Strains of Sindbis virus differ in their virulence for mice of different ages; this variation is related in large part to variations in the amino acid compositions of E1 and E2, the surface glycoproteins. The comparative pathogenesis of Sindbis virus strains which are virulent or avirulent for newborn mice has not been previously examined. We have studied the diseases caused by a virulent wild-type strain, AR339, and two less virulent laboratory strains, Toto1101 and HRSP (HR small plaque). After peripheral inoculation of 1,000 PFU, AR339 causes 100% mortality within 5 days (50% lethal dose [LD50] = 3 PFU) while Toto1101 causes 70% mortality (LD50 = 10(2.4) PFU) and HRSP causes 50 to 60% mortality (LD50 = 10(5.1) PFU) with most deaths occurring 7 to 11 days after infection. However, after intracerebral inoculation of 1,000 PFU, Toto1101 is virulent (100% mortality within 5 days; LD50 = 4 PFU) while HRSP is not (75% mortality; LD50 = 10(4.2) PFU). After intracerebral inoculation, all three strains initiate new virus formation within 4 h, but HRSP reaches a plateau of 10(6) PFU/g of brain while Toto1101 and AR339 replicate to a level of 10(8) to 10(9) PFU/g of brain within 24 h. Interferon induction parallels virus growth. Mice infected with HRSP develop persistent central nervous system infection (10(6) PFU/g of brain) until the initiation of a virus-specific immune response 7 to 8 days after infection when virus clearance begins. The distribution of virus in the brains of mice was similar, but the virus was more abundant in the case of AR339. HRSP continued to spread until day 9. Clearance from the brain was complete by day 17. We conclude that the decreased virulence of HRSP is due to an intrinsic decreased ability of this strain of Sindbis virus to grow in neural cells of the mouse. We also conclude that CD-1 mice do not respond to the antigens of Sindbis virus until approximately 1 week of age. This lack of response does not lead to tolerance and persistent infection but rather to late virus clearance whenever the immune response is initiated. 相似文献

To identify which RNA segments of the California serogroup bunyaviruses determine virulence, we prepared reassortant viruses by coinfecting BHK-21 cells with two wild-type parents, La Crosse/original and Tahyna/181-57 viruses, which differed about 30,000-fold in virulence. The progeny clones were screened by polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis to ascertain the phenotype of the M and S RNA segments, and RNA-RNA hybridization was used to determine the genotype of selected clones. Two or three clones of each of the six possible reassortant genotypes were characterized quantitatively for neuroinvasiveness by determining the PFU/50% lethal dose (LD50) ratio after subcutaneous injection into suckling mice. The reassortants fell into two groups. (i) Six of seven reassortants with a La Crosse M RNA segment were as virulent as the parent La Crosse virus (about 1 PFU/LD50); the one exception was strikingly different (about 1,000 PFU/LD50) and probably represents a spontaneous mutant. (ii) The seven reassortants with a Tahyna M RNA segment were about 10-fold more virulent than the parent Tahyna virus (median 1,600 PFU/LD50 for reassortants and 16,000 PFU/LD50 for Tahyna virus). A comparative pathogenesis study in suckling mice of one reassortant virus and the parent Tahyna virus confirmed the greater neuroinvasiveness of the reassortant virus. From these data it was concluded that the M RNA segment was the major determinant of virulence, but that the other two gene segments could modulate the virulence of a nonneuroinvasive California serogroup virus. 相似文献

