A single intraperitoneal injection of benzo(a)pyrene (BP) given 1, 2, or 3 days before an ip injection of Friend leukemia virus (FLV) significantly increased the leukemogenic effect of the virus in B10SJF1 mice. These hybrids are the offspring of C57BL/10 females and SJL/J males and are highly resistant to FLV leukemogenesis when the virus is injected alone. 相似文献

Theiler's virus causes a persistent infection with demyelination that is studied as a model for multiple sclerosis. Inbred strains of mice differ in their susceptibility to viral persistence due to both H-2 and non-H-2 genes. A locus with a major effect on persistence has been mapped on chromosome 10, close to the Ifng locus, using a cross between susceptible SJL/J and resistant B10.S mice. We now confirm the existence of this locus using two lines of congenic mice bearing the B10.S Ifng locus on an SJL/J background, and we describe a deletion in the promoter of the Ifng gene of the SJL/J mouse. We studied the expression of IFN-gamma, IL-2, IL-10, and IL-12 in the brains of SJL/J mice, B10.S mice, and the two lines of congenic mice during the first 2 wk following inoculation. We found a greater expression of IFN-gamma and IL-2 mRNA in the brains of B10.S mice compared with those of SJL/J mice. Also, the ratio of IL-12 to IL-10 mRNA levels was higher in B10.S mice. However, the cytokine profiles were the same for the two lines of resistant congenic mice and for susceptible SJL/J mice. Therefore, the difference of Th1/Th2 balance between the B10.S and SJL/J mice is not due to the Ifng locus and does not account for the difference of susceptibility of these mice to persistent infection. 相似文献

Intracranial infection of Theiler's murine encephalomyelitis virus (TMEV) induces demyelination and a neurological disease in susceptible SJL/J (SJL) mice that resembles multiple sclerosis. While the virus is cleared from the central nervous system (CNS) of resistant C57BL/6 (B6) mice, it persists in SJL mice. To investigate the role of viral persistence and its accompanying immune responses in the development of demyelinating disease, transgenic mice expressing the P1 region of the TMEV genome (P1-Tg) were employed. Interestingly, P1-Tg mice with the B6 background showed severe reductions in both CD4(+) and CD8(+) T-cell responses to capsid epitopes, while P1-Tg mice with the SJL background displayed transient reductions following viral infection. Reduced antiviral immune responses in P1-Tg mice led to >100- to 1,000-fold increases in viral persistence at 120 days postinfection in the CNS of mice with both backgrounds. Despite the increased CNS TMEV levels in these P1-Tg mice, B6 P1-Tg mice developed neither neuropathological symptoms nor demyelinating lesions, and SJL P1-Tg mice developed significantly less severe TMEV-induced demyelinating disease. These results strongly suggest that viral persistence alone is not sufficient to induce disease and that the level of T-cell immunity to viral capsid epitopes is critical for the development of demyelinating disease in SJL mice. 相似文献

The Tmevp3 locus controls the load of Theiler's virus RNA during persistent infection of the mouse central nervous system (CNS). We identified a candidate gene at this locus, Tmevpg1, by using a positional cloning approach. Tmevpg1 and its human ortholog, TMEVPG1, are expressed in the immune system and encode what appears to be a noncoding RNA. They are located in a cluster of cytokine genes that includes the genes for gamma interferon and one or two homolog of interleukin-10. We now report that Tmevpg1 is expressed in CNS-infiltrating immune cells of resistant B10.S mice, but not in those of susceptible SJL/J mice, following inoculation with Theiler's virus. The pattern of expression of Tmevpg1 is the same in B10.S mice and in SJL/J mice congenic for the resistant B10.S haplotype of Tmevp3. Nineteen polymorphisms were identified when the Tmevpg1 genes of B10.S and SJL/J mice were compared. Interestingly, Tmevpg1 is down regulated after in vitro stimulation of murine CD4(+) or CD8(+) splenocytes, whereas Ifng is up regulated. Similar patterns of expression of TMEVPG1 and IFNG were observed in human NK cells and CD4(+) and CD8(+) T lymphocytes. Therefore, Tmevpg1 is a strong candidate gene for the Tmevp3 locus and may be involved in the control of Ifng gene expression. 相似文献

