Abstract

C. parvum cytokine HSV-1 IL-1β macrophages Salmonella
Activated macrophages (Mφ) from mice given Salmonella typhimurium or Corynebacterium parvum were compared with resident peritoneal macrophages at the molecular level for permissiveness for herpes simplex virus type 1 (HSV-1) replication and for expression of interleukin-1 beta (IL-1β). Peritoneal macrophages were harvested from mice injected 7 days previously with live, avirulent S. typhimurium (Sal-PMφ) or heat-killed C. parvum (CP-PMφ), and infected with HSV-1 in vitro. Both Sal-PMφ and CP-PMφ were activated as evidenced by characteristic changes in an ectoenzyme, by increased permissiveness for infectious virus production and viral cytopathic effect, and by induction of IL-1β mRNA. Analysis at the molecular level revealed that both types of activated Mφ demonstrated increased patterns of HSV-1 immediate-early gene expression and viral DNA replication as compared with resident cells. A novel finding was that viral infection reduced IL-1β mRNA in both types of activated Mβ. This observation has implications for the efficacy of Salmonella vaccines given in proximity to HSV-1 infection and for potential deleterious effects of HSV-1 infection in immunosuppressed patients receiving immunotherapy.
