infection. In this study, we investigated the role of the RNA helicases retinoic aci...
