Viral infection-homograft interactions in a murine model.
The effects on some host defenses of murine cytomegalovirus (MCMV) and(or) EL(4), a mouse ascites homograft, were studied in mice. Assays of cellular and humoral immunity in response to either or both of these perturbations were carried out by quantitation of various immune activities.Limited studies demonstrated no effect of EL(4) inoculation on the host response to MCMV by organ viral titer, ...
متن کاملGlycosaminoglycan Interactions in Murine Gammaherpesvirus-68 Infection
Glycosaminoglycans (GAGs) commonly participate in herpesvirus entry. They are thought to provide a reversible attachment to cells that promotes subsequent receptor binding. Murine gamma-herpesvirus-68 (MHV-68) infection of fibroblasts and epithelial cells is highly GAG-dependent. This is a function of the viral gp150, in that gp150-deficient mutants are much less GAG-dependent than wild-type. H...

متن کاملMethamphetamine mediates immune dysregulation in a murine model of chronic viral infection
Methamphetamine (METH) is a highly addictive psychostimulant that not only affects the brain and cognitive functions but also greatly impacts the host immune system, rendering the body susceptible to infections and exacerbating the severity of disease. Although there is gathering evidence about METH abuse and increased incidence of HIV and other viral infections, not much is known about the eff...
متن کاملStreptococcus pyogenes SpyCEP Influences Host-Pathogen Interactions during Infection in a Murine Air Pouch Model
Streptococcus pyogenes is a major human pathogen worldwide, responsible for both local and systemic infections. These bacteria express the subtilisin-like protease SpyCEP which cleaves human IL-8 and related chemokines. We show that localization of SpyCEP is growth-phase and strain dependent. Significant shedding was observed only in a strain naturally overexpressing SpyCEP, and shedding was no...
