Fang H, Wu XM, Zheng SY, Chang MX. Tripartite motif 2b ( trim2b) restricts spring viremia of carp virus by degrading viral proteins and negative regulators NLRP12-like receptors. J Virol 2024; 98:e0015824. [PMID: 38695539 DOI: 10.1128/jvi.00158-24] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/23/2024] [Accepted: 04/04/2024] [Indexed: 06/14/2024] Open
Abstract
Tripartite motif (TRIM) proteins are involved in different cellular functions, including regulating virus infection. In teleosts, two orthologous genes of mammalian TRIM2 are identified. However, the functions and molecular mechanisms of piscine TRIM2 remain unclear. Here, we show that trim2b-knockout zebrafish are more susceptible to spring viremia of carp virus (SVCV) infection than wild-type zebrafish. Transcriptomic analysis demonstrates that NOD-like receptor (NLR), but not RIG-I-like receptor (RLR), signaling pathway is significantly enriched in the trim2b-knockout zebrafish. In vitro, overexpression of Trim2b fails to degrade RLRs and those key proteins involved in the RLR signaling pathway but does for negative regulators NLRP12-like proteins. Zebrafish Trim2b degrades NLRP12-like proteins through its NHL_TRIM2_like and IG_FLMN domains in a ubiquitin-proteasome degradation pathway. SVCV-N and SVCV-G proteins are also degraded by NHL_TRIM2_like domains, and the degradation pathway is an autophagy lysosomal pathway. Moreover, zebrafish Trim2b can interfere with the binding between NLRP12-like protein and SVCV viral RNA and can completely block the negative regulation of NLRP12-like protein on SVCV infection. Taken together, our data demonstrate that the mechanism of action of zebrafish trim2b against SVCV infection is through targeting the degradation of host-negative regulators NLRP12-like receptors and viral SVCV-N/SVCV-G genes.IMPORTANCESpring viremia of carp virus (SVCV) is a lethal freshwater pathogen that causes high mortality in cyprinid fish. In the present study, we identified zebrafish trim2b, NLRP12-L1, and NLRP12-L2 as potential pattern recognition receptors (PRRs) for sensing and binding viral RNA. Zebrafish trim2b functions as a positive regulator; however, NLRP12-L1 and NLRP12-L2 function as negative regulators during SVCV infection. Furthermore, we find that zebrafish trim2b decreases host lethality in two manners. First, zebrafish Trim2b promotes protein degradations of negative regulators NLRP12-L1 and NLRP12-L2 by enhancing K48-linked ubiquitination and decreasing K63-linked ubiquitination. Second, zebrafish trim2b targets viral RNAs for degradation. Therefore, this study reveals a special antiviral mechanism in lower vertebrates.

JOURNAL OF IMMUNOLOGY (BALTIMORE, MD. : 1950) 2024; 212:1791-1806.

Abstract
RIG-I-like receptors and NOD-like receptors play pivotal roles in recognizing microbe-associated molecular patterns and initiating immune responses. The LGP2 and NOD2 proteins are important members of the RIG-I-like receptor and NOD-like receptor families, recognizing viral RNA and bacterial peptidoglycan (PGN), respectively. However, in some instances bacterial infections can induce LPG2 expression via a mechanism that remains largely unknown. In the current study, we found that LGP2 can compete with NOD2 for PGN binding and inhibit antibacterial immunity by suppressing the NOD2-RIP2 axis. Recombinant CiLGP2 (Ctenopharyngodon idella LGP2) produced using either prokaryotic or eukaryotic expression platform can bind PGN and bacteria in pull-down and ELISA assays. Comparative protein structure models and intermolecular interaction prediction calculations as well as pull-down and colocalization experiments indicated that CiLGP2 binds PGN via its EEK motif with species and structural specificity. EEK deletion abolished PGN binding of CiLGP2, but insertion of the CiLGP2 EEK motif into zebrafish and mouse LGP2 did not confer PGN binding activity. CiLGP2 also facilitates bacterial replication by interacting with CiNOD2 to suppress expression of NOD2-RIP2 pathway genes. Sequence analysis and experimental verification demonstrated that LGP2 having EEK motif that can negatively regulate antibacterial immune function is present in Cyprinidae and Xenocyprididae families. These results show that LGP2 containing EEK motif competes with NOD2 for PGN binding and suppresses antibacterial immunity by inhibiting the NOD2-RIP2 axis, indicating that LGP2 plays a crucial negative role in antibacterial response beyond its classical regulatory function in antiviral immunity.

Abstract
The lung is prone to infections from respiratory viruses such as Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome Coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2). A challenge in combating these infections is the difficulty in targeting antiviral activity directly at the lung mucosal tract. Boosting the capability of the respiratory mucosa to trigger a potent immune response at the onset of infection could serve as a potential strategy for managing respiratory infections. This study focused on screening immunomodulators to enhance innate immune response in lung epithelial and immune cell models. Through testing various subfamilies and pathways of pattern recognition receptors (PRRs), the nucleotide-binding and oligomerization domain (NOD)-like receptor (NLR) family was found to selectively activate innate immunity in lung epithelial cells. Activation of NOD1 and dual NOD1/2 by the agonists TriDAP and M-TriDAP, respectively, increased the number of IL-8+ cells by engaging the NF-κB and interferon response pathways. Lung epithelial cells showed a stronger response to NOD1 and dual NOD1/2 agonists compared to control. Interestingly, a less-pronounced response to NOD1 agonists was noted in PBMCs, indicating a tissue-specific effect of NOD1 in lung epithelial cells without inducing widespread systemic activation. The specificity of the NOD agonist pathway was confirmed through gene silencing of NOD1 (siRNA) and selective NOD1 and dual NOD1/2 inhibitors in lung epithelial cells. Ultimately, activation induced by NOD1 and dual NOD1/2 agonists created an antiviral environment that hindered SARS-CoV-2 replication in vitro in lung epithelial cells.

Abstract
Diseases caused by pathogens contribute to molecular adaptations in host immunity. Variety of viral pathogens challenging animal immunity can drive positive selection diversifying receptors recognising the infections. However, whether distinct virus sensing systems differ across animals in their evolutionary modes remains unclear. Our review provides a comparative overview of natural selection shaping molecular evolution in vertebrate viral-binding pattern recognition receptors (PRRs). Despite prevailing negative selection arising from the functional constraints, multiple lines of evidence now suggest diversifying selection in the Toll-like receptors (TLRs), NOD-like receptors (NLRs), RIG-I-like receptors (RLRs) and oligoadenylate synthetases (OASs). In several cases, location of the positively selected sites in the ligand-binding regions suggests effects on viral detection although experimental support is lacking. Unfortunately, in most other PRR families including the AIM2-like receptor family, C-type lectin receptors (CLRs), and cyclic GMP-AMP synthetase studies characterising their molecular evolution are rare, preventing comparative insight. We indicate shared characteristics of the viral sensor evolution and highlight priorities for future research.

Abstract
NOD1 and NOD2 as two representative members of nucleotide-binding oligomerization domain (NOD)-like receptor (NLR) family play important roles in antimicrobial immunity. However, transcription mechanism of nod1 and nod2 and their signal circle are less understood in teleost fish. In this study, with the cloning of card9 and ripk2 in Chinese perch, the interaction between NOD1, NOD2, and CARD9 and RIPK2 were revealed through coimmunoprecipitation and immunofluorescence assays. The overexpression of NOD1, NOD2, RIPK2 and CARD9 induced significantly the promoter activity of NF-κB, IFNh and IFNc. Furthermore, it was found that nod1 and nod2 were induced by poly(I:C), type I IFNs, RLR and even NOD1/NOD2 themselves through the ISRE site of their proximal promoters. It is thus indicated that nod1 and nod2 can be classified also as ISGs due to the presence of ISRE in their proximal promoter, and their expression can be mechanistically controlled through PRR pathway as well as through IFN signaling in antiviral immune response.

