چکیده

To investigate the effect of persistent measles virus infection on signal transduction in cells of neuronal origin, the mouse neuroblastoma cell line NS20Y/MS, which is persistently infected with measles virus, was used. The results demonstrate an approximate 50% increase in total phosphorylation and a similar increase in protein kinase C (PKC) activity. Western blot analysis with anti-total PKC or anti-PKC-alpha antibodies revealed a significant increase in the level of an 80K immunoreactive PKC in NS20Y/MS cells. Following incubation of NS20Y/MS cells with polyclonal anti-measles virus antibodies, which down-regulate the level of measles virus proteins, total and PKC-mediated phosphorylation returned to the basal level of uninfected cells. This effect was reversible and removal of the antibodies resulted in restoration of the high level of total and PKC-mediated phosphorylation. The release of infectious measles virus was strongly inhibited by incubation of NS20Y/MS cells with the PKC inhibitor, 1-(5-isoquinolinylsulphonyl)-2-methylpiperazine (H-7). These results demonstrate that measles virus induces elevation in cellular phosphorylation which is essential for measles virus production.

Subacute sclerosing panencephalitis is a slowly progressing fatal human disease of the central nervous system which is a delayed sequel of measles virus (MV) infection. A typical pathological feature of this disease is the presence of viral ribonucleocapsid structures in the form of inclusion bodies and the absence of infectious virus or budding viral particles. The mechanisms governing the est...

Application of neutralizing anti-hemagglutinin antibodies to mouse neuroblastoma cells (NS20Y/MS) persistently infected with measles virus (MV) leads to a significant reduction of viral structural proteins within 6 days. While the transcriptional gradient for MV-specific mRNAs remained unaffected upon antibody treatment, the total amount of MV-specific transcripts dropped by 80% after 24 h. The...

Clone NS20Y of the mouse neuroblastoma C1300 was infected with wild-type Edmonston measles virus, and, after a transition to a carrier culture, became persistently infected. Persistently infected clones were derived and characterized morphologically by the appearance of multinucleate giant cells and nucleocapsid matrices in cytoplasm and nucleus, but very few budding virus particles. Antimeasle...
