Abstract
T cells with T cell receptor (TCR) transgenes that recognized CD1 on syngeneic B cells stimulated B cells to secrete immunoglobulins in vitro. The CD4+, CD8+, or CD4−CD8− T cells from the spleen of the TCR transgenic BALB/c donors induced lupus with anti–double stranded DNA antibodies, proteinuria, and immune complex glomerulonephritis in irradiated BALB/c nude mice reconstituted with nude bone marrow. Injection of purified CD4−CD8− T cells from the marrow of transgenic donors prevented the induction of lupus by the transgenic T cells. Transgenic T cells that induced lupus secreted large amounts of interferon (IFN)-γ and little interleukin (IL)-4, and those that prevented lupus secreted large amounts of IL-4 and little IFN-γ or IL-10.
Murine lupus is an autoimmune disease with a variety of antiprotein and nonprotein autoantibodies that cause injury to several organ systems including the kidney (1–3). Cationic anti–double-stranded (ds)1 DNA antibodies are pathogenic and contribute to immune complex glomerulonephritis (4, 5). T cells play an important role in augmenting the secretion of anti–ds DNA antibodies in lupus (6, 7). It is not clear how conventional T cells that recognize peptides associated with class I and II MHC molecules provide help for B cells that secrete antibodies to nonprotein antigens. Hypothesized mechanisms of T cell help include T cell recognition of DNA-associated protein antigens, such as histones (8, 9), and recognition of peptide fragments of anti-DNA antibodies (10, 11).
Since some subsets of T cells (i.e., NK1.1+ T cells) have been reported to recognize the nonpolymorphic, class I MHC-like molecule CD1 (12, 13), and other T cells can recognize sugar and/or lipid antigens in the context of CD1 (14, 15), these anti-CD1 T cells may provide an alternative mechanism of activation and help for the secretion of antibodies to nonprotein antigens. In the current study, transgenic CD4+ and CD8+ cells that recognize CD1 on syngeneic B cells and activate them to secrete immunoglobulins were tested for their capacity to induce lupus in irradiated syngeneic (BALB/c) nude hosts. These T cells were obtained from the spleen of a line of transgenic BALB/c mice that expressed the TCR-α and -β chain genes from an anti-CD1 BALB/c T cell clone (16). The transgenic CD4+ and CD8+ T cells induced lupus in the irradiated hosts, and the majority developed severe immune complex glomerulonephritis and anti–ds DNA antibodies. On the other hand, CD4−CD8− T cells from the bone marrow (BM) of transgenic mice expressing the same TCR-α and -β chain genes prevented lupus when coinjected with inducing T cells. The latter T cells secreted large amounts of IFN-γ and little IL-4, whereas the preventive T cells secreted large amounts of IL-4 and little IFN-γ.

Abstract
T cells are known to contribute to immune protection against scrub typhus, a potentially fatal infection caused by the obligate intracellular bacterium Orientia (O.) tsutsugamushi. However, the contribution of CD8+ T cells to protection and pathogenesis during O. tsutsugamushi infection is still unknown. Using our recently developed BALB/c mouse model that is based on footpad inoculation of the human-pathogenic Karp strain, we show that activated CD8+ T cells infiltrate spleen and lung during the third week of infection. Depletion of CD8+ T cells with monoclonal antibodies resulted in uncontrolled pathogen growth and mortality. Adoptive transfer of CD8+ T cells from infected animals protected naïve BALB/c mice from lethal outcome of intraperitoneal challenge. In C57Bl/6 mice, the pulmonary lymphocyte compartment showed an increased percentage of CD8+ T cells for at least 135 days post O. tsutsugamushi infection. Depletion of CD8+ T cells at 84 days post infection caused reactivation of bacterial growth. In CD8+ T cell-deficient beta 2-microglobulin knockout mice, bacterial replication was uncontrolled, and all mice succumbed to the infection, despite higher serum IFN-γ levels and stronger macrophage responses in liver and lung. Moreover, we show that CD8+ T cells but not NKT cells were required for hepatocyte injury: elevated concentrations of serum alanine aminotransferase and infection-induced subcapsular necrotic liver lesions surrounded by macrophages were found in C57Bl/6 and CD1d-deficient mice, but not in beta 2-microglobulin knockout mice. In the lungs, peribronchial macrophage infiltrations also depended on CD8+ T cells. In summary, our results demonstrate that CD8+ T cells restrict growth of O. tsutsugamushi during acute and persistent infection, and are required to protect from lethal infections in BALB/c and C57BL/6 mice. However, they also elicit specific pathologic tissue lesions in liver and lung.

