Abstract:
:The behavior of two genetically different molecular clones of visna virus KV1772-kv72/67 and LV1-1KS1 was compared in vivo and in vitro. On intracerebral inoculation, clone KV1772-kv72/67 induced a similar response in five sheep as has already been reported with neurovirulent derivates of visna virus. Virus was frequently isolated from blood, cerebrospinal fluid (CSF), and lymphoid organs and induced characteristic central nervous system (CNS) lesions. A strong humoral immune response was detected by ELISA, immunoblotting, and neutralization. Six sheep infected with clone LV1-1KS1 showed a completely different picture. No virus could be isolated from blood or CSF during 6 months of infection. At sacrifice all organs were virus-negative except the CNS of one sheep. None of the six sheep developed significant neutralizing antibodies and only low titer antibodies were detected by ELISA and immunoblotting. Minimal CNS lesions were present in one sheep. The molecular clones were also tested in sheep choroid plexus cells (SCP) and macrophages. In macrophages LV1-1KS1 replicated to a significantly lower titer but induced much more cell fusion than KV1772-kv72/67. The clones replicated equally well in SCP cells. Thus, these molecular clones of visna virus, which differ only by 1% in nucleotide sequence, showed a profound difference in replication and pathogenicity both in vitro and in vivo. These results can be used to map viral genetic determinants important for host-lentivirus interactions.
