Primary infection during pregnancy poses a 30–40% risk of intrauterine transmission, with severe adverse outcomes more likely if the infection occurs within the first trimester gestation. Due to strict viral host specificity, so far there is no animal model of HCMV infection available. Current state of knowledge of CMV pathogenesis and host defense against HCMV has come largely from clinical observation and in vitro studies with cell lines or primary human cells [Sinzger and Jahn, <xref rid="jmv24674-bib-0028" ref-type="ref">1996</xref>].</p><p>Previous study in our laboratory has identified human fetal astrocytes permissive to HCMV infection [Zhang et al., <xref rid="jmv24674-bib-0037" ref-type="ref">2013</xref>]. It was reported that astrocytes constitute important parts of host defense mechanism, and play important roles in preserving CNS (central nervous system) function and protecting CNS against infectious agents [Carson and Sutcliffe, <xref rid="jmv24674-bib-0004" ref-type="ref">1999</xref>]. That HCMV or its proteins modulate gene expression in astrocytes has also been investigated. After being infected by HCMV, astrocytes produce as well as respond to a number of immune mediators, including interferon, ISG (interferon‐stimulated gene) proteins, cytokines, and chemokines [Grandvaux et al., <xref rid="jmv24674-bib-0007" ref-type="ref">2002</xref>] to control the spread of invading HCMV.</p><p>Type I IFN and ISG proteins have been shown to possess antiviral properties in CNS. Early expression of cytokines in CNS has been demonstrated to correlate with the control of viral replication [Carson and Sutcliffe, <xref rid="jmv24674-bib-0004" ref-type="ref">1999</xref>]. When virus contact with host cells, viral proteins and nucleic acids are detected by pathogen recognition receptors (PRRs) as pathogen‐associated molecular patterns (PAMPs). Subsequently, the signal transduction pathways are activated. Type I IFN and production of other cytokines are triggered. Type I IFN then augments the expression of several ISGs and subverts virus replication by a variety of mechanisms [Poland et al., <xref rid="jmv24674-bib-0026" ref-type="ref">1994</xref>; Peisley and Hur, <xref rid="jmv24674-bib-0023" ref-type="ref">2013</xref>]. However, not all ISGs are induced in IFN‐dependent manner. Some are induced in IRF3‐dependent manner [Grandvaux et al., <xref rid="jmv24674-bib-0007" ref-type="ref">2002</xref>]. Moreover, not all ISG proteins confer direct antiviral effects, and the anti‐HCMV effects of ISG proteins have not been attributed to every ISG family members so far characterized. Inhibitory phenotypes directed at specific ISG proteins need to be studied for HCMV. Given the observed replication of the virus in the presence of multiple antiviral host proteins, it is probable that a number of ISG‐inhibitory phenotypes are to be uncovered for HCMV [Munir, <xref rid="jmv24674-bib-0022" ref-type="ref">2013</xref>; Peisley and Hur, <xref rid="jmv24674-bib-0023" ref-type="ref">2013</xref>]; studies on ISG protein against HCMV infection were carried out using either cell lines or mature astrocytes, which do not mimic the natural course of HCMV infection and there are many gaps to be filled in the understanding of host defense against HCMV infection in CNS. To overcome these limitations, we used human fetal astrocytes of the first trimester gestation to investigate the antiviral effects of ISG proteins, with expectation of developing a targeting therapy without therapy‐limiting side effects of IFNs.</p><p>IFIT1 (Interferon‐induced protein with tetratricopeptide repeats 1) is one of the identified ISGs [Wathelet et al., <xref rid="jmv24674-bib-0035" ref-type="ref">1986</xref>; Levy et al., <xref rid="jmv24674-bib-0017" ref-type="ref">2004</xref>]. All members in IFIT family contain multiple tetratricopeptide motifs that are known to mediate protein–protein interactions through scaffolds formed among tandem TPR repeats [Lamb et al., <xref rid="jmv24674-bib-0016" ref-type="ref">1995</xref>]. IFIT1 is induced in response to type I IFNs stimulation, presence of double‐stranded RNAs, and virus infection [Guo et al., <xref rid="jmv24674-bib-0008" ref-type="ref">2000</xref>; Terenzi et al., <xref rid="jmv24674-bib-0030" ref-type="ref">2006</xref>]. IFIT1 interacts with the translation initiation factor eIF‐3, leading to the inhibition of protein synthesis. IFIT1 has been implicated to have similar antiviral effects as IFNs in fighting against