The low precursor frequency of individual virus-specific CD8(+) T cells in a naive host makes the early events of CD8(+) T cell activation, proliferation, and differentiation in response to viral infection a challenge to identify. We have therefore examined the response of naive CD8(+) T cells to pulmonary influenza virus infection with a murine adoptive transfer model using hemagglutinin-specific TCR transgenic CD8(+) T cells. Initial activation of CD8(+) T cells occurs during the first 3 days postinfection exclusively within the draining lymph nodes. Acquisition of CTL effector functions, including effector cytokine and granule-associated protease expression, occurs in the draining lymph nodes and differentially correlates with cell division. Division of activated CD8(+) T cells within the draining lymph nodes occurs in an asynchronous manner between days 3 and 4 postinfection. Despite the presence of Ag for several days within the draining lymph nodes, dividing T cells do not appear to maintain contact with residual Ag. After multiple cell divisions, CD8(+) T cells exit the draining lymph nodes and migrate to the infected lung. Activated CD8(+) T cells also disseminate throughout lymphoid tissue including the spleen and distal lymph nodes following their emigration from draining lymph nodes. These results demonstrate an important role for draining lymph nodes in orchestrating T cell responses during a local infection of a discrete organ to generate effector CD8(+) T cells capable of responding to infection and seeding peripheral lymphoid tissues. 相似文献

Expression of a Moloney murine leukemia virus (MLV) rat somatotropin fusion gene was examined in a transgenic pig. The fusion gene was integrated in a single site within the genome in a tandem array with approximately eight copies per cell. The integrated in a single site within the genome in a tandem array with approximately eight copies per cell. The integrated MLV-rat somatotropin fusion gene produced high levels of circulating rat somatotropin and resulted in an elevation in the circulating levels of insulin-like growth factor I. Although there was no increase in the rate of growth of the transgenic animal during the rapid growth phase, several phenotypic changes were evident. Skeletal growth was markedly increased and fat deposition was reduced throughout the animal. Blood glucose levels were elevated without ketosis. Northern blot analyses of rat somatotropin RNA revealed that expression of the fusion gene was highest in the spleen, lung, intestine, lymph nodes, and bone marrow. These results show that the MLV promoter can be used to express high levels of biologically active rat somatotropin in transgenic swine. 相似文献

The E3L gene of vaccinia virus (VACV) encodes the E3 protein that in cultured cells inhibits the activation of interferon (IFN)-induced proteins, double-stranded RNA-dependent protein kinase (PKR), 2′-5′-oligoadenylate synthetase/RNase L (2-5A system) and adenosine deaminase (ADAR-1), thus helping the virus to evade host responses. Here, we have characterized the in vivo E3 functions in a murine inducible cell culture system (E3L-TetOFF) and in transgenic mice (TgE3L). Inducible E3 expression in cultured cells conferred on cells resistance to the antiviral action of IFN against different viruses, while expression of the E3L gene in TgE3L mice triggered enhanced sensitivity of the animals to pathogens. Virus infection monitored in TgE3L mice by different inoculation routes (intraperitoneal and tail scarification) showed that transgenic mice became more susceptible to VACV infection than control mice. TgE3L mice were also more susceptible to Leishmania major infection, leading to an increase in parasitemia compared to control mice. The enhanced sensitivity of TgE3L mice to VACV and L. major infections occurred together with alterations in the host immune system, as revealed by decreased T-cell responses to viral antigens in the spleen and lymph nodes and by differences in the levels of specific innate cell populations. These results demonstrate that expression of the E3L gene in transgenic mice partly reverses the resistance of the host to viral and parasitic infections and that these effects are associated with immune alterations. 相似文献

The tat gene of the human immunodeficiency virus, tat-III, when introduced into T-lymphoblastoid Jurkat cells by a Moloney retroviral recombinant DNA vector expressed high levels of the functional tat protein as measured by the chloramphenicol acetyltransferase assay. Immunofluorescence analysis with CD4-specific monoclonal antibodies demonstrated that the cell surface levels of the CD4 antigen were increased by 5- to 10-fold in the tat-III-infected Jurkat cells. Cellular cytoplasmic RNA analysis indicated that the enhanced CD4 expression was mediated at the mRNA level. Our findings suggest that the single expression of the human immunodeficiency virus tat protein in the absence of the other viral proteins causes an upregulation of CD4 gene expression on helper T cells, although infection of these cells by the virus, thus expressing all the viral gene products including tat, is known to downregulate CD4 antigen expression. 相似文献

