Establishment of a persistent measles virus infection in HEp-2 cells.

A productive measles virus persistent infection has been established in HEp-2 cells. Greater than 90% of the persistently infected HEp-2 cells (H2MV) exhibited measles specific immunofluorescence and haemadsorption. Although most of the H2MV cells contained measles specific antigens, only a small percentage (less than 1%) actually produced infectious measles virus as determined by infectious centre assays. The measles virus produced by H2MV cells exhibited properties different from the initiating parent Edmonston strain virus, being reduced in virulence and also temperature sensitive for replication at 39 degrees C. The role of these altered virus properties in the establishment of persistence is considered.

Establishment and maintenance of persistent infection by Sindbis virus in BHK cells.

We have established a persistent infection of BHK cells with a preparation of Sindbis virus heavily enriched in defective interfering (DI) particles. The small fraction of cells that survived the initial infection grew out to form a stable population of cells [BHK(Sin-1) cells], most of which synthesized viral RNA and viral antigens. The presence of DI particles in this virus stock was required to establish this persistent state. BHK(Sin-1) cells released a small-plaque, temperature-sensitive virus (Sin-1 virus) as well as DI particles containing DI RNAs larger than those present in the original stock used to establish the persistent state. A cloned stock of Sin-1 virus, free of detectable DI particles, was able to initiate a persistent infection more quickly and with greater cell survival than the original stock of Sindbis virus containing DI particles. About 2 weeks after the Sin-1 virus-infected cells were cultured, DI RNAs arose and soon became the dominant viral RNA species produced by these cells.     

The function of SeMNPV IAP3 in mammalian cells

The baculoviral inhibitors of apoptosis play a significant role in infectivity and viral host-range, which make them potential candidates for the engineering and improvement of baculovirus insecticidal. The iap3 gene of Spodoptera exigua nucleopolyhedrovirus (SeMNPV), amplified by PCR, was 939 bp encoding IAP3. The PCR product was cloned into EcoR I/Bam H I of the plasmid pEGFP-C1. GFP was fused to the N-terminaus of IAP3 to study distribution in HEK293. It was observed that the plasmid expressing IAP3 significantly inhibited apoptosis induced by cisplatin in HEK293 cells. We conclude that the IAP3 of SeMNPV is functional in mammalian cells.     

Establishment of a persistent baculovirus infection in a lepidopteran cell line

The paper describes the first overt attempt to establish an insect cell line (Spodoptera frugiperda), persistently infected with its homologous baculovirus. The persistently infected cells were morphologically different and grew to a higher density than the noninfected parent line. The parent line, however, had a shorter doubling time. Persistently infected cells were passaged 40 times over 10 months; they still continued to produce infectious virus and polyhedral inclusion bodies. However, the infectious viral titer was ca. 100 times lower in the persistently infected line than in the parent line; also, the number of inclusion bodies was reduced ca. 98%. Interference with both homologous and heterologous baculoviruses was demonstrated in the persistently infected cell line. Sevently percent of the persistently infected cells contained antigens for S. frugiperda nuclear polyhedrosis virus, ca. 1% of the cells showed infectious viral centers, and ca. 3% of the cells contained inclusion bodies. Although the inclusion bodies from the persistently infected cells were infectious for S. frugiperda larvae, they were about 3 times less infectious than the inclusion bodies produced in the parent line.     

Localization and functional analysis of SeMNPV IE1 in mammalian cells

In this paper, the function of the iel gene from baculovirus Spodoptera exigua multiple nucleopolyhedrovirus (SeMNPV), belonging to group Ⅱ nucleopolyhedrovirus, was studied in mammalian cells.We amplified the SeMNPV ie1 gene and expressed it by fusing to the C terminal of enhanced GFP protein in HEK 293 cells. Confocal microscopy revealed that the IE1-GFP fusion protein was localized in the nucleus of the mammalian cells. The promoter sequences of AcMNPV gp64, SeMNPV F protein and Drosophila hsp70 were also analyzed, to further study the function of SeMNPV IE1. The results showed that, in the absence of the hr sequence, IE1 improved the expression of the F promoter but didn't influence the gp64 promoter significantly, but IE1 moderately stimulated the hsp70 promoter.     

Establishment of persistent infection with HIV-1 abrogates the caspase-3-dependent apoptotic signaling pathway in U937 cells

Treatment of 26L cells, a subclone obtained from U937 cells, with TNF-alpha or DNA-damaging agents such as teniposide (VM26) and camptothecin (CPT) induced morphologically and biochemically typical apoptotic changes, including the activation of procaspase-3. The cells persistently infected with HIV-1 (26L/HIV), however, showed a marked resistance to VM26 and CPT, whereas they hardly lost the sensitivity to TNF-alpha. TNF-alpha-induced apoptosis of 26L/HIV cells proceeded without the increase in caspase-3 activity, indicating that signaling for apoptosis in the infected cells proceeded through an alternative caspase-3-independent pathway which could respond to TNF-alpha but not to VM26 and CPT. The evidence that p-toluenesulfonyl-l-lysine chloromethyl ketone (a trypsin-like serine protease inhibitor) blocked VM26- and CPT-induced apoptotic changes but not TNF-alpha-induced apoptosis also supported the existence of the alternative TNF-alpha-inducible pathway. The results also suggest that a TLCK-sensitive protease is involved upstream of the procaspase-3 activation process and that the protease is essential for the progress of VM26- and CPT-induced apoptosis. The similar effect of HIV-1-productive infection on the apoptosis induced by the DNA-damaging agents was also confirmed by utilizing U1 cells, which are latently HIV-1-infected U937 cells. The cells became resistant to these agents after induction of the viral production by pretreatment with PMA. These results suggest that persistent HIV-1 infection blocks an apoptotic pathway triggered by DNA damaging agents through the inhibition of the procaspase-3 activation process.
