Borna disease virus (BDV) is a highly neurotropic, noncytolytic virus. Experimentally infected B10.BR mice remain healthy unless specific antiviral T cells that infiltrate the infected brain are triggered by immunization. In contrast, infected MRL mice spontaneously mount an antiviral T-cell response that can result in meningoencephalitis and neurological disease. The antiviral T cells may, alternatively, eliminate the virus without inducing disease if they are present in sufficient numbers before the virus replicates to high titers. Since the immune response of H-2(k) mice is directed mainly against the epitope TELEISSI located in the viral nucleoprotein N, we generated BDV mutants that feature TQLEISSI in place of TELEISSI. We show that adoptive transfer of BDV N-specific CD8 T cells induced neurological disease in B10.BR mice persistently infected with wild-type BDV but not with the mutant virus expressing TQLEISSI. Surprisingly, the mutant virus replicated less well in adult MRL wild-type mice than in mutant mice lacking mature CD8 T cells. Furthermore, when MRL mice were infected with the TQLEISSI-expressing BDV mutant as newborns, neurological disease was observed, although at a lower rate and with slower kinetics than in mice infected with wild-type virus. These results confirm that TELEISSI is the major CD8 T-cell epitope in H-2(k) mice and suggest that unidentified minor epitopes are present in the BDV proteome which are recognized rather efficiently by antiviral T cells if the dominant epitope is absent.  相似文献

Borna disease virus (BDV) induces a nonpurulent CD4- and CD8-T-cell-dependent meningoencephalitis in susceptible animals. Upon intracerebral infection, BDV replicates in the mouse central nervous system (CNS), but only a few mouse strains develop neurological disorder. The antiviral T cells appear to suppress BDV replication by a noncytolytic mechanism. Since BDV does not replicate in standard mouse cell cultures, the putative role of gamma interferon (IFN-gamma) in virus control could not be tested experimentally. Here, we report that mouse organotypic slice cultures can be used to elucidate the complex interactions of BDV, the CNS, and the immune system. We show that BDV replicated in various cell types of mouse cerebellar slice cultures in vitro. In infected slice cultures, a moderate upregulation of the chemokine genes CCL5 and CXCL10 was observed, while expression of various neural genes as well as other chemokine and cytokine genes was not altered. IFN-gamma inhibited the multiplication of BDV in cerebellar and hippocampal slice cultures in a dose-dependent manner. However, while complete suppression of BDV was observed in cerebellar slice cultures, inhibition was incomplete in hippocampal slice cultures. Kinetic studies indicated that IFN-gamma protects noninfected cells from infection rather than clearing the virus from infected cells. These results demonstrate that BDV can replicate in cultured neural cells of the mouse if organ integrity is well preserved. They further show that IFN-gamma is a powerful inhibitor of BDV in the absence of blood-borne leukocytes in mouse cerebellar slice cultures.  相似文献

The nucleoprotein (N) of Borna disease virus (BDV) is the major target of the disease-inducing antiviral CD8 T-cell response in the central nervous system of mice. We established two transgenic mouse lines which express BDV-N in either neurons (Neuro-N) or astrocytes (Astro-N). Despite strong transgene expression, neurological disease or gross behavioral abnormalities were not observed in these animals. When Neuro-N mice were infected as adults, replication of BDV was severely impaired and was restricted to brain areas with a low density of transgene-expressing cells. Notably, the virus failed to replicate in the transgene-expressing granular and pyramidal neurons of the hippocampus (which are usually the preferred host cells of BDV). When Neuro-N mice were infected within the first 5 days of life, replication of BDV was not suppressed in most neurons, presumably because the onset of transgene expression in the brain occurred after these cells became infected with BDV. Astro-N mice remained susceptible to BDV infection, but they were resistant to BDV-induced neurological disorder. Unlike their nontransgenic littermates, Neuro-N mice with persistent BDV infection did not develop neurological disease after immunization with a vaccinia virus vector expressing BDV-N. In contrast to the situation in wild-type mice, this treatment also failed to induce N-specific CD8 T cells in the spleens of both transgenic mouse lines. Thus, while resistance to BDV infection in N-expressing neurons appeared to result from untimely expression of a viral nucleocapsid component, the resistance to BDV-induced neuropathology probably resulted from immunological tolerance.  相似文献

