Baby hamster kidney (BHK), McCoy, and L cell lines were found to be suitable for isolation of MM virus from infected mouse brain tissue. The virus was recovered in high titer in the first passage in BHK and McCoy cells, with concomitant cytopathic effect (CPE). In L cells, virus yield was lower than in the other two cell lines and CPE was incomplete. Adaptation of the virus to BHK and McCoy cells by serial passages was evidenced by accelerated development of the CPE and increase in the virus titer. Plaques were obtained in all three cell lines when inoculated with infected mouse brain or with the tissue culture-propagated virus. In the BHK cells, the virus release preceded the appearance of CPE and maximal yield of virus was obtained after 1 to 3 days of incubation, depending on the size of inoculum. The BHK-propagated virus had the same lethality for mice as did the mouse brain-propagated stock, and there was no difference in the course of the disease caused by the two preparations. 相似文献

We have shown that immunization of mice with a vaccinia virus recombinant expressing glycoprotein D of Herpes simplex virus (HSV)-1 will induce a variety of L3T4+ T cell responses. These included a HSV-specific delayed-type hypersensitivity response, T cell help for the induction of antiviral antibodies, and the ability to eliminate a challenge dose of HSV from the pinna. This protection against a subcutaneous virus challenge was not mediated by the delayed-type hypersensitivity response because intravenous inoculation of the vaccinia virus recombinant expressing HSV-1-gD induced a state of split tolerance. Thus, mice could still clear a HSV challenge inoculum from the pinna yet were unable to mount a HSV-specific delayed-type hypersensitivity response. Evidence is presented that suggests the protective response was, at least, in part mediated by a T cell-dependent induction of virus-neutralizing antibodies. Evidence is also presented that may suggest the failure of a vaccinia virus recombinant expressing HSV-1-gD to induce HSV-specific cytotoxic T cell responses appears to minimize the protective response to only efficiently clearing low 10(4) 50% tissue culture infective dose) challenge populations of virus. These findings are discussed with relevance to the immune control of HSV infections and to the future development of anti-HSV vaccines. 相似文献

Attachment characteristics of normal human cells and virus-infected cells on microcarriers 总被引:3,自引:0,他引:3
The attachment kinetics of normal and virus-infected LuMA cells were studied to improve the production of live attenuated
varicella viruses in human embryonic lung (LuMA) cells. Normal LuMA cells and LuMA cells infected by varicella virus at various
cytopathic effects (CPE) were grown on microcarriers. Ninety-three percent of suspended LuMA cells attached to the solid surface
microcarriers within fifteen minutes and cell viability was greater than 95% when the cell suspension was stirred. Low serum
levels did not affect the attachment rate of virus-infected cells in the microcarrier culture system. Kinetic studies showed
that varicella infected cells had a lower attachment rate than normal LuMA cells. Virus inoculum (= infected cells) at low
CPE showed a relatively better attachment rate on cell-laden microcarriers than virus inoculum at a higher CPE. Maximum titers
were obtained at 2 days post-infection. Based on cell densities, the use of viral inoculum showing a 40% CPE led to an approximately
2- and 1.2-fold increase in the cell associated and in cell free viruses, respectively, than a virus inoculum with a CPE of
10%.However, the ratio of cell-free to cell-associated virus in a microcarrier culture was very low, approximately0.04–0.06.
These studies demonstrate that the virus inoculum resulting in a high CPE yielded a high production of cell-associated and
cell-free virus in microcarrier cultures because of the high cellular affinity of the varicella virus.