West Nile virus and LCMV [Wacher et al., <xref rid="jmv24674-bib-0033" ref-type="ref">2007</xref>]. It is also reported to inhibit human papillomavirus DNA replication by binding to the viral protein E1 [Terenzi et al., <xref rid="jmv24674-bib-0031" ref-type="ref">2008</xref>]; studies demonstrated that the 2′‐O methylation of the 5′ cap of viral RNA functions to subvert innate host antiviral responses through escape of IFIT‐mediated suppression [Daffis et al., <xref rid="jmv24674-bib-0006" ref-type="ref">2010</xref>]; It was discovered that IFIT proteins selectively recognize viral RNA via a 5′‐triphosphate group (PPP‐RNA), and lend insight into their downstream effector function [Pichlmair et al., <xref rid="jmv24674-bib-0025" ref-type="ref">2011</xref>; Abbas et al., <xref rid="jmv24674-bib-0001" ref-type="ref">2013</xref>]. Recently, it was reported that ISG54 and ISG56 may contribute to immune and inflammatory reactions elicited by TLR3/IFN‐β signaling pathway in astrocytes, and may play an important role both in antiviral immunity and in neuroinflammatory diseases [Imaizumi et al., <xref rid="jmv24674-bib-0013" ref-type="ref">2014</xref>]. However, little has been reported to date on the protective mechanism of IFIT1 against HCMV infection.</p><p>In present study, human fetal astrocytes were infected with HCMV AD169 and whole genome transcriptome profile microarrays were performed. The results showed that HCMV infection regulated multiple gene expression, including up‐regulation of interferon‐stimulated genes, and genes of chemokine and chemokine receptors, indicating HCMV infection in astrocytes profoundly altered host cell biology. The expression of ISGs were up‐regulated dramatically in HCMV infected group with IFIT1 expression most significantly increased (change folds = 148.17). IFIT1 was further studied for its antiviral effects using overexpression and knockdown lentivirus transduction.</p></sec><sec id="jmv24674-sec-0003"><title>MATERIALS AND METHODS</title><sec id="jmv24674-sec-0004"><title>Cell Culture and Virus Infection</title><p>Human astrocytes from three 65‐ to 75‐day‐old fetal brains and HELFs (human embryonic lung fibroblast cells) were obtained from aborted fetuses in the Department of Obstetrics and Gynecology of the Affiliated Hospital, Qingdao University Medical College. The use of aborted fetal brain was approved by Qingdao University Human Investigation Committee. The pregnant women who voluntarily underwent abortion showed negative peripheral blood HCMV antibody detection. Astrocytes were isolated and purified as previous studies [Luo et al., <xref rid="jmv24674-bib-0020" ref-type="ref">2010</xref>; Zhang et al., <xref rid="jmv24674-bib-0037" ref-type="ref">2013</xref>, <xref rid="jmv24674-bib-0038" ref-type="ref">2014</xref>], cells were seeded onto different culture dishes respectively in DMEM/F12 medium supplemented with 10% FBS and 1% penicillin/streptomycin. After cells grew to about 70–80% convergence, the medium was replaced with DMEM/F12 medium supplemented with 2% FBS. Cells were infected with HCMV AD169 (m.o.i = 2.5) for 2 hr, then the medium was replaced with fresh DMEM/F12 medium supplemented with 2% FBS. Cells were maintained at 37°C in a humidified atmosphere containing 5% CO<sub>2</sub> for 2, 4, 6, 72 hr.</p></sec><sec id="jmv24674-sec-0005"><title>Whole Genome Profile Microarrays</title><p>After 6 or 72 hr HCMV infection, total RNA was extracted using TRIzol Reagent (Invitrogen, Carlsbad, CA) and reversed to cDNA. Four micrograms of dscDNA were sent to the NimbleGen expression array platform. The NimbleGen platform proposes high‐density expression arrays in which every human gene is represented by several independent probes. These probes consist of 60‐mers isothermal oligonucleotides, which show more robust hybridization than shorter oligonucleotides. The NimbleGen human expression array (Format: 12 × 135k; Source: NCBI; Build: HG18, Build 36; Probe Length: 60 mer; Genes: 45033; Probes/Target: 3; Replicates: 1) involves 45,033 gene transcripts (i.e., different accession numbers corresponding to the same or different isoforms). DNA end‐labeling, hybridization, scanning, and data normalization were performed at NimbleGen, which provided the final data file. Array hybridization using the NimbleGen Hybridization System followed by washing with the NimbleGen wash buffer kit and Array scanning using the Axon GenePix 4000B microarray scanner (Molecular Devices Corporation, Sunnyvale, CA) were