Pathogenesis of Herpes Simplex Virus Type 1-Induced Corneal Inflammation in Perforin-Deficient Mice

Abstract: Herpetic stromal keratitis (HSK) is an inflammatory disease of the cornea that often results in blindness.It is mediated by a host immune response which is triggered by herpes simplex virus (HSV) infection. Immune effector mechanisms are hypothesized to be important in disease development. We investigated, in a mouse model, whether perforin-dependent cytotoxicity is an important effector mechanism in the production of HSK. Wild-type (C57BL/6) and perforin-deficient (PKO) mice were infected intracorneally with … Show more

“…CD8 ϩ T cells were implicated as potential mediators of acute viral control in the nervous system and of neuropathogenesis (12,13,15,(17)(18)(19)(20)(21) and also as sentinels that potentially control viral reactivation from latency in the TG in situ (22)(23)(24)(25). Such evidence was obtained using infection of animals treated with depleting Abs (13,15,17) or studies in knockout mice lacking CD8␣ (26,27), IFN-␥ (26, 28 -30), or molecules that mediate cytotoxicity (27,(31)(32)(33)(34). Direct proof that the missing effector molecules act via CD8 T cells, however, was often not obtained in these studies, and the results of some studies questioned an obligatory role of CD8 ϩ T cells in fighting HSV (22,35).…”

“…Perforin is a cytolysin expressed on cytotoxic T lymphocytes and natural killer cells. HSV-1 induced corneal in¯ammation and keratitic lesions were less severe in perforin -/-mice indicating a role for perforin in the cytotoxicity of effector cells and subsequent release of cytokines and chemokines that promote in¯ux of in¯ammatory in®ltrates (Chang et al, 2000). Cell adhesion proteins, such as P-selectin and I-CAM, also play a role in the migration and in®ltration of in¯ammatory cells in corneal infections.…”

“…Four mice from each of the eight transgenic lines (two ICP0 lines, three ICP27 lines, and three gC lines) and four nontransgenic control mice were inoculated by the corneal route with 10 7 PFU of HSV-1 strain F per eye (9,38,44). Four mice from each line were mock inoculated by the corneal route of inoculation using medium containing no virus.…”