Dendritic cells (DCs) are thought to be responsible for sensitization to inhaled Ag and induction of adaptive immunity in the lung. The characteristics of T cell activation in the lung were studied after transfer of Ag-pulsed bone marrow-derived DCs into the airways of naive mice. Cell division of Ag-specific T cells in vivo was followed in a carboxyfluorescein diacetate succinimidyl ester-labeled cohort of naive moth cytochrome c-reactive TCR transgenic T cells. Our adoptive transfer system was such that transferred DCs were the only cells expressing the MHC molecule required for presentation of cytochrome c to transgenic T cells. Ag-specific T cell activation and proliferation occurred rapidly in the draining lymph nodes of the lung, but not in nondraining lymph nodes or spleen. No bystander activation of non-Ag-specific T cells was induced. Division of Ag-specific T cells was accompanied by transient expression of CD69, while up-regulation of CD44 increased with each cell division. Divided cells had recirculated to nondraining lymph nodes and spleen by day 4 of the response. In vitro restimulation with specific Ag revealed that T cells were primed to proliferate more strongly and to produce higher amounts of cytokines per cell. These data are consistent with the notion that DCs in the lung are extremely efficient in selecting Ag-reactive T cells from a diverse repertoire. The response is initially localized in the mediastinal lymph nodes, but subsequently spreads systemically. This system should allow us to study the early events leading to sensitization to inhaled Ag. 相似文献

Human and animal hemorrhagic viruses initially target dendritic cells (DCs). It has been proposed, but not documented, that both plasmacytoid DCs (pDCs) and conventional DCs (cDCs) may participate in the cytokine storm encountered in these infections. In order to evaluate the contribution of DCs in hemorrhagic virus pathogenesis, we performed a genome-wide expression analysis during infection by Bluetongue virus (BTV), a double-stranded RNA virus that induces hemorrhagic fever in sheep and initially infects cDCs. Both pDCs and cDCs accumulated in regional lymph nodes and spleen during BTV infection. The gene response profiles were performed at the onset of the disease and markedly differed with the DC subtypes and their lymphoid organ location. An integrative knowledge-based analysis revealed that blood pDCs displayed a gene signature related to activation of systemic inflammation and permeability of vasculature. In contrast, the gene profile of pDCs and cDCs in lymph nodes was oriented to inhibition of inflammation, whereas spleen cDCs did not show a clear functional orientation. These analyses indicate that tissue location and DC subtype affect the functional gene expression program induced by BTV and suggest the involvement of blood pDCs in the inflammation and plasma leakage/hemorrhage during BTV infection in the real natural host of the virus. These findings open the avenue to target DCs for therapeutic interventions in viral hemorrhagic diseases. 相似文献

In fatal Ebola virus hemorrhagic fever massive intravascular apoptosis develops rapidly following infection and progressing relentlessly until death. While data suggest that T lymphocytes are mainly deleted by apoptosis in PBMC of human fatal cases, experimental Ebola infection in animal models have shown some evidence of destruction of lymphocytes in spleen and lymph nodes probably involving both T and B cells. Nevertheless, we are able to conclude from the accumulated evidence that early interactions between Ebola virus and the immune system, probably via macrophages, main targets for viral replication, lead to massive destruction of immune cells in fatal cases. 相似文献

Infection of humans with wild-type measles virus leads to strong immune suppression and secondary infections, whereas immunization with an attenuated vaccine strain does not. Using the cotton rat model (Sigmodon hispidus), we investigated whether vaccine and wild-type viruses differ in viral spread and whether this is correlated with inhibition of of proliferation of spleen cells ex vivo after mitogen stimulation. After intranasal infection of cotton rats with wild-type and vaccine strains, it was found that wild-type virus replicates better in lung tissue, spreads to the mediastinal lymph nodes, and induces a more pronounced and longer-lasting inhibition of proliferation of spleen cells ex vivo after mitogen stimulation than does vaccine virus. To induce the same degree of proliferation inhibition, 1,000-fold less wild-type virus was required than vaccine virus. With this system, the virulence of various measles virus isolates and recombinant viruses was tested. Four (in humans and/or monkeys) highly pathogenic virus strains were immunosuppressive, whereas viruses of vaccine virus genotype A were not. Using virus pairs which, due to passage on fibroblasts versus lymphoid cells or due to a point mutation in the hemagglutinin (N481 --> Y), differed in their usage of the two receptor molecules CD46 and CD150 on human cells, it was found that viruses using exclusively CD150 in vitro spread to mediastinal lymph nodes and induced strong immune suppression. These data demonstrate that important parameters of virulence seen in humans, such as viral spread and immune suppression, are reflected in the cotton rat model. 相似文献

