Pathogenesis of Infectious Disease of Mice Caused by H5N1 Avian Influenza Virus

Abstract: The pathogenesis of a disease caused by Qinghai-like H5N1 influenza virus in BALB/c mice was studied. Clinical, morphological, and immunological characteristics of the experimental infection caused by highly pathogenic A/duck/Tuva/01/06/ (H5N1) virus are described.

“…Neuromorphogenesis of viral infection was studied in series II on A/goose/Krasnoozerskoye/627/05 strain, characterized by the highest neurotropism, high pathogenic activity, and causing generalized infection with mortality reaching 85% in experimental animals [1][2][3].…”

“…These changes are probably associated with dysregulation in production of proinflammatory and antiinflammatory cytokines by the mononuclear phagocyte system and natural killer cells. Previous studies showed that the concentration of proinflammatory cytokines interleukin-6 (IL-6) and TNF-α increases, while the content of IFN-γ decreases in mammalian blood plasma during the early period after infection [2]. Cytokine-inactivated sinusoidal cells synthesize eicosanoids (thromboxanes, prostacyclins, etc.…”

“…These changes are probably associated with increased secretion of proinflammatory cytokines IL-10 and IL-2 [2] and alternative activation of macrophages, which results in the decrease in cytotoxic properties, high-intensity endocytosis of cell destruction products [3], and simultaneous elevation of reparative activity of hepatocytes. …”

“…Because these cells are reported to play essential roles in the control of influenza virus [14], IFN-γ is also thought to be associated with the pathogenesis of influenza [3,10]. For example, H5N1 HPAIV was found to induce IFN-γ in mammals [4], and early administration of exogenous IFN-γ during influenza virus infection stimulates NK cell proliferation and function in infected lungs [24]. An HPAIV A/ Vietnam/1203/2003 (H5N1) was also found to induce IFN-γ in the lung and spleen of chickens [11].…”