Abstract
As an ancient species with both conservation and commercial value, Sturgeon's inflammatory regulation mechanism is a research point. Nucleotide-binding and oligomerization domain-containing proteins 1 and 2 (NOD1/2) are classical intracellular pattern recognition receptors (PRRs) in immunity of anti-bacterial infection. However, the characterization and function of NOD1/2 in Sturgeon are still unclear. In this study, we analyzed the synteny relationship of NOD1/2 genes between Acipenser ruthenus and representative fishes at the genome-level. Results showed that the ArNOD2 collinear genes pair was present in all representative fishes. The duplicated ArNOD1/2 genes were under purifying selection during evolution as indicated by their Ka/Ks values. To explore the function of NOD1/2, we further investigated their expression patterns and the effects of pathogenic infection, PAMPs treatment, and siRNA interference in Acipenser baerii, the sibling species of A. ruthenus. Results showed that both AbNOD1/2 were expressed at early developmental stages and in different tissues. Pathogenic infection in vivo and PAMPs treatment in vitro demonstrated that AbNOD1/2 could respond to pathogen stimulation. siRNA interference with AbNOD1/2 inhibited expression levels of RIPK2 and inflammatory cytokines compared to the control group after iE-DAP or MDP treatment. This study hinted that the AbNOD1/2 could stimulate the inflammatory cytokines response during evolutionary processes.

Abstract
IMPORTANCE As a major pathogen, nervous necrosis virus (NNV) infects more than 120 fish species worldwide and is virulent to larvae and juvenile fish, hampering the development of the fish fry industry. Understanding virus-host interaction and underlying mechanisms is an important but largely unknown issue in fish virus studies. Here, using channel catfish ovary and fathead minnow cells as models for the study of innate immunity signaling, we found that NNV-encoded ProA activated interferon signaling via the retinoic acid-inducible gene I (RIG-I)-like receptor (RLR) pathway which was still suppressed by the infection of wild-type NNV. This finding has important implications for the comprehension of NNV protein function and the immune response from different cells. First, RIG-I is the key node for anti-NNV innate immunity. Second, the response intensity of RLR signaling determines the degree of NNV proliferation. This study expands our knowledge regarding the overview of signal pathways affected by NNV-encoded protein and also highlights potential directions for the control of aquatic viruses.

Abstract
In mammals, right open reading frame kinase 3 (RIOK3) is related with cancer development and immune regulation. To explore the role of teleost RIOK3 in the antiviral innate immunity, the homolog of RIOK3 (bcRIOK3) from black carp (Mylopharyngodon piceus) has been cloned and characterized in this study. Sequence analysis revealed that bcRIOK3 is conserved in vertebrates. The transcription of bcRIOK3 varied in host cells in response to the stimulation of spring viremia of carp virus (SVCV), poly (I:C), and LPS. Immunoblotting (IB) and immunofluorescence (IF) assays identified bcRIOK3 as a cytoplasmic protein with a molecular weight of ∼60 kDa. It was interesting that bcRIOK3 knockdown led to the decreased basal mRNA levels of IFNa, IFNb and Viperin; however, triggered obviously higher mRNA levels of the above genes after viral infection and enhanced host resistance to SVCV. Like its mammalian counterpart, bcRIOK3 overexpression in EPC cells showed a significant inhibitory effect on black carp MDA5 (bcMDA5)-mediated transcription of interferon promoters and antiviral activity. Co-immunoprecipitation and immunofluorescent assays identified the association between bcRIOK3 and bcMDA5. Further analysis revealed that bcRIOK3 enhanced the K48-linked ubiquitination and proteasome-dependent degradation of bcMDA5, and it weakened the oligomerization of bcMDA5 under poly (I:C) stimulation. In summary, our data conclude that RIOK3 dampens MDA5-mediated IFN signaling by promoting its degradation in black carp, which provide new insights into the regulation of IFN signaling in teleost.

Abstract
Paramyxoviruses are negative-sense, single-stranded RNA viruses that are associated with numerous diseases in humans and animals. J paramyxovirus (JPV) was first isolated from moribund mice (Mus musculus) with hemorrhagic lung lesions in Australia in 1972. In 2016, JPV was classified into the newly established genus Jeilongvirus. Novel jeilongviruses are being discovered worldwide in wildlife populations. However, the effects of jeilongvirus infection on host gene expression remains uncharacterized. To address this, cellular RNA from JPV-infected mouse fibroblasts was collected at 2, 4, 8, 12, 16, 24, and 48 hours post-infection (hpi) and were sequenced using single-end 75 base pairs (SE75) sequencing chemistry on an Illumina NextSeq platform. Differentially expressed genes (DEGs) between the virus-infected replicates and mock replicates at each timepoint were identified using the Tophat2-Cufflinks-Cuffdiff protocol. At 2 hpi, 11 DEGs were identified in JPV-infected cells, while 1,837 DEGs were detected at 48 hpi. A GO analysis determined that the genes at the earlier timepoints were involved in interferon responses, while there was a shift towards genes that are involved in antigen processing and presentation processes at the later timepoints. At 48 hpi, a KEGG analysis revealed that many of the DEGs detected were involved in pathways that are important for immune responses. qRT-PCR verified that Rtp4, Ifit3, Mx2, and Stat2 were all upregulated during JPV infection, while G0s2 was downregulated. After JPV infection, the expression of inflammatory and antiviral factors in mouse fibroblasts changes significantly. This study provides crucial insight into the different arms of host immunity that mediate Jeilongvirus infection. Understanding the pathogenic mechanisms of Jeilongvirus will lead to better strategies for the prevention and control of potential diseases that may arise from this group of viruses.

Whole exome sequencing of patients with varicella-zoster virus and herpes simplex virus induced acute retinal necrosis reveals rare disease-associated genetic variants.

Abstract
Purpose Herpes simplex virus (HSV) and varicella-zoster virus (VZV) are neurotropic human alphaherpesviruses endemic worldwide. Upon primary infection, both viruses establish lifelong latency in neurons and reactivate intermittently to cause a variety of mild to severe diseases. Acute retinal necrosis (ARN) is a rare, sight-threatening eye disease induced by ocular VZV or HSV infection. The virus and host factors involved in ARN pathogenesis remain incompletely described. We hypothesize an underlying genetic defect in at least part of ARN cases. Methods We collected blood from 17 patients with HSV-or VZV-induced ARN, isolated DNA and performed Whole Exome Sequencing by Illumina followed by analysis in Varseq with criteria of CADD score > 15 and frequency in GnomAD < 0.1% combined with biological filters. Gene modifications relative to healthy control genomes were filtered according to high quality and read-depth, low frequency, high deleteriousness predictions and biological relevance. Results We identified a total of 50 potentially disease-causing genetic variants, including missense, frameshift and splice site variants and on in-frame deletion in 16 of the 17 patients. The vast majority of these genes are involved in innate immunity, followed by adaptive immunity, autophagy, and apoptosis; in several instances variants within a given gene or pathway was identified in several patients. Discussion We propose that the identified variants may contribute to insufficient viral control and increased necrosis ocular disease presentation in the patients and serve as a knowledge base and starting point for the development of improved diagnostic, prophylactic, and therapeutic applications.

Abstract
Nucleotide-binding oligomerization domain-containing proteins, NOD1 and NOD2, are cytosolic receptors that recognize dipeptides and tripeptides derived from the bacterial cell wall component peptidoglycan (PGN). During the past two decades, studies have revealed several roles for NODs beyond detecting PGN fragments, including activation of an innate immune anti-viral response, NOD-mediated autophagy, and ER stress induced inflammation. Recent studies have also clarified the dynamic regulation of NODs at cellular membranes to generate specific and balanced immune responses. This review will describe how NOD1 and NOD2 detect microbes and cellular stress and detail the molecular mechanisms that regulate activation and signaling while highlighting new evidence and the impact on inflammatory disease pathogenesis.

