Unpredictable influenza pandemics, annual epidemics, and sporadic poultry-to-human avian influenza virus infections with high morbidity and mortality rates dictate a need to develop new antiviral approaches. Targeting cellular pathways and processes is a promising antiviral strategy shown to be effective regardless of viral subtypes or viral evolution of drug-resistant variants. Proteomics-based searches provide a tool to reveal the druggable stages of the virus life cycle and to understand the putative antiviral mode of action of the drug(s). Ribonucleases (RNases) of different origins not only demonstrate antiviral effects that are mediated by the direct RNase action on viral and cellular RNAs but can also exert their impact by signal transduction modulation. To our knowledge, studies of the RNase-affected cell proteome have not yet been performed. To reveal cellular targets and explain the mechanisms underlying the antiviral effect employed by the small extra-cellular ribonuclease of (binase) both in vitro and in vivo, qualitative shotgun and quantitative targeted proteomic analyses of the influenza A virus (IAV) H1N1pdm09-infected A549 cells upon binase treatment were performed. We compared proteomes of mock-treated, binase-treated, virus-infected, and virus-infected binase-treated cells to determine the proteins affected by IAV and/or binase. In general, IAV demonstrated a downregulating strategy towards cellular proteins, while binase had an upregulating effect. With the help of bioinformatics approaches, coregulated cellular protein sets were defined and assigned to their biological function; a possible interconnection with the progression of viral infection was conferred. Most of the proteins downregulated by IAV (e.g., AKR1B1, AKR1C1, CCL5, PFN1, RAN, S100A4, etc.) belong to the processes of cellular metabolism, response to stimulus, biological regulation, and cellular localization. Upregulated proteins upon the binase treatment (e.g., AKR1B10, CAP1, HNRNPA2B1, PFN1, PPIA, YWHAB, etc.) are united by the processes of biological regulation, cellular localization, and immune and metabolic processes. The antiviral activity of binase against IAV was expressed by the inversion of virus-induced proteomic changes, resulting in the inhibition of virus-associated processes, including nuclear ribonucleoprotein export (NCL, NPM1, Nup205, and Bax proteins involved) and cytoskeleton remodeling (RDX, PFN1, and TUBB) induced by IAV at the middle stage of single-cycle infection in A549 cells. Modulation of the immune response could be involved as well. Overall, it seems possible that binase exerts its antiviral effects in multiple ways.
不可预测的流感大流行、季节性流行以及偶发的禽类至人类的禽流感病毒感染,其发病率和死亡率都很高,这促使我们需要开发新的抗病毒方法。靶向细胞途径和过程是一种有前途的抗病毒策略,已被证明无论病毒亚型如何,或病毒对药物耐药变体的进化如何,该策略都有效。基于蛋白质组学的搜索提供了一种揭示病毒生命周期中可成药阶段的工具,并有助于了解药物的潜在抗病毒作用模式。不同来源的核糖核酸酶 (RNases) 不仅表现出通过对病毒和细胞 RNA 的直接 RNase 作用介导的抗病毒作用,而且还可以通过信号转导调节发挥其作用。据我们所知,尚未对受 RNase 影响的细胞蛋白质组进行研究。为了揭示细胞靶标并解释小细胞外核糖核酸酶 (binase) 在体外和体内发挥抗病毒作用的机制,我们对甲型流感病毒 (IAV) H1N1pdm09 感染的 A549 细胞进行了 binase 处理后的定性鸟枪法和定量靶向蛋白质组学分析。我们将 mock 处理、binase 处理、病毒感染和病毒感染 binase 处理的细胞的蛋白质组进行了比较,以确定受 IAV 和/或 binase 影响的蛋白质。一般来说,IAV 对细胞蛋白表现出下调策略,而 binase 则具有上调作用。借助于生物信息学方法,定义了受调控的细胞蛋白集,并将其分配到其生物学功能中;赋予了它们与病毒感染进展相关联的可能性。IAV 下调的大多数蛋白质(例如 AKR1B1、AKR1C1、CCL5、PFN1、RAN、S100A4 等)属于细胞代谢、对刺激的反应、生物调节和细胞定位过程。binase 处理后上调的蛋白质(例如 AKR1B10、CAP1、HNRNPA2B1、PFN1、PPIA、YWHAB 等)通过生物调节、细胞定位以及免疫和代谢过程联合在一起。binase 对 IAV 的抗病毒活性通过反转病毒诱导的蛋白质组变化来表达,从而抑制病毒相关过程,包括核核糖核蛋白输出(涉及 NCL、NPM1、Nup205 和 Bax 蛋白)和细胞骨架重塑(IAV 在 A549 细胞的单周期感染的中期诱导 RDX、PFN1 和 TUBB)。免疫反应的调节也可能涉及其中。总体而言,binase 似乎可以通过多种方式发挥其抗病毒作用。