Following peripheral inoculation of experimental animals, herpes simplex virus type 2 (HSV-2) strains are more virulent than HSV-1 strains, and clinical studies suggest that they possess enhanced virulence in humans. One dramatic type-specific difference in virulence is observed following inoculation of the chorioallantoic membrane (CAM) of the chicken embryo: HSV-2, but not HSV-1, makes large pocks on the CAM, invades the mesoderm, generalizes in the embryo, and kills the chicken. These properties have been believed to be specific for HSV-2, and their molecular basis is unknown. We now report that an HSV-1 strain, ANG, behaves even more efficiently than HSV-2. In addition, we have transferred restriction fragments of ANG DNA to another HSV-1 strain, 17 syn+, conferring the CAM virulence phenotype on the normally CAM-avirulent 17 syn+. Like ANG, these recombinant viruses are 10(6)-fold more virulent (PFU/50%) lethal dose [LD50] ratio, less than or equal to 10(2)) than the parental 17 syn+ strain (PFU/LD50 ratio, greater than or equal to 10(8)). A molecularly cloned library of ANG DNA was used to identify two distinct regions containing the virulence functions. Transfer of sequences contained in either cloned ANG EcoRI fragment A (0.49 to 0.64 map units) or F (0.32 to 0.42 map units) DNA to 17 syn+ confers CAM virulence, whereas other cloned regions of the ANG genome do not. Using cloned DNA, we derived and plaque purified several virulent recombinant viruses with inserts from either the ANG EcoRI fragment A (INV-I) or F (INV-II) areas. In each instance, the transfer of the cloned INV-I or INV-II sequences enhanced virulence for the chicken embryo 10(6)-fold (PFU/LD50 ratio, less than or equal to 10(2]. In addition, the transfer of the cloned ANG EcoRI-F INV-II sequences resulted in a 10(3)-fold enhancement of neuroinvasiveness and virulence for mice. Following footpad inoculation, these recombinants kill mice with a PFU/LD50 ratio of approximately 10(3) (similar to HSV-2 strains) compared with 10(6) for 17 syn+. Thus, we have identified, cloned, and transferred two DNA regions from HSV-1 ANG which contain virulence genes (INV-I and INV-II) important in mesodermal invasiveness on the CAM and, in the case of INV-II, neuroinvasiveness in the mouse. In each instance, the recombinant HSV-1 viruses have attained enhanced virulence beyond that described for HSV-1 strains and similar to that seen with HSV-2.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 400 WORDS) 相似文献

Infectious pancreatic necrosis viruses (IPNVs) exhibit a wide range of virulence in salmonid species. In previous studies, we have shown that the amino acid residues at positions 217 and 221 in VP2 are implicated in virulence. To pinpoint the molecular determinants of virulence in IPNV, we generated recombinant IPNV strains using the cRNA-based reverse-genetics system. In two virulent strains, residues at positions 217 and 247 were replaced by the corresponding amino acids of a low-virulence strain. The growth characteristics of the recovered chimeric strains in cell culture were similar to the low-virulence strains, and these viruses induced significantly lower mortality in Atlantic salmon fry than the parent strains did in in vivo challenge studies. Furthermore, the virulent strain was serially passaged in CHSE-214 cells 10 times and was completely characterized by nucleotide sequencing. Deduced amino acid sequence analyses revealed a single amino acid substitution of Ala to Thr at position 221 in VP2 of this virus, which became highly attenuated and induced 15% cumulative mortality in Atlantic salmon fry, compared to 68% mortality induced by the virulent parent strain. The attenuated strain grows to higher titers in CHSE cells and can be distinguished antigenically from the wild-type virus by use of a monoclonal antibody. However, the virulent strain passaged 10 times in RTG-2 cells was stable, and it retained its antigenicity and virulence. Our results indicate that residues Thr at position 217 (Thr217) and Ala221 of VP2 are the major determinants of virulence in IPNV of the Sp serotype. Highly virulent isolates possess residues Thr217 and Ala221; moderate- to low-virulence strains have Pro217 and Ala221; and strains containing Thr221 are almost avirulent, irrespective of the residue at position 217. 相似文献

Thirteen strains of Sendai virus isolated from various sources in the 1950's and after 1976 were compared for their reactivities with monoclonal antibodies prepared against the prototype strain MN of Sendai virus. Results revealed that while the 5 strains isolated in the 1950's reacted with all the monoclonal antibodies as the prototype strain did, the 2 strains isolated in 1976 and 1978 did not react with an F-specific monoclonal antibody, and the other 6 strains isolated after 1978 lacked reactivity with an HN-specific monoclonal antibody. 相似文献