Mice infected with influenza virus develop cytotoxic T lymphocytes (CTL) specific for viral antigens prior to the appearance of virus-specific antibody-forming cells (AFCs). Effector T cells were detected at a time coincident with a precipitous decline in pulmonary virus titer. CTLs of draining lymph nodes and spleen were found to be cross-reactive among H-2 compatible cells infected with influenza type A virus subtypes. AFCs were observed to be primarily hemagglutinin specific. Virus-specific IgA-secreting AFCs were detected in mediastinal lymph nodes of infected mice. 相似文献

In order to identify organ and cellular targets of persistent enterovirus infection in vivo, immunocompetent mice (SWR/J, H-2q) were inoculated intraperitoneally with coxsackievirus B3 (CVB3). By use of in situ hybridization for the detection of enteroviral RNA, we show that CVB3 is capable of inducing a multiorgan disease. During acute infection, viral RNA was visualized at high levels in the heart muscle, pancreas, spleen, and lymph nodes and at comparably low levels in the central nervous system, thymus, lung, and liver. At later stages of the disease, the presence of enteroviral RNA was found to be restricted to the myocardium, spleen, and lymph nodes. To characterize infected lymphoid cells during the course of the disease, enteroviral RNA and cell-specific surface antigens were visualized simultaneously in situ in spleen tissue sections. In acute infection, the majority of infected spleen cells, which are located primarily at the periphery of lymph follicles, were found to express the CD45R/B220+ phenotype of pre-B and B cells. Whereas viral RNA was also detected in certain CD4+ helper T cells and Mac-1+ macrophages, no enteroviral genomes were identified in CD8+ cytotoxic/suppressor T cells. Later in disease, the localization of enteroviral RNA revealed a persistent type of infection of B cells within the germinal centers of secondary follicles. In addition, detection of the replicative viral minus-strand RNA intermediate provided evidence for virus replication in lymphoid cells of the spleen during the course of the disease. These data indicate that immune cells are important targets of CVB3 infection, providing a noncardiac reservoir for viral RNA during acute and persistent myocardial enterovirus infection. 相似文献

A morphological, immunohistochemical and polymerase chain reaction (PCR) study was performed on eight ewes experimentally infected with an Italian strain of Maedi-Visna Virus (MVV) in order to evaluate the lesions and the viral distribution after three years of infection. At the moment of euthanasia, seven sheep were seropositive for MVV, while one sheep in poor body conditions was seronegative since one year. Lungs, pulmonary lymph nodes, udder, supramammary lymph nodes, carpal joints, the CNS, spleen and bone marrow of the eight infected sheep were collected for histology, for immunohistochemical detection of the MVV core protein p28 and for PCR amplification of a 218 bp viral DNA sequence of the pol region. The most common histological findings consisted of interstitial lymphoproliferative pneumonia and lymphoproliferative mastitis of different severity, while no lesions were observed in the CNS. MVV p28 antigen was immunohistochemically labelled in lungs, udder, pulmonary lymph nodes, spleen and bone marrow but not in the CNS of all the eight infected sheep. A 218 bp sequence of MVV pol region was detected in lung of a seropositive and of the seroconverted negative sheep. The results suggest that (i) MVV causes heterogeneous lesions in homogeneously reared ewes, (ii) MVV p28 antigen is detectable not only in inflammed target organs, but also in pulmonary lymph nodes, spleen and bone marrow, and (iii) immunohistochemistry and PCR are useful methods for Maedi-Visna diagnosis in suspected cases, also when serological tests are negative. 相似文献

Substantial progress has been made in understanding Ag presentation to T cells; however, relatively little is known about the location and frequency of cells presenting viral Ags during a viral infection. Here, we took advantage of a highly sensitive system using lacZ-inducible T cell hybridomas to enumerate APCs during the course of respiratory Sendai virus infection in mice. Using lacZ-inducible T cell hybridomas specific for the immunodominant hemagglutinin-neuraminidase HN421-436/I-Ab and nucleoprotein NP324-332/Kb epitopes, we detected APCs in draining mediastinal lymph nodes (MLNs), in cervical lymph nodes, and also in the spleen. HN421-436/I-Ab- and NP324-332/Kb-presenting cells were readily detectable between days 3 and 9 postinfection, with more APCs present in the MLN than in the cervical lymph nodes. Interestingly, no infectious virus was detected in lymphoid tissue beyond day 6, suggesting that a depot of noninfectious viral Ag survives, in some form, for 2-3 days after viral clearance. Fractionation of the MLN demonstrated that APC frequency was enriched in dendritic cells and macrophages but depleted in the B cell population, suggesting that B cells do not form a large population of APCs during the primary response to this virus. 相似文献