The role of gamma interferon (IFN-gamma) in the permanent control of infection with a noncytopathic virus was studied by comparing immune responses in wild-type and IFN-gamma-deficient (IFN-gamma -/-) mice infected with a slowly invasive strain of lymphocytic choriomeningitis virus (LCMV Armstrong). While wild-type mice rapidly cleared the infection, IFN-gamma -/- mice became chronically infected. Virus persistence in the latter mice did not reflect failure to generate cytotoxic T-lymphocyte (CTL) effectors, as an unimpaired primary CTL response was observed. Furthermore, while ex vivo CTL activity gradually declined in wild-type mice, long-standing cytolytic activity was demonstrated in IFN-gamma -/- mice. The prolonged effector phase in infected IFN-gamma -/- mice was associated with elevated numbers of CD8(+) T cells. Moreover, a higher proportion of these cells retained an activated phenotype and was actively cycling. However, despite the increased CD8(+) T-cell turnover, which might have resulted in depletion of the memory CTL precursor pool, no evidence for exhaustion was observed. In fact, at 3 months postinfection we detected higher numbers of LCMV-specific CTL precursors in IFN-gamma -/- mice than in wild-type mice. These findings indicate that in the absence of IFN-gamma, CTLs cannot clear the infection and are kept permanently activated by the continuous presence of live virus, resulting in a delicate new balance between viral load and immunity. This interpretation of our findings is supported by mathematical modeling describing the effect of eliminating IFN-gamma-mediated antiviral activity on the dynamics between virus replication and CTL activity.  相似文献

The current studies demonstrate complex and seemingly contradictory effects by gamma interferon (IFN-gamma) on Friend virus (FV) infection. Both temporal and tissue-specific effects were observed. During the first week of infection, IFN-gamma-deficiency caused increased levels of FV infection in multiple tissues. Surprisingly, however, by 2 weeks postinfection, IFN-gamma-deficient mice had significantly lower levels of infection in both the spleen and bone marrow compared to wild-type mice. The rapid reduction of virus in the IFN-gamma-deficient mice correlated with a more rapid virus-neutralizing antibody response than was observed in the wild-type mice. Furthermore, the virus-neutralizing antibody response in wild-type mice could be accelerated by ablation of their IFN-gamma response. Although the IFN-gamma-deficient mice developed an accelerated virus-neutralizing antibody response, they did not class-switch to immunoglobulin G class immunoglobulins nor could they maintain long-term virus-neutralizing antibody titers. Eventually, all of the IFN-gamma-deficient mice failed to keep persistent virus in check and developed fatal FV-induced erythroleukemia.  相似文献

Sindbis virus (SINV) is an alphavirus that causes infection of neurons and encephalomyelitis in adult immunocompetent mice. Recovery can occur without apparent neurological damage. To better define the factors facilitating noncytolytic clearance of SINV in different regions of the central nervous system (CNS) and the roles of innate and adaptive immune responses at different times during infection, we have characterized SINV infection and clearance in the brain, brain stem, and spinal cords of severe combined immunodeficiency (SCID) and C57BL/6 (wild-type [WT]) mice and mice deficient in beta interferon (IFN-beta) (BKO), antibody (muMT), IFN-gamma (GKO), IFN-gamma receptor (GRKO), and both antibody and IFN-gamma (muMT/GKO). WT mice cleared infectious virus by day 8, while SCID mice had persistent virus replication at all sites. For 3 days after infection, BKO mice had higher titers at all sites than WT mice, despite similar IFN-alpha production, but cleared virus similarly. GKO and GRKO mice cleared infectious virus from all sites by days 8 to 10 and, like WT mice, displayed transient reactivation at 12 to 22 days. muMT mice did not clear virus from the brain, and clearance from the brain stem and lumbar spinal cord was delayed, followed by reactivation. Eighty-one days after infection, muMT/GKO mice had not cleared virus from any site, but titers were lower than for SCID mice. These studies show that IFN-beta is independently important for early control of CNS virus replication, that antiviral antibody is critical for clearance from the brain, and that both antibody and IFN-gamma contribute to prevention of reactivation after initial clearance.  相似文献

