Changes in cytokine and chemokine profiles in mouse serum and brain, and in human neural cells, upon tick-borne encephalitis virus infection

Abstract: BackgroundTick-borne encephalitis (TBE) is a severe neuropathological disorder caused by tick-borne encephalitis virus (TBEV). Brain TBEV infection is characterized by extensive pathological neuroinflammation. The mechanism by which TBEV causes CNS destruction remains unclear, but growing evidence suggests that it involves both direct neuronal damage by the virus infection and indirect damage caused by the immune response. Here, we aimed to examine the TBEV-infection-induced innate immune response in mice and … Show more

“…Interaction and treatment effects with multiple comparisons were carried out using two-way analysis of variance ( the identity of cells hosting these regulations. In the literature, the source of production of these molecules is still debated because of the involvement of several cell types including microglia, astrocytes, oligodendroglia, neurons, cerebrovascular cells, and circulating immune cells (Pokorna Formanova et al, 2019;Ramesh, MacLean, & Philipp, 2013).…”

“…This result leads us to question the identity of cells hosting these regulations. In the literature, the source of production of these molecules is still debated because of the involvement of several cell types including microglia, astrocytes, oligodendroglia, neurons, cerebrovascular cells, and circulating immune cells(Pokorna Formanova et al, 2019;Ramesh, MacLean, & Philipp, 2013).The decrease of cytokine gene expression after targeted pharmacogenetic manipulation of GFAP-positive cells makes us assume that astrocytes play an important role in the postprandial upregulation of cytokines expression in the HT. However, due to complex cell interactions in the brain, it is possible that astrocytes are not directly the source of these cytokines.…”

“…IFN-gamma, which we could show is expressed in the infected spinal cord, induces the expression of CXCL10. CXCL10 is also upregulated in other neuroinflammatory infections like Theiler’s murine encephalomyelitis virus, lymphocytic choriomeningitis virus, and tick-borne encephalitis (Hoffman et al 1999 ; Nansen et al 2000 ; Pokorna Formanova et al 2019 ). Most importantly, the enhanced levels of CXCL10 correlate with data from cerebrospinal fluid from humans with HSV-2 meningitis (Lind, Studahl et al 2017 ).…”

“…Therefore, it remains unclear whether detected signal resulted from infection of Iba1-positive cells or from phagocytosis. There is evidence that neurotropic flaviviruses can influence the behavior of microglia and astrocytes and either assist in viral clearance or augment neuropathogenesis by producing toxic neuroinflammatory mediators (17,20,2830). To avoid any permanent damage, inflammation within the CNS is highly regulated and is primarily mediated by microglia and astrocytes.…”
