Abstract

The contributions of the viral component of the microbiome-the virome-to the development of innate and adaptive immunity are largely unknown. Here, we systematically defined the host response in mice to a panel of eukaryotic enteric viruses representing six different families. Infections with most of these viruses were asymptomatic in the mice, the magnitude and duration of which was dependent on the microbiota. Flow cytometric and transcriptional profiling of mice mono-associated with these viruses unveiled general adaptations by the host, such as lymphocyte differentiation and IL-22 signatures in the intestine, as well as numerous viral-strain-specific responses that persisted. Comparison with a dataset derived from analogous bacterial mono-association in mice identified bacterial species that evoke an immune response comparable with the viruses we examined. These results expand an understanding of the immune space occupied by the enteric virome and underscore the importance of viral exposure events VSports手机版. .

Figure 1.. Colonization and Bacterial Dependence of Enteric Viruses Following the Natural Route of Infection
(A-B) Stool (A) and blood (B) collected over time from conventional (black) and GF mice (colored) inoculated with indicated viruses. Viral titers were quantified by plaque assay or qPCR. Symbols indicate individual samples. Lines pass through the mean at each timepoint. Shadowed areas indicate SEM. Gray areas indicate limit of detection. N = 4–8 mice per condition, combined from two independent experiments. (C) Neutralizing antibodies in sera of mice 28 days post-inoculation (dpi) with RRV quantified by a plaque-reduction neutralization assay. Reduction in plaque-forming units (PFU) shown as percent relative to control sera from naïve conventional mice. Results are from 3–9 mice from three independent experiments. n.d.: not determined. See also Figure S1 and Table S1.

Gray: FDR>0.1. Bar graph on top represents the proportion of immune populations with an FDR<0.1 and a fold change>1.5. (B-E) Fold changes of CD62L+CD44− (B), CD62L−CD44+ (C), T-bet+ (D), and pDCs (E) in the cLP CD4+ (B-D), CD8+ (B-C), or CD45+ (E) populations. Each dot represents a single sample. (F-G) Percentage of Foxp3+ cells in the cLP (F) or siLP (G) CD4+ populations. Each dot represents a single sample. (H-I) Hierarchical clustering based on cLP (H) and siLP (I) population frequencies. (J-K) Effect size determined by db-RDA of viral characteristics: identity, genome, persistence, and viremia as explanatory variables of the cLP (J) and siLP (K) population frequency variance. Pie charts represent combined effect size of genome, persistence, and viremia. Statistical significance was calculated by one-way ANOVA followed by Dunn’s post-hoc analysis and corrected for multiple testing by the Benjamini-Hochberg procedure (A-E) or by non-parametric Mann-Whitney test (F-G).
