Sphingomyelin generated by sphingomyelin synthase 1 is involved in attachment and infection with Japanese encephalitis virus
Japanese encephalitis virus (JEV) is a mosquito-borne RNA virus which infects target cells via the envelope protein JEV-E. However, its cellular targets are largely unknown. To investigate the role of sphingomyelin (SM) in JEV infection, we utilized SM-deficient immortalized mouse embryonic fibroblasts (tMEF) established from SM synthase 1 (SMS1)/SMS2 double knockout mice. SMS deficiency signif...
متن کاملExperimental infection of Japanese encephalitis virus in dogs.
A previous serosurvey of Japanese encephalitis virus (JEV) among dogs suggested that dogs are well suited for use as sentinels for assessing the risk of JEV transmission to humans. To examine the clinical symptoms and duration of anti-JEV antibodies in dogs, three dogs were experimentally challenged with JEV. All JEV-infected dogs did not show any clinical signs or abnormal blood tests, except ...
متن کاملHost defence mechanisms against Japanese encephalitis virus infection in mice.
The role of antibody and cell-mediated immunity in the resistance to Japanese encephalitis virus (JEV) infection was studied in adult mice. Passively transferred antibodies obtained up to 2 weeks after primary infection protected the recipient mice against a challenge infection with JEV. Antibody obtained at 4 or 5 weeks failed to protect despite the presence of high titres of neutralizing anti...
متن کاملSerosurveillance for Japanese encephalitis virus infection among equines in India
The seroprevalence of Japanese encephalitis virus (JEV) among equines was evaluated from January 2006 to December 2009 in 13 different states of India by hemagglutination inhibition (HI) test and virus neutralization test (VNT). Antibodies against JEV were detected in 327 out of 3,286 (10%) equines with a maximum prevalence reported in the state of Manipur (91.7%) followed by Gujarat (18.5%), M...
متن کاملCongenital infection of mice with Japanese encephalitis virus.
Transplacental transmission of Japanese encephalitis virus (JEV) when given intraperitoneally was demonstrated in pregnant mice as shown by isolation of the virus from placenta and fetal tissues. Furthermore, JEV could be isolated from the brain, liver, and spleen of newborn mice. The effect of JEV at different periods of gestation in pregnant mice was demonstrated for the first time, and the c...
