Role of human cytomegalovirus genotype polymorphisms in AIDS patients with cytomegalovirus retinitis
Jens-Uwe Vogel Jürgen Otte Frank Koch Hermann Gümbel Hans Wilhelm Doerr Jindrich Cinatl Jr. 《Medical microbiology and immunology》2013,202(1):37-47
Although several host factors have been identified to influence the course of HCMV infection, it still remains unclear why in AIDS patients without highly active antiretroviral therapy human cytomegalovirus (HCMV) retinitis is one of the most common opportunistic infections, whereas in other immunosuppressed individuals it has a low incidence. It was suggested that HCMV glycoprotein B strains may be suitable as marker for virulence and HCMV retinitis. Moreover, UL144 ORF, a member of the TNF-α receptor superfamily, may play a crucial role in innate defences and adaptive immune response of HCMV infection. Furthermore, sequence analyses of HCMV genes UL128, UL130, and UL131A as major determinants of virus entry and replication in epithelial and other cell types were performed. To evaluate the association of sequence variability of depicted viral genes with HCMV retinitis and in vitro growth properties in retinal pigment epithelial cells (RPE) and human foreskin fibroblasts (HFF), we compared 14 HCMV isolates obtained from vitreous fluid and urine of AIDS patients with clinically proven HCMV retinitis. Isolates were analyzed by PCR cycle sequencing and phylogenetic analysis. In addition, sequences of HCMV strains AF1, U8, U11, VR1814, and its cell culture adapted derivates were included. Sequence analysis of gB yielded three genetic subtypes (gB type 1 (5 isolates), gB type 2 (12 isolates), and gB type 3 (5 Isolates)), whereas sequence analysis of UL144 showed a greater diversity (7 isolates type 1A, 2 isolates type 1C, 7 isolates type 2, and 3 isolates type 3). In contrast, the UL128, UL130, and UL131A genes of all low-passage isolates were highly conserved and showed no preferential clustering. Moreover, in HFF and RPE cells, all of our HCMV isolates replicated efficiently independently of their genetic subtype. In conclusion, beside a possible link between the gB subtype 2 and HCMV retinitis, our study found no direct evidence for a connection between UL144/UL128/UL130/UL131A genotypes and the incidence of HCMV retinitis in AIDS patients. 相似文献

The human cytomegalovirus (HCMV) glycoproteins gH (UL75) and gL (UL115) can form complexes with gO (UL74) or with proteins
of the UL128-UL131A locus. Deletion of gO abolishes cell-free virus transmission and renders cell-associated virus transmission
in fibroblasts more sensitive to inhibition by human anti-HCMV serum. To test whether the latter effect is specific for gO,
we compared mutants with deletions in UL74, UL99 and the UL128-131A locus regarding their sensitivity to anti-HCMV antibodies.
UL74 deletion mutants were more sensitive to a further restriction by polyspecific or gH-specific antibodies than control
mutants, showing that gO specifically protects focal growth against inhibitory antibodies. This effect was not confined to
gH-specific antibodies, as UL74 deletion mutants were also inhibited by an anti-gB antibody. In conclusion, gO specifically
promotes focal spread in the presence of gH and gB antibodies, thus contributing to the ability of HCMV to resist the host’s
immune response. 相似文献

Ganciclovir resistance mutations in UL97 and UL54 genes of Human cytomegalovirus isolates resistant to ganciclovir 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2
Human cytomegalovirus (HCMV) resistance to ganciclovir results from mutations in viral phosphotransferase (UL97) and/or DNA polymerase (UL54) genes. The HCMV isolates from the blood of immunocompromised patients with persisting presence of the pp65 antigen in the blood in spite of ganciclovir therapy were tested for ganciclovir susceptibility by an immediate-early antigen plaque reduction assay, and the UL54 and UL97 genes were sequenced. Nine isolates from eight patients (six patients with acquired immune deficiency syndrome (AIDS), one liver transplant recipient and one renal transplant recipient) showed phenotypic resistance to ganciclovir. All these ganciclovir-resistant HCMV isolates harbored one or more of the following UL97 mutations: M460V, A594V, A594T, L595S, C603W, and M615V. Two isolates harbored the P522S mutation in the UL54 gene. The M615V mutation in the UL97 gene has not been reported earlier and its role in ganciclovir resistance remains to be elucidated. In ganciclovir-resistant HCMV isolates the UL54 gene was less frequently mutated than the UL97 gene. The P522S mutation was relatively frequent in UL54-mutated HCMV isolates. 相似文献