conducted. Scanned images were then imported into NimbleScan software (version 2.5) for grid alignment and expression data analysis. Expression data were normalized through quantile normalization and the Robust Multichip Average (RMA) algorithm included in the NimbleScan software. The Probe level files and Gene level files were generated after normalization. All gene level files were imported into Agilent GeneSpring GX software (version 11.5.1) for further analysis. Genes that at least nine out of nine samples greater than or equal to lower cut‐off: 50.0 were chosen for data analysis. Differentially expressed genes between two samples were identified through Fold Change filtering. Differentially expressed genes between two groups were identified through Volcano Plot filtering. A set of genes presenting an average of at least twofold induction/repression calculated from the different probes specific for each gene spotted on the NimbleGen chip were selected for promoter analysis. GO analysis were applied to determine the roles of these differentially expressed genes played in these biological GO terms.</p></sec><sec id="jmv24674-sec-0006"><title>qRT‐PCR</title><p>QRT‐PCR was performed in 96‐well optical plates (Sorenson Bioscience, Inc., Salt Lake City, UT) with cDNA using the MyiQ Single‐Color Real‐Time PCR Detection System (Bio‐Rad Laboratories, Hercules, CA) in 20 µl reaction volumes.

When infected with HCMV AD169 and obtained at 6 hr post infection (p.i), astrocytes were examined for mRNA expression with transcriptome microarray using the platform developed by NimbleGen (Madison, WI). As one gene is often represented by several transcripts, we focused only on those genes represented by two or more transcripts and displaying a mean fold difference ≥2.0 and <italic>t</italic>‐test <italic>P</italic>‐value <0.05. With these criteria, we found that about 154 genes, including 138 up‐regulated and 16 down‐regulated, were modulated at 6 hr p.i. Gene expressions with more than 10‐fold change were shown in Table <xref rid="jmv24674-tbl-0001" ref-type="table">I</xref>. To verify the results, the mRNA expression of up‐regulated genes IFIT1, MXA, MXB, CCL5, CXCL2, BST2, IL8, IL11 at 6 hr p.i vs con and astrocyte genes GFAP and Vim were confirmed by qRT‐PCR (Fig. <xref rid="jmv24674-fig-0001" ref-type="fig">1</xref>B). A good correlation was found between the two analyses, although almost all genes had higher FC values in qRT‐PCR than in microarray analysis.

The symptoms of primary HCMV infection in healthy adults are generally mild, but infection during first trimester gestation can lead to serious neurodevelopment sequelea in infants. Fetal CNS is especially vulnerable to CMV‐induced injury [Poland et al., <xref rid="jmv24674-bib-0026" ref-type="ref">1994</xref>; McCarthy et al., <xref rid="jmv24674-bib-0021" ref-type="ref">2000</xref>]. Astrocytes are the most abundant cell type found in the CNS, outnumbering neurons 10‐1. These glial cells have the capacity to react to a variety of CNS disturbances such as viral infection through the production of immune mediators and it is well established that primary human astrocytes are fully permissive for CMV replication [Ho et al., <xref rid="jmv24674-bib-0011" ref-type="ref">1991</xref>; Lokensgard et al., <xref rid="jmv24674-bib-0018" ref-type="ref">1999</xref>]. Host antiviral responses to HCMV begin quickly after virus‐cell contact involving interaction with a growing list of pattern recognition receptors that initiate intracellular signaling and consequent expression and secretion of numerous immunologically active cytokines.</p><p>In this study, HCMV infected human fetal astrocytes were studied for the effects HCMV on genome transcription of astrocytes and antiviral activity of astrocytes. Firstly, we performed genome wide gene expression of HCMV infected human fetal astrocytes in vitro. With a 2.0‐fold change as a cutoff, it showed HCMV infection led to extensive dysregulation of cellular gene expression in astrocytes. One hundred and fifty‐four gene expressions (138 up‐regulated, 16 down‐regulated) were modulated in HCMV infected astrocytes compared with mock infected group at 6 hr p.i. GO analysis showed the top five categories in biological process and all belonged to cell response to stimuli (Table <xref rid="jmv24674-tbl-0002" ref-type="table">II</xref>). ISGs involved in antiviral response process in early infection time [Ho and van den Pol, <xref