چکیده

The suggestion that antibodies might enhance rabies virus infection of macrophages through opsonization of immune complexes was tested in vitro by adaptation of the rapid fluorescent focus inhibition technique for the examination of a macrophage cell line (P388D1). Some enhancement of rabies virus infection was shown. The relationship between such enhancement with the 'early death' phenomenon and its occurrence in vivo is discussed.

Effect of neutralizing monoclonal antibodies on Hantaan virus infection of the macrophage P388D1 cell line.

The effect of neutralizing monoclonal antibodies (N MAbs) on Hantaan virus infection of macrophages was investigated using P388D1 cells, a murine macrophage cell line. MAbs to the G1 protein (G1b) and the G2 protein (G2a and G2c) neutralized viral infectivity in P388D1 cells. N MAbs to G1b showed much higher neutralizing potency than those to G2a and G2c. With each N MAbs, two distinct effects ...

A Study on the Ocular Infection with Rabies Virus in Mouse

Introduction: The most common mode of rabies virus transmission is through a bite wound or contact of broken skin with saliva of a rabid animal. Various other routes of virus transmission include exposure of mucous membranes (i.e. eyes, nose, and mouth) to infected saliva of a rabid animal, aerosol transmission, and corneal transplantation. Laboratory workers during work with rabies virus and v...

Pseudomonas aeruginosa cytotoxin: periplasmic localization and inhibition of macrophages.

Pseudomonas aeruginosa cytotoxin has been isolated previously from cell autolysates. Both purified cytotoxin and periplasmic contents (osmotic shock fluid) cross-reacted on Western immunoblots with antibodies specific for cytotoxin. In addition, both preparations caused a significant reduction in antibody-mediated phagocytosis of P. aeruginosa M2 by mouse macrophage cell line P388D1. Phagocytos...

How antibodies alter the cell entry pathway of dengue virus particles in macrophages

Antibody-dependent enhancement of dengue virus (DENV) infection plays an important role in the exacerbation of DENV-induced disease. To understand how antibodies influence the fate of DENV particles, we explored the cell entry pathway of DENV in the absence and presence of antibodies in macrophage-like P388D1 cells. Recent studies unraveled that both mature and immature DENV particles contribut...

Mechanisms of nonopsonic phagocytosis of Pseudomonas aeruginosa.

The interaction of the macrophage cell line P388D1 with Pseudomonas aeruginosa in the absence of stimulators or opsonins led to substantial association of bacteria, as judged by visual counting and FACScan assays. This association was observable within 5 min of addition of bacteria, could not be disturbed by exhaustive washing, and occurred with pilus- or flagellum-deficient mutants but not wit...