Borna disease virus (BDV) can persistently infect the central nervous system (CNS) of mice. The infection remains nonsymptomatic as long as antiviral CD8 T cells do not infiltrate the infected brain. BDV mainly infects neurons which reportedly carry few, if any, major histocompatibility complex class I molecules on the surface. Therefore, it remains unclear whether T cells can recognize replicating virus in these cells or whether cross-presentation of viral antigen by other cell types is important for immune recognition of BDV. To distinguish between these possibilities, we used two lines of transgenic mice that strongly express the N protein of BDV in either neurons (Neuro-N) or astrocytes (Astro-N). Since these animals are tolerant to the neo-self-antigen, we adoptively transferred T cells with specificity for BDV N. In nontransgenic mice persistently infected with BDV, the transferred cells accumulated in the brain parenchyma along with immune cells of host origin and efficiently induced neurological disease. Neurological disease was also observed if antiviral T cells were injected into the brains of Astro-N or Neuro-N but not nontransgenic control mice. Our results demonstrate that CD8 T cells can recognize foreign antigen on neurons and astrocytes even in the absence of infection or inflammation, indicating that these CNS cell types are playing an active role in immune recognition of viruses.  相似文献

We evaluated the role of gamma interferon (IFN-gamma) in protecting neurons from virus-induced injury following central nervous system infection. IFN-gamma(-/-) and IFN-gamma(+/+) mice of the resistant major histocompatibility complex (MHC) H-2(b) haplotype and intracerebrally infected with Theiler's murine encephalomyelitis virus (TMEV) cleared virus infection from anterior horn cell neurons. IFN-gamma(+/+) H-2(b) mice also cleared virus from the spinal cord white matter, whereas IFN-gamma(-/-) H-2(b) mice developed viral persistence in glial cells of the white matter and exhibited associated spinal cord demyelination. In contrast, infection of IFN-gamma(-/-) mice of the susceptible H-2(q) haplotype resulted in frequent deaths and severe neurologic deficits within 16 days of infection compared to the results obtained for controls. Morphologic analysis demonstrated severe injury to spinal cord neurons in IFN-gamma(-/-) H-2(q) mice during early infection. More virus RNA was detected in the brain and spinal cord of IFN-gamma(-/-) H-2(q) mice than in those of control mice at 14 and 21 days after TMEV infection. Virus antigen was localized predominantly to anterior horn cells in infected IFN-gamma(-/-) H-2(q) mice. IFN-gamma deletion did not affect the humoral response directed against the virus. However, the level of expression of CD4, CD8, class I MHC, or class II MHC in the central nervous system of IFN-gamma(-/-) H-2(q) mice was lower than those in IFN-gamma(+/+) H-2(q) mice. Finally, in vitro analysis of virus-induced death in NSC34 cells and spinal motor neurons showed that IFN-gamma exerted a neuroprotective effect in the absence of other aspects of the immune response. These data support the hypothesis that IFN-gamma plays a critical role in protecting spinal cord neurons from persistent infection and death.  相似文献

We have used the Friend virus model to determine the basic mechanisms by which the immune system can control persistent retroviral infections. Previously we showed that CD4(+) T cells play an essential role in keeping persistent retrovirus in check. The present in vitro experiments with a Friend virus-specific CD4(+) T-cell clone revealed that these cells produce gamma interferon (IFN-gamma), which acts with two distinct mechanisms of antiviral activity. First, IFN-gamma had a direct inhibitory effect on virus production. This inhibitory effect was noncytolytic and, interestingly, was not associated with decreased cell surface expression of viral antigens. The second mechanism of IFN-gamma-mediated antiviral activity was an enhancement of CD4(+) T-cell-mediated cytolytic activity. We also found an in vivo role for IFN-gamma in the control of persistent Friend virus infections. Neutralization of IFN-gamma in persistently infected mice resulted in significantly increased levels of virus in the spleen, and a significant percentage of IFN-gamma-deficient mice were unable to maintain long-term control over Friend virus infections.  相似文献