A co-occlusion process was evaluated as a commercially and ecologically acceptable strategy for the development of genetically improved baculovirus insecticides. Coinfection of Spodoptera frugiperda (IPLB-SF-21) tissue culture cells with Autographa californica nuclear polyhedrosis virus (AcMNPV) and an AcMNPV mutant (Ac-E10) lacking the polyhedrin gene resulted in occlusion of both virus types within polyhedra. The amount of occluded Ac-E10 virions in progeny polyhedra populations during serial passage in Trichoplusia ni larvae was evaluated. Maintenance of the mutant in progeny polyhedra required polyhedra inocula containing equal numbers of the two virus types at a high dose. A significant reduction in occluded mutant nucleocapsids occurs with inoculum levels below a 100% lethal dose. At inoculum levels below a 30% lethal dose, the majority of fourth-instar larvae were infected with only one type of virus. The commercial application and ecological advantages of the co-occlusion process are discussed. 相似文献

A quantitative estimate of the cellular tubulin concentration can be obtained by the use of a radioimmunoassay based upon the competition between tubulin in cell extracts and a known amount of radioactively labeled homogeneous tubulin during binding to a limited amount of antitubulin antibodies. This assay shows that a variety of widely used tissue culture cells (mouse L cells, mouse 3T3 cells, chick embryo fibroblasts) have a tubulin content which corresponds to approximately 2.5-3.3% of their total protein. Transformation of mouse 3T3 cells by the DNA virus SV40, and of chick embryo cells by the RNA Rous sarcoma virus, does not change the intracellular tubulin concentration. Transformed cells of brain origin, such as some glia tumor cell lines and some neuroblastoma cell lines, have a much lower tubulin content than does normal brain tissue.The intracellular concentration of tubulin in mouse 3T3 cells is discussed in relation to the number of microtubules detected during interphase by immunofluorescence microscopy. These results are also discussed in view of a mechanism of microtubule elongation in vivo driven by self-assembly. 相似文献

A method was developed for the production of Eastern equine encephalomyelitis vaccine from virus grown in rolling-bottle cultures (840 cm(2) growth area) of chick embryo cells. The PE-6 strain of virus was propagated in chick embryo cell roller cultures maintained on serum-free medium 199 containing 0.25% human serum albumin and antibiotics (MM). A multiplicity of inoculum of 0.005 yielded acceptable titers of virus at a convenient harvest time of 18 to 24 hr and reduced the carry-over of extraneous material from the virus seed. Growth studies in which 100, 200, or 300 ml of MM was used showed that use of 300 ml of MM offered two advantages: (i) cytopathic effects were less at the 18- to 24-hr harvest time, thereby decreasing cellular material in the final product, and (ii) total virus yield was not substantially reduced, thus permitting large-scale production of virus for further processing. Studies on formalin inactivation at 37 C indicated that the virus was inactivated by 0.05% formalin within 12 to 16 hr and with 0.1% formalin within 6 to 8 hr. Antigen extinction tests in hamsters revealed excellent potency (e.g., median-effective-dose values of 0.069 to 0.012 ml) for both fluid and freeze-dried products. The advantages of the roller-bottle technique in vaccine production are discussed. 相似文献

The effect of several controlled variables on the peak titer and fold increase of Rift Valley fever virus grown in suspension culture on two variants of Earle's L cell, L-DR and L-MA clone 1-1, was studied. No significant amount of cell-associated virus was found at 24 hr, indicating a release of virus soon after its formation. Mild sonic treatment of the virus produced in serum-free medium increased the infective titer about 10x. This difference was not observed with virus produced in medium supplemented with serum. Peak titer was not affected by medium used during the infection period, by multiplicity of inoculum (MOI), or by initial cell concentration within the test range of 10(4) to 2 x 10(6) cell/ml. Cell strain employed influenced titer, because the L-DR cell did not produce virus efficiently at low MOI and low initial cell concentration. The time of peak titer and fold replication was dependent on MOI and initial cell concentration. Differences in virus propagation in monolayer and suspension systems are discussed. 相似文献