Twenty-four randomly selected clinical and environmental Vibrio vulnificus isolates were tested for virulence in iron-overloaded mice (250 mg of iron dextran per kg of body weight). The log10 50% lethal doses of 17 isolates were lower by greater than or equal to 3.5 log10 units in iron-overloaded mice than in control mice. These isolates were classified as virulent. The 50% lethal doses of these virulent isolates were also lower in mice that were immunosuppressed by treatment with cyclophosphamide (150 mg/kg). Four of the seven isolates initially classified as avirulent were virulent in mice that were simultaneously iron overloaded and immunosuppressed. These isolates were classified as moderately virulent. The remaining three isolates were avirulent under all conditions. The incidence of virulent strains among clinical and environmental isolates did not differ. The virulent isolates produced high titers of hemolysin, were resistant to inactivation by serum complement, produced phenolate siderophore, and utilized transferrin-bound iron. The moderately virulent isolates differed from the virulent isolates only in their increased sensitivity to inactivation by serum complement. The avirulent isolates differed from those of the other two classes in their inability to either produce significant amounts of phenolate siderophore or utilize transferrin-bound iron. A modified agar plate diffusion method for transferrin-bound iron utilization was developed to differentiate the two classes of virulent isolates from the avirulent isolates in vitro. 相似文献

Eastern equine encephalitis virus (EEEV) causes sporadic epidemics of human and equine disease in North America, but South American strains have seldom been associated with human neurologic disease or mortality, despite serological evidence of infection. In mice, most North American and South American strains of EEEV produce neurologic disease that resembles that associated with human and equine infections. We identified a South American strain that is unable to replicate efficiently in the brain or cause fatal disease in mice yet produces 10-fold higher viremia than virulent EEEV strains. The avirulent South American strain was also sensitive to human interferon (IFN)-alpha, -beta, and -gamma, like most South American strains, in contrast to North American strains that were highly resistant. To identify genes associated with IFN sensitivity and virulence, infectious cDNA clones of a virulent North American strain and the avirulent South American strain were constructed. Two reciprocal chimeric viruses containing swapped structural and nonstructural protein gene regions of the North American and South American strains were also constructed and found to replicate efficiently in vitro. Both chimeras produced fatal disease in mice, similar to that caused by the virulent North American strain. Both chimeric viruses also exhibited intermediate sensitivity to human IFN-alpha, -beta, and -gamma compared to that of the North American and South American strains. Virulence 50% lethal dose assays and serial sacrifice experiments further demonstrated that both structural and nonstructural proteins are important contributors to neurovirulence and viral tissue tropism. Together, the results of this study emphasize the complex and important influences of structural and nonstructural protein gene regions on EEEV virulence. 相似文献

Vibrio anguillarum is part of the natural flora in the aquatic habitat, but under certain circumstances it can cause terminal hemorrhagic septicemia in marine fish due to the action of virulence-associated proteins. In our study, V. anguillarum MN and 3010 were identified as serotype O1 by AFLP analysis, and the virulence of V. anguillarum MN was shown 50-fold higher than that of the strain 3101 by LD(50) tests with Japanese flounder Paralichthys olivaceus. Nine spots were noted as differentially expressed proteins by comparing the cellular and extracellular protein profiles of V. anguillarum MN and 3101. Mass spectrometry results showed OmpU and PrtV were highly expressed in the virulent strain MN but lowly expressed in the less virulent strain 3101. Expression level confirmed by semiquantitative RT-PCR showed that ompU and prtV were indeed highly expressed in the virulent strain MN. Together with similar amino acid sequences of both OmpU and PrtV in V. anguillarum MN and 3101, our study indicated that the expression level of OmpU and PrtV may be associated with the virulence of V. anguillarum. 相似文献