During Theiler's murine encephalomyelitis virus (TMEV) infection of macrophages, it is thought that high interleukin-6 (IL-6) levels contribute to the demyelinating disease found in chronically infected SJL/J mice but absent in B10.S mice capable of clearing the infection. Therefore, IL-6 expression was measured in TMEV-susceptible SJL/J and TMEV-resistant B10.S macrophages during their infection with TMEV DA strain or responses to lipopolysaccharide (LPS) or poly(I · C). Unexpectedly, IL-6 production was greater in B10.S macrophages than SJL/J macrophages during the first 24 h after stimulation with TMEV, LPS, or poly(I · C). Further experiments showed that in B10.S, SJL/J, and RAW264.7 macrophage cells, IL-6 expression was dependent on extracellular signal-regulated kinase (ERK) mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK) and enhanced by exogenous IL-12. In SJL/J and RAW264.7 macrophages, exogenous IL-6 resulted in decreased TMEV replication, earlier activation of STAT1 and STAT3, production of nitric oxide, and earlier upregulation of several antiviral genes downstream of STAT1. However, neither inhibition of IL-6-induced nitric oxide nor knockdown of STAT1 diminished the early antiviral effect of exogenous IL-6. In addition, neutralization of endogenous IL-6 from SJL/J macrophages with Fab antibodies did not exacerbate early TMEV infection. Therefore, endogenous IL-6 expression after TMEV infection is dependent on ERK MAPK, enhanced by IL-12, but too slow to decrease viral replication during early infection. In contrast, exogenous IL-6 enhances macrophage control of TMEV infection through preemptive antiviral nitric oxide production and antiviral STAT1 activation. These results indicate that immediate-early production of IL-6 could protect macrophages from TMEV infection. 相似文献

Intraperitoneal challenge with street rabies virus of second-backcross offspring produced from susceptible females mated with either randomly selected or rabies-resistant first-backcross males indicated that murine resistance is under the influence of the concurrent presence of each of two segregating genes. Furthermore, the greater than or equal to 96% resistance of offspring produced from (SJL X CBA)F1 and (CBA X SJL)F1 hybrids crossed to susceptible A.SW or A/WySn mice demonstrated that resistance genes of SJL/J and CBA/J mice are allelic. 相似文献

Mouse adenovirus type 1 (MAV-1) targets endothelial and monocyte/macrophage cells throughout the mouse. Depending on the strain of mouse and dose or strain of virus, infected mice may survive, become persistently infected, or die. We surveyed inbred mouse strains and found that for the majority tested the 50% lethal doses (LD(50)s) were >10(4.4) PFU. However, SJL/J mice were highly susceptible to MAV-1, with a mean LD(50) of 10(-0.32) PFU. Infected C3H/HeJ (resistant) and SJL/J (susceptible) mice showed only modest differences in histopathology. Susceptible mice had significantly higher viral loads in the brain and spleen at 8 days postinfection than resistant mice. Infection of primary macrophages or mouse embryo fibroblasts from SJL/J and C3H/HeJ mice gave equivalent yields of virus, suggesting that a receptor difference between strains is not responsible for the susceptibility difference. When C3H/HeJ mice were subjected to sublethal doses of gamma irradiation, they became susceptible to MAV-1, with an LD(50) like that of SJL/J mice. Antiviral immunoglobulin G (IgG) levels were measured in susceptible and resistant mice infected by an early region 1A null mutant virus that is less virulent that wild-type virus. The antiviral IgG levels were high and similar in the two strains of mice. Taken together, these results suggest that immune response differences may in part account for differences in susceptibility to MAV-1 infection. 相似文献

