项目摘要

DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): Although they reside in different cell types, all herpes viruses can enter a state of quiescence termed latency. When these viruses are latent, they are resistant to antiviral therapies that attack replicating viruses. As a result, existing drugs treat symptoms of active infections, but do not clear latent virus, and, therefore, do not cure herpes virus infections. Consequently, it is critically important to advance our understanding of the mechanisms underlying latency; indeed, this is one of the major outstanding questions in our field. Human cytomegalovirus (HCMV) resides in a latent state in cells of the myeloid lineage. Although the virus likely reactivates frequently from latency, it is readily controlled with no known consequences to healthy people. However, reactivation can cause severe morbidity and mortality when it re-emerges from latency in people with compromised or immature immune systems. Thus, it is critical to develop the ability to control and eventually eradicate latent virus, and this capability will come from a deeper understanding of latency. My long term objective is to employ a validated cell culture model of latency -- peripheral blood monocytes -- to investigate the molecular mechanisms underlying the initiation, maintenance and exit from latency. We will carry out our investigations primarily with clinical isolates of HCMV; and our technical approach will combine genetics, molecular biology and proteomics. My specific aims are designed to employ our cell culture model of latency to (i) investigate the effect of cell phenotype on HCMV latency; (ii) study the role of viral protein-coding genes with the potential to function during latency; and (iii) test the hypothesis that viral and/or cell-coded miRNAs function in HCMV latency. This is an opportune time to study HCMV latency, because we now appreciate many of the critical differences between clinical versus laboratory isolates of the virus that cause them to behave differently in experimental infections, experimental systems have been developed to investigate latency in cultured cells, and new biological components likely to play important roles in latency have been recently identified. PUBLIC HEALTH RELEVANCE: Human cytomegalovirus, like other herpes viruses, can enter a state of quiescence or latency. As a consequence, drugs that treat symptoms of active infections, do not clear latent virus and do not cure cytomegalovirus infections. It is critically important to advance our understanding of the mechanisms underlying latency so that new, more efficacious therapies can be developed.
描述(申请人提供):尽管它们驻留在不同的细胞类型中,但所有的疱疹病毒都会进入一种称为潜伏期的静止状态。当这些病毒处于潜伏状态时,它们对攻击复制病毒的抗病毒疗法具有抵抗力。因此,现有药物治疗活动性感染的症状,但不清除潜伏病毒,因此不能治愈疱疹病毒感染。因此,至关重要的是增进我们对潜伏期机制的理解;事实上,这是我们领域的主要悬而未决的问题之一。人巨细胞病毒(HCMV)以潜伏状态存在于髓系细胞中。尽管该病毒可能经常从潜伏期重新激活,但它很容易得到控制,对健康的人没有已知的后果。然而,在免疫系统受损或不成熟的人中,当重新激活从潜伏期重新出现时,可能会导致严重的发病率和死亡率。因此,发展控制并最终根除潜伏病毒的能力至关重要,而这种能力将来自对潜伏病毒的更深层次的了解。我的长期目标是使用一种有效的潜伏期细胞培养模型--外周血单核细胞--来研究潜伏期的启动、维持和退出的分子机制。我们将主要对HCMV的临床分离株进行研究;我们的技术方法将结合遗传学、分子生物学和蛋白质组学。我的具体目的是利用我们的潜伏期细胞培养模型来(I)研究细胞表型对HCMV潜伏期的影响;(Ii)研究病毒蛋白编码基因在潜伏期中的作用;以及(Iii)检验病毒和/或细胞编码的miRNAs在HCMV潜伏期中发挥作用的假设。现在是研究HCMV潜伏期的好时机,因为我们现在认识到临床分离株和实验室分离株之间的许多关键差异,这些差异导致它们在实验感染中表现不同,已经开发了实验系统来研究培养细胞中的潜伏期,最近发现了可能在潜伏期中发挥重要作用的新的生物成分。 与公共卫生相关:人类巨细胞病毒和其他疱疹病毒一样,可以进入静止或潜伏状态。因此,治疗活动性感染症状的药物不能清除潜伏病毒,也不能治愈巨细胞病毒感染。提高我们对潜伏期潜在机制的理解至关重要,这样才能开发出新的、更有效的治疗方法。
