Abstrakt: | Alcelaphine gammaherpesvirus 1 (AlHV-1) asymptomatically persists in its natural host, the wildebeest. However, cross-species transmission to cattle results in the induction of an acute and lethal peripheral T cell lymphoma-like disease (PTCL), named malignant catarrhal fever (MCF). Our previous findings demonstrated an essential role for viral genome maintenance in infected CD8 + T lymphocytes but the exact mechanism(s) leading to lymphoproliferation and MCF remained unknown. To decipher how AlHV-1 dysregulates T lymphocytes, we first examined the global phenotypic changes in circulating CD8 + T cells after experimental infection of calves. T cell receptor repertoire together with transcriptomics and epigenomics analyses demonstrated an oligoclonal expansion of infected CD8 + T cells displaying effector and exhaustion gene signatures, including GZMA, GNLY, PD-1, and TOX2 expression. Then, among viral genes expressed in infected CD8 + T cells, we uncovered A10 that encodes a transmembrane signaling protein displaying multiple tyrosine residues, with predicted ITAM and SH3 motifs. Impaired A10 expression did not affect AlHV-1 replication in vitro but rendered AlHV-1 unable to induce MCF. Furthermore, A10 was phosphorylated in T lymphocytes in vitro and affected T cell signaling. Finally, while AlHV-1 mutants expressing mutated forms of A10 devoid of ITAM or SH3 motifs (or both) were able to induce MCF, a recombinant virus expressing a mutated form of A10 unable to phosphorylate its tyrosine residues resulted in the lack of MCF and protected against a wild-type virus challenge. Thus, we could characterize the nature of this γ-herpesvirus-induced PTCL-like disease and identify an essential mechanism explaining its development.
