Abstract
The influenza A virus (IAV) H1N1pdm09 induces exacerbated inflammation, contributing to disease complications. Inflammatory cytokines, such as tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-α), favor an inflammatory response that aids viral replication and survival. A pathway by which spontaneous TNF-α production occurs involves either the reduction of Siglec-3 (CD33) levels or the absence of its ligand, sialic acid. Influenza virus uses sialic acid to enter cells by reducing their expression; however, the role of CD33 in IAV H1N1pdm09 stimulation and its relationship with inflammation have not yet been studied. To evaluate the role of CD33 in proinflammatory cytokine production in IAV H1N1pdm09 stimulation, peripheral blood mononuclear cells from healthy subjects were incubated with IAV H1N1pdm09. We observed that the infection caused an increase in the mRNA expression of proinflammatory cytokines such as TNF-α, interleukin (IL)-1β, and IL-6 and a significant reduction in CD33 expression by monocytes at an early stage of infection. Additionally, suppressor of cytokine signaling 3 (SOCS-3) mRNA expression was upregulated at 6 h, and reactive oxygen species (ROS) production increased at 1.5 h. Moreover, a significant reduction in CD33 expression on the cell surface of monocytes from influenza patients or of IAV H1N1pdm09-stimulated monocytes incubated in vitro was observed by flow cytometry. The results suggest that the decrease in CD33 and increase of SOCS-3 expression induced by IAV H1N1pdm09 triggered TNF-α secretion and ROS production, suggesting an additional way to exacerbate inflammation during viral infection.