Abstract
Herein, the effects of Agaricus bisporus Polysaccharides (ABPs) on anti-channel catfish virus (CCV) infections to promote their application in channel catfish culture were explored. Transcriptome and metabolome analyses were conducted on the spleen of a CCV-infected channel catfish model fed with or without ABPs. CCV infections upregulated many immune and apoptosis-related genes, such as IL-6, IFN-α3, IFN-γ1, IL-26, Casp3, Casp8, and IL-10, and activated specific immunity mediated by B cells. However, after adding ABPs, the expression of inflammation-related genes decreased in CCV-infected channel catfish, and the inflammatory inhibitors NLRC3 were upregulated. Meanwhile, the expression of apoptosis-related genes was reduced, indicating that ABPs can more rapidly and strongly enhance the immunity of channel catfish to resist viral infection. Moreover, the metabonomic analysis showed that channel catfish had a high energy requirement during CCV infection, and ABPs could enhance the immune function of channel catfish. In conclusion, ABPs can enhance the antiviral ability of channel catfish by enhancing immune response and regulating inflammation. Thus, these findings provided new insights into the antiviral response effects of ABPs, which might support their application in aquaculture.

Abstract
Dietary fish oil (FO) replacement has led to an inflammatory response in fish species. This study aimed to identify immune-related proteins in the liver tissue of fish fed a FO-based or soybean oil (SO)-based diet. By conducting proteomics and phosphoproteomics analyses, a total of 1601 differentially expressed proteins (DEPs) and 460 differentially abundant phosphorylated proteins (DAPs) were identified, respectively. Enrichment analysis revealed immune-related proteins involved in bacterial infection, pathogen identification, cytokine production, and cell chemotaxis. The mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK) pathway exhibited significant alterations in both protein and phosphorylation levels, with several hub DEPs and DAPs associated with MAPK pathway and leukocyte transendothelial migration being notable. In vitro experiments indicated that linolenic acid (LNA), derived from SO, inhibited the expression of NF-E2-related factor 2 (Nrf2), but increased the expression of signaling proteins linked to nuclear factor κB (NF-κB) and MAPK pathways. Transwell assays indicated that treatment of liver cells with LNA promoted macrophage migration. Collectively, the results showed that the SO-based diet upregulated the expression of NF-κB signaling-related proteins and activated the MAPK pathway, promoting immune cell migration. These findings provide novel insights for developing effective solutions to alleviate health problems caused by dietary high levels of SO inclusion.

Abstract
The coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic, caused by severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus (SARS-CoV-2), has affected all countries worldwide. Although some symptoms are relatively mild, others are still associated with severe and even fatal clinical outcomes. Innate and adaptive immunity are important for the control of SARS-CoV-2 infections, whereas a comprehensive characterization of the innate and adaptive immune response to COVID-19 is still lacking and the mechanisms underlying immune pathogenesis and host predisposing factors are still a matter of scientific debate. Here, the specific functions and kinetics of innate and adaptive immunity involved in SARS-CoV-2 recognition and resultant pathogenesis are discussed, as well as their immune memory for vaccinations, viral-mediated immune evasion, and the current and future immunotherapeutic agents. We also highlight host factors that contribute to infection, which may deepen the understanding of viral pathogenesis and help identify targeted therapies that attenuate severe disease and infection.

Abstract
In mammals, the tripartite motif (TRIM) proteins have been identified as critical factors involved in various cellular processes, including antiviral immunity. In teleost fish, a subfamily of fish-specific TRIM (finTRIM, FTR) has emerged in genus- or species-specific duplication. In this study, a finTRIM gene, called ftr33, was identified in zebrafish (Danio rerio), and phylogenic analysis revealed that FTR33 is closely related with zebrafish FTR14. The FTR33 protein contains all conservative domains reported in other finTRIMs. The ftr33 has a constitutive expression in embryos and in tissues/organs of adult fish, and its expression can be induced following spring viremia of carp virus (SVCV) infection and interferon (IFN) stimulation. The overexpression of FTR33 significantly downregulated the expression of type I IFNs and IFN-stimulated genes (ISGs) both in vitro and in vivo, respectively, leading to the increased replication of SVCV. It was also found that FTR33 interacted with melanoma differentiation associated gene 5 (MDA5) or mitochondrial anti-viral signaling protein (MAVS) to weaken the promoter activity of type I IFN. It is thus concluded that the FTR33, as an ISG, in zebrafish can negatively regulate IFN-mediated antiviral response.

Abstract
Teleosts rely on innate immunity to recognize and defense against pathogenic microorganisms. RIG-I-like receptor (RLR) family is the major pattern recognition receptor (PRR) to detect RNA viruses. After recognition of viral RNA components, these cytosolic sensors activate downstream signaling cascades to induce the expression of type I interferons (IFNs) and other cytokines firing antiviral responses. Meanwhile, numerous molecules take part in the complex regulation of RLR signals by various methods, such as post-translational modification (PTM), to produce an immune response that is appropriately balanced. In this review, we summarize our recent understanding of PTMs and other regulatory proteins in modulating RLR signaling pathway, which is helpful for systematically studying the regulatory mechanism of antiviral innate immunity of teleost fish.

Abstract
ObjectivesTo investigate the clinical significance of the interferon (IFN) score, especially the IFN-I score, in patients with anti-melanoma differentiation-associated gene 5 (MDA5) antibody-positive dermatomyositis (anti-MDA5+ DM).MethodsWe enrolled 262 patients with different autoimmune diseases, including idiopathic inflammatory myopathy, systemic lupus erythematosus, rheumatoid arthritis, adult-onset Still’s disease, and Sjögren’s syndrome, as well as 58 healthy controls. Multiplex quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction (RT-qPCR) using four TaqMan probes was used to evaluate type I IFN-stimulated genes (IFI44 and MX1), one type II IFN-stimulated gene (IRF1), and one internal control gene (HRPT1), which were used to determine the IFN-I score. The clinical features and disease activity index were compared between the high and low IFN-I score groups in 61 patients with anti-MDA5+ DM. The associations between laboratory findings and the predictive value of the baseline IFN-I score for mortality were analyzed.ResultsThe IFN score was significantly higher in patients with anti-MDA5+ DM than in healthy controls. The IFN-I score was positively correlated with the serum IFN-α concentration, ferritin concentration, and Myositis Disease Activity Assessment Visual Analogue Scale (MYOACT) score. Compared with patients with a low IFN-I score, patients with a high IFN-I score showed a higher MYOACT score, C-reactive protein concentration, aspartate transaminase concentration, ferritin concentration, plasma cell percentage, and CD3+ T-cell percentage, as well as lower lymphocyte, natural killer cell, and monocyte counts. The 3-month survival rate was significantly lower in patients with an IFN-I score of >4.9 than in those with an IFN-I score of ≤4.9 (72.9% vs. 100%, respectively; P = 0.044).ConclusionThe IFN score, especially the IFN-I score, measured by multiplex RT-qPCR is a valuable tool to monitor disease activity and predict mortality in patients with anti-MDA5+ DM.

Abstract
Severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus-2 (SARS-CoV-2) is the causative virus of pandemic acute respiratory disease called coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19). Most of the infected individuals have asymptomatic or mild symptoms, but some patients show severe and critical systemic inflammation including tissue damage and multi-organ failures. Immune responses to the pathogen determine clinical course. In general, the activation of innate immune responses is mediated by host pattern-recognition receptors (PRRs) that recognize pathogen-associated molecular patterns (PAMPs) as well as host damage-associated molecular patterns (DAMPs), which results in the activation of the downstream gene induction programs of types I and III interferons (IFNs) and proinflammatory cytokines for inducing antiviral activity. However, the excessive activation of these responses may lead to deleterious inflammation. Here, we review the recent advances in our understanding of innate immune responses to SARS-CoV-2 infection, particularly in terms of innate recognition and the subsequent inflammation underlying COVID-19 immunopathology.

