Neutrophil interaction with influenza-infected epithelial cells.

چکیده
An in vitro model system was used to study the early neutrophil response to influenza-infected epithelia. In the absence of serum, neutrophil adherence to influenza-infected confluent monolayers of Madin-Darby canine kidney epithelial cells (MDCK) was approximately 590 times greater than neutrophil binding to control cultures. The leukocytes bound specifically to virus-infected cells. Neutrophil adherence to influenza-infected MDCK cells was monitored during the course of one replication cycle, and binding began at a time (4.5 hours) that coincided with viral protein insertion in the apical cell membrane. Ultrastructural examination at 4.5 hours showed that greater than 90% of the neutrophils adhered to the epithelial cell membrane in the absence of budding virus and, at 6.5 hours, 100% of the neutrophils adhered to the epithelium with emerging virions. The number of neutrophils bound to influenza-infected MDCK cells was not affected by the presence or absence of calcium or magnesium but did depend on the amount of viral inoculum and on the temperature of the culture. In direct contrast to hemadsorption of RBCs, neutrophil binding to influenza-infected MDCK cells was 100% greater at 37 degrees C than at 4 degrees C. The neutrophil surface molecules that bound influenza virus appeared to become functionally polarized because the adherence of neutrophils to budding influenza virus or to a virus-coated surface inhibited the neutrophils from binding additional influenza virus to their nonadherent surface.

Neutrophils do not bind to or phagocytize human immune complexes formed with influenza virus.
Neutrophils appear to form the first line of defense against influenza virus, yet it is unclear how these leukocytes recognize influenza-infected cells. While demonstrating that neutrophils adhere specifically to the sialic acid-binding site on the hemagglutinin molecule (HA) on the surface of influenza-infected (WSN[H1N1]) epithelial cells and not to other viral or epithelial cell antigens, it...
متن کاملThe Potential Effect of Glycyrrhiza Glabra on Early Step of Influenza Virus Replication
Background and Aims: The emergence of drug-resistant influenza viruses has become a serious threat for human and animal populations. Glycyrrhiza glabra (Gg) is a traditional medicine clinically used for the treatment of viral respiratory infection symptoms in most countries. We evaluated the effects of the herb on influenza virus replication in human lung cultured cells (A549) following the det...

Sambucus nigra (elder) are broadly used species to treat microbial infections. Thepotential antiviral activity and mechanism action of elder fruit (EF) in human epithelium cell(A549) cultures infected with H9N2 influenza virus were determined. The effect of variousconcentrations of EF on influenza virus replication was examined by using virus titration,quantitative real time RT-PCR, fusion and ...