rid="jmv24674-bib-0010" ref-type="ref">2007</xref>] exhibited the highest fold changes in HCMV infected astrocytes compared with mock infected group at 6 hr p.i. However, this result was not consistent with the finding that microglia not astrocytes could produce antiviral cytokines in response to CMV infection [Lokensgard et al., <xref rid="jmv24674-bib-0019" ref-type="ref">2002</xref>]. The reason could be that the response to HCMV infection in fetal astrocytes was different from mature astrocytes or cell lines. These up‐regulated ISGs included IFIT1, IFIT2, IFIT3, IFITM1, MXA, MXB, OAS1, OAS2, OASL, USP18, USP41, IFI44, and BST2. It also showed that gene expression levels of chemokine and chemokine receptors (IL‐11, MCP‐1, IL‐8, RANTES, IP‐10, and MIP‐1α, Table <xref rid="jmv24674-tbl-0003" ref-type="table">III</xref>) were up‐regulated compared to mock infected group at 6 hr p.i. This result was consistent with the report that CMV‐infected human brain vascular pericytes and astrocytes released substantial amounts of the chemokines MCP‐1, MIP‐1α, and IL‐8 [Lokensgard et al., <xref rid="jmv24674-bib-0019" ref-type="ref">2002</xref>; Alcendor et al., <xref rid="jmv24674-bib-0002" ref-type="ref">2012</xref>]. Several studies have demonstrated that chemokine play important roles in regulating brain inflammation during viral encephalitis because of their chemotactic properties, and the importance of CCL5, CCL3, CCL4, IL‐11, IL‐8, and MCP‐1 in regulating immune responses in the CNS have been emphasized [Weiss et al., <xref rid="jmv24674-bib-0036" ref-type="ref">1998</xref>; Kutsch et al., <xref rid="jmv24674-bib-0015" ref-type="ref">2000</xref>; Zlotnik, <xref rid="jmv24674-bib-0039" ref-type="ref">2000</xref>]. Our results showed different fold changes of these cytokines and chemokines in HCMV infected astrocytes (Table <xref rid="jmv24674-tbl-0003" ref-type="table">III</xref>). Additionally, it has also been reported that early local expression of cytokines with antiviral properties in the CNS such as TNFα, IFNα, IFNβ, and IFNɣ correlates with control of viral replication. IFN treatment induces the expression of a large set of IFN‐stimulated genes (ISGs), whose protein products prevent infection with many pathogens, including HCMV [Samuel, <xref rid="jmv24674-bib-0027" ref-type="ref">2001</xref>]. In present study, the results showed different fold changes with IL‐1β, IL‐8, IL‐6 in HCMV infected astrocytes compared with mock infected group at 6 hr p.i, while TNFα, IFNα, IFNβ, or IFNɣ exhibited little gene expression level in HCMV or mock infected astrocytes and fold changes were no statistical significance in HCMV infected astrocytes compared with mock infected control. The results suggested that HCMV infected astrocytes defended themselves against HCMV infection through expressing of ISGs, cytokines, and chemokines which either exert direct antiviral activities, or recruit antiviral immune cells such as microglia to the sites of infection [Peterson et al., <xref rid="jmv24674-bib-0024" ref-type="ref">1997</xref>] and ISGs exerted important role in antiviral action. However, it is also plausible that only a subset of ISGs is essential for protection against a specific pathogen or groups of related pathogens. Thus, identification of pathogen‐specific ISGs might lead to development of targeted therapeutics.</p><table-wrap id="jmv24674-tbl-0003" xml:lang="en" orientation="portrait"

Overexpression Lentivirus lv/IFIT1/EGFP gene was transduced into astrocytes or HELFs, respectively. Cells were infected with HCMV AD169 for 72 hr. Cell appearance showed no change in lv/IFIT1/EGFP transduced astrocytes compared with lv/ctl/EGFP transduced control group at 72 hr p.i, while morphological changes were observed in lv/IFIT1/EGFP and lv/ctl/EGFP transduced HELFs. The different antiviral effects of IFIT1 on astrocytes and HELFs might be caused different expression of cellular factors, which may be responsible for the modulation of viral gene expression [Towler et al., <xref rid="jmv24674-bib-0032" ref-type="ref">2012</xref>], and reinforce the reason to investigate the specific antiviral replication role of IFIT1 in fetal astrocytes. Furthermore, mRNA expression of IE1, IE2, and pp65 were detected by QRT‐PCR at 4, 6, 12 hr p.i and protein expression were detected by western blot at 24, 48 hr p.i, due to the delayed expression of protein compared to mRNA. The results showed that both mRNA and protein expressions were significantly reduced compared with lv/ctl/EGFP transduced control (<italic>P </italic>< 0.001). HCMV replication cycle in fetal astrocytes was 48–72 hr (showed in our previous study). Therefore, the release of HCMV infectious particles in cell culture medium and HCMV titer within astrocytes were determined at 48 and 72 hr p.i. The results showed significant decreases in the release of HCMV infectious particles in cell culture medium and in HCMV titer within astrocytes in lv/IFIT1/EGFP transduced astrocytes compared with the control (<italic>P </italic>< 0.001).