          Abstract

          A baixa eficiência de penetração de alguns vírus em células de cultivo pode representar uma dificuldade para o isolamento e a multiplicação viral in vitro. No presente estudo investigou-se o efeito do polietilenoglicol (PEG) na replicação de sete vírus bovinos em células de linhagem de rim bovino (MDBK). A eficiência de penetração e replicação foi mensurada pela contagem do número de placas virais produzidas em tapetes celulares, após adsorção do inóculo viral (100 DICC50 mL-1) com ou sem a adição de PEG a 5% (peso molecular 6.000). A adição de PEG ao inóculo resultou em aumentos significativos do número de placas para o vírus da diarréia viral bovina (BVDV) (aumento de 3,4 vezes), vírus da estomatite vesicular (VSV) (2,2 vezes) e vírus respiratório sincicial bovino (BRSV) (1,5 vezes). A adição de PEG não produziu aumento significativo no número de placas dos herpesvírus bovinos 1, 2 e 5 (BoHV-1, BoHV-2 e BoHV-5). Por outro lado, o PEG produziu uma redução do número de placas (1,4 vezes) produzidas pelo vírus da parainfluenza bovina (bPI-3V). A adição de PEG a 5% também aumentou a sensibilidade de detecção (entre 10 e 100 vezes) do BVDV no soro de três bezerros persistentemente infectados. Para o BRSV, a adição de PEG aumentou em duas vezes a sensibilidade do isolamento viral de secreções nasais de duas ovelhas infectadas experimentalmente. Esses resultados demonstram que o PEG aumenta a eficiência de infecção do BVDV, VSV e BRSV em células de cultivo, podendo ser utilizado para aumentar a sensibilidade de detecção desses vírus em amostras clínicas (isolamento viral) e/ou, para aumentar os títulos de vírus produzidos em cultivo celular.

          The low efficiency of penetration of some viruses in cultured cells may represent an obstacle for viral isolation and/or viral multiplication in tissue culture. This study investigated the effect of polyethylene glycol (PEG) on the penetration and replication of seven bovine enveloped viruses in culture cells. Penetration efficiency was measured by counting the number of viral plaques produced in bovine kidney cells (MDBK). The addition of 5% PEG (molecular weight 6.000) to the viral inoculum containing 100 TCID50 mL-1 (tissue culture median infectious dosis) of each virus, during adsorption for 2h at 37°C, resulted in a significant increase in the number of plaques for bovine viral diarrhea virus (BVDV) (increase of 3.4-fold), vesicular stomatitis virus (VSV) (2.2-fold) and bovine respiratory syncytial virus (BRSV) (1.5-fold). The addition of 5% PEG to the inoculum of bovine herpesviruses 1, 2 and 5 (BoHV-1, BoHV-2 and BoHV-5) did not increase the number of viral plaques. On the other hand, PEG produced a reduction in the number of plaques by bovine parainfluenza virus (bPI-3V) (1.4-fold). Furthermore, the addition of 5% PEG produced a 10- to 1000-fold increase in the sensitivity of BVDV detection in the serum of three persistently infected calves; and doubled the sensitivity of detection of BRSV in nasal secretions of two experimentally infected sheep. These results demonstrate that PEG enhances the efficiency of infection by BVDV, VSV and BRSV in cultured bovine cells and therefore may be used to increase the sensitivity of virus detection in clinical samples (viral isolation), and/or to increase virus titers in cell cultures.

          Paramyxovirus membrane fusion: Lessons from the F and HN atomic structures

          Paramyxoviruses enter cells by fusion of their lipid envelope with the target cell plasma membrane. Fusion of the viral membrane with the plasma membrane allows entry of the viral genome into the cytoplasm. For paramyxoviruses, membrane fusion occurs at neutral pH, but the trigger mechanism that controls the viral entry machinery such that it occurs at the right time and in the right place remains to be elucidated. Two viral glycoproteins are key to the infection process—an attachment protein that varies among different paramyxoviruses and the fusion (F) protein, which is found in all paramyxoviruses. For many of the paramyxoviruses (parainfluenza viruses 1–5, mumps virus, Newcastle disease virus and others), the attachment protein is the hemagglutinin/neuraminidase (HN) protein. In the last 5 years, atomic structures of paramyxovirus F and HN proteins have been reported. The knowledge gained from these structures towards understanding the mechanism of viral membrane fusion is described.

              Reproducible high level infection of cultured adult human hepatocytes by hepatitis B virus: effect of polyethylene glycol on adsorption and penetration.

              We have previously succeeded in infecting normal human hepatocyte primary cultures with hepatitis B virus (HBV). However, infection was subject to individual variations even in the presence of dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO), which appeared to increase the amounts of viral DNA associated with the cells. In this study, we have defined conditions which enhance hepatitis B virus penetration into the cells, and we show that, under these conditions, infection of hepatocytes is always possible, regardless of their individual origin. We have found that addition of polyethylene glycol (PEG) to the cultures maintained in the presence of 2% DMSO at the time of infection markedly increased the infection process and made it highly reproducible. Moreover, both the tissue and species specificity were preserved. This increased HBV infection was correlated to increased amount of internalized HBV DNA and to enhanced attachment of the virions. From these results it may be assumed that PEG could favor a better interaction between virions and cells, resulting in an activated internalization of bound viral particles. Data also show that adult human hepatocyte primary cultures, which are not equally susceptible to HBV infection, are consistently capable of viral replication when the viral genome has entered the cells. This suggests that the main limitation of the in vitro HBV infection lies in the ability of human hepatocytes to specifically bind the viral particles.
