Alpha/Beta and Gamma Interferons Are Induced by Infection with Noncytopathic Bovine Viral Diarrhea Virus In Vivo

Abstract: In contrast to the results of previous in vitro studies, experimental infection of calves with noncytopathic bovine viral diarrhea virus (ncpBVDV) was found to induce strong alpha/beta and gamma interferon responses in gnotobiotic animals. These responses were associated with depressed levels of transforming growth factor ␤ (TGF-␤) in serum. The results of this study indicate that the immunosuppression caused by ncpBVDV is not associated with low interferon responses or elevated levels of TGF-␤.

“…The levels of IFN found in pig plasma from CSFVinfected animals are significantly higher than those seen in serum from BVDV-infected cattle (17,43). Acid treatment of the porcine plasma samples confirmed the presence of acid labile IFN, which comprised up to 70% of the total IFN produced (Fig.…”

“…Despite the ability of pestiviruses to block type I IFN in the majority of host target cells, IFN can be detected in serum samples from cattle early postinfection with ncp BVDV and following CSFV infection of pigs. Elevated serum levels of type I IFN were observed for ∼6 d by Charleston et al (17) following infection of postnatal cattle with ncp BVDV.…”

“…Transient lymphopenia and immunosuppression characterized by loss of T-cell responses is also evident in animals infected with BVDV (Charleston et al, , 2002, but whether the mechanism of this is similar to that seen with other viruses is not known. DCs transport measles virus to the lymph node and measles virus infection of DCs in vivo results in a reduced ability to stimulate allogeneic T cells, partly due to a CD40L signalling defect and reduced IL-12 synthesis and possibly also due to the effect of viral protein expressed on the surface of DCs giving a negative signal to the T cell.…”

“…Infection of post-natal cattle with a non cytopathic strain of bovine viral diarrhea virus (ncpBVDV) resulted in elevated circulating IFN-α/β [15]. Although the bovine IFN-producing cells share some features with porcine NIPC (they are found in lymph node draining the site of infection and they are distinct from BVDV infected cells), their phenotype does not match the one expected for typical plasmacytoid DC [12].…”