Borna disease virus (BDV) is a neurotropic nonsegmented negative-stranded RNA virus that persistently infects warm-blooded animals. In horses and other natural animal hosts, infections with BDV cause meningoencephalitis and behavioral disturbances. Experimental infection of adult mice takes a nonsymptomatic course, an observation previously believed to indicate that this animal species is not suitable for pathogenesis studies. We now demonstrate that BDV frequently induces severe neurological disease in infected newborn mice. Signs of neurological disease were first observed 4 to 6 weeks after intracerebral infection. They included a characteristic nonphysiological position of the hind limbs at an early stage of the disease and paraparesis at a later stage. Histological examination revealed large numbers of perivascular and meningeal inflammatory cells in brains of diseased mice and, unexpectedly, no increase in immunoreactivity to glial fibrillar acidic protein. The incidence and severity of BDV-induced disease varied dramatically among mouse strains. While only 13% of the infected C57BL/6 mice showed disease symptoms, which were mostly transient, more than 80% of the infected MRL mice developed severe neurological disorder. In spite of these differences in susceptibility to disease, BDV replicated to comparable levels in the brains of mice of the various strains used. Intracerebral infections of newborn β2-microglobulin-deficient C57BL/6 and MRL mice, which both lack CD8+ T cells, did not result in meningoencephalitis or neurological disease, indicating that the BDV-induced neurological disorder in mice is a cytotoxic T-cell-mediated immunopathological process. With this new animal model it should now be possible to characterize the disease-inducing immune response to BDV in more detail.  相似文献

Targeted expression of biologically active interleukin-12 (IL-12) in astrocytes of the central nervous system (CNS) results in spontaneous neuroimmunological disease of aged mice. Borna disease virus (BDV) can readily multiply in the mouse CNS but does not trigger disease in most strains. Here we show that a large percentage of IL-12 transgenic mice developed severe ataxia within 5 to 10 weeks after infection with BDV. By contrast, no disease developed in mock-infected IL-12 transgenic and wild-type mice until 4 months of age. Neurological symptoms were rare in infected wild-type animals, and if they occurred, these were milder and appeared later. Histological analyses showed that the cerebellum of infected IL-12 transgenic mice, which is the brain region with strongest transgene expression, contained large numbers of CD4(+) and CD8(+) T cells as well as lower numbers of B cells, whereas other parts of the CNS showed only mild infiltration by lymphocytes. The cerebellum of diseased mice further showed severe astrogliosis, calcifications and signs of neurodegeneration. BDV antigen and nucleic acids were present in lower amounts in the inflamed cerebellum of infected transgenic mice than in the noninflamed cerebellum of infected wild-type littermates, suggesting that IL-12 or IL-12-induced cytokines exhibited antiviral activity. We propose that BDV infection accelerates the frequency by which immune cells such as lymphocytes and NK cells enter the CNS and then respond to IL-12 present in the local milieu causing disease. Our results illustrate that infection of the CNS with a virus that is benign in certain hosts can be harmful in such normally disease-resistant hosts if the tissue is unfavorably preconditioned by proinflammatory cytokines.  相似文献

CD8(+) T cells infiltrating the CNS control infection by the neurotropic JHM strain of mouse hepatitis virus. Differential susceptibility of infected cell types to clearance by perforin or IFN-gamma uncovered distinct, nonredundant roles for these antiviral mechanisms. To separately evaluate each effector function specifically in the context of CD8(+) T cells, pathogenesis was analyzed in mice deficient in both perforin and IFN-gamma (PKO/GKO) or selectively reconstituted for each function by transfer of CD8(+) T cells. Untreated PKO/GKO mice were unable to control the infection and died of lethal encephalomyelitis within 16 days, despite substantially higher CD8(+) T cell accumulation in the CNS compared with controls. Uncontrolled infection was associated with limited MHC class I up-regulation and an absence of class II expression on microglia, coinciding with decreased CD4(+) T cells in CNS infiltrates. CD8(+) T cells from perforin-deficient and wild-type donors reduced virus replication in PKO/GKO recipients. By contrast, IFN-gamma-deficient donor CD8(+) T cells did not affect virus replication. The inability of perforin-mediated mechanisms to control virus in the absence of IFN-gamma coincided with reduced class I expression. These data not only confirm direct antiviral activity of IFN-gamma within the CNS but also demonstrate IFN-gamma-dependent MHC surface expression to guarantee local T cell effector function in tissues inherently low in MHC expression. The data further imply that IFN-gamma plays a crucial role in pathogenesis by regulating the balance between virus replication in oligodendrocytes, CD8(+) T cell effector function, and demyelination.  相似文献