Woodchuck hepatitis virus (WHV), which is closely related to human hepatitis B virus, infects the liver but also invariably establishes persistent infection in the lymphatic system. Although the dose of invading virus appears to be the main factor in determining whether WHV infection is restricted to the lymphatic system or also engages the liver, the nature of WHV lymphotropism remains unclear and a role for a specific lymphotropic variant was not excluded. The availability of woodchuck lymphocyte and hepatocyte cultures susceptible to WHV infection allows investigation of this issue in vitro. We hypothesized that repeated passage of wild-type WHV in lymphoid cells should lead to enrichment of a lymphotropic virus variant, if in fact such a variant exists. For this purpose, wild-type WHV with a homogeneous sequence was used as the inoculum, while lymphoid cells from a single healthy woodchuck donor and a normal woodchuck WCM-260 hepatocyte line served as infection targets. The serial passage of the wild-type virus repeated up to 13 times for both cell types did not lead to the emergence of cell type-specific WHV variants, as revealed by sequence analysis of the virus envelope and the core and X gene sequences. Moreover, the virus passaged in both cell types remained infectious for naive woodchucks, produced infection profiles that depended upon virus dose but not on virus cellular origin, and retained its initial DNA sequence. These results imply that WHV lymphotropism is a natural propensity of the wild-type virus and is not a consequence of infection with a viral variant. 相似文献

Shorter lag phases were obtained in cultivations of Bacillus licheniformis using early-compared to late-stationary growth phase inocula and using liquid versus solid propagation medium. Flow cytometry and fluorescence ratio imaging microscopy (FRIM) after staining with 5(6)-carboxyfluorescein diacetate succinimidyl ester (CFDA-SE), confirmed that liquid early-stationary growth phase inoculum had a higher vitality and was more homogeneous than solid late-stationary growth phase inoculum. DNA-microarray analyses indicated that liquid early-stationary growth phase inoculum was in a more active state in terms of cell multiplication whereas solid late-stationary growth phase inoculum was induced to some spore formation potentially causing delayed growth initiation. 相似文献

A quantitative assay for infective variola virus particles was developed which is based on the enumeration of cells containing fluorescent viral antigen after infection of McCoy cell monolayers. The direct fluorescent-antibody technique was employed to stain cells. The efficiency of virus adsorption was markedly enhanced by centrifugation of virus inoculum onto McCoy cell monolayers at 500 x g for 15 min. By this procedure, a proportionality was obtained between the number of fluorescent cells and volume of inoculum. Observations on the sequential development of viral antigen within cells and counts of fluorescent cells showed that the optimal time for enumerating fluorescent cells was after an incubation period of 16 to 20 hr. A linear function existed between virus concentration and cell-infecting units. Fluorescent cells were distributed randomly in infected cover slip cell monolayers. The assay was demonstrated to be highly sensitive, precise, and reproducible. 相似文献

Infection, propagation, distribution and stability of plant virus in hairy root cultures 总被引:2,自引:1,他引:1
Nicotiana benthamiana hairy root cultures were infected with tobacco mosaic virus (TMV) and used for in vitro plant virus propagation. The roots were infected with TMV by addition of virus to the medium at the same time as root inoculation. Viral accumulation in the biomass was 7-11-fold greater when the initial infection was carried out in B5 medium rather than sodium phosphate buffer; virus accumulation also increased with increasing viral inoculum concentration. The amount of TMV accumulated in the biomass was similar when virus was retained in the medium for the duration of the cultures and when the inoculum virus was removed 23h after addition to the roots. In roots with established infections, the concentration of virus remained relatively constant and did not increase with further root growth. The distribution of virus within individual root mats harvested from shake flasks was not uniform; there was also significant variability in viral accumulation between replicate hairy root cultures. The picture that emerges from this work is that in vitro viral accumulation in hairy root cultures depends strongly on the viral inoculum concentration applied and the initial level of primary infection achieved, even though primary infection by external virus occurs mainly within only the first few hours of exposure to the biomass and is followed by substantial secondary infection by viral progeny within the root tissue. 相似文献

The studies reported here describe the successful propagation of variola virus in spinner cultures of mammalian cells, and the factors which influence its growth. Five established cell lines were used for the propagation of variola virus in a spinner culture system. Low doses of virus did initiate an infection but virus yields did not approach those obtained when an intermediate inoculum was used. Although the nonviable cell population remained low during the course of infection with an intermediate amount of virus, with an inoculum of 105 infectious units per ml or higher, the percentage of nonviable cells increased rapidly and by the sixth day after infection the population was totally nonviable. Intracellular replication of variola virus occurred early and rapidly in a spinner culture of guinea pig lung cells, whereas the liberation of virus into the suspending medium was a more gradual process. Several complete medium changes tend to maintain a suitable environment for the infected cell culture resulting in fairly high and constant viral titers over a period of 7 days. 相似文献