Abstract
Liquid-liquid phase separation (LLPS) is responsible for the formation of so-called membrane-less organelles (MLOs) that are essential for the spatio-temporal organization of the cell. Intrinsically disordered proteins (IDPs) or regions (IDRs), either alone or in conjunction with nucleic acids, are involved in the formation of these intracellular condensates. Notably, viruses exploit LLPS at their own benefit to form viral replication compartments. Beyond giving rise to biomolecular condensates, viral proteins are also known to partition into cellular MLOs, thus raising the question as to whether these cellular phase-separating proteins are drivers of LLPS or behave as clients/regulators. Here, we focus on a set of eukaryotic proteins that are either sequestered in viral factories or colocalize with viral proteins within cellular MLOs, with the primary goal of gathering organized, predicted, and experimental information on these proteins, which constitute promising targets for innovative antiviral strategies. Using various computational approaches, we thoroughly investigated their disorder content and inherent propensity to undergo LLPS, along with their biological functions and interactivity networks. Results show that these proteins are on average, though to varying degrees, enriched in disorder, with their propensity for phase separation being correlated, as expected, with their disorder content. A trend, which awaits further validation, tends to emerge whereby the most disordered proteins serve as drivers, while more ordered cellular proteins tend instead to be clients of viral factories. In light of their high disorder content and their annotated LLPS behavior, most proteins in our data set are drivers or co-drivers of molecular condensation, foreshadowing a key role of these cellular proteins in the scaffolding of viral infection-related MLOs.

Abstract
Inflammation is a hallmark of the physiological response to aggressions. It is orchestrated by a plethora of molecules that detect the danger, signal intracellularly, and activate immune mechanisms to fight the threat. Understanding these processes at a level that allows to modulate their fate in a pathological context strongly relies on in vivo studies, as these can capture the complexity of the whole process and integrate the intricate interplay between the cellular and molecular actors of inflammation. Over the years, zebrafish has proven to be a well-recognized model to study immune responses linked to human physiopathology. We here provide a systematic review of the molecular effectors of inflammation known in this vertebrate and recapitulate their modes of action, as inferred from sterile or infection-based inflammatory models. We present a comprehensive analysis of their sequence, expression, and tissue distribution and summarize the tools that have been developed to study their function. We further highlight how these tools helped gain insights into the mechanisms of immune cell activation, induction, or resolution of inflammation, by uncovering downstream receptors and signaling pathways. These progresses pave the way for more refined models of inflammation, mimicking human diseases and enabling drug development using zebrafish models.

Abstract
AbstractThe global aquaculture boom, fuelled by a reduction in wild population and detection of novel viruses, has created a demanding market, hence, there is a pressing need to investigate the immune system of fish, further. As the most diverse community of vertebrates and a central contributor to the progressing global aquaculture market, teleost continues to draw vast scientific interest. Recent breakthroughs in multi‐omics technologies have provided a platform to understand the role of long non‐coding RNA (lncRNA) in the host immune system during infection. Emerging evidence shows that teleost lncRNA might have a regulatory role in immune responses, mostly through lncRNA–microRNA (miRNA) sponging. Teleost lncRNA shares a functionally active short sequence complement to target the miRNA which is conserved among the several fish species. Recent report suggests that rhabdovirus exploits a lncRNA in teleost and, to dodge the host immune mechanism and negatively regulate the immune system. This observation reveals the essentiality of lncRNA in pathogen‐driven immunity in teleost. Reports available on the function of teleost lncRNA are still in early stages and experimental verifications are a limiting factor. Unravelling the lncRNA‐mediated immune regulation in fishes could be used against the invading pathogens to strengthen the aquaculture production. This review elaborates on the experimentally identified and functionally characterized lncRNA and its regulatory role in the teleost immune response during infection and pathogen‐driven host immune evolution, which could eventually lead to achieving high standards in aquaculture productivity.

Abstract
Nuclear factor-kappa B (NF-κB) pathways have a close relationship with many diseases, especially in terms of the regulation of inflammation and the immune response. Non-coding RNAs (ncRNAs) are a heterogeneous subset of endogenous RNAs that directly affect cellular function in the absence of proteins or peptide products; these include microRNAs (miRNAs), long noncoding RNAs (lncRNAs), circular RNAs (circRNAs), etc. Studies on the roles of ncRNAs in targeting the NF-κB pathways in aquatic animals are scarce. A few research studies have confirmed detailed regulatory mechanisms among ncRNAs and the NF-κB pathways in aquatic animals. This comprehensive review is presented concerning ncRNAs targeting the NF-κB pathway in aquatic animals and provides new insights into NF-κB pathways regulatory mechanisms of aquatic animals. The review discusses new possibilities for developing non-coding-RNA-based antiviral applications in fisheries.

Abstract
Background: Subacute sclerosing panencephalitis is a progressive neurodegenerative disease that is a late complication of measles infection. However, to date, the pathogenesis of subacute sclerosing panencephalitis is still not explained; both viral and host factors seem to be associated. The present study aimed to investigate the relationship between NOD1 and NOD2 gene variants and subacute sclerosing panencephalitis. Methods: The gene variants of NOD1 (rs2075820 and rs2075818) and NOD2 (R334Q and R334W) were explored in 64 subacute sclerosing panencephalitis patients and 70 controls using polymerase chain reaction-restriction fragment length polymorphism (PCR-RFLP). Results: The frequencies of the AA genotype and A allele of rs2075820 (NOD1; c.796G>A) polymorphism were lower in patients compared with controls (P = .022 and .014, respectively). The presence of the A allele of rs2075820 may be considered as a protective factor for subacute sclerosing panencephalitis. There was a significant difference between the groups in rs2075818 (NOD1 G/C) polymorphism, and the CC genotype increased the risk of subacute sclerosing panencephalitis by 3.471-fold. The carriers of the C allele of rs2075818 (G/C) had a 1.855-fold susceptibility to subacute sclerosing panencephalitis (P = .018). The GC genotype might be associated with subacute sclerosing panencephalitis susceptibility in the patients compared with patients without having that haplotype (P = .03). Conclusions: Thus, we identified an association between subacute sclerosing panencephalitis and the rs2075820 (NOD1 G/A) and rs2075818 (NOD1 G/C) polymorphisms. These findings implicate a possible effect of this genetic polymorphism in susceptibility to subacute sclerosing panencephalitis, which needs to be confirmed in bigger populations.

Abstract
The innate immune system serves as the first line of defense against invading pathogens; however, dysregulated innate immune responses can induce aberrant inflammation that is detrimental to the host. Therefore, careful innate immune regulation is critical during infections. The coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic is caused by severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) and has resulted in global morbidity and mortality as well as socio-economic stresses. Innate immune sensing of SARS-CoV-2 by multiple host cell pattern recognition receptors leads to the production of various pro-inflammatory cytokines and the induction of inflammatory cell death. These processes can contribute to cytokine storm, tissue damage, and acute respiratory distress syndrome. Here, we discuss the sensing of SARS-CoV-2 to induce innate immune activation and the contribution of this innate immune signaling in the development and severity of COVID-19. In addition, we provide a conceptual framework for innate immunity driving cytokine storm and organ damage in patients with severe COVID-19. A better understanding of the molecular mechanisms regulated by innate immunity is needed for the development of targeted modalities that can improve patient outcomes by mitigating severe disease.

