چکیده

Viruses attempt to create a distinctive cellular environment to favor viral replication and spread. Recent studies uncovered new functions of the sphingolipid signaling/metabolism during pathogenic virus infections. While sphingolipids such as sphingomyelin and ceramide were reported to influence the entry step of several viruses, sphingolipid-metabolizing enzymes could directly alter viral replication processes. Influenza virus was shown to increase the level of sphingosine kinase (SK) 1 to promote virus propagation. The mechanism involves regulation of intracellular signaling pathways, leading to the amplification of influenza viral RNA synthesis and nuclear export of viral ribonucleoprotein (RNP) complex. However, bovine viral diarrhea virus inhibits SK1 to enhance the efficacy of virus replication, demonstrating the presence of virus-specific strategies for modulation of the sphingolipid system. Therefore, investigating the sphingolipid metabolism and signaling in the context of virus replication could help us design innovative therapeutic approaches to improve human health.

Sphingolipids in infectious diseases.

Sphingolipids are ubiquitous constituents of membrane lipids in eukaryotes. Sphingolipid metabolites modulate various cellular events including proliferation, differentiation, and apoptosis. In addition, sphingolipids, along with cholesterol, form detergent-resistant membrane microdomains, so called 'lipid-rafts', which are implicated in signal transduction and membrane trafficking. Sphingolipi...

Interaction between Intestinal Microbiota and Serotonin Metabolism

Gut microbiota regulates the production of signaling molecules, such as serotonin or 5-Hydroxytryptamine: 5-HT in the host. Serotonin is a biogenic amine that acts as a neurotransmitter in the gut and brain. There is a perfect interaction between human gastrointestinal microbiota and the serotonin system. The gut microbiota plays an important role in the serotonin signaling pathways through the...

Unmasking cellular response of a bloom - forming alga to virus infection by 1 resolving expression profiling at a single - cell level

14 The interaction between Emiliania huxleyi, a bloom-forming alga, and its specific large virus 15 (EhV), is one of the most ecologically important algal-virus model system. Infection by EhV 16 depends on profound rewiring of metabolic network to supply essential building blocks for viral 17 assembly. Despite the clear evidence for the modulation of the host metabolic and signaling 18 pathways...

Response of Primary Human Airway Epithelial Cells to Influenza Infection: A Quantitative Proteomic Study

Influenza A virus exerts a large health burden during both yearly epidemics and global pandemics. However, designing effective vaccine and treatment options has proven difficult since the virus evolves rapidly. Therefore, it may be beneficial to identify host proteins associated with viral infection and replication to establish potential new antiviral targets. We have previously measured host p...