The diverse sequences of viral populations within individual hosts are the starting material for selection and subsequent evolution of RNA viruses such as foot-and-mouth disease virus (FMDV). Using next-generation sequencing (NGS) performed on a Genome Analyzer platform (Illumina), this study compared the viral populations within two bovine epithelial samples (foot lesions) from a single animal with the inoculum used to initiate experimental infection. Genomic sequences were determined in duplicate sequencing runs, and the consensus sequence of the inoculum determined by NGS was identical to that previously determined using the Sanger method. However, NGS revealed the fine polymorphic substructure of the viral population, from nucleotide variants present at just below 50% frequency to those present at fractions of 1%. Some of the higher-frequency polymorphisms identified encoded changes within codons associated with heparan sulfate binding and were present in both foot lesions, revealing intermediate stages in the evolution of a tissue culture-adapted virus replicating within a mammalian host. We identified 2,622, 1,434, and 1,703 polymorphisms in the inoculum and in the two foot lesions, respectively: most of the substitutions occurred in only a small fraction of the population and represented the progeny from recent cellular replication prior to onset of any selective pressures. We estimated the upper limit for the genome-wide mutation rate of the virus within a cell to be 7.8 × 10(-4) per nucleotide. The greater depth of detection achieved by NGS demonstrates that this method is a powerful and valuable tool for the dissection of FMDV populations within hosts. 相似文献

Centrifugation of murine cytomegalovirus inocula from a variety of sources onto secondary mouse embryo cell monolayers at 1,900 x g for 30 min regularly revealed 10- to 100-fold more infectious virus than could be found in the same materials using standard inoculation methods. Virus demonstrable only by centrifugation was present throughout the entire growth cycle in a constant proportion to virus measured without centrifugation. Extracellular growth curves of both populations revealed an 18- to 21-hr latent period, followed by a long-linear increase over the next 12 hr; final yield was 30 plaque-forming units (PFU) per cell. Centrifugation of cells prior to inoculation or after standard adsorption and removal of inoculum failed to result in any significant change in measured virus titer. However, even after 4-hr adsorption, the supernatant inoculum could be transferred and centrifuged onto a fresh monolayer resulting in the same increment of measurable virus. Neutralizing antibody and interferon were equally efficacious against 100 PFU of virus as defined by either method. Thus, this newly identified population of cytomegalo-virus represents the vast majority of potentially infectious units and appears to differ solely in ease of adsorption onto cell monolayers. 相似文献

Pathogenicity of the encephalomyocarditis (EMC) virus for adult mice was increased when polycations of diverse type were mixed with virus and inoculated by the subcutaneous or intraperitoneal routes. Diethylaminoethyl (DEAE) dextran, hexadimethrine (polybrene), polymyxin B, polylysine, and calf thymus histone in various concentrations stimulated multiplication of virus in tissues at the injection site and enhanced entry of virus into the blood. The nonpathogenic r(+) variant of EMC which grows locally in tissues but fails to disseminate after subcutaneous and intraperitoneal inoculation was used in most experiments. This virus caused viremia and fatal central nervous system disease only when the polycations were included in the inoculum. DEAE dextran and polybrene stimulated the release of interferon in infected tissues but had no effect in the absence of virus multiplication. Histological studies of tissues from the injection site showed that polycations provoke a mononuclear cell reaction and alter the integrity of connective tissue. However, the mechanism by which the substances enhance virus growth and dissemination was not defined. 相似文献

