Abstract:
:Venezuelan equine encephalitis virus (VEE) is an important equine and human pathogen of the Americas. In the adult mouse model, cDNA-derived, virulent V3000 inoculated subcutaneously (s.c.) causes high-titer peripheral replication followed by neuroinvasion and lethal encephalitis. A single change (G to A) at nucleotide 3 (nt 3) of the 5' untranslated region (UTR) of the V3000 genome resulted in a virus (V3043) that was avirulent in mice. The mechanism of attenuation by the V3043 mutation was studied in vivo and in vitro. Kinetic studies of virus spread in adult mice following s.c. inoculation showed that V3043 replication was reduced in peripheral organs compared to that of V3000, titers in serum also were lower, and V3043 was cleared more rapidly from the periphery than V3000. Because clearance of V3043 from serum began 1 to 2 days prior to clearance of V3000, we examined the involvement of alpha/beta interferon (IFN-alpha/beta) activity in VEE pathogenesis. In IFN-alpha/betaR(-/-) mice, the course of the wild-type disease was extremely rapid, with all animals dying within 48 h (average survival time of 30 h compared to 7.7 days in the wild-type mice). The mutant V3043 was as virulent as the wild type (100% mortality, average survival time of 30 h). Virus titers in serum, peripheral organs, and the brain were similar in V3000- and V3043-infected IFN-alpha/betaR(-/-) mice at all time points up until the death of the animals. Consistent with the in vivo data, the mutant virus exhibited reduced growth in vitro in several cell types except in cells that lacked a functional IFN-alpha/beta pathway. In cells derived from IFN-alpha/betaR(-/-) mice, the mutant virus showed no growth disadvantage compared to the wild-type virus, suggesting that IFN-alpha/beta plays a major role in the attenuation of V3043 compared to V3000. There were no differences in the induction of IFN-alpha/beta between V3000 and V3043, but the mutant virus was more sensitive than V3000 to the antiviral actions of IFN-alpha/beta in two separate in vitro assays, suggesting that the increased sensitivity to IFN-alpha/beta plays a major role in the in vivo attenuation of V3043.