Progression of armed CTL from draining lymph node to spleen shortly after localized infection with herpes simplex virus 1. 总被引:24,自引:0,他引:24

We have examined the generation of CTL immunity immediately after localized footpad infection with herpes simplex virus 1 (HSV-1) using three coordinated in vivo T cell tracking methodologies. Tetrameric MHC class I containing the immunodominant peptide from HSV-1 glycoprotein B (gB) showed that after infection the proportion of Ag-specific T cells peaked at day 5 within draining popliteal lymph nodes and 2 days later in the spleen. Preferential expression of the activation marker CD25 by tetramer-positive cells in draining popliteal nodes but not spleen suggested that gB-specific T cells were initially activated within the lymph node. In vivo cytotoxicity assays showed that Ag-specific effector cells were present within the draining lymph nodes as early as day 2 after infection, with a further 2-day lag before detection in the spleen. Consistent with the very early arming of effector CTL in the draining lymph node, adoptive transfer of CFSE-labeled gB-specific transgenic T cells showed that they had undergone one to four rounds of cell division by day 2 after infection. In contrast, proliferating T cells were first detected in appreciable numbers in the spleen on day 4, at which time they had undergone extensive cell division. These data demonstrate that HSV-1-specific T cells are rapidly activated and armed within draining lymph nodes shortly after localized HSV-1 infection. This is followed by their dissemination to other compartments such as the spleen, where they further proliferate in an Ag-independent fashion. 相似文献

Murine herpes virus (MHV), a natural pathogen originally isolated from free-living rodents, constitutes the most amenable animal model for human gamma herpesviruses. Based on DNA sequence homology, this virus was classified as Murid Herpesvirus 4 to subfamily Gammaherpesvirinae. Pilot studies in our laboratory, using mice inoculated by the intranasal route, showed that MHV infects macrophages, B lymphocytes, lung alveolar as well as endothelial cells. From the lungs the virus spreads via the bloodstream to spleen and bone marrow and via the lymphatics to the mediastinal lymph nodes. Similarly to other gamma herpesviruses, MHV established life-long latency maintained in host B lymphocytes and macrophages. An IM-like syndrome (per analogy to EBV) may develop during acute MHV infection, in which the atypical T/CD8+ lymphocytes eliminate viral DNA carrying B cells expressing the M2 latency associated protein. During latency, the MHV LANA (a KSHV LANA homologue) maintains the latent viral genome, assuring its copying and partition to new carrier cells in the course of division of the maternal cell. The nonproductive latency is turned onto virus replication by means of Rta protein. The chronic lymphoproliferative syndrome of unclear pathogenesis, which occurs in a certain part of latent MHV carriers, is related to the expression of gamma herpesvirus common latency-associated genes such as v-cyclin and/or to that of a virus-specific (M11/bcl-2) gene. This review attempts to summarize our knowledge concerning the function of MHV genes (either gamma herpesvirus common or MHV specific) related to immune evasion, latency and lymphoproliferation when highlighting the unsolved problems and/or controversial opinions. 相似文献

Fifty transgenic lines expressing the tobacco vein mottling virus (TVMV) coat protein (CP) gene in five genetic backgrounds were evaluated under field conditions for response to mechanic inoculation with TVMV, tobacco etch virus (TEV) and potato virus Y (PVY). TVMV CP transgenic lines conferred resistance to TVMV, TEV and PVY under field conditions. Combining two strategies, coat protein-mediated resistance (CPMR) coupled with an endogenous resistance gene (Virgin A Mutant, VAM) significantly extended the range and magnitude of virus resistance and provided a potential valuable new source of protection against potyviruses. CP transgenic lines lacking the VAM gene had high resistance to TEV, medium resistance to PVY, and a recovery phenotype to TVMV. A series of hybrids involving transgenic lines were generated and tested under field conditions for response to virus inoculation. One copy of TVMV-CP gene presented in lines homozygous for the VAM gene provided effective resistance to all three potyviruses. These studies also suggested that selection of a suitable recipient genotype was critical and that field evaluation was necessary in order to select elite resistant transgenic lines. Engineering viral CP genes into genotypes possessing some level of virus resistance could be critical to achieve an effective level of resistance. 相似文献
