The ubiquitin-like modifier FAT10 is upregulated under pro-inflammatory conditions, targets its substrates for proteasomal degradation and functions as a negative regulator of the type-I IFN response. Influenza A virus infection upregulates the production of type-I IFN and the expression of the E3 ligase TRIM21, which regulates type-I IFN production in a positive feedback manner. In this study, we show that FAT10 becomes covalently conjugated to TRIM21 and that this targets TRIM21 for proteasomal degradation. We further show that the coiled-coil and PRYSPRY domains of TRIM21 and the C-terminal diglycine motif of FAT10 are important for the TRIM21-FAT10 interaction. Moreover, upon influenza A virus infection and in the presence of FAT10 the total ubiquitination of TRIM21 is reduced and our data reveal that the FAT10-mediated degradation of TRIM21 diminishes IFNβ production. Overall, this study provides strong evidence that FAT10 down-regulates the antiviral type-I IFN production by modulating additional molecules of the RIG-I signaling pathway besides the already published OTUB1. In addition, we elucidate a novel mechanism of FAT10-mediated proteasomal degradation of TRIM21 that regulates its stability.

Background: Xalnesiran, a small interfering RNA molecule that targets a conserved region of the hepatitis B virus (HBV) genome and silences multiple HBV transcripts, may have efficacy, with or without an immunomodulator, in patients with chronic HBV infection.
Methods: We conducted a phase 2, multicenter, randomized, controlled, adaptive, open-label platform trial that included the evaluation of 48 weeks of treatment with xalnesiran at a dose of 100 mg (group 1), xalnesiran at a dose of 200 mg (group 2), xalnesiran at a dose of 200 mg plus 150 mg of ruzotolimod (group 3), xalnesiran at a dose of 200 mg plus 180 μg of pegylated interferon alfa-2a (group 4), or a nucleoside or nucleotide analogue (NA) alone (group 5) in participants with chronic HBV infection who had virologic suppression with NA therapy. The primary efficacy end point was hepatitis B surface antigen (HBsAg) loss (HBsAg level, <0.

Macrophages exposed to immune stimuli reprogram their epigenomes to alter their subsequent functions. Exposure to bacterial lipopolysaccharide (LPS) causes widespread nucleosome remodeling and the formation of thousands of de novo enhancers. We dissected the regulatory logic by which the network of interferon regulatory factors (IRFs) induces the opening of chromatin and the formation of de novo enhancers.

Background: Understanding the interference patterns of respiratory viruses could be important for shedding light on potential strategies to combat these human infectious agents.
Objective: To investigate the possible interactions between adenovirus type 2 (AdV2), severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) and influenza A/H1N1 pandemic (H1N1pdm09) using the A549 cell line.
Methods: Single infections, co-infections, and superinfections (at 3 and 24 h after the first virus infection) were performed by varying the multiplicity of infection (MOI).

Bovine viral diarrhea virus (BVDV), a pestivirus in the family , is a major livestock pathogen. Horizontal transmission leads to acute transient infections via the oronasal route, whereas vertical transmission might lead to the birth of immunotolerant, persistently infected animals. In both cases, BVDV exerts an immunosuppressive effect, predisposing infected animals to secondary infections.

Herpes simplex virus (HSV) in humans and pseudorabies virus (PRV) in pigs are both alphaherpesviruses. Plasmacytoid dendritic cells (pDCs) make part of the peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs) and are specialized in producing large amounts of antiviral type I interferon (IFN-I). IFN-I production by PBMCs in response to both HSV-1 and PRV can be virtually exclusively attributed to pDCs.