In April 1983, an influenza virus of low virulence appeared in chickens in Pennsylvania. Subsequently, in October 1983, the virus became virulent and caused high mortality in poultry. The causative agent has been identified as an influenza virus of the H5N2 serotype. The hemagglutinin is antigenically closely related to tern/South Africa/61 (H5N3) and the neuraminidase is similar to that from human H2N2 strains (e.g., A/Japan/305/57) and from some avian influenza virus strains (e.g., A/turkey/Mass/66 [H6N2]). Comparison of the genome RNAs of chicken/Penn with other influenza virus isolates by RNA-RNA hybridization indicated that all of the genes of this virus were closely related to those of various other influenza virus isolates from wild birds. Chickens infected with the virulent strain shed high concentrations of virus in their feces (10(7) 50% egg infective dose per g), and the virus was isolated from the albumin and yolk of eggs layed just before death. Virus was also isolated from house flies in chicken houses. Serological and virological studies showed that humans are not susceptible to infection with the virus, but can serve as short-term mechanical carriers. Analysis of the RNA of the viruses isolated in April and October by gel migration and RNA-RNA hybridization suggested that these strains were very closely related. Oligonucleotide mapping of the individual genes of virulent and avirulent strains showed a limited number of changes in the genome RNAs, but no consistent differences between the virulent and avirulent strains that could be correlated with pathogenicity were found. Polyacrylamide gel analysis of the early (avirulent) isolates demonstrated the presence of low-molecular-weight RNA bands which is indicative of defective-interfering particles. These RNAs were not present in the virulent isolates. Experimental infection of chickens with mixtures of the avirulent and virulent strains demonstrated that the avirulent virus interferes with the pathogenicity of the virulent virus. The results suggest that the original avirulent virus was probably derived from influenza viruses from wild birds and that the virulent strain was derived from the avirulent strain by selective adaptation rather than by recombination or the introduction of a new virus into the population. This adaptation may have involved the loss of defective RNAs, as well as mutations, and thus provides a possible model for a role of defective-interfering particles in nature. 相似文献

为了寻找褐飞虱Nilaparvata lugens生物防治的新途径,用新分离出的黄绿绿僵菌Metarhiziumflavoviride(Mf82)菌株与实验室保存的黄绿绿僵菌、金龟子绿僵菌和球孢白僵菌3种菌种9个菌株作对比,测定了它们对褐飞虱成虫的毒力。结果表明:Mf82菌株对褐飞虱成虫的毒力最高,以1.0×108个孢子/mL的孢子液喷雾接种到褐飞虱成虫体表上,累积死亡率高达81.7%,LT50为4.6d,致病效果显著高于其他受测菌株。在此基础上研制了黄绿绿僵菌悬乳剂,并研究了其对褐飞虱的致病力。结果表明:随着黄绿绿僵菌浓度的增加,褐飞虱的累计死亡率增加,在浓度为1,048个孢子/mm2时,累计死亡率达到85.0%。利用时间-剂量-死亡率模型对数据进行处理,所建模型均顺利通过Hosmer-Lemeshow拟合异质性检验,表明模型拟合良好,并由模型估计出了该剂型对褐飞虱的致死剂量与致死时间。在接种后第7天和第9天,LC50值分别为2.1×103、9.9×102个孢子/mm2,LC90分别为7.8×104、3.7×104个孢子/mm2。黄绿绿僵菌悬乳剂对褐飞虱的致死时间与对数剂量相关,供试菌剂LT50值随着对数剂量的增加而递减,对数剂量由7.0增加到8.0时,LT50由8.9d降为5.7d。可见该黄绿绿僵菌悬乳剂对褐飞虱具有较强的毒力,在褐飞虱生物防治中具有广阔的应用前景。 相似文献