The SJL mouse strain is resistant to infection by some strains of the murine coronavirus mouse hepatitis virus (MHV), such as JHM and A59. The block to virus infection has been variously attributed to defects in virus receptors or virus spread. Since the cellular receptors for MHV, mmCGM1 and mmCGM2, have recently been identified as members of the carcinoembryonic antigen family, we reexamined the possible defectiveness of the MHV receptors in SJL mouse strain. Cloning and sequencing of the cDNAs of both mmCGMs RNAs from SJL mice revealed that they were identical in size to those of the susceptible C57BL/6 (B6) mouse. There was some sequence divergence in the N terminus of the mmCGM molecules between the two mouse strains, resulting in a different number of potential glycosylation sites. This was confirmed by in vitro translation of the mmCGM RNAs, which showed that the glycosylated mmCGM2 of SJL was smaller than that of B6 mice. However, transfection of either mmCGM1 or mmCGM2 from SJL mice into MHV-resistant Cos 7 cells rendered the cells susceptible to MHV infection. The ability of the SJL mmCGM molecules to serve as MHV receptors was comparable to that of those from B6. These molecules are expressed in SJL mouse brain and liver in a similar ratio and in amounts equivalent to those in the B6 mouse. Furthermore, we demonstrated that an SJL-derived cell line was susceptible to A59 but resistant to JHM infection. We concluded that the MHV receptor molecules in the SJL mouse are functional and that the resistance of SJL mice to infection by some MHV strains most likely results from some other factor(s) required for virus entry or some other step(s) in virus replication. 相似文献

Genetic control of the natural killer cell activity in SJL and other strains of mice 总被引:4,自引:0,他引:4

Murine natural killer (NK) cell activity against lymphoma targets can be classified into three major functional phenotypes, i.e., low, inducible, and high, according to the levels of endogeneous activity and the extent of augmentation by interferon (IFN) or IFN inducers, as previously described. The prototype strains identifying these three phenotypes are SJL, A.SW, and B10.S, respectively, all bearing the H-2s haplotype. In the present study, the genetic basis of the low phenotype of SJL mice was examined further. F1 hybrid offspring of crosses between SJL and a strain with the high NK phenotype (B10.S, B10.D2, B10, C3H/HeN, or D1.LP) invariably expressed the high NK phenotype, indicating recessiveness of the low phenotype. Crosses between SJL and another low NK strain, such as A/J, A/HeN, or I/St, resulted in offspring of either the inducible or the high NK phenotype. Such genetic complementation between the low NK pairs indicates that the low phenotype of SJL and that of the other strains have different genetic bases. F1 hybrid mice between SJL and an inducible strain, A/WySn, were inducible, but those between SJL and the second inducible strain, A.SW, had the high NK phenotype. Thus, the congenic A/WySn and A.SW have distinct genotypes resulting in the same inducible phenotype. According to analyses of the segregating offspring from backcrosses of (SJL X B10.S)F1 mice to SJL, a single gene difference is responsible for the low endogenous level of NK activity in SJL as opposed to the high endogenous level in B10.S, and that the difference in three genes accounts for the poor responsiveness of NK cells to IFN in SJL mice. Studies of the two congenic lines of SJL, i.e., SJL-Igha and SJL-nu, indicated that the Igh locus is irrelevant for the low NK phenotype of SJL, but the nu locus clearly is relevant; SJL mice homozygous for the nu allele were phenotypically inducible in contrast to the nu/+ or +/+ mice which are low. The nu gene homozygosity rendered SJL mice responsive to IFN, not only in NK activity against lymphomas but also in ADCC activity against antibody-coated lymphoma cells. 相似文献

Differences in components of innate anti-viral immune responses may account for the contrast in susceptibility to Theiler's murine encephalomyelitis virus (TMEV) between SJL/J and B10.S mice. Herein, the expression of IL-12, interferon (IFN)-beta, Toll-like receptors 3 (TLR3), TLR7, and mitogen-activated protein (MAP)-kinases was evaluated in SJL/J and B10.S macrophages infected with TMEV. Twenty-four hours after infection, SJL/J macrophages exhibited higher levels of TMEV RNA, IL-12 p40, and TLR3 but lower levels of IL-12 p70 and the IL-12 p35 subunit compared with B10.S macrophages. Addition of exogenous IL-12 p70 or IFN-beta increased the resistance of SJL/J macrophages to TMEV infection. To assess MAP-kinases, macrophages were pretreated with the p38 MAP-kinase inhibitor SB203580 or extracellular signal-regulated kinases (ERK) MAP-kinase inhibitor U0126 before TMEV infection. U0126 reduced SJL/J but increased B10.S macrophage expression of IL-12 p40 and p70 in response to TMEV. U0126 decreased the IL-12 p35 response of SJL/J macrophages. To assess TLR7, SJL/J and B10.S macrophages were stimulated with loxoribine, a TLR7 ligand. Loxoribine induced more IL-12 p70 production and p35 expression in B10.S than SJL/J macrophages. U0126 increased loxoribine-induced expression of IL-12 p40 and IL-12 p70 in B10.S but not SJL/J macrophages. Thus, differences in production of IL-12 p70 due to expression of the p35 subunit and in activity of TLR7, as well as activation of factors downstream of ERK MAP-kinases likely underlie the disparity in innate immunity between SJL/J and B10.S macrophages to TMEV. 相似文献

