In addition, IAV have been implicated in occasional pandemics with inordinate health and economic consequences. Studying IAV, in vitro or in vivo, requires the use of laborious secondary methodologies to identify virus-infected cells. To circumvent this requirement, replication-competent IAV expressing an easily traceable reporter protein can be used. Here we discuss the development and applications of recombinant replication-competent IAV harboring diverse fluorescent or bioluminescent reporter genes in different locations of the viral genome. These viruses have been employed for in vitro and in vivo studies, such as the screening of neutralizing antibodies or antiviral compounds, the identification of host factors involved in viral replication, cell tropism, the development of vaccines, or the assessment of viral infection dynamics. In summary, reporter-expressing, replicating-competent IAV represent a powerful tool for the study of IAV both in vitro and in vivo.\u003C\/p\u003E\n\u003C\/div\u003E\n        \n  \u003C\/div\u003E\n\u003C\/article\u003E\n\u003C\/li\u003E\n \u003Cli\u003E\n\u003Carticle class=\u0022bibcite-reference bibcite bibcite--teaser\u0022\u003E\n  \n  \n  \n\n  \u003Cdiv class=\u0022bibcite__content\u0022\u003E\n    \u003Cdiv class=\u0022bibcite-citation\u0022\u003E\n      \u003Cdiv class=\u0022csl-bib-body\u0022\u003E\u003Cdiv class=\u0022csl-entry\u0022\u003EDiPiazza, Anthony, Aitor Nogales, Nicholas Poulton, Patrick C Wilson, Luis Martinez-Sobrido, and Andrea J Sant.

In this report, we used a novel Influenza A\/California\/04\/09 (H1N1) reporter virus that stably expresses the Venus fluorescent protein to identify antigen-bearing cells over time in a mouse model of infection using flow cytometry. These studies revealed that many hematopoietic cells, including subsets of monocytes, macrophages, dendritic cells, neutrophils and eosinophils acquire influenza antigen in the lungs early post-infection. Surface staining of the viral HA revealed that most cell populations become infected, most prominently CD45neg cells, alveolar macrophages and neutrophils. Finally, differences in infection status, cell lineage and MHC class II expression by antigen-bearing cells correlated with differences in their ability to re-stimulate influenza-specific CD4 T cells ex vivo. Collectively, these studies have revealed the cellular heterogeneity and complexity of antigen-bearing cells within the lung and their potential as targets of antigen recognition by CD4 T cells.\u003C\/p\u003E\n\u003C\/div\u003E\n        \n  \u003C\/div\u003E\n\u003C\/article\u003E\n\u003C\/li\u003E\n \u003Cli\u003E\n\u003Carticle class=\u0022bibcite-reference bibcite bibcite--teaser\u0022\u003E\n  \n  \n  \n\n  \u003Cdiv class=\u0022bibcite__content\u0022\u003E\n    \u003Cdiv class=\u0022bibcite-citation\u0022\u003E\n      \u003Cdiv class=\u0022csl-bib-body\u0022\u003E\u003Cdiv class=\u0022csl-entry\u0022\u003ENogales, Aitor, Gin\u00e9s \u00c1vila-P\u00e9rez, Javier Rangel-Moreno, Kevin Chiem, Marta L DeDiego, and Luis Martinez-Sobrido.