Marek’s disease virus (MDV), a commercially important disease of poultry, has become substantially more virulent over the last 60 years. This evolution was presumably a consequence of changes in virus ecology associated with the intensification of the poultry industry. Here, we assess whether vaccination or reduced host life span could have generated natural selection, which favored more virulent strains. Using previously published experimental data, we estimated viral fitness under a range of cohort durations and vaccine treatments on broiler farms. We found that viral fitness maximized at intermediate virulence, as a result of a trade‐off between virulence and transmission previously reported. Our results suggest that vaccination, acting on this trade‐off, could have led to the evolution of increased virulence. By keeping the host alive, vaccination prolongs infectious periods of virulent strains. Improvements in host genetics and nutrition, which reduced broiler life spans below 50 days, could have also increased the virulence of the circulating MDV strains because shortened cohort duration reduces the impact of host death on viral fitness. These results illustrate the dramatic impact anthropogenic change can potentially have on pathogen virulence. 相似文献

Eight commonly used chemical disinfectants and physical treatments (UV irradiation and heating) were applied to both enveloped RNA viruses (Sendai virus, canine distemper virus) and unenveloped RNA viruses (Theiler's murine encephalomyelitis virus, reo virus type 3) to inactivate infectious virus particles. According to the results, alcohols (70% ethanol, 50% isopropanol), formaldehyde (2% formalin), halogen compounds (52ppm iodophor, 100ppm sodium hypochlorite), quaternary ammonium chloride (0.05% benzalkonium chloride) and 1% saponated cresol showed virucidal effects giving more than 99.95% reduction in the infectivity of virus samples of Sendai virus and canine distemper after 10 minutes exposure. There was no significant difference in the effects on the two enveloped RNA viruses. The susceptibility of unenveloped RNA viruses to chemical disinfectants and physical treatments differed greatly from the enveloped viruses. The two unenveloped viruses showed distinct resistance to 50% isopropanol, 2% formalin, 1% saponated cresol and to physical treatments (heating at 45, 56, 60 degrees C, and UV irradiation). These results indicate that using physicochemical methods to inactivate RNA viruses in laboratory animal facilities should be considered in accordance with the characteristics of the target virus. For practical purposes in disinfecting enveloped RNA viruses, 70% ethanol, 0.05% quaternary ammonium chloride and 1% saponated cresol diluted in hot water (greater than 60 degrees C) are considered as effective as UV irradiation. For unenveloped RNA viruses, halogen compounds, more than 1,000 ppm sodium hypochlorite or 260 ppm iodophor are recommended over a period of 10 minutes for disinfecting particles, although these compounds result in an oxidation problem with many metals. 相似文献

To cause disease, influenza virus must possess several genetically determined abilities that mediate stages in pathogenesis. The virulent mouse-adapted variant A/FM/1/47-MA (FM-MA), derived from the avirulent A/FM/1/47 (FM) strain, had acquired mutations in genes that control virulence. The purpose of this study was to identify those genes that had mutated to result in increased virulence and to obtain viruses that differed in virulence because of differences in individual genome segments. The genes that had mutated to increase virulence were initially identified by genetic analysis of reassortants obtained by crossing FM-MA with the avirulent strain A/HK/1/68 (HK). FM-MA genome segments 4, 5, 7, and 8 were significantly associated with virulence, as determined by using the Wilcoxon ranked sum analysis. The role of FM-MA segments 4, 7, and 8 was confirmed by reintroduction of these genes into the parental strain, which also provided virus strains that differed in virulence because of mutations in individual genome segments. Segments 4, 7, and 8 were responsible for a 10(3.6)-fold increase in virulence that was proportioned 10(2.2)-, 10(0.7)-, and 10(0.8)-fold, respectively. The role of segment 5 could not be confirmed on transfer back into the parental strain because of reversion during preparation of such reassortants. The incidence of reversion was shown to be significantly associated with culturing of FM-MA in chicken embryo cells but was not associated with growth in MDCK cells. The genetic analysis of FM-MA suggests that adaptation to increased virulence is an incremental process that involves the acquisition of mutations in multiple genes, each of which plays an individual role in pathogenesis. The structural and functional properties of segments 4, 7, and 8 that control the virulence of FM-MA can now be determined by using viruses that differ in virulence because of mutations in these individual genome segments. 相似文献

