Enterovirus 71 Infection of Monocytes with Antibody-Dependent Enhancement

Abstract: Enterovirus (EV) is an RNA virus that has circulated with different serotypes and genotypes worldwide. Enterovirus 71 (EV71) is a major neurotropic virus that causes severe brain stem encephalitis (BE) in infants and young children. The most vulnerable age for fatal infection is 6 to 11 months. This is associated with the coincident decline in maternal antibodies. The current report describes our finding that EV71 can infect human peripheral blood monocytes. We were able to show that EV71 infection is enhanced… Show more

“…In these patients, the ADE of CVB3 infection would predominate over CVB3 neutralization [27]. We demonstrated that subneutralizing antibodies of EV71 bind to it and enhance the virus uptake of Fc receptor-bearing monocytes in vitro [28]. We also showed the same phenomenon in a mice model of EV71 infection.…”

“…Previous studies demonstrate that subneutralizing Abs may be correlated with Ab-dependent enhancement in EV71 infection (44)(45)(46). Thus, T cells that are essential in the selection and maturation of high-affinity Abs deserve more attention for immunological investigation, and a comprehensive knowledge of EV71 T cell immunity would benefit our understanding of host protection mechanisms against EV71 (47).…”

“…Antibody-based therapy has been well demonstrated in animal experiments and clinical practice [7][11]. However, a phenomenon termed antibody-dependent enhancement (ADE) was recently confirmed in experimental and clinical settings [12], [13]. Sub-neutralizing concentration of antibodies was evidenced to enhance EV71 infection in Fc receptor-bearing human monocytes and contributed to exacerbation of EV71 infection in mice.…”