NK dendritic cells (NKDC) are recently described immunologic cells that possess both lytic and Ag-presenting function and produce prolific quantities of IFN-gamma. The role of NKDC in innate immunity to bacterial infection is unknown. Because IFN-gamma is important in the immune response to Listeria monocytogenes (LM), we hypothesized that NKDC play a critical role during LM infection in mice. We found that LM increased the frequency and activation state of NKDC in vivo. Using in vivo intracellular cytokine analysis, we demonstrated that NKDC are a major source of early IFN-gamma during infection with LM. Adoptive transfer of wild-type NKDC into IFN-gamma-deficient recipients that were subsequently infected with LM decreased bacterial burden in the liver and spleen and prolonged survival. In contrast, NK cells were depleted early during LM infection, produced less IFN-gamma, and conferred less protection upon adoptive transfer into IFN-gamma-deficient mice. In vitro, LM induction of IFN-gamma secretion by NKDC depended on TLR9, in addition to IL-18 and IL-12. Our study establishes NKDC as innate immune responders to bacterial infection by virtue of their ability to secrete IFN-gamma.  相似文献

T cell responses are important to the control of infection but are deleterious if not regulated. IFN-gamma-deficient mice infected with mycobacteria exhibit enhanced accumulation of activated effector T cells and neutrophils within granulomatous lesions. These cells do not control bacterial growth and compromise the integrity of the infected tissue. We show that IFN-gamma-deficient mice have increased numbers of IL-17-producing T cells following infection with Mycobacterium bovis bacille Calmette Guérin. Furthermore, exogenous IFN-gamma increases IL-12 and decreases IL-23 production by bacille Calmette Guérin-infected bone marrow-derived dendritic cells and reduces the frequency of IL-17-producing T cells induced by these bone marrow-derived dendritic cells. These data support the hypothesis that, during mycobacterial infection, both IFN-gamma- and IL-17-producing T cells are induced, but that IFN-gamma serves to limit the IL-17-producing T cell population. This counterregulation pathway may be an important factor in limiting mycobacterially associated immune-mediated pathology.  相似文献

Viral respiratory infections can cause bronchial hyperresponsiveness and exacerbate asthma. In mice, respiratory syncytial virus (RSV) infection, which induces an immune response dominated by IFN-gamma, results in airway hyperresponsiveness (AHR) and eosinophil influx into the airways, both of which are prevented by pretreatment with anti-IL-5 Ab. To delineate the role of IL-5, IL-4, and IFN-gamma in the development of RSV-induced AHR and lung eosinophilia, we tested the ability of mice deficient in each of these cytokines to develop these symptoms of RSV infection. Mice deficient in either IL-5, IL-4, or IFN-gamma were administered infectious RSV intranasally, and 6 days later, airway responsiveness to inhaled methacholine was assessed by barometric body plethysmography, and numbers of lung eosinophils and production of IFN-gamma, IL-4, and IL-5 by mononuclear cells from peribronchial lymph nodes were monitored. RSV infection resulted in airway eosinophilia and AHR in both IL-4- and IFN-gamma-deficient mice, but not in IL-5-deficient mice. Reconstitution of IL-5-deficient mice with IL-5 restored these responses and enhanced the responses in IL-4-deficient mice. Anti-VLA-4 (very late Ag-4) treatment prevented lung eosinophilia and AHR following RSV infection and IL-5 reconstitution. We conclude that in response to RSV, IL-5 is essential for the influx of eosinophils into the lung and that eosinophils in turn are critical for the development of AHR. IFN-gamma and IL-4 are not essential for these responses to RSV infection.  相似文献