Rabbits were either inoculated with Sendai virus (SV), strain MN, or caged with virus-inoculated rabbits on the same day of the viral inoculation, and examined for viral shedding and detection of viral antigens in the respiratory tract, histopathologic changes, and serum antibodies. Infectious virus was recovered from nasal swabs at postinoculation day (PID) 3 and disappeared by PID 10. Viral antigens were detected by immunofluorescence in epithelial cells of the nasal cavities, but not of the trachea and lungs from PID 3 to PID 10, and antibodies were detected after PID 7. Rabbits had no clinical manifestations and only exhibited a moderate increase in goblet cells of the nasal epithelium. In the transmission study, virus was recovered from one of three uninoculated rabbits at postexposure day (PED) 10 and antibodies were detected at PED 15 in the same rabbit. These data suggest that, although viral multiplication was limited to the nasal epithelium, laboratory rabbits are susceptible to Sendai virus infection. 相似文献

Virus obtained during serial plaque passage of the virulent parent egg seed (PES) of the Trinidad strain of Venezuelan equine encephalomyelitis (VEE) virus produced only large plaques during either 3 serial plaque passages in chick fibroblasts or 10 plaque passages in L cells, and was lethal for mice by the intraperitoneal route. Virus showing these characteristics was designated the stable large-plaque (Ls) type. In contrast, virus obtained during serial plaque passage of the attenuated 9t strain in chick fibroblasts formed only very small plaques and was not lethal for mice by the intraperitoneal route. Virus showing these properties was designated the stable small-plaque (Ss) type. Under other passage conditions, however, large-plaque virus that yielded about 90% large and 10% small plaques was obtained; this virus was designated the unstable large or Lu type because it differed from the Ls type, which yielded only large plaques. The Lu type continued to yield the same ratio of large to small plaques for several plaque-to-plaque passages. In addition, small-plaque virus that yielded both large and small plaques and that showed a reduced capability to infect mice was also recovered. This virus was designated the unstable small or Su type because it differed from the Ss type in its higher level of virulence and in its plaque-forming properties. Thus, based upon the properties of virulence for mice and plaque size, four viral types could be discerned. The evidence suggests that serial passage in cell culture imposed environmental pressures that sequentially selected the following viral types: Ls, Lu, Su, and Ss. 相似文献

To investigate the relationship of the variation of virulence and the external capsid proteins of the pandemic duck hepatitis A virus type 1 (DHAV-1) isolates, the virulence, cross neutralization assays and the complete sequence of the virion protein 1 (VP1) gene of nine virulent DHAV-1 strains, which were isolated from infected ducklings with clinical symptoms in Shandong province of China in 2007–2008, were tested. The fifth generation duck embryo allantoic liquids of the 9 isolates were tested on 12-day-old duck embryos and on 7-day-old ducklings for the median embryonal lethal doses (ELD50s) and the median lethal doses (LD50s), respectively. The results showed that the ELD50s of embryonic duck eggs of the 9 DHAV-1 isolates were between 1.9 × 106/mL to 1.44 × 107/mL, while the LD50s were 2.39 × 105/mL to 6.15 × 106/mL. Cross-neutralization tests revealed that the 9 DHAV-1 isolates were completely neutralized by the standard serum and the hyperimmune sera against the 9 DHAV-1 isolates, respectively. Compared with other virulent, moderate virulent, attenuated vaccine and mild strains, the VP1 genes of the 9 strains shared 89.8%–99.7% similarity at the nucleotide level and 92.4%–99.6% at amino acid level with other DHAV-1 strains. There were three hypervariable regions at the C-terminus (aa 158–160, 180–193 and 205–219) and other variable points in VP1 protein, but which didn’t cause virulence of DHAV-1 change. 相似文献