Abstract
Integrins are α-β heterodimeric cell receptors that can bind the protein components of pathogens, and play crucial roles in mammalian immune responses, but the immune functions mediated by integrins remains largely unknown in teleost fish. In this study, an integrin αvβ3 (GCαvβ3) originally assembled by αv (GCαv) and β3 (GCβ3) subunits, was identified from a teleost fish grass carp Ctenopharyngodon idella. The pairwise alignment analyses showed that the amino acid sequences of GCαv and GCβ3 shared high similarity (75.2-95.1%) and identity (58.6-90.7%) with their homologs from other vertebrates. Both GCαv and GCβ3 harbored the conserved protein domains and motifs, and were clustered in fish branch of the phylogenetic tree containing the counterparts from various vertebrates. Co-immunoprecipitation displayed that GCβ3 could interact with the grass carp reovirus (GCRV) outer capsid protein VP5. Two incubation experiments revealed that the interaction of GCRV or VP5 proteins with GCβ3 could induce the expressions of type I interferons (IFNs) including IFN2 and IFN3 in grass carp ovary cell line. The functional analysis demonstrated that GCαvβ3 served as a receptor of viral protein components to be involved in antiviral immunity as human integrin αvβ3 did. In addition, both GCαv and GCβ3 were significantly upregulated in various tissues of grass carp after GCRV infection. This study might provide fundamental basis for understanding the molecular characteristics and immune functions of GCαvβ3, and offer a new insight into the antiviral immune mechanism specific to the integrins in grass carp.

Abstract
Rainbow trout (Oncorhynchus mykiss) is an important economical cold-water fish worldwide. However, infection with infectious hematopoietic necrosis virus (IHNV) has severely restricted the development of aquaculture and caused huge economic losses. Currently, little is known about the immune defense mechanisms of rainbow trout against IHNV. In this study, we detected the changes of immune parameters over different post-infection periods (6-, 12-, 24-, 48-, 72-, 96-, 120-, and 144 hours post-infection (hpi)), mRNA and miRNA expression profiles under 48 hpi (T48L) compared to control (C48L), and key immune-related genes expression patterns in rainbow trout liver following IHNV challenge through biochemical methods, RNA-seq, and qRT-PCR, and the function of miR-330-y was verified by overexpression and silencing in vitro and in vivo. The results revealed that alkaline phosphatase (AKP), alanine aminotransferase (ALT), catalase (CAT), and total superoxide dismutase (T-SOD) activities, and lysozyme (LZM) content showed significant peaks at 48 hpi, whereas malondialdehyde (MDA) content and aspartate aminotransferase (AST) activity decreased continuously during infection, and acid phosphatase (ACP) activity varied slightly. From RNA-seq, a total of 6844 genes and 86 miRNAs were differentially expressed, and numerous immune-related differentially expressed genes (DEGs) involved in RIG-I-like receptor signaling pathway, Toll-like receptor signaling pathway, NOD-like receptor signaling pathway, cytokine-cytokine receptor interaction, and antigen processing and presentation were significantly upregulated in T48Lm group, including IFIH1, DHX58, MAVS, TRAF3, IRF3, IRF7, MX1, TLR3, TLR8, MYD88, NOD1, NOD2, IL-8, CXCR1, CD209, CD83, and TAP1. Integrated analysis identified seven miRNAs (miR-425-x, miR-185-x, miR-338-x, miR-330-y, miR-361-x, miR-505-y, and miR-191-x) that target at least three key immune-related DEGs. Expression analysis showed that IFIH1, DHX58, IRF3, IRF7, MX1, TLR3, TLR8, and MYD88 showed a marked increase after 24 hpi during infection. Further research confirmed TAP1 as one of the targets of miR-330-y, overexpression of miR-330-y with mimics or agomir significantly reduced the expression levels of TAP1, IRF3, and IFN, and the opposite effects were obtained by inhibitor. These results facilitate in-depth understanding of the immune mechanisms in rainbow trout against IHNV.

Abstract
High doses of ionizing radiation can cause cardiovascular diseases (CVDs); however, the effects of <100 mGy radiation on CVD remain underreported. Endothelial cells (ECs) play major roles in cardiovascular health and disease, and their function is reduced by stimuli such as chronic disease, metabolic disorders, and smoking. However, whether exposure to low-dose radiation results in the disruption of similar molecular mechanisms in ECs under diabetic and non-diabetic states remains largely unknown; we aimed to address this gap in knowledge through the molecular and functional characterization of primary human aortic endothelial cells (HAECs) derived from patients with type 2 diabetes (T2D-HAECs) and normal HAECs in response to low-dose radiation. To address these limitations, we performed RNA sequencing on HAECs and T2D-HAECs following exposure to 100 mGy of ionizing radiation and examined the transcriptome changes associated with the low-dose radiation. Compared with that in the non-irradiation group, low-dose irradiation induced 243 differentially expressed genes (DEGs) (133 down-regulated and 110 up-regulated) in HAECs and 378 DEGs (195 down-regulated and 183 up-regulated) in T2D-HAECs. We also discovered a significant association between the DEGs and the interferon (IFN)-I signaling pathway, which is associated with CVD by Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes (KEGG) pathway analysis, protein−protein network analysis, and module analysis. Our findings demonstrate the potential impact of low-dose radiation on EC functions that are related to the risk of CVD.

Abstract
Retinoic acid-inducible gene I (RIG-I)-like receptors (RLRs), which are pivotal sensors of RNA virus invasions, mediate the transcriptional induction of genes encoding type I interferons (IFNs) and proinflammatory cytokines, successfully establishing host antiviral immune response. A few excellent reviews have elaborated on the structural biology of RLRs and the antiviral mechanisms of RLR activation. In this review, we give a basic understanding of RLR biology and summarize recent findings of how RLR signaling cascade is strictly controlled by host regulatory mechanisms, which include RLR-interacting proteins, post-translational modifications and microRNAs (miRNAs). Furthermore, we pay particular attention to the relationship between RLRs and diseases, especially how RLRs participate in SARS-CoV-2, malaria or bacterial infections, how single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) or mutations in RLRs and antibodies against RLRs lead to autoinflammatory diseases and autoimmune diseases, and how RLRs are involved in anti-tumor immunity. These findings will provide insights and guidance for antiviral and immunomodulatory therapies targeting RLRs.

Abstract
Influenza virus and coronavirus are two important respiratory viruses, which often cause serious respiratory diseases in humans and animals after infection. In recent years, highly pathogenic avian influenza virus (HPAIV) and SARS-CoV-2 have become major pathogens causing respiratory diseases in humans. Thus, an in-depth understanding of the relationship between viral infection and host innate immunity is particularly important to the stipulation of effective control strategies. As the first line of defense against pathogens infection, innate immunity not only acts as a natural physiological barrier, but also eliminates pathogens through the production of interferon (IFN), the formation of inflammasomes, and the production of pro-inflammatory cytokines. In this process, the recognition of viral pathogen-associated molecular patterns (PAMPs) by host pattern recognition receptors (PRRs) is the initiation and the most important part of the innate immune response. In this review, we summarize the roles of RNA sensors in the host innate immune response to influenza virus and coronavirus infections in different species, with a particular focus on innate immune recognition of viral nucleic acids in host cells, which will help to develop an effective strategy for the control of respiratory infectious diseases.

