Varicella-zoster virus (VZV) and herpes simplex virus (HSV) are prevalent neurotropic herpesviruses that cause various nervous system diseases. Similar to other enveloped viruses, membrane fusion is an essential process for viral entry. Therefore, identification of host molecules that mediate membrane fusion is important to understand the mechanism of viral infection. Here, we demonstrate that myelin-associated glycoprotein (MAG), mainly distributed in neural tissues, associates with VZV glycoprotein B (gB) and promotes cell-cell fusion when coexpressed with VZV gB and gH/gL. VZV preferentially infected MAG-transfected oligodendroglial cells. MAG also associated with HSV-1 gB and enhanced HSV-1 infection of promyelocytes. These findings suggested that MAG is involved in VZV and HSV infection of neural tissues.

Endothelial expression of human amyloid precursor protein leads to amyloid β in the blood and induces cerebral amyloid angiopathy in knock-in mice

Summary: The deposition of amyloid P in blood vessels of the brain is commonly observed in Alzheimer's disease patients. However, it is difficult to examine the contribution of cerebral amyloid angiopathy (CAA) to the pathogenesis of Alzheimer's disease in mouse models. Based on biochemical analyses, the researchers hypothesized that endothelial APP expression would be lower in rodents and subsequently generated mice that express human WT APP in endothelial cells. The mice showed increased levels of serum A beta and soluble APP, indicating the crucial role of endothelial APP in blood A beta levels. Crossing these mice with a specific APP knock-in mouse model led to an expanded CAA pathology.

Metalloproteinase-Dependent and TMPRSS2-Independent Cell Surface Entry Pathway of SARS-CoV-2 Requires the Furin Cleavage Site and the S2 Domain of Spike Protein

Mizuki Yamamoto, Jin Gohda, Ayako Kobayashi, Keiko Tomita, Youko Hirayama, Naohiko Koshikawa, Motoharu Seiki, Kentaro Semba, Tetsu Akiyama, Yasushi Kawaguchi, Jun-ichiro Inoue

Summary: The study found that the cell surface entry pathway of SARS-CoV-2 includes a metalloproteinase-mediated pathway in addition to the TMPRSS2 and endosomal pathways. The metalloproteinase-mediated pathway requires prior cleavage of the spike protein into two domains, a condition met by SARS-CoV-2 but not by the related human coronavirus SARS-CoV. Additionally, inhibiting metalloproteins was crucial in preventing cell death, which may lead to organ damage. The findings provide new insights into the unique pathogenesis of COVID-19 and are relevant to the development of effective therapies.

Summary: Parkinson's disease (PD) is a neurodegenerative disorder characterized by the accumulation of a-synuclein aggregates. This study identified a new function of HLA class II in transporting a-synuclein outside of cells. Different HLA-DR alleles had varying degrees of translocation of a-synuclein to the cell surface and extracellular vesicles. The findings suggest a potential link between the PD-risk gene HLA-DR and a-synuclein.

Establishment of a system to quantify wild-type herpes simplex virus-induced cell-cell fusion reveals a role of N-glycosylation of HSV-1 envelope glycoprotein B in cell-cell fusion

Summary: In this study, a system was established to measure the frequency of cell-cell fusion induced by wild-type herpes simplex virus (HSV) strains. It was found that the HSV-1 envelope glycoprotein B and its N-glycosylation at asparagine at position 141 were necessary for efficient cell-cell fusion. This study provides insight into the connection between wild-type HSV-1-induced cell-cell fusion and viral pathogenesis in vivo.

Rheumatoid factor recognizes specific domains of the IgG heavy chain complexed with HLA class II molecules

Summary: This study found that the heavy chain of IgG (IgGH) recognizes the RA-susceptible HLA class II molecule complex through RF. Various types of IgGH segments were synthesized and transfected into human embryonic kidney 293T cells to examine their surface expression and RF recognition. The results showed that the C(H)1 domain of IgGH specifically binds to RA-susceptible HLA-DR molecule and is expressed on the cell surface. RF specifically recognizes the C(H)3 domain of the IgGH/HLA-DR4 complex.

Summary: This study explores the characteristics of virus-specific CTLs related to the severity of COVID-19. Through the establishment of a cellular screening method, the researchers found that the SARS-CoV-2 M protein is a frequent target of CD8(+) T cells, and identified M198-206 as an immunoprevalent epitope in convalescent COVID-19 patients. Further single cell RNA sequencing revealed an exhausted phenotype with less differentiated status in cells from the severe group compared to cells from the moderate group.

Summary: Astrocytes, specifically those expressing HNK-1-O-Man(+) PTPRZ, play a crucial role in demyelination-associated conditions such as multiple sclerosis. This unique glycosylation pattern of PTPRZ is responsible for the pattern of reactive astrocytes in damaged brain areas. Understanding the role of HNK-1-O-Man(+) PTPRZ in astrocytes can provide insights into the development and progression of brain diseases.

Summary: Stimulator of interferon genes (STING) is crucial for the immune response against DNA pathogens, and its degradation is mediated by endosomal sorting complexes required for transport (ESCRT) proteins. STING-positive vesicles derived from recycling endosomes are encapsulated into lysosomes after STING ubiquitination. This study provides insights into the regulation of STING and prevents hyperactivation of the immune response.

Summary: Interferon regulatory factors (IRFs) play important roles in regulating the antiviral response against human coronaviruses. Activation of IRF1, IRF3, and IRF7 is observed during infection with different strains of coronaviruses. Knockdown and overexpression experiments demonstrate that IRF1 and IRF3 have antiviral properties against OC43, while IRF3 and IRF7 are effective in restricting 229E infection. Our study highlights the potential of IRFs as antiviral regulators against human coronavirus infection.