The receptor for mouse hepatitis virus strain A59 (MHV-A59) is a 110- to 120-kilodalton (kDa) glycoprotein which is expressed in MHV-susceptible mouse strains on the membranes of hepatocytes, intestinal epithelial cells, and macrophages. SJL/J mice, which are highly resistant to MHV-A59, were previously shown to lack detectable levels of receptor by using either solid-phase virus receptor assays or binding of a monoclonal anti-receptor antibody (MAb) which blocks infection of MHV-susceptible mouse cells. This MAb was used for affinity purification of the receptor glycoprotein from livers of MHV-susceptible Swiss Webster mice. The MHV receptor and an antigenically related protein of 48 to 58 kDa were copurified and then separated by preparative sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis. The first 15 amino acids of the receptor were sequenced, and a synthetic peptide of this amino acid sequence was prepared. Rabbit antiserum made against this peptide bound to the MHV receptor glycoprotein and the 48- to 58-kDa protein from livers of MHV-susceptible BALB/c mice and Swiss Webster mice and from the intestinal brush border of BALB/c mice. In immunoblots of intestinal brush border and hepatocyte membranes of MHV-resistant SJL/J mice, the antibody against the amino terminus of the receptor identified proteins that are 5 to 10 kDa smaller than the MHV receptor and the 48- to 58-kDa related protein from Swiss Webster or BALB/c mice. Thus, SJL/J mice express a protein which shares some sequence homology with the MHV receptor but which lacks virus-binding activity and is not recognized by the blocking anti-receptor MAb. These results suggest that resistance of SJL/J mice to MHV-A59 may be due to absence or mutation of the virus-binding domain in the nonfunctional receptor homolog in SJL/J mice. 相似文献

Silica, an agent predominantly toxic for macrophages, inoculated i.v. to Friend leukemia virus (FLV)-infected mice, blocks the FLV-leukemosuppressive effects of chlorite-oxidized oxyamylose (COAM)-statolon treatment. FLV-infected, COAM-statolon-treated mice that have received silica and have failed to suppress FLV leukemia produced normal amounts of interferon, but did not make antibodies cytotoxic for FLV leukemic cells. Transfer of untreated spleen cells, splenic T cells, or thymocytes from mice with suppressed FLV erythroleukemia to FLV-infected mice treated with silica and COAM-statolon restores the humoral immune response to FLV antigens and results in leukemosuppression. Thus, T lymphocytes from mice with suppressed erythroleukemia participate in FLV leukemosuppression either directly as effector cells, or indirectly as helper cell in the production of antibodies to FLV antigens. 相似文献

Previously, we reported that myelin basic protein (MBP) peptide 1-37 contains an encephalitogenic epitope for PL/J mice, and MBP peptide 89-169 is encephalitogenic for SJL/J mice. (SJPL)F1 hybrid mice do not respond to immunization with these peptides in a co-dominant manner because the encephalitogenic response to peptide 1-37 dominates. To examine this phenomenon more closely, we tested the ability of MBP-primed parental or F1 T cells to respond to MBP or MBP peptides in the context of PL, SJL, or F1 antigen-presenting cells (APC). It was found that the F1 T cells responded to either the protein or the peptides when these were presented in the context of F1 or PL APC. However, F1 T cells would not respond to MBP in the context of SJL APC, although the latter cells were functionally intact. This effect was not antigen-specific because SJL APC would not present ovalbumin or PPD to primed F1 T cells. F1 T cells from mice immune to the strongly antigenic bacterium Listeria monocytogenes responded to bacterial antigens presented by SJL APC, although at a significantly lower level compared to the results obtained when these antigens were presented by F1 or PL APC. This finding implied that unbalanced antigen presentation was a quantitative rather than a qualitative phenomenon. When F1 hybrid mice from other strain combinations were tested, a similar effect was observed whenever one of the parental strains was PL/J. This effect was mapped to the MHC in MHC-congenic B10 mice. 相似文献