Abstract
Circular RNA (circRNA) is produced by splicing head to tail and is widely distributed in multicellular organisms, and circRNA reportedly can participate in various cell biological processes. In this study, we discovered a novel exon-intron circRNA derived from probable E3 ubiquitin-protein ligase RNF217 (RNF217) gene, namely, circRNF217, which was related to the antibacterial responses in teleost fish. Results indicated that circRNF217 played essential roles in host antibacterial immunity and inhibited the Vibrio anguillarum invasion into cells. Our study also found a microRNA miR-130-3p, which could inhibit antibacterial immune response and promote V. anguillarum invasion into cells by targeting NOD1. Moreover, we also found that the antibacterial effect inhibited by miR-130-3p could be reversed with circRNF217. In mechanism, our data revealed that circRNF217 was a competing endogenous RNA of NOD1 by sponging miR-130-3p, leading to activation of the NF-κB pathway and then enhancing the innate antibacterial responses. In addition, we also found that circRNF217 can promote the antiviral response caused by Siniperca chuatsi rhabdovirus through targeting NOD1. Our study provides new insights for understanding the impact of circRNA on host-pathogen interactions and formulating fish disease prevention to resist the severely harmful V. anguillarum infection.

Abstract
Grass carp reovirus (GCRV) is a highly virulent RNA virus that mainly infects grass carp and causes hemorrhagic disease. The roles of nonstructural proteins NS38 and NS80 of GCRV-873 in the viral replication cycle and viral inclusion bodies have been established. However, the strategies that NS38 and NS80 used to avoid host antiviral immune response are still unknown. In this study, we report the negative regulations of NS38 and NS80 on the RIG-I-like receptors (RLRs) antiviral signaling pathway and the production of IFNs and IFN-stimulated genes. First, both in the case of overexpression and GCRV infection, NS38 and NS80 inhibited the IFN promoter activation induced by RIG-I, MDA5, MAVS, TBK1, IRF3, and IRF7 and mRNA abundance of key antiviral genes involved in the RLR-mediated signaling. Second, both in the case of overexpression and GCRV infection, NS38 interacted with piscine TBK1 and IRF3, but not with piscine RIG-I, MDA5, MAVS, and TNF receptor-associated factor (TRAF) 3. Whereas NS80 interacted with piscine MAVS, TRAF3, and TBK1, but not with piscine RIG-I, MDA5, and IRF3. Finally, both in the case of overexpression and GCRV infection, NS38 inhibited the formation of the TBK1-IRF3 complex, but NS80 inhibited the formation of the TBK1-TRAF3 complex. Most importantly, NS38 and NS80 could hijack piscine TBK1 and IRF3 into the cytoplasmic viral inclusion bodies and inhibit the translocation of IRF3 into the nucleus. Collectively, all of these data demonstrate that GCRV nonstructural proteins can avoid host antiviral immune response by targeting the RLR signaling pathway, which prevents IFN-stimulated gene production and facilitates GCRV replication.

Abstract
Sterile triploid fish (3n = 150), derived from the hybridization between red crucian carp (Carassius auratus red var., ♀, 2n = 100) and allotetraploid (♂, 4n = 200), exhibits the improved disease resistance compared with its parents, but the current knowledge of the immunity of triploid fish is limited. Here, we report the identification and characterization of melanoma differentiation-associated gene 5 (MDA5) homologues from red crucian carp, triploid fish and allotetraploid. In this study, one red crucian carp MDA5 transcript (2nMDA5), two triploid fish MDA5 transcripts (3nMDA5-a and 3nMDA5-b) and two allotetraploid fish MDA5 transcripts (4nMDA5-a and 4nMDA5-b) have been cloned and identified separately. Immunofluorescence staining assay displayed that these MDA5 proteins were cytoplasmic proteins. RT-qPCR assay showed that, in response to spring viremia of carp virus (SVCV) and poly (I:C) stimuli, the increase of 3nMDA5 mRNA level was obviously higher than those of 2nMDA5 and 4nMDA5. Interestingly, the reporter assay and plaque assay revealed collectively that 3nMDA5-b, a shorter splicing form of MDA5, exhibited the strongest IFN promoter-inducing ability and antiviral activity. Additionally, when co-expressed with 3nMAVS, 3nMDA5-b induced a considerably higher level of IFN promoter activation than 3nMDA5-a; and the interactions between 3nMAVS/3nMDA5-a and 3nMAVS/3nMDA5-b were verified by co-IP assay. Taken together, our findings support the conclusion that in triploid fish, 3nMDA5-b mediates a robust antiviral signaling in host innate immune response.

Abstract
Histone H2A is a nuclear molecule tightly associated in the form of the nucleosome. Our previous studies have demonstrated the antibacterial property of piscine H2A variants against gram-negative bacteria Edwardsiella piscicida and Gram-positive bacteria Streptococcus agalactiae. In this study, we show the function and mechanism of piscine H2A in the negative regulation of RLR signaling pathway and host innate immune response against spring viremia of carp virus (SVCV) infection. SVCV infection significantly inhibits the expression of histone H2A during an early stage of infection, but induces the expression of histone H2A during the late stage of infection such as at 48 and 72 hpi. Under normal physiological conditions, histone H2A is nuclear-localized. However, SVCV infection promotes the migration of histone H2A from the nucleus to the cytoplasm. The in vivo studies revealed that histone H2A overexpression led to the increased expression of SVCV gene and decreased survival rate. The overexpression of histone H2A also significantly impaired the expression levels of those genes involved in RLR antiviral signaling pathway. Furthermore, histone H2A targeted TBK1 and IRF3 to promote their protein degradation via the lysosomal pathway and impair the formation of TBK1-IRF3 functional complex. Importantly, histone H2A completely abolished TBK1-mediated antiviral activity and enormously impaired the protein expression of IRF3, especially nuclear IRF3. Further analysis demonstrated that the inhibition of histone H2A nuclear/cytoplasmic trafficking could relieve the protein degradation of TBK1 and IRF3, and blocked the negative regulation of histone H2A on the SVCV infection. Collectively, our results suggest that histone H2A nuclear/cytoplasmic trafficking is essential for negative regulation of RLR signaling pathway and antiviral immune response in response to SVCV infection.

Abstract
1. NOD1 is a significant member of the NOD-like receptor (NLR) family. Its main role is to identify microorganisms that invade the body, transmit immune signals and regulate innate immune responses. However, the expression and role of the NOD1 in immune defence against infection in geese remain unknown.2. The RT-PCR method and rapid amplification of cDNA ends (RACE) was used to obtain the full-length goose NOD1 (gNOD1) cDNA series. The cDNA for gNOD1 contains 2856-bp nucleotides, i.e. 47-bp 5' UTR, 135-bp 3' UTR, and 1275-bp ORF region, and encodes a 951-amino-acids (AAs) polypeptide chain. The nucleotide sequence of gNOD1 was found more than 90% similar to its homologs from other avian organisms.3. The qRT-PCR results showed that gNOD1 mRNA was widely distributed in different tissues, but highly expressed in liver, spleen, lung and caecum tissues.4. Following stimulation of goose embryo fibroblasts (GEFs) with lipopolysaccharide (LPS) and polyriboinosinic polyribocytidylic acid (poly(I:C)), the expression of gNOD1 and cytokines, such as IL-1β, IL-6, IL-18, and TNF-α, changed with the response-efficacy correlation at 24 and 48 h post-infection (hpi).5. When the goslings were challenged with Salmonella entertidis (SE) and LPS, the expression of gNOD1 was up-regulated at 3 and 6 hpi in the spleen and caecum tissues, respectively. However, after SE infection, the expression level of gNOD1 fluctuated, while in the LPS group, gNOD1 mRNA increased immediately at a peak time of 6 hpi and then steadily declined. These results indicated that NOD1 was associated with the potency to resist bacterial and viral infections in the goose, both in vivo and in vitro.

