Figure Lengend Snippet: Figure 5 | ARF6 depletion does not affect viral budding. (a) Western blot illustrating sustained ARF6 depletion during the time course of the experiment, viral release being measured 6 days after RNAi treatment. (b,c) MCF-7 cells infected with VSV-G-pseudotyped HIV-1 were analysed by confocal fluorescence microscopy to test for their ability to allow viral budding. (b) Viral envelope proteins were stained with anti-Env SUgp120 antibodies (green) and viruses that completed their budding were detected with an antibody recognizing mature matrix protein MAp17 (red). Note the high level of colocalization illustrating that most virions completed their budding at the plasma membrane. Scale bar, 5 mm. Nuclei were stained with DAPI (blue). (c) The total MAp17 fluorescence was divided by the total number of nuclei in each field, calculated for 150 to 200 cells in three independent experiments. Histograms represent the mean fluorescence intensity per nucleus±s.d. as an estimation of the number of mature viruses released per cell. NS, non significant (Student’s t-test). (d) After RNAi treatment, MCF-7 cells were infected with VSV-G-pseudotyped HIV-1. Three days after infection, cells were analysed by confocal fluorescence microscopy using a p24 antibody to stain intracellular Gag and the mature virus. The total p24 fluorescence was divided by the total number of nuclei in each field, calculated for 150 to 200 cells in three independent experiments. Histograms represent the mean fluore- scence intensity per nucleus±s.d. NS, non significant (Student’s t-test). (e) Virus release was determined by CAp24 quantification in the supernatant, using a HIV-1 p24 ELISA kit. p24 release was divided by the total number of cell. Results were normalized to 100% in siCNT cells. NS, non significant (Student’s t-test).

Figure Lengend Snippet: Figure 1. R5 but not X4 HIV-1 induces DCs to migrate through a monolayer of epithelial cells. Caco-2 cells were grown on transwell filter to form a confluent monolayer then DCs were let to adhere to the bottom of the filter. Cell-free HIV-1, LPS (1 mg/ml) or medium (DMEM 10% FCS) were incubated on the apical side of the Caco-2 monolayer for 1.5 h. Filters were processed for CM. A–F. Three-dimensional rendering of representative fields obtained with Volocity 5.0 software. Mouse anti-human E-Cadherin þ Alexafluor488 goat anti-mouse IgG2a (green) depicts interepithelial adherent junctions. Mouse anti-human DC-SIGN-PE (red) labels the DCs, which creep through epithelial cells in response to incubation with R5 HIV-1J6363 (A, at 1 ng of p24 Ag) and HIV-1AD8 (B, at 24 ng of p24 Ag) but do not in response to X4 HIV-1IIIB (D, at 10 ng of p24 Ag) and HIV-1pNL4.3 (E, at 40 ng of p24 Ag). LPS (C) and medium (F) were positive and negative controls. The experiment was repeated three times. G,H. Quantitative analysis of DCs migration across the Caco-2 cell monolayer at the apical (G) and medial (H) level of the cell layer is shown. Results are expressed as percentage of area occupied by DCs compared to that of the whole field. Bars represent mean SD of three or four fields of three different experiments.

Figure Lengend Snippet: Figure 2. DCs migration does not alter junctional protein expression by Caco-2 cells and preserves the integrity of the HIV-1 treated monolayer. The Caco-2/DCs co-culture system was incubated with medium or R5 HIV-1AD8 at 24 ng of p24 Ag for 1.5 h. A–D. CM cross-sectional images of specimens stained for DCSIGN-PE (red) and for the epithelial junctions (green) JAM (A), E-Cadherin (B) Occludin (C) ZO-1 (D) showed that HIV-1 as well as migrated DCs did not affect the intraepithelial junctions expression in the Caco-2/DC system. DAPI stained the nuclei. Results are from one representative experiment out of three. E. Ultrastructure of Caco-2/DCs culture treated with R5 HIV-1J6363 (at 1 ng of p24 Ag) for 1.5 h. TEM images show DCs adhering to the filter (), DCs protrusions inside the filter membrane pore () and a DC interposed between adjacent Caco-2 cells () Scale bar: 2 mm. Numbers identify the corresponding magnified images displayed in panel (E), and arrows point to interepithelial TJs (1, 2), TJs-like structures between DCs and Caco-2 cells (3–5), contiguity among cells inside the pore (6), and junction like-structures between DCs (7) Scale bar: 500 nm. Results from a representative experiment out of three are shown. F. Semi-thin sections for TEM labelled with Toluidine blue and the corresponding explicative colour mask below (Caco-2 cells red, DCs blue, filter grey) show the morphology and the spatial organization of cells. Caco-2 cells are columnar and polarized, displaying microvilli, dense cytoplasmic granules and vacuoles characteristic of epithelial cells. DCs are disposed along the lower face of the filter, inside the membrane pores and, in HIV-1 treated sample, intercalated in between Caco-2 cells, without destroying epithelial monolayer continuity. G. The permeability of the Caco-2/DCs culture to FD4 (4 kDa, 250 mg/ml) in the presence of medium, R5 HIV-1AD8 (at 24 ng of p24 Ag) and CN54 gp140 protein (100 ng/ml) is shown as percentage of the positive control (i.e. FD4 added in the upper chamber of the transwell without Caco-2 cells). Triton X100 was included as control of barrier disruption. Results are mean values SD of triplicates from a representative experiment out of three.

