Etude de la déstabilisation des structures protéique et chromatinienne des centromères par la protéine ICP0 du virus Herpes Simplex de Type 1 / Study of the protein and chromatin structures destabilization of centromeres by the herpes simplex virus type 1 protein ICP0

Gross, Sylvain 01 December 2011 (has links)
Le virus Herpes Simplex de type 1 (HSV-1) possède un mode d’infection particulier dit bimodal. Il peut soit se répliquer de manière active lors d’une phase dite lytique soit migrer dans les neurones et rester en latence. Il peut réactiver pour rétablir une infection lytique. Une protéine virale majeure dans la réactivation de HSV-1 est ICP0. C’est une protéine nucléaire à activité E3 ubiquitine ligase, qui possède la particularité d’induire la dégradation par le protéasome de plusieurs protéines centromériques constitutives, ce qui provoque une déstabilisation du centromère interphasique. Mon équipe a découvert une réponse cellulaire à l’instabilité centromérique, induite par la protéine ICP0, et nommée iCDR (pour interphase Centromere Damage Response.). L’objectif général de ma thèse est de déterminer les modifications structurales que subissent les centromères endommagés par ICP0 à l’origine de l’iCDR et probablement de la réactivation. J’ai pu démontrer qu’ICP0 affectait toute la structure protéique étroitement associée aux centromères durant l’interphase. Suite à ces résultats, j’ai pu démontrer, par des analyses de digestion de chromatine à la nucléase microccocale (MNAse), que l’occupation nucléosomique de la chromatine centromérique suite à l’activité d’ICP0 était affectée de façon significative. Une étude in vivo effectuée à partir de tissus nerveux provenant de souris infectées de manière latente, a permis de démontrer une co-localisation entre les génomes HSV-1 latents et les centromères. Cette co-localisation est associée à une répression transcriptionnelle du virus. Les résultats de ma thèse montrent donc que les effets d’ICP0 sur la déstabilisation des centromères sont en relation avec un rôle de ces centromères durant la latence. Ceci suggère fortement une implication de la déstabilisation des centromères dans le processus de réactivation contrôlé par ICP0. / The Herpes Simplex type 1 (HSV-1) virus possesses a bimodal mode of infection. It can either replicates in an active way during the lytic cycle, or it can infect neurons and stay in latency. HSV-1 reactivates from latently infected neurons for re-establishing a lytic infection. A major viral protein implicated in reactivation is ICP0. It is a nuclear E3 ubiquitin-ligase, which has the particularity to induce the proteasome-mediated degradation of several constitutive centromeric proteins. This activity severely destabilizes the interphase centromere. My team has discovered a novel cellular response triggered by the estabilization of centromeres by ICP0, called iCDR (interphase Centromere Damage Response). The general aim of my thesis is to determine the centromere structural modifications induced by ICP0 that can trigger the iCDR and probably the reactivation. I was able to demonstrate that ICP0 affected the entire proteinacious structure of interphase centromeres. Following this, I showed by micrococcal nuclease (MNase) digestion approach that the nucleosomal organization of centromeric chromatin was significantly affected by ICP0. An in vivo study in nervous tissues coming from latently infected mice enabled to show a co-localization between latent HSV-1 genomes and centromeres. This co-localisation is linked to a transcriptional repression of the virus. The results of my thesis show that the destabilization of centromere by ICP0 correlates with a role of the centromeres during latency. This strongly suggests an implication of centromere destabilization in the ICP0-controlled reactivation process.

Sensibilização central induzida pelo vírus HSV-1: uma análise de mecanismos de dor crônica em modelo experimental de neuralgia pós-herpética / Central sensibilization inducted by HSV-1 virus: an analysis of chronic pain mechanisms in experimental model of post herpetic neuralgia

Rossi, Laís Regina 11 January 2018 (has links)
A dor é descrita como uma sensação sensorial e emocional desagradável de extrema importância para sobrevivência e integridade do organismo. As dores crônicas de origem neuropática são de difícil tratamento e seus mecanismos fisiopatológicos pouco conhecidos. Este estudo foi realizado após inoculação do vírus HSV-1 na pata traseira esquerda de camundongos machos da linhagem Balb/C, e teve como objetivo investigar comportamentalmente o desenvolvimento de alodínia mecânica e hipernocicepção nas fases herpética e pós herpética, caracterizar a atividade de vias intracelulares de sinalização das proteínas JNK, AKT CREB, P38, ERK, Glutamina Sintetase e Stat 3, através de western blot na coluna dorsal da medula espinal nas fases herpética e pós herpética, além de verificar a presença do vírus HSV-1 na medula espinal e gânglio dos animais por meio da reação em cadeia da polimerase em tempo real (RT-PCR). Os resultados evidenciaram alteração de sensibilidade nos animais a partir do 7º dia que permaneceu até o 28º dia após a inoculação do vírus. Houve uma mudança na expressão das proteínas MAPKs, com aumento na expressão de JNK, AKT e CREB no corno dorsal da medula no 8º e 21º dia após a inoculação do vírus HSV-1, aumento na expressão de P 38 e P ERK no 8º dia após inoculação do vírus e uma diminuição na expressão da proteína Stat 3 no 8º e 21º dia após a inoculação do vírus, sugerindo assim a participação dessas proteínas na alteração de sensibilidade tanto no período herpético quanto pós herpético. Também ocorreu um aumento na amplificação do DNA viral HSV-1 na medula espinal e gânglio espinal esquerdo no período herpético após inoculação do vírus HSV-1 / The pain is described as a sensorial and emotional unpleasant sensation of extreme importance for survival and integrity of the organism. The chronic pains that has neuropathic source are hard to treat and its physiopathologic mechanisms not well known. This study was performed after inoculation of the virus HSV-1 in the left back foot of male Balb/C mouse, and had as main objectives to behaviorally investigate the development of mechanical allodynia and hyper nociception during the herpetic and post-herpetic phase, characterize the activity of the intracellular signalization paths of the proteins JNK, AKT CRB, P38, ERK, glutamine synthetase and Sat 3 during herpetic and post-herpetic phase using Western Blot, besides checking as well for the presence of HSV-1 viral load in the spinal cord and ganglions using RT-PCR. The results evidenced alteration of sensitivity in the animals from the 7th day that remained until the 28th day after inoculation of the virus, a change in the MAPKs proteins expression, with a raise of expression of JNK, AKT e CREB in the dorsal horn of the spinal cord in the 8th and 21st day after the HSV-1 virus inoculation, thus suggesting the participation of these proteins in the alteration of sensitivity both in the herpetic and post herpetic periods. It is also possible to observe the presence of viral load in the spinal cord and left spinal ganglion in the herpetic period after HSV-1 virus inoculation
