Recombinant cytomegalovirus glycoprotein gB (UL55) induces an autoantibody response to the U1-70 kDa small nuclear ribonucleoprotein.

Abstract:

:Human cytomegalovirus (CMV) infection can be life threatening in the immune compromised and is associated with congenital defects and / or mental retardation in the neonate. The demonstrated association between CMV infection and rheumatoid factor (RF) raised the possibility of an induction of an autoimmune response upon vaccination with a candidate CMV vaccine, glycoprotein gB (UL55). The antibody responses generated after injections of an adenovirus-gB construct (Ad-gB) were studied in autoimmune-prone (MRL/mpj) and normal (BALB.k, C3H, and BALB/c) mice. Enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay and immunoblot analyses were done to identify the autoantibodies produced following immunization. Immunization with Ad-gB induced a significant IgG anti-viral response in all strains tested (p < 0.0001) compared to phosphate-buffered saline or HeLa controls. Ad-gB induced a significant IgG autoantibody response (p > 0.005) to the U1-70 kDa spliceosome protein in both autoimmune and normal strains whereas immunization with recombinant human La/SS-B did not. Autoantibodies to U1-70 kDa are part of the anti-ribonucleoprotein response seen in systemic lupus erythematosus and mixed connective tissue disease. Low levels of IgG RF and anti-double-stranded DNA antibodies were also induced. This study raises concern that immunization with CMV gB in individuals genetically predisposed to autoimmunity could trigger the development or acceleration of an autoimmune disease.