There has been a great deal of interest in adhesion molecules as targets for the treatment of multiple sclerosis and other inflammatory diseases. In this study, we systematically evaluate alpha(4) integrin and P-selectin as targets for therapy in murine models of multiple sclerosis-for the first time directly measuring the ability of their blockade to inhibit recruitment and relate this to clinical efficacy. Experimental autoimmune encephalomyelitis was induced in C57BL/6 or SJL/J mice and intravital microscopy was used to quantify leukocyte interactions within the CNS microvasculature. In both strains, pretreatment with blocking Abs to either alpha(4) integrin or P-selectin reduced firm adhesion to a similar extent, but did not block it completely. The combination of the Abs was more effective than either Ab alone, although the degree of improvement was more evident in SJL/J mice. Similarly, dual blockade was much more effective at preventing the subsequent accumulation of fluorescently labeled leukocytes in the tissue in both strains. Despite evidence of blockade of leukocyte recruitment mechanisms, no clinical benefit was observed with anti-adhesion molecule treatments or genetic deletion of P-selectin in the C57BL/6 model, or in a pertussis toxin-modified model in SJL/J mice. In contrast, Abs to alpha(4) integrin resulted in a significant delay in the onset of clinical signs of disease in the standard SJL/J model. Despite evidence of a similar ability to block firm adhesion, Abs to P-selectin had no effect. Importantly, combined blockade of both adhesion molecules resulted in significantly better clinical outcome than anti-alpha(4) integrin alone. 相似文献

Effects of Friend leukemia virus (FLV) inoculation in F1 specific pathogen free (SPF) mice were examined. Resistance to FLV was dominantly inherited both in F1 hybrid mice (BDF1) (FLV-resistant & FLV-sensitive with polycythemia) and F1 hybrid mice (B6C3F1) (FLV-resistant & FLV-sensitive with anemia). But the population dynamics of the nucleated cell components of F1 mice after FLV inoculation differed from those of FLV-resistant inbred mice. A small number of mature erythroblasts appeared in the peripheral blood of BDF1 mice. In B6C3F1 mice, erythroblastosis with splenomegaly and polycythemia occurred. However, all of these findings in BDF1 and B6C3F1 mice regressed spontaneously. In F1 mice, FLV induced an intermediate reactive pattern of the two patterns that had been induced in the parental strains. The results indicate that FLV may induce leukemia with various degrees of differentiation, according to the genetic difference of the host. 相似文献

Intracerebral inoculation of susceptible strains of mice with Theiler's murine encephalomyelitis virus (TMEV) results in a chronic, immunologically mediated demyelinating disease that shares many features with human multiple sclerosis. CD4+ T lymphocytes play a critical role in the pathogenesis of virus-induced demyelinating disease. We have identified a region within amino acid residues 24 to 37 of the VP3 capsid protein of TMEV (VP3(24-37)) that is recognized by T lymphocytes from the demyelination-susceptible SJL/J strain of mice. The T-cell response to VP3(24-37) represents a predominant Th-cell response against the virus from either TMEV-immunized or TMEV-infected SJL/J mice, and viral epitopes VP1(233-250), VP2(74-86), and VP3(24-37) account for most of the Th-cell response to TMEV. 相似文献

The molecular mechanism of genetic resistance of inbred mouse strains to mouse hepatitis virus, a murine coronavirus, was studied by comparing virus binding to plasma membranes of intestinal epithelium or liver from susceptible BALB/c and resistant SJL/J mice with a new solid-phase assay for virus-binding activity. Virus bound to isolated membranes from susceptible mice, but not to membranes from resistant mice. F1 progeny of SJL/J X BALB/c mice had an intermediate level of virus-binding activity on their enterocyte and hepatocyte membranes. This correlated well with previous studies showing that susceptibility to mouse hepatitis virus strain A59 is controlled by a single autosomal dominant gene (M. S. Smith, R. E. Click, and P. G. W. Plagemann, J. Immunol. 133:428-432). Because virus binding was not prevented by treating membranes with sodium dodecyl sulfate, the virus-binding molecule could be identified by a virus overlay protein blot assay. Virus bound to a single broad band of Mr 100,000 to 110,000 in membranes from hepatocytes or enterocytes of susceptible BALB/c and semisusceptible C3H mice, but no virus-binding band was detected in comparable preparations of resistant SJL/J mouse membranes. Therefore, SJL/J mice may be resistant to mouse hepatitis virus A59 infection because they lack a specific virus receptor which is present on the plasma membranes of target cells from genetically susceptible BALB/c and semisusceptible C3H mice. 相似文献

