    Abstract: Infections with rhinovirus (RV) cause asthma exacerbations. Recent studies suggest that macrophages play a role in asthmatic airway inflammation and the innate immune response to RV infection. Macrophages exhibit phenotypes based on surface markers and gene expression. We hypothesized that macrophage polarization state alters gene expression in response to RV infection. Cells were derived from human peripheral blood derived monocytes. M1 and M2 polarization was carried out by using IFN-γ and IL-4, respectively, and RNA was extracted for Affymetrix Human Gene ST2.1 exon arrays. Selected genes were validated by quantitative (q)PCR. Treatment of nonactivated (M0) macrophages with IFN-γ and IL-4 induced the expression of 252 and 153 distinct genes, respectively, including previously-identified M1 and M2 markers. RV infection of M0 macrophages induced upregulation of 232 genes; pathway analysis showed significant overrepresentation of genes involved in IFN-α/β signaling and cytokine signaling in the immune system. RV infection induced differential expression of 195 distinct genes in M1-like macrophages but only seven distinct genes in M2-like-polarized cells. In a secondary analysis, comparison between M0-, RV-infected, and M1-like-polarized, RV-infected macrophages revealed differential expression of 227 genes including those associated with asthma and its exacerbation. qPCR demonstrated increased expression of CCL8, CXCL10, TNFSF10, TNFSF18, IL6, NOD2, and GSDMD and reduced expression of VNN1, AGO1, and AGO2. Together, these data show that, in contrast to M2-like-polarized macrophages, gene expression of M1-like macrophages is highly regulated by RV.

    Abstract: Asthma exacerbations are often caused by rhinovirus (RV). We and others have shown that Toll-like receptor 2 (TLR2), a membrane surface receptor that recognizes bacterial lipopeptides and lipoteichoic acid, is required and sufficient for RV-induced proinflammatory responses in vitro and in vivo. We hypothesized that viral protein-4 (VP4), an internal capsid protein that is myristoylated upon viral replication and externalized upon viral binding, is a ligand for TLR2. Recombinant VP4 and myristoylated VP4 (MyrVP4) were purified by Ni-affinity chromatography. MyrVP4 was also purified from RV-A1B-infected HeLa cells by urea solubilization and anti-VP4 affinity chromatography. Finally, synthetic MyrVP4 was produced by chemical peptide synthesis. MyrVP4-TLR2 interactions were assessed by confocal fluorescence microscopy, fluorescence resonance energy transfer (FRET), and monitoring VP4-induced cytokine mRNA expression in the presence of anti-TLR2 and anti-VP4. MyrVP4 and TLR2 colocalized in TLR2-expressing HEK-293 cells, mouse bone marrow-derived macrophages, human bronchoalveolar macrophages, and human airway epithelial cells. Colocalization was absent in TLR2-null HEK-293 cells and blocked by anti-TLR2 and anti-VP4. Cy3-labeled MyrVP4 and Cy5-labeled anti-TLR2 showed an average fractional FRET efficiency of 0.24 ± 0.05, and Cy5-labeled anti-TLR2 increased and unlabeled MyrVP4 decreased FRET efficiency. MyrVP4-induced chemokine mRNA expression was higher than that elicited by VP4 alone and was attenuated by anti-TLR2 and anti-VP4. Cytokine expression was similarly increased by MyrVP4 purified from RV-infected HeLa cells and synthetic MyrVP4. We conclude that, during RV infection, MyrVP4 and TLR2 interact to generate a proinflammatory response.

    Abstract: Early-life wheezing-associated respiratory tract infection by rhinovirus (RV) is considered a risk factor for asthma development. We have shown that RV infection of 6-day-old BALB/c mice, but not mature mice, induces an asthmalike phenotype that is associated with an increase in the population of type 2 innate lymphoid cells (ILC2s) and dependent on IL-13 and IL-25. We hypothesize that ILC2s are required and sufficient for development of the asthmalike phenotype in immature mice. Mice were infected with RV1B on day 6 of life and treated with vehicle or a chemical inhibitor of retinoic acid receptor-related orphan receptor-α (RORα), SR3335 (15 mg·kg −1 ·day −1 ip for 7 days). We also infected Rora sg/sg mice without functional ILC2s. ILC2s were identified as negative for lineage markers and positive for cluster of differentiation 25 (CD25)/IL-2Rα and CD127/IL-7Rα. Effects of SR3335 on proliferation and function of cultured ILC2s were determined. Finally, sorted ILC2s were transferred into naïve mice, and lungs were harvested 14 days later for assessment of gene expression and histology. SR3335 decreased the number of RV-induced lung lineage-negative, CD25 + , CD127 + ILC2s in immature mice. SR3335 also attenuated lung mRNA expression of IL-13, Muc5ac, and Gob5 as well as mucous metaplasia. We also found reduced expansion of ILC2s in RV-infected Rora sg/sg mice. SR3335 also blocked IL-25 and IL-33-induced ILC2 proliferation and IL-13 production ex vivo. Finally, adoptive transfer of ILC2s led to development of asthmalike phenotype in immature and adult mice. RORα-dependent ILC2s are required and sufficient for type 2 cytokine expression and mucous metaplasia in immature mice.