Abstract
IFN-β is a unique member of type I IFN in humans and contains four positive regulatory domains (PRDs), I-II-III-IV, in its promoter, which are docking sites for transcription factors IFN regulatory factor (IRF) 3/7, NF-κB, IRF3/7, and activating transcription factor 2/Jun proto-oncogene, respectively. In chicken IFN-β and zebrafish IFNφ1 promoters, a conserved PRD or PRD-like sequences have been reported. In this study, a type I IFN gene, named as xl-IFN1 in the amphibian model Xenopus laevis, was found to contain similar PRD-like sites, IV-III/I-II, in its promoter, and these PRD-like sites were proved to be functionally responsive to activating transcription factor 2/Jun proto-oncogene, IRF3/IRF7, and p65, respectively. The xl-IFN1, as IFNφ1 in zebrafish, was transcribed into a long and a short transcript, with the long transcript containing all of the transcriptional elements, including PRD-like sites and TATA box in its proximal promoter. A retroposition model was then proposed to explain the transcriptional conservation of IFNφ1, xl-IFN1, and IFN-β in chicken and humans.

Abstract
Cell death is an essential immunological apparatus of host defense, but dysregulation of mutually inclusive cell deaths poses severe threats during microbial and parasitic infections leading to deleterious consequences in the pathological progression of infectious diseases. Nucleotide-binding oligomerization domain (NOD)-Leucine-rich repeats (LRR)-containing receptors (NLRs), also called nucleotide-binding oligomerization (NOD)-like receptors (NLRs), are major cytosolic pattern recognition receptors (PRRs), their involvement in the orchestration of innate immunity and host defense against bacteria, viruses, fungi and parasites, often results in the cleavage of gasdermin and the release of IL-1β and IL-18, should be tightly regulated. NLRs are functionally diverse and tissue-specific PRRs expressed by both immune and non-immune cells. Beyond the inflammasome activation, NLRs are also involved in NF-κB and MAPK activation signaling, the regulation of type I IFN (IFN-I) production and the inflammatory cell death during microbial infections. Recent advancements of NLRs biology revealed its possible interplay with pyroptotic cell death and inflammatory mediators, such as caspase 1, caspase 11, IFN-I and GSDMD. This review provides the most updated information that caspase 8 skews the NLRP3 inflammasome activation in PANoptosis during pathogen infection. We also update multidimensional roles of NLRP12 in regulating innate immunity in a content-dependent manner: novel interference of NLRP12 on TLRs and NOD derived-signaling cascade, and the recently unveiled regulatory property of NLRP12 in production of type I IFN. Future prospects of exploring NLRs in controlling cell death during parasitic and microbial infection were highlighted.

Abstract
Pattern recognition receptors (PRRs) are a class of immune sensors that play crucial roles in detecting and responding to the conserved patterns of microorganisms. To date, many PRRs, such as TLRs, RLRs and NLRs, as well as their downstream molecules have been identified and characterized in teleost, while their ligands and immunoregulatory mechanisms remain largely unknown. In the present review, we described and discussed the main members of TLR/RLR/NLR families, including their expression profiles, signaling transductions and functions in teleost. And some splicing isoforms from TLR/RLR/NLR families were also addressed, which play synergistic and/or antagonistic roles in response to pathogen infections in teleost. TLRs sense different pathogens by forming homodimer and/or heterodimer. Beyond, functions of TLRs can also be affected by migrating. And some endolysosomal TLRs undergo proteolytic cleavage and in a pH-dependent mechanism to attain a mature functional form that mediate ligand recognition and downstream signaling. Until now, more than 80 members in TLR/RLR/NLR families have been identified in teleost, while only TLR5, TLR9, TLR19, TLR21, TLR22, MDA5, LGP2, NOD1 and NOD2 have direct evidence of ligand recognition in teleost. Meanwhile, new ligands as well as signaling pathways do occur during evolution of teleost. This review summarizes progresses on the TLRs/RLRs/NLRs in teleost. We attempt to insight into the ligands recognition and signaling transmission of TLRs/RLRs/NLRs in teleost.

Abstract
Nucleotide-binding oligomerization domain 1 (NOD1), a pattern recognition receptor (PRR) that detects bacterial peptidoglycan fragments and other danger signals, has been linked to inflammatory pathologies. NOD1, which is expressed by immune and non-immune cells, is activated after recognizing microbe-associated molecular patterns (MAMPs). This recognition triggers host defense responses and both immune memory and tolerance can also be achieved during these processes. Since the gut microbiota is currently considered a master regulator of human physiology central in health and disease and the intestine metabolizes a wide range of nutrients, drugs and hormones, it is a fact that dysbiosis can alter tissues and organs homeostasis. These systemic alterations occur in response to gastrointestinal immune adaptations that are not yet fully understood. Even if previous evidence confirms the connection between the microbiota, the immune system and metabolic disorders, much remains to be discovered about the contribution of NOD1 to low-grade inflammatory pathologies such as obesity, diabetes and cardiovascular diseases. This review compiles the most recent findings in this area, while providing a dynamic and practical framework with future approaches for research and clinical applications on targeting NOD1. This knowledge can help to rate the consequences of the disease and to stratify the patients for therapeutic interventions.

Correlation studies about NOD1 and histones have not been reported. In the present study, we report the functional correlation between NOD1 and the histone H2A variant in response to Streptococcus agalactiae infection. In zebrafish, NOD1 deficiency significantly promoted S. agalactiae proliferation and decreased larval survival. Transcriptome analysis revealed that the significantly enriched pathways in NOD1−/− adult zebrafish were mainly involved in immune and metabolism. Among 719 immunity-associated DEGs at 48 hpi, 74 DEGs regulated by NOD1 deficiency were histone variants. Weighted gene co-expression network analysis identified that H2A, H2B, and H3 had significant associations with NOD1 deficiency. Above all, S. agalactiae infection could induce the expression of intracellular histone H2A, as well as NOD1 colocalized with histone H2A, both in the cytoplasm and cell nucleus in the case of S. agalactiae infection. The overexpression of H2A variants such as zfH2A-6 protected against S. agalactiae infection and could improve cell survival in NOD1-deficient cells. Furthermore, NOD1 could interact with zfH2A-6 and cooperate with zfH2A-6 to inhibit the proliferation of S. agalactiae. NOD1 also showed a synergetic effect in inducing the expression of many antibacterial genes, especially antibacterial pattern recognition receptors PGRP2, PGRP5, and PGRP6. Collectively, these results firstly highlight the roles of NOD1 deficiency in the regulation of immune-related and metabolic pathways, and the correlation between zebrafish NOD1 and histone H2A variant in the defense against S. agalactiae infection.

Abstract
Human cells respond to infection by SARS-CoV-2, the virus that causes COVID-19, by producing cytokines including type I and III interferons (IFNs) and proinflammatory factors such as IL6 and TNF. IFNs can limit SARS-CoV-2 replication but cytokine imbalance contributes to severe COVID-19. We studied how cells detect SARS-CoV-2 infection. We report that the cytosolic RNA sensor MDA5 was required for type I and III IFN induction in the lung cancer cell line Calu-3 upon SARS-CoV-2 infection. Type I and III IFN induction further required MAVS and IRF3. In contrast, induction of IL6 and TNF was independent of the MDA5-MAVS-IRF3 axis in this setting. We further found that SARS-CoV-2 infection inhibited the ability of cells to respond to IFNs. In sum, we identified MDA5 as a cellular sensor for SARS-CoV-2 infection that induced type I and III IFNs.