</p><p>Finally, to further verify the antiviral effects of IFIT1, shIFIT1‐1 was used for knocking down IFIT1 gene. After shIFIT1‐1 lentivirus was transduced into astrocytes for 48 hr, cells were infected with HCMV AD169. Viral mRNA, protein expression levels and HCMV titers were determined, which showed significant increases in mRNA expressions of IE1, IE2, pp65, and viral titers in knockdown group compared with the control (<italic>P </italic>< 0.01), suggesting the antiviral replication effects of IFIT1 in fetal astrocytes. This is the first report on antiviral effects of IFIT1 in human fetal astrocytes to date and these findings also pointed to the potential importance of studying human primary first‐trimester gestation astrocytes because the antiviral effects of particular cytokines depend on specific cell surface receptors that may not be present or functional on established glial cell lines.</p><p>Functional studies have shown that IFITs inhibit the translation of viral proteins via different mechanisms. In early studies, IFITs were found to bind eukaryotic initiation factor 3 (eIF3) and interfere with viral protein translation [Hui et al., <xref rid="jmv24674-bib-0012" ref-type="ref">2003</xref>]. Recent studies showed that IFITs can distinguish the different features between host and viral RNAs, block West Nile virus, Japanese encephalitis virus, and coronavirus mutants that lack 2′‐O‐methyltransferase activity. Inhibition by IFIT1 occurs by preferentially sequestering capped RNA lacking a 2′‐O‐methyl group and preventing eukaryotic translation initiation factors from binding to the RNA template specifically [Daffis et al., <xref rid="jmv24674-bib-0006" ref-type="ref">2010</xref>; Habjan et al., <xref rid="jmv24674-bib-0009" ref-type="ref">2013</xref>; Kimura et al., <xref rid="jmv24674-bib-0014" ref-type="ref">2013</xref>]. IFIT1 was also identified as an eIF3‐associated protein fractionating with hepatitis C virus (HCV) translation complexes in IFN‐treated cells [Wang et al., <xref rid="jmv24674-bib-0034" ref-type="ref">2003</xref>]. IFIT1 blocks translation driven by the HCV internal ribosome entry site (IRES) and the inhibition depends on eIF3 binding by IFIT1. However, another study suggested IFIT1 preferentially inhibits cap‐dependent translation but not translation of the EMCV IRES [Hui et al., <xref rid="jmv24674-bib-0012" ref-type="ref">2003</xref>], since the EMCV IRES is different from that of HCV and functions by a different mechanism. IFIT1 also inhibits human papillomavirus DNA replication by binding to the viral protein E1 [Terenzi et al., <xref rid="jmv24674-bib-0031" ref-type="ref">2008</xref>]. Nevertheless, several important questions still remain to be addressed. Our data verified that IFIT1 possessed anti‐HCMV function by inhibiting virus replication in human fetal astrocytes. However, the underlying mechanism remains unclear. There are possibilities that IFIT1 inhibits DNA replication by binding to the viral protein, or by suppressing HCMV protein translation by binding eIF3. It will be interesting to ponder new information on the uncovered the processes described here and on how to exploit for novel clinical antiviral or therapeutic strategies. Further studies are necessary to look into the precise role of this effector molecule.</p><p>In conclusion, this study provided insights into the function of IFIT1 as a key factor in antiviral defensing, and regulation of IFIT1 expression level is effective for modulating viral replication in HCMV infected human fetal astrocytes. The findings of present study might contribute to the development of targeted therapeutics towards fetal brain HCMV infection.</p></sec><sec id="jmv24674-sec-0020"><title>ETHICAL STANDARD</title><p>The authors ensured that all procedures were performed in compliance with relevant laws and institutional guidelines and that the Qingdao University Human Investigation Committee has approved them.