To overcome this problem, we and others have generated recombinant IAV expressing fluorescent or luciferase reporter genes. These foreign reporter genes can be used as valid surrogates to track the presence of virus. However, the limited capacity for incorporating foreign sequences in the viral genome forced researchers to select a fluorescent or a luciferase reporter gene, depending on the type of study. To circumvent this limitation, we engineered a novel recombinant replication-competent bireporter IAV (BIRFLU) expressing both fluorescent and luciferase reporter genes. In cultured cells, BIRFLU displayed growth kinetics comparable to those of wild-type (WT) virus and was used to screen neutralizing antibodies or compounds with antiviral activity. The expression of two reporter genes allows monitoring of viral inhibition by fluorescence or bioluminescence, overcoming the limitations associated with the use of one reporter gene as a readout. \u003Ci\u003EIn vivo\u003C\/i\u003E, BIRFLU effectively infected mice, and both reporter genes were detected using \u003Ci\u003Ein vivo\u003C\/i\u003E imaging systems (IVIS). The ability to generate recombinant IAV harboring multiple foreign genes opens unique possibilities for studying virus-host interactions and for using IAV in high-throughput screenings (HTS) to identify novel antivirals that can be incorporated into the therapeutic armamentarium to control IAV infections. Moreover, the ability to genetically manipulate the viral genome to express two foreign genes offers the possibility of developing novel influenza vaccines and the feasibility for using recombinant IAV as vaccine vectors to treat other pathogen infections.IMPORTANCE Influenza A virus (IAV) causes a human respiratory disease that is associated with significant health and economic consequences.

As with other viruses, studying IAV requires the use of laborious secondary approaches to detect the presence of the virus in infected cells and\/or in animal models of infection. This limitation has been recently circumvented with the generation of recombinant IAVs expressing easily traceable fluorescent or bioluminescent (luciferase) reporter proteins. However, researchers have been forced to select fluorescent or luciferase reporter genes due to the restricted capacity of the IAV genome for including foreign sequences. To overcome this limitation, we have generated a recombinant replication-competent bi-reporter IAV (BIRFLU) stably expressing both a fluorescent and a luciferase reporter gene to easily track IAV infections in vitro and in vivo. To this end, the viral non-structural (NS) and hemagglutinin (HA) viral segments of influenza A\/Puerto Rico\/8\/34 H1N1 (PR8) were modified to encode the fluorescent Venus and the bioluminescent Nanoluc luciferase proteins, respectively. Here, we describe the use of BIRFLU in a mouse model of IAV infection and the detection of both reporter genes using an in vivo imaging system. Notably, we have observed a good correlation between the expressions of both reporters and viral replication. The combination of cutting-edge techniques in molecular biology, animal research and imaging technologies, provides researchers the unique opportunity to use this tool for influenza research, including the study of virus-host interactions and dynamics of viral infections. Importantly, the feasibility to genetically alter the viral genome to express two foreign genes from different viral segments opens up opportunities to use this approach for: (i) the development of novel IAV vaccines, (ii) the generation of recombinant IAVs that can be used as vaccine vectors for the treatment of other human pathogen infections.\u003C\/p\u003E\n\u003C\/div\u003E\n        \n  \u003C\/div\u003E\n\u003C\/article\u003E\n\u003C\/li\u003E\n \u003Cli\u003E\n\u003Carticle class=\u0022bibcite-reference bibcite bibcite--teaser\u0022\u003E\n  \n  \n  \n\n  \u003Cdiv class=\u0022bibcite__content\u0022\u003E\n    \u003Cdiv class=\u0022bibcite-citation\u0022\u003E\n      \u003Cdiv class=\u0022csl-bib-body\u0022\u003E\u003Cdiv class=\u0022csl-entry\u0022\u003EOladunni, Fatai S, Jun-Gyu Park, Paula A Pino, Olga Gonzalez, Anwari Akhter, Anna Allu\u00e9-Guardia, Ang\u00e9lica Olmo-Font\u00e1nez, et al.

K18 hACE2\u00a0transgenic mice are, therefore, highly susceptible to SARS-CoV-2 infection and represent a suitable animal model for the study of viral pathogenesis, and for identification and characterization of vaccines (prophylactic) and antivirals (therapeutics) for SARS-CoV-2 infection and associated severe COVID-19 disease.\u003C\/p\u003E\n\u003C\/div\u003E\n        \n  \u003C\/div\u003E\n\u003C\/article\u003E\n\u003C\/li\u003E\n \u003Cli\u003E\n\u003Carticle class=\u0022bibcite-reference bibcite bibcite--teaser\u0022\u003E\n  \n  \n  \n\n  \u003Cdiv class=\u0022bibcite__content\u0022\u003E\n    \u003Cdiv class=\u0022bibcite-citation\u0022\u003E\n      \u003Cdiv class=\u0022csl-bib-body\u0022\u003E\u003Cdiv class=\u0022csl-entry\u0022\u003ESingh, Dhiraj Kumar, Bindu Singh, Shashank R Ganatra, Michal Gazi, Journey Cole, Rajesh Thippeshappa, Kendra J Alfson, et al.