The infectivity of fixed rabies virus in a number of cell lines has been shown to be markedly enhanced by the addition of protamine or diethylaminoethyl dextran to the virus inoculum. The polycations appear to exert their influence at a very early stage (adsorption or penetration or both) of virus-cell interaction. Immune globulin blocked infection completely when added up to 5 min after exposure and almost completely when added 5 to 15 min after infection. Antibody had no effect on adsorption and penetration when added to the inoculum 30 min or more after cells were exposed to the virus. Irradiation of BHK/21 cell monolayers with ultraviolet light increased their sensitivity to rabies virus. The events occurring after synchronous infection of cells in both irradiated and nonirradiated cell monolayers were followed by means of fluorescent-antibody staining and by intracerebral titration in mice. Virus-specific fluorescent antigen first appeared between 8 and 9 hr after infection, and in irradiated cultures there was a further lag period of 3 hr before infectious virus was produced intracellularly. Virus was first detected in the medium 12 to 15 hr after infection, and maximal yield of infectious virus was observed 48 hr after exposure. In nonirradiated cultures, formation of infectious virus was delayed, and the final yield of virus was also reduced. 相似文献

A highly pathogenic simian/human immunodeficiency virus (SHIV), SHIV(DH12R), isolated from a rhesus macaque that had been treated with anti-human CD8 monoclonal antibody at the time of primary infection with the nonpathogenic, molecularly cloned SHIV(DH12), induced marked and rapid CD4(+) T cell loss in all rhesus macaques intravenously inoculated with 1.0 50% tissue culture infective dose (TCID(50)) to 4.1 x 10(5) TCID(50)s of virus. Animals inoculated with 650 TCID(50)s of SHIV(DH12R) or more experienced irreversible CD4(+) T lymphocyte depletion and developed clinical disease requiring euthanasia between weeks 12 and 23 postinfection. In contrast, the CD4(+) T-cell numbers in four of five monkeys receiving 25 TCID(50)s of SHIV(DH12R) or less stabilized at low levels, and these surviving animals produced antibodies capable of neutralizing SHIV(DH12R). In the fifth monkey, no recovery from the CD4(+) T cell decline occurred, and the animal had to be euthanized. Viral RNA levels, subsequent to the initial peak of infection but not at peak viremia, correlated with the virus inoculum size and the eventual clinical course. Both initial infection rate constants, k, and decay constants, d, were determined, but only the latter were statistically correlated to clinical outcome. The attenuating effects of reduced inoculum size were also observed when virus was inoculated by the mucosal route. Because the uncloned SHIV(DH12R) stock possessed the genetic properties of a lentivirus quasispecies, we were able to assess the evolution of the input virus swarm in animals surviving the acute infection by monitoring the emergence of neutralization escape viral variants. 相似文献

Vaccinia virus which had its DNA labeled with thymidine-H3 was purified and used as inoculum for L cells growing in suspension. Samples taken over an 8-hour period after infection were studied by light and electron microscopic autoradiography. Within 20 minutes of its being taken up at the cell membrane in phagocytic vesicles, the outer coat of vaccinia becomes disrupted and the virus core containing the labeled DNA passes into the cytoplasmic matrix. Within 1 hour after inoculation the labeled material passes out of the cores into zones of viroplasm, where cores or remnants of cores are gathered and the label becomes more concentrated by 3 hours after inoculation. Most of the label is conserved in the viroplasm areas during the remainder of the experiment. However, 6 hours after inoculation a very small proportion of progeny virus in the cytoplasm, morphologically distinct from the cores of the inoculum, has associated with it labeled material, perhaps derived from the DNA of the inoculum. 相似文献

In glasshouse experiments the ranking of potato genotypes for resistance to infection with potato leafroll virus (PLRV) using three concentrations of aphid-borne inoculum was the same as their field resistance ratings. In field-grown plants this resistance to infection increased in all genotypes as the plants aged but its rate of increase differed between genotypes. In tests on field-grown plants infected by aphid- or graft-inoculation, the proportion of virus-free progeny tubers increased the later the date of inoculation but was greater in resistant than in susceptible genotypes. This trend was most pronounced in the resistant clone G7445(1), in which the virus failed to move from the foliage to the tubers of some plants infected in glasshouse tests. The spread of PLRV will thus be minimised in crops of resistant compared with susceptible genotypes for three reasons: plants have greater resistance to infection, systemic spread of virus from their foliage to tubers is less likely and, as shown previously, the low concentration of virus particles in leaf tissue makes infected plants less potent sources of inoculum for aphids. 相似文献