Human cytomegalovirus (HCMV) viral chemokine, UL146, and TNF alpha-like receptor UL144 genes show a high degree of hypervariability in clinical isolates. These proteins are predicted to be immune modulators and may contribute to the pathogenesis of HCMV infections. We analyzed the UL146 and UL144 genetic variation of 51 HCMV isolates from congenitally infected children and 13 isolates from children in childcare. There was no statistically significant correlation between UL146 and UL144 genotypes and HCMV disease and/or sequelae. However, there were some groups that had a relatively large proportion of asymptomatic outcomes. These included UL146 group 8 (7/8 asymptomatic) and UL146 group 10 (3/3 asymptomatic). UL144 group B had 11/15 (73%) asymptomatic. UL146 and UL144 genes remained stable in serial isolates from children in daycare for intervals up to three years. These results indicate that most UL146 and UL144 genotypes do not predict clinical sequelae following congenital HCMV infections. 相似文献

Human cytomegalovirus (HCMV) has been routinely isolated from and propagated in vitro in human embryonic lung fibroblast (HELF) cell cultures, while in vivo it is known to infect predominantly endothelial and epithelial cells. In recent years, genetic determinants of the HCMV tropism for endothelial/epithelial cells were identified in the UL131A/UL130/UL128 locus of HCMV genome of wild‐type strains. UL131A‐UL128 gene products form a complex with glycoprotein H (gH) and L (gL) resulting in a gH/gL/UL131A‐UL128 complex that is required for HCMV entry into endothelial/epithelial cells. In contrast, virus entry into fibroblasts has its genetic determinants in the complex gH/gL/gO (or gH/gL). During primary HCMV infection, the neutralising antibody response measured in endothelial cells (EC) is potent, occurs very early and is directed mostly against combinations of two or three gene products of the UL131A‐128 locus. On the contrary, neutralising antibodies measured in fibroblasts appear late, are relatively weak in potency and are directed against gH and gB. The T‐cell immune response to UL131A‐UL128 gene products remains to be investigated. Recently, a role has been proposed for neutralising antibody in conferring prevention/protection against HCMV infection/disease in pregnant women with primary HCMV infection. However, the level of cooperation between humoral immunity and the well‐established T‐cell protection remains to be defined. Copyright © 2010 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd. 相似文献

Recombinant HCMV UL128 expression and functional identification of PBMC-attracting activity in vitro
Human cytomegalovirus (HCMV) has evolved several immune evasion strategies. One strategy is controlling the movement of peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs) by encoding homologues of chemokines. Our aim was to determine whether HCMV open reading frame (ORF) UL128 could encode a protein that attracts PBMCs like a β-chemokine. The recombinant UL128 protein was synthesized by construction of a stably transfected CHO-UL128 cell line, and a chemotaxis assay showed that UL128 was able to attract PBMCs with a potency equal to that of MIP-1α in vitro. We hypothesize that UL128 protein may act as a β-chemokine homologue in viral pathogenesis. 相似文献

