Abstract

This study demonstrates that neutralizing-antibody-producing B cells, CD4(+) T cells, and interferons (IFNs) are of key importance in virus control both in adoptive immunotherapy of persistent infection and in the late phase of acute infection with the WE strain of lymphocytic choriomeningitis virus (LCMV). We report the following results. (i) Clearance of LCMV-WE from C57BL/6 carrier mice by adoptive transfer of memory spleen cells requires B cells and CD4(+) T cells but not necessarily CD8(+) T cells. (ii) At the doses examined, CD8(+) T cells contribute to the initial reduction of viral titers but are alone not sufficient to clear the virus because they are exhausted. (iii) In the presence of functional IFN-gamma, virus clearance correlates well with the generation of neutralizing antibodies in the treated carrier mice. (iv) In the absence of receptors for IFN-gamma, virus clearance is not achieved. (v) Adoptive immunotherapy of mice persistently infected with a distinct virus isolate, LCMV-Armstrong, revealed only low levels of neutralizing antibodies; in this case, CD8(+) T cells were needed for virus clearance in addition to B and CD4(+) T cells. (vi) After low dose infection of C57BL/6 mice with LCMV-WE, virus is elimina...Continue Reading
