- W4382362384 abstract "ABSTRACT The Arenaviridae family within the Bunyavirales order of segmented RNA viruses contains over 50 species grouped into four genera, Antennavirus , Hartmanivirus , Mammarenavirus and Reptarenavirus . Several mammarenaviruses are associated with fatal hemorrhagic fevers, including Lassa, Lujo and Junin viruses. The mammarenavirus member lymphocytic choriomeningitis virus (LCMV) is largely non-pathogenic to humans and represents a tractable model system for studying arenavirus molecular and cellular biology. During infection of cells in culture, a high proportion of LCMV spread is between directly neighbouring cells. Consistent with this observation LCMV-infected cells extrude multiple tunnelling nanotube (TNT)-like structures forming intercellular connections that could provide a route of cell-to-cell spread. To investigate this, we used recombinant LCMV with engineered epitope tags in glycoprotein spike (GP-1) and matrix (Z) proteins, alongside nucleoprotein (NP) antisera, to reveal that all three major structural proteins co-localised within TNT-like connections. Furthermore, utilising fluorescent in situ hybridisation (FISH) we showed NP also co-localised with LCMV genomic sense RNA. Taken together, these observations suggested LCMV virions pass between cells through intercellular connections to infect new cells. Consistent with this, addition of a potent LCMV neutralising antibody to supernatants during infection failed to block LCMV spread through cultures, revealing that cell-to-cell connectivity plays a major role in LCMV transmission. This is the first report of cell-cell infection via TNT-like connections for any species of the 14 families within the Bunyavirales order. This study furthers our understanding of how arenaviruses manipulate the host to establish infection, which may aid in the development of effective anti-viral therapeutics. IMPORTANCE Arenaviruses include some of the most serious human pathogens in existence, although no clinically approved vaccines or therapies are currently available to prevent their associated disease. As with most pathogens, transmission of arenaviruses from one cell to another is a critical aspect of infection and resulting pathogenicity. Here, we showed that model arenavirus lymphocytic choriomeningitis virus (LCMV) can spread between cells without exposure to the extracellular space. We visualized the three major LCMV structural proteins, namely nucleoprotein, glycoprotein spike and matrix co-localized along with genomic RNA within tubular structures connecting adjacent cells. The use of a potent neutralizing antibody to block the extracellular route of LCMV transmission reduced spread within cultured cells to approximately half that of untreated cultures. Taken together, these results suggest intercellular connections represent important conduits for arenavirus spread. This information will aid in the development of antiviral strategies that prevent both intra- and extracellular transmission routes." @default.