Synthetic peptides of proteolipid protein (PLP) were screened for their ability to induce experimental autoimmune encephalomyelitis (EAE) in SJL/J, PL/J, and (SJL x PL)F1 mice, and T cell lines were selected by stimulation of lymph node cells with PLP peptides. PLP 141-151 was found to be less encephalitogenic in SJL/J mice than PLP 139-151, due to deletion of two amino acids from the amino-terminal end. PLP 139-151 immunization induced relapsing EAE in SJL/J and F1 mice but not PL/J mice. In contrast, PLP 43-64 induced relapsing EAE in PL/J and F1 mice but not SJL/J mice. F1 T cell lines specific for either PLP 43-64 or PLP 139-151 adoptively transferred demyelinating EAE to naive F1 recipients. Haplotypes H-2s and H-2u appear to be immunologically co-dominant in F1 mice in the PLP EAE system, which differs from the H-2u dominance in F1 mice in the myelin basic protein EAE system. The identification of a PLP peptide that is encephalitogenic in PL/J mice, in addition to the previous demonstration of PLP peptides that are encephalitogenic for SWR mice (PLP 103-116) and SJL/J mice (PLP 139-151), lends support to a role for PLP as a target Ag in autoimmune demyelinating diseases. 相似文献

Seven strains of mice were examined to determine why susceptibility differences and variations in clinical central nervous system (CNS) disease occurred among these animals after intraperitoneal inoculation of street rabies virus (SRV). Trace experiments for infectious virus indicated that these differences were associated with restriction of virus replication within the CNS. Limitation of viral replication appeared to correlate with the antibody response in that prominent serum anti-SRV neutralizing antibody titers were detected in resistant strains, whereas susceptible strains produced minimal amounts of antibody until their death. The importance of the immune response was reaffirmed with cyclophosphamide studies in that all resistant SJL/J mice died after immunosuppressive treatment. In contrast, cyclophosphamide-treated SJL/J mice whose immune systems were reconstituted with either unfractionated immune spleen cells or with sera 24 h after SRV inoculation survived a lethal dose of SRV. More importantly, immunosuppressed SJL/J and immunodeficient athymic mice were protected when reconstituted with immune serum 72 h after SRV inoculation, a time in which infectious virus was detected in the spinal cords of some mice but was not present in the peritoneal cavity. Additional studies showed that antibody in the cerebrospinal fluid was unimportant in the resistance of mouse strains which remained clinically asymptomatic, but it appeared to be associated with the survival of mice which developed clinical CNS disease. Furthermore, CNS resistance to intranasal or intracerebral inoculation with challenge virus standard rabies virus developed as early as 5 days post-intraperitoneal inoculation of SRV. 相似文献

SJL/J, PL/J, and (SJL/J x PL/J)F1 mice were immunized with bovine, guinea pig, mouse, or rat myelin basic proteins (MBP) in adjuvant containing Mycobacterium tuberculosis H37Ra. Twenty-four and 72 hr later, Bordetella pertussis vaccine was given i.v. All MBP tested induced experimental allergic encephalomyelitis (EAE) in SJL/J and F1 mice; however, bovine MBP was inactive in PL/J mice. Each strain was immunized in a similar manner with peptic peptides, residues 1-37, 43-88, and 89-169 of guinea pig MBP. In contrast to the SJL/J strain, which has been shown to recognize a major encephalitogenic determinant in peptide 89-169, PL/J and F1 mice responded primarily to an encephalitogenic determinant within peptide 1-37. Analysis of antibody levels showed that SJL/J mice made no antibody to peptide 1-37, although anti-peptide 89-169 antibodies were consistently found. Conversely, PL/J mice responded well to peptide 1-37, but only an occasional animal made a significant response to peptide 89-169. (SJL/J x PL/J)F1 mice were more susceptible to EAE than either parental strain, as shown by the percentage of animals showing neurologic signs and by clinical severity. 相似文献