Human cytomegalovirus a sequence and UL144 variability in strains from infected children 总被引:11,自引:0,他引:11
Human cytomegalovirus (HCMV) displays genetic polymorphisms. This variability may contribute to strain-specific tissue tropism and disease expression in HCMV-infected humans. To determine strain variability in a sequence and UL144 gene regions, 51 low-passage isolates from 44 HCMV-infected children were studied. Isolates were obtained from 28 healthy children attending child care centers in Iowa and from 16 congenitally infected infants born in Texas. Isolates demonstrated substantial nucleotide variation in each gene region. Phylogenetic analysis of a sequence variability allowed 39 isolates to be grouped into six clades. The largest clade contained 16 isolates with > or = 95% nucleotide homology. Forty-eight of the 49 HCMV isolates yielding UL144 amplicons was grouped according to the clades described a few years ago [Lurain et al. (1999) Journal of Virology 73:10040-10050]. No linkage was observed among a sequence, UL144, and glycoprotein B (gB; UL55) polymorphisms. Four Texas and 11 Iowa isolates displayed > or = 95% sequence homology for a sequence and UL144 regions and possessed identical gB genotypes. No relationship between UL144 polymorphisms and outcome of congenital HCMV infection was observed. These data indicate that HCMV strains circulating among young children have UL144 polymorphisms similar to those of HCMV strains excreted by immunocompromised adults. Identification of conserved nucleotide sequences among Iowa and Texas children suggests genetic stability and biologic importance of these gene regions. 相似文献

Structure and variability of the UL149 open reading frame from low-passage clinical isolates of human cytomegalovirus 总被引:3,自引:0,他引:3
Human cytomegalovirus (HCMV), a ubiquitous herpesvirus, causes a lifelong subclinical infection in healthy adults but leads to significant morbidity and mortality in neonates and immunocompromised individuals. A region (referred to as UL/b') present in the Toledo strain of HCMV and low passage clinical isolates contains 19 additional genes, which are absent in the highly passage laboratory strain AD169. One of these genes, UL149 open reading frame, was amplified by PCR and sequenced from isolates obtained from infants with congenital HCMV infection, to determine whether genetic variation of this gene could influence the signs of the virus infection. The major finding is that the UL149 is a variable gene in all 26 clinical isolates, and the sequences from clinical isolates were classified into three major groups. It is concluded that the HCMV UL149 sequence is variable at the nucleotide level and it might play an important role in HCMV infection. 相似文献

Human cytomegalovirus (HCMV) is the most common congenital infection. HCMV strains display genetic variability in different regions. Distribution of HCMV genotypes in the population of congenitally infected newborns from Central Poland and viral load in newborns' blood is described and discussed. HCMV isolates were analysed by sequencing at three sites on the genome: the UL144 tumour necrosis factor-alpha (TNFα)-like receptor gene, the US28 beta-chemokine receptor gene and the UL55 envelope glycoprotein B (gB) gene. The newborns' blood was examined for HCMV DNA with a nested (UL144, UL55) or heminested (US28) polymerase chain reaction, and the genotypes were determined by sequence analysis. HCMV DNA was detectable in 25 out of 55 examined newborns born by HCMV-infected mothers (45.5%). The blood viral load in mother-infant pairs was determined. Most of the newborns had identical virus genotype, gB2 (96%), UL144 B1 (88%) and US28 A2 (84%). These genotypes were detected in all newborns with asymptomatic congenital infection. The occurrence of UL144 B1 or US28 A2 genotypes in the babies examined was significant in comparison to other genotypes (p=0.0002 and p=0.040 respectively). There was no association between specific gB subtypes in all patients groups (p=0.463). There was no correlation between HCMV genotypes and the outcome. 相似文献

Sequence variability of the alpha-chemokine UL146 from clinical strains of human cytomegalovirus 总被引:6,自引:0,他引:6

Human cytomegalovirus (HCMV) is a ubiquitous pathogen that infects a variety of cell types in vivo. A region (referred to as UL/b') present in the Toledo strain of HCMV and low passage clinical isolates contains 22 additional genes, which are absent in the highly passaged laboratory strain AD169. One of these genes, UL146, encodes an alpha-chemokine. PCR amplification and sequencing of this gene from serial samples obtained from transplant recipients and samples from infants with suspected congenital HCMV infection, revealed that UL146 is a hypervariable gene in vivo. However, genetic changes were highly conserved in individuals and in renal transplant recipients multiple genotypes of UL146 were present. The majority of strains characterized maintained the conserved ELRCXC motif present in the Toledo strain of HCMV. These results provide further evidence that AD169 does not represent the authentic virus in vivo and although Towne and Toledo are more representative, major genetic differences still exist. Mixed populations of HCMV strains occur in vivo so cloning of these strains is essential if an authentic genotype is to be defined. 相似文献