Figure Lengend Snippet: Figure 5. DCs capture HIV-1 in colonic explant and in vitro Caco-2/DC model. Human colonic tissue was either left untreated (A) or incubated with R5 HIV-1J6363 (B) or R5 HIV-1AD8 (C and D) (at 50 ng of p24 Ag) for 30 min. HIV-1 virions co-localized with CD11cþ DCs that migrate inside the epithelium as well as with DCs closely underlying the epithelium (see white arrows in B and C). Moreover virions were detected at both the apical and basal side as well as penetrating the epithelium. Yellow arrows point to virions entrapped in the mucus. Absence of p24 Ag in the basal medium, determined with ELISA, confirmed the seal integrity of the tissue culture system without any viral leakage (as described in Materials and Methods Section). Panel (D) is a magnification (zoom 3) of the boxed area in C. Cryosections were fixed with 4% PFA and stained with mouse anti-human CD11c-PE (DCs; red), mouse anti-p24 þ Alexafluor488 goat anti-mouse IgG (HIV-1; green), and DAPI (nuclei; blue). Scale bar indicate the magnifications. Each Figure is representative of results from three donor tissues. Caco-2/DCs co-culture was incubated with R5 HIV-1AD8-GFP (at 20 ng of p24 Ag) for 30 min (E), 1.5 h (F) or 4.5 h (G). (A and B) Three-dimensional renderings from CM z-series stacks of representative images (acquired with objective 40, zoom 6.5) showed GFP-expressing virions (green, indicated by arrows) either on migrated (E) as well as non- migrated DCs at the basal side (F, the bottom side of the filter is shown). Cells were stained for DAPI (all cells; blue) and mouse anti-human CD11c þ AlexaFluor594 goat anti-mouse IgG (DCs; red).

Figure Lengend Snippet: Figure 7. DCs migration is dependent from the viral envelope. In the absence of the HIV-1 env as well as of the V1V3 env region, DCs did not migrate across the Caco-2 monolayer (A and B). The V1V3 env region of an R5 virus completely restored the migratory ability of DCs (C). A–C. The Caco-2/DCs co-culture was incubated apically for 1.5 h with HIV-1 deleted of the env (HIV-1Denv, 6 ng of p24 Ag) (A), the HIV-143DV deleted of the V1V3 region (40 ng of p24 Ag) as negative control (B) and a recombinant HIV-1 with the V1V3 env region of the R5 HIV-1J6363 primary virus recombined with the HIV-143DV backbone (HIV-1J6363-43DV, 20 ng of p24 Ag) (C). Three-dimensional reconstructions from CM z-series image stacks of the Caco-2/DCs culture stained for DAPI (epithelial cells and DCs; blue) and mouse anti-human DC-SIGN-PE (DCs; red) are shown. D,E.

Article Title: Cryo-electron tomography of Birbeck granules reveals the molecular mechanism of langerin lattice formation

doi: 10.1101/2022.02.24.481763

Figure Lengend Snippet: HIV-1 pseudoviruses were added to langerin-expressing 293T cells. Yeast mannan (10µg/ml) was added to block the lectin-dependent binding of pseudoviruses. A langerin mutant lacking calcium binding ability (lectin (-)) was used as the negative control. (A) Immunoblots of pseudoviruses attached to the cell surface. Unbound and attached viruses were collected from the supernatant of the culture medium and TBS-EDTA buffer, respectively. Samples of unbound viruses were diluted 50-fold to adjust the band intensities. The expression levels of SNAP-tagged langerin show that the numbers of transfected cells were approximately the same in each experiment. Pr55 gag and p24 indicate unprocessed and fully-processed capsid proteins, respectively. (B) Immunoblots of internalized pseudoviruses. Birbeck granules were isolated by precipitation using streptavidin-agarose, and intracellular viruses and langerin were detected by their respective antibodies. Tubulins in the whole-cell lysates were detected for loading controls. (C) Quantification of immunoblots in B. Amounts of internalized virus in the absence of mannan were compared by normalizing the intensities of p24 bands to those of corresponding langerin bands. Horizontal lines indicate the mean. Asterisks indicate statistically significant differences ( p = 0.0076) calculated using a paired Student’s t -test (N=3).

Article Snippet: Viruses, langerin, and tubulin were detected by immunoblotting using HIV-1 gag p24 antibody (1:1000 dilution, MAB7360, mouse monoclonal, R&D systems, Minneapolis, MN), human CD207 antibody (1:1000 dilution, 11841-1-AP, rabbit polyclonal, Proteintech Group Inc., Rosemont, IL), and tubulin antibody (1:3000 dilution, B-512, mouse monoclonal, Sigma-Aldrich), respectively.