Abstract
G protein-coupled bile acids receptor 1 (GPBAR1 or TGR5) has been widely studied as a metabolic regulator involved in bile acids synthesis, glucose metabolism and energy homeostasis. Several recent studies have shown that mammalian GPBAR1 is also involved in antiviral innate immune responses. However, the functions of piscine GPBAR1 in antibacterial or antiviral immune responses and lipid metabolism remain unclear. In the present study, we report the functional characterization of zebrafish gpbar1. Similar to mammalian GPBAR1, zebrafish gpbar1 contains similar domain composition, shows a dose-dependent activation by bile acids including INT777, LCA, DCA, CDCA and CA, and can be induced by viral infection. Compared with corresponding control groups, a significant antiviral activity against spring viremia of carp virus (SVCV) infection was observed in ZF4 cells overexpressing zebrafish gpbar1 with INT777 treatment, but not in ZF4 cells overexpressing zebrafish gpbar1 without INT777 treatment. The activation of zebrafish gpbar1 had no significant antibacterial effect against Edwardsiella piscicida infection in ZF4 cells in vitro. Transcriptome analysis revealed that zebrafish gpbar1 activation played a crucial role in activating RLR signaling pathway and inducing the production of ISGs, but not for bile acid biosynthesis and transportation. The co-occurrence analysis for antiviral-related and bile acids metabolism-related DEGs suggested a strong interaction among 2 bile acid receptors (gpbar1 and nr1h4), slco2b1 and the antiviral DEGs. The lipidomic analysis showed that zebrafish gpbar1 activation in ZF4 cells resulted a change of glycerophospholipids, but none of bile acids nor their derivatives, which were different from mammalian GPBAR1. All together, these results firstly demonstrate the conserved antiviral role of gpbar1 and its function in regulating glycerophospholipids metabolism in teleost.

Abstract
Increasing evidence shows that the long noncoding RNA (lncRNA) is a major regulator and participates in the regulation of various physiological and pathological processes, such as cell proliferation, differentiation, metastasis, and apoptosis. Unlike mammals, however, the study of lncRNA in lower invertebrates is just beginning and the extent of lncRNA-mediate regulation remains unclear. Here, we for the first time identify an lncRNA, termed nucleotide oligomerization domain 1 (NOD1) antibacterial and antiviral-related lncRNA (NARL), as a key regulator for innate immunity in teleost fish. We found that NOD1 plays an important role in the antibacterial and antiviral process in fish and that the microRNA miR-217-5p inhibits NOD1 expression and thus weakens the NF-κB and the IRF3-driven signaling pathway. Furthermore, our results indicated that NARL functions as a competing endogenous RNA (ceRNA) for miR-217-5p to regulate protein abundance of NOD1; thus, invading microorganisms are eliminated and immune responses are promoted. Our study also demonstrates the regulation mechanism that lncRNA NARL can competitive adsorption miR-217-5p to regulate the miR-217-5p/NOD1 axis is widespread in teleost fish. Taken together, our results reveal that NARL in fish is a critical positive regulator of innate immune responses to viral and bacterial infection by suppressing a feedback to NOD1-NF-κB/IRF3-mediated signaling.

Abstract
Type I interferon signaling contributes to the development of innate and adaptive immune responses to either viruses, fungi, or bacteria. However, amplitude and timing of the interferon response is of utmost importance for preventing an underwhelming outcome, or tissue damage. While several pathogens evolved strategies for disturbing the quality of interferon signaling, there is growing evidence that this pathway can be regulated by several members of the Nod-like receptor (NLR) family, although the precise mechanism for most of these remains elusive. NLRs consist of a family of about 20 proteins in mammals, which are capable of sensing microbial products as well as endogenous signals related to tissue injury. Here we provide an overview of our current understanding of the function of those NLRs in type I interferon responses with a focus on viral infections. We discuss how NLR-mediated type I interferon regulation can influence the development of auto-immunity and the immune response to infection.

Abstract
Recent studies have profiled the innate immune signatures in patients infected with severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) and suggest that cellular responses to viral challenge may affect disease severity. Yet the molecular events that underlie cellular recognition and response to SARS-CoV-2 infection remain to be elucidated. Here, we find that SARS-CoV-2 replication induces a delayed interferon (IFN) response in lung epithelial cells. By screening 16 putative sensors involved in sensing of RNA virus infection, we found that MDA5 and LGP2 primarily regulate IFN induction in response to SARS-CoV-2 infection. Further analyses revealed that viral intermediates specifically activate the IFN response through MDA5-mediated sensing. Additionally, we find that IRF3, IRF5, and NF-κB/p65 are the key transcription factors regulating the IFN response during SARS-CoV-2 infection. In summary, these findings provide critical insights into the molecular basis of the innate immune recognition and signaling response to SARS-CoV-2.

Abstract
Both NLRC3 and NOD1 belong to regulatory NLR subfamily based on their best-characterized function. In mammals, NLRC3 was reported to function by attenuating signaling cascades initiated by other families of PRRs. In teleosts, multiple NLRC3-like genes were identified through transcriptome sequencing. However, the functions of many NLRC3-like genes, especially the fish-specific NLRC3-like genes, remain unclear. In the present study, we report the functional characterization of a novel category of NLRC3-like proteins (named as NLRC3-like 1) from the zebrafish, which consists of a fish-specific FISNA, a conserved NACHT and five C-terminal LRRs domains. The expression of zebrafish NLRC3-like 1 was inducible in response to Edwardsiella piscicida infection. During bacterial infection, the in vitro and in vivo studies revealed that zebrafish NLRC3-like 1 overexpression facilitated bacterial growth and dissemination, together with the decreased survival rate of zebrafish larvae infected with E. piscicida. The attenuated response by zebrafish NLRC3-like 1 in response to bacterial infection were characterized by the impaired expression of antibacterial genes, proinflammatory cytokines and Nox genes. Furthermore, zebrafish NLRC3-like 1 interacted with the adaptor protein RIPK2 of NODs signaling via the FISNA (Fish-specific NACHT associated domain) and NACHT domains. However, the interaction between zebrafish NLRC3-like 1 and RIPK2 inhibited the assembly of the NOD1-RIPK2 complex. Importantly, zebrafish NLRC3-like 1 inhibited NOD1-mediated antibacterial activity, NF-κB and MAPK pathways and proinflammatory cytokine production. All together, these results firstly demonstrate that zebrafish NLRC3-like 1 inhibits NOD1-RIPK2 antibacterial pathway via targeting the adaptor protein RIPK2.

Abstract
TANK-binding kinase 1 (TBK1), an IKK-related serine/threonine kinase, is pivotal for the induction of antiviral type I interferon (IFN) by TLR and RLR signaling pathways. In a previous study, we demonstrated that TBK1 spliced isoforms (TBK1_tv1 and TBK1_tv2) from zebrafish were dominant negative regulators in the RLR antiviral pathway by targeting the functional TBK1–IRF3 complex formation. In this study, we show that the third TBK1 isoform (namely TBK1_tv3) inhibits zebrafish type I IFN production by promoting TBK1 and IRF3 degradation. First, ectopic expression of TBK1_tv3 suppresses poly(I:C)- and Spring viremia of carp virus-induced type I IFN response, and also inhibits the up-regulation of IFN promoter activities stimulated by RIG-I, MDA5, MAVS, TBK1, and IRF3. Second, TBK1_tv3 targets TBK1 and IRF3 to impair the formation of TBK1 dimer, TBK1–IRF3 complex, and IRF3 dimer. Notably, TBK1_tv3 promotes the degradation of TBK1 through the ubiquitin–proteasome pathway and the degradation of IRF3 through the lysosomal pathway. Further analysis demonstrates that TBK1_tv3 promotes the degradation of TBK1 for K48-linked ubiquitination by targeting the K251, K256, and K271 sites of TBK1. Collectively, our results suggest a novel TBK1 isoform-mediated negative regulation mechanism, which serves to balance the production of type I IFN and ISGs.

Abstract
It has been long recognized that NOD1 and NOD2 are critical players in the host immune response, primarily by their sensing bacterial peptidoglycan-conserved motifs. Significant advances have been made from efforts that characterize their upstream activators, assembly of signaling complexes, and activation of downstream signaling pathways. Disruption in NOD1 and NOD2 signaling has also been associated with impaired host defense and resistance to the development of inflammatory diseases. In this review, we will describe how NOD1 and NOD2 sense microbes and cellular stress to regulate host responses that can affect disease pathogenesis and outcomes.