Here, we compare acute severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) infection in young and old rhesus macaques, baboons and old marmosets. Macaques had clinical signs of viral infection, mild to moderate pneumonitis and extra-pulmonary pathologies, and both age groups recovered in two weeks. Baboons had prolonged viral RNA shedding and substantially more lung inflammation compared with macaques. Inflammation in bronchoalveolar lavage was increased in old versus young baboons. Using techniques including computed tomography imaging, immunophenotyping, and alveolar\/peripheral cytokine response and immunohistochemical analyses, we delineated cellular immune responses to SARS-CoV-2 infection in macaque and baboon lungs, including innate and adaptive immune cells and a prominent type-I interferon response. Macaques developed T-cell memory phenotypes\/responses and bystander cytokine production. Old macaques had lower titres of SARS-CoV-2-specific IgG antibody levels compared with young macaques. Acute respiratory distress in macaques and baboons recapitulates the progression of COVID-19 in humans, making them suitable as models to test vaccines and therapies.\u003C\/p\u003E\n\u003C\/div\u003E\n        \n  \u003C\/div\u003E\n\u003C\/article\u003E\n\u003C\/li\u003E\n\u003C\/ul\u003E\n  \u003Cnav role=\u0022navigation\u0022 aria-labelledby=\u0022pagination-for-tracking-viral-infections-in-vitro-and-in-vivo-tracking-viral-infections-in-cultured-cells-and-validated-animal-models-of-infection-publications-lop\u0022 id=pager-heading\u003E\n    \u003Ch3 id=\u0022pagination-for-tracking-viral-infections-in-vitro-and-in-vivo-tracking-viral-infections-in-cultured-cells-and-validated-animal-models-of-infection-publications-lop\u0022 class=\u0022visually-hidden\u0022\u003Epagination for tracking viral infections in vitro and in vivo tracking viral infections in cultured cells and validated animal models of infection publications lop\u003C\/h3\u003E\n    \u003Cul class=\u0022js-pager__items pager-mini\u0022\u003E\n            \u003Cli class=\u0022current\u0022\u003E\n        \u003Cspan aria-live=\u0022polite\u0022\u003E\n            \u003Cspan class=\u0022visually-hidden\u0022\u003ETracking Viral Infections In Vitro and In Vivo - Tracking viral infections in cultured cells and validated animal models of infection - Publications LOP\u003C\/span\u003E\n            1 of 2\n          \u003C\/span\u003E      \u003C\/li\u003E\n              \u003Cli\u003E\n          \u003Ca href=\u0022\/lms-lab\/refresh-widget-content\/2950?page=1\u0026amp;selector=list-of-posts\u0026amp;pagerid=pager-heading\u0026amp;moreid=node-readmore\u0022 class=\u0022use-ajax next\u0022 rel=\u0022next\u0022\u003E\u003Cspan aria-hidden=\u0022true\u0022\u003E\u203a\u203a\u003C\/span\u003E\u003Cspan class=\u0022visually-hidden\u0022\u003ENext page\u003C\/span\u003E\u003C\/a\u003E\n        \u003C\/li\u003E\n          \u003C\/ul\u003E\n  \u003C\/nav\u003E\n\n\u003Cdiv class=\u0022node-readmore\u0022 id=node-readmore\u003E\u003C\/div\u003E\n","settings":null},{"command":"insert","method":"replaceWith","selector":"#","data":"","settings":null},{"command":"insert","method":"replaceWith","selector":"#","data":"","settings":null},{"command":"insert","method":"replaceWith","selector":".field--name-field-widget-title","data":"","settings":null}]
