Autophagy-associated dengue vesicles promote viral transmission avoiding antibody neutralization

Abstract: One of the major defense mechanisms against virus spread in vivo is the blocking of viral infectibility by neutralizing antibodies. We describe here the identification of infectious autophagy-associated dengue vesicles released from infected cells. These vesicles contain viral proteins E, NS1, prM/M, and viral RNA, as well as host lipid droplets and LC3-II, an autophagy marker. The viral RNA can be protected within the autophagic organelles since anti-dengue neutralizing antibodies do not have an effect on the… Show more

“…Our results corroborate previous findings and further indicate that AUP1 is necessary to facilitate virus-triggered lipophagy in support of the proposed modus operandi Randall, 2010, 2011b). This pathway might also function to supply phospholipids necessary for either altering the composition of organelles to facilitate assembly of nascent virions or for unconventional secretion of autophagyassociated dengue vesicles, as hypothesized previously (Wu et al, 2016).…”

“…ZIKV-induced autophagic activity in human trophoblasts restricted by pharmacological inhibition, or by deficiency in an essential autophagy gene, Atg16L1, limited ZIKV vertical transmission and improved placental and fetal outcomes, which supported a role for autophagic secretion in the process [71]. Along the same lines, it was hypothesised that DENV might evade neutralising antibodies and increase viral spread by exploiting autophagic vesicles for delivery to the extracellular medium [72]. Double staining of DENV E antigen and LC3 in a close-contact co-culture experimental set-up verified secretion of DENV-containing autophagic vesicles from donor cells, which were subsequently taken up by recipient cells.…”

“…The role that may have the presence of a DENV protein in these EVs is still not clear, although it has been reported that tetraspanin 189 bearing vesicles transport DENV in cytoplasmic prolongations of C6/36 cells [50] and other LC3-II positive large vesicles (2 to 5 μm) transport not only virus but RNA, and E, prM and NS1 proteins favoring the cell to cell transfer [51]. These results suggest that depending on the cell model, DENV infection can modulate cell death or defense processes such as apoptosis or autophagy mechanisms, kidnapping the cell transport of different types of vesicles, aimed to guarantee the movement and assembly of viral proteins and RNA and it's intracellular or extracellular spreading.…”
