Differential expression of proinflammatory cytokine genes in vivo in response to pathogenic and nonpathogenic pneumovirus infections.
Pneumonia virus of mice (PVM; Paramyxoviridae, subfamily Pneumovirinae) is an important pathogen for the study of physiologically relevant acute inflammatory responses in rodent hosts. In contrast to the severe symptomatology observed in response to infection with PVM strain J3666, infection with strain 15 resulted in few clinical symptoms, limited cellular inflammatory response, and no product...
متن کاملMechanical ventilation enhances lung inflammation and caspase activity in a model of mouse pneumovirus infection.
Severe infection with respiratory syncytial virus (RSV) in children can progress to respiratory distress and acute lung injury (ALI). Accumulating evidence suggests that mechanical ventilation (MV) is an important cofactor in the development of ALI by modulating the host immune responses to bacteria. This study investigates whether MV enhances the host response to pneumonia virus of mice (PVM),...
متن کاملApoptosis in Pneumovirus Infection
Pneumovirus infections cause a wide spectrum of respiratory disease in humans and animals. The airway epithelium is the major site of pneumovirus replication. Apoptosis or regulated cell death, may contribute to the host anti-viral response by limiting viral replication. However, apoptosis of lung epithelial cells may also exacerbate lung injury, depending on the extent, the timing and specifi...
متن کاملProduction and differentiation of myeloid cells driven by proinflammatory cytokines in response to acute pneumovirus infection in mice.
Respiratory virus infections are often pathogenic, driving severe inflammatory responses. Most research has focused on localized effects of virus infection and inflammation. However, infection can induce broad-reaching, systemic changes that are only beginning to be characterized. In this study, we assessed the impact of acute pneumovirus infection in C57BL/6 mice on bone marrow hematopoiesis. ...
متن کاملGene expression in epithelial cells in response to pneumovirus infection
Respiratory syncytial virus (RSV) and pneumonia virus of mice (PVM) are viruses of the family Paramyxoviridae, subfamily pneumovirus, which cause clinically important respiratory infections in humans and rodents, respectively. The respiratory epithelial target cells respond to viral infection with specific alterations in gene expression, including production of chemoattractant cytokines, adhesi...