Murine gammaherpesvirus is a natural rodent pathogen which causes a primary infection in the lungs and establishes a persistent infection in B lymphocytes. During the primary infection, large amounts of gamma interferon (IFN-gamma) are produced by spleen, mediastinal, and cervical lymph node cells. To investigate the role of IFN-gamma in control of the virus infection, mice lacking the cellular receptor for IFN-gamma (IFN-gamma R-/- mice) were infected with murine gammaherpesvirus 68 (MHV68). IFN-gamma R-/- mice showed no difference from wild-type mice in the titers of infectious virus in the lungs or in the rate of clearance of the lung infection. In the spleen, however, clear differences were observed. By 14 days postinfection, spleens from IFN-gamma R-/- mice were pale, shrunken, and fibrous. Histological examination showed that there was an early (day 10) infiltration of granulocytes followed by widespread destruction of splenic architecture (days 14 to 17). A marked decrease in the number of splenic B cells and CD4+ and CD8+ T cells occurred. These changes were accompanied by a 10- to 100-fold greater load of latently infected cells in IFN-gamma R-/- mice than in wild-type mice at 14 to 17 days postinfection, but this was reduced to the levels found in wild-type mice by 21 days postinfection. Treatment of the mice with the antiviral drug 2'-deoxyl-5-ethyl-beta-4'-thiouridine from 6 days postinfection did not prevent the occurrence of these changes. The changes were, however, completely reversed by depletion of CD8+ T cells prior to and during the primary infection. Depletion of CD4+ T cells also reversed the major pathological and virological changes, although in this case there was evidence of some histological changes. Thus, the lack of IFN-gamma receptor had profound consequences in spleens of MHV68-infected mice. The possible mechanisms involved in these changes are discussed.  相似文献

Infection of the central nervous system (CNS) with the neurotropic JHM strain of mouse hepatitis virus produces acute and chronic demyelination. The contributions of perforin-mediated cytolysis and gamma interferon (IFN-gamma) secretion by CD8(+) T cells to the control of infection and the induction of demyelination were examined by adoptive transfer into infected SCID recipients. Untreated SCID mice exhibited uncontrolled virus replication in all CNS cell types but had little or no demyelination. Memory CD8(+) T cells from syngeneic wild-type (wt), perforin-deficient, or IFN-gamma-deficient (GKO) donors all trafficked into the infected CNS in the absence of CD4(+) T cells and localized to similar areas. Although CD8(+) T cells from all three donors suppressed virus replication in the CNS, GKO CD8(+) T cells expressed the least antiviral activity. A distinct viral antigen distribution in specific CNS cell types revealed different mechanisms of viral control. While wt CD8(+) T cells inhibited virus replication in all CNS cell types, cytolytic activity in the absence of IFN-gamma suppressed the infection of astrocytes, but not oligodendroglia. In contrast, cells that secreted IFN-gamma but lacked cytolytic activity inhibited replication in oligodendroglia, but not astrocytes. Demyelination was most severe following viral control by wt CD8(+) T cells but was independent of macrophage infiltration. These data demonstrate the effective control of virus replication by CD8(+) T cells in the absence of CD4(+) T cells and support the necessity for the expression of distinct effector mechanisms in the control of viral replication in distinct CNS glial cell types.  相似文献

The contribution of IFN-gamma from bone marrow (BM) and non-BM-derived cells to glomerular and cutaneous delayed-type hypersensitivity (DTH) was studied in mice. Chimeric IFN-gamma mice (IFN-gamma(+/+) BM chimera), in which IFN-gamma production was restricted to BM-derived cells, were created by transplanting normal C57BL/6 (wild-type (WT)) BM into irradiated IFN-gamma-deficient mice. BM IFN-gamma-deficient chimeric mice (IFN-gamma(-/-) BM chimera) were created by transplanting WT mice with IFN-gamma-deficient BM. WT and sham chimeric mice (WT mice transplanted with WT BM) developed crescentic glomerulonephritis (GN) with features of DTH (including glomerular T cell and macrophage infiltration) in response to an Ag planted in their glomeruli and skin DTH following subdermal Ag challenge. IFN-gamma-deficient mice showed significant protection from crescentic GN and reduced cutaneous DTH. IFN-gamma(+/+) BM chimeric and IFN-gamma(-/-) BM chimeric mice showed similar attenuation of crescentic GN as IFN-gamma-deficient mice, whereas cutaneous DTH was reduced only in IFN-gamma(-/-) BM chimeras. In crescentic GN, IFN-gamma was expressed by tubular cells and occasional glomerular cells and was colocalized with infiltrating CD8(+) T cells, but not with CD4(+) T cells or macrophages. Renal MHC class II expression was reduced in IFN-gamma(+/+) BM chimeric mice and was more severely reduced in IFN-gamma-deficient mice and IFN-gamma(-/-) BM chimeric mice. These studies show that IFN-gamma expression by both BM-derived cells and intrinsic renal cells is required for the development of crescentic GN, but IFN-gamma production by resident cells is not essential for the development of cutaneous DTH.  相似文献