Abstract
Leishmaniasis is an important disease that affects 12 million people in 88 countries, with 2 million new cases every year. Leishmania amazonensis is an important agent in Brazil, leading to clinical forms varying from localized (LCL) to diffuse cutaneous leishmaniasis (DCL). One interesting issue rarely analyzed is how host immune response affects Leishmania phenotype and virulence. Aiming to study the effect of host immune system on Leishmania proteins we compared proteomes of amastigotes isolated from BALB/c and BALB/c nude mice. The athymic nude mice may resemble patients with diffuse cutaneous leishmaniasis, considered T-cell hyposensitive or anergic to Leishmania´s antigens. This work is the first to compare modifications in amastigotes’ proteomes driven by host immune response. Among the 44 differentially expressed spots, there were proteins related to oxidative/nitrosative stress and proteases. Some correspond to known Leishmania virulence factors such as OPB and tryparedoxin peroxidase. Specific isoforms of these two proteins were increased in parasites from nude mice, suggesting that T cells probably restrain their posttranslational modifications in BALB/c mice. On the other hand, an isoform of HSP70 was increased in amastigotes from BALB/c mice. We believe our study may allow identification of potential virulence factors and ways of regulating their expression.

Abstract
Epidermolysis bullosa acquisita (EBA) is a subepidermal blistering disorder associated with tissue-bound and circulating autoantibodies specific to type VII collagen, a major constituent of the dermal-epidermal junction. Previous attempts to transfer the disease by injection of patient autoantibodies into mice have been unsuccessful. To study the pathogenic relevance of antibodies specific to type VII collagen in vivo, we generated and characterized rabbit antibodies specific to a murine form of this antigen and passively transferred them into adult nude, BALB/c, and C57BL/6 mice. Immune rabbit IgG bound to the lamina densa of murine skin and immunoblotted type VII collagen. Mice injected with purified IgG specific to type VII collagen, in contrast to control mice, developed subepidermal skin blisters, reproducing the human disease at the clinical, histological, electron microscopical, and immunopathological levels. Titers of rabbit IgG in the serum of mice correlated with the extent of the disease. F(ab′)2 fragments of rabbit IgG specific to type VII collagen were not pathogenic. When injected into C5-deficient mice, antibodies specific to type VII collagen failed to induce the disease, whereas C5-sufficient mice were susceptible to blister induction. This animal model for EBA should facilitate further dissection of the pathogenesis of this disease and development of new therapeutic strategies.

ABSTRACT
We report the analysis of polyomavirus (Py) DNA integration into chromosomal DNA of two Py-induced mammary adenocarcinomas of athymic nude mice. Prior observations had established that these tumors had high levels of episomal Py DNA, making analysis of integration sites difficult. Propagation of tumor cells in culture allows the isolation of lines which have lost episomal Py DNA but are still tumorigenic and thus can be used for in situ and Southern analysis of Py sequences. The data reported here support the conclusion that Py DNA integrated into and next to the c-myc gene, adding further importance to this tumor system which, in its modifications of c-myc expression, appears to be similar to some human mammary cancers. In situ hybridization experiments on metaphase chromosomes of tumor cells showed that (i) in both cases, there was a single integration site at the same position on the same chromosome in all cells of a given tumor, and (ii) integration sites were different in the two tumors; in one, it was located on chromosome 15, near the c-myc proto-oncogene, and in the other, it was situated in the distal part of chromosome 1. We have demonstrated a probable rearrangement between chromosome 1 and chromosome 15, in the region of Py insertion, thus suggesting that a specific site on chromosome 15 is involved in tumorigenesis. The discovery that Py DNA was integrated at specific sites in host chromosomes raised the questions of whether such integrations were correlated with the activation of specific oncogenes. The rearrangements of the c-myc proto-oncogene observed on Southern blot analysis for both tumors, along with similar integration patterns of Py sequences, the overexpression of the c-myc gene, and the synthesis of abnormal oversized hybrid transcripts between c-myc and Py genes, favor this hypothesis. Finally, the analysis of episomal Py DNA in various tumors shows viral populations presenting a specific deletion in a part of the Py late region. This deleted region in the episomal virus genome was systematically found integrated in chromosomal DNA, thus arguing for the importance of Py integration in the induction of mammary tumor.

Abstract
Diabetes is induced in mice by using streptozotocin (STZ), a compound that has a preferential toxicity toward pancreatic β cells. We evaluated nude male mice from various sources for their sensitivity to a single high dose (160 to 240 mg/kg) of STZ. Diabetes was induced in male mice (age: median, 12 wk; interquartile range, 11 to 14 wk; body weight, about 30 g) from Taconic Farms (TAC), Jackson Laboratories (JAX), and Charles River Laboratories (CRL). Mice were monitored for 30 d for adverse side effects, blood glucose, and insulin requirements. In CRL mice given 240 mg/kg STZ, more than 95% developed diabetes within 4 to 5 d, and loss of body weight was relatively low (mean, 0.4 g). In comparison, both TAC and JAX mice were more sensitive to STZ, as evidenced by faster development of diabetes (even at a lower STZ dose), greater need for insulin after STZ, greater body weight loss (mean: TAC, 3.5 g; JAX, 3.7 g), and greater mortality. We recommend conducting exploratory safety assessments when selecting a nude mouse source, with the aim of limiting morbidity and mortality to less than 10%.

Abstract
The human hepatoma cell line, PLC/PRF/5, which is persistently infected with hepatitis B virus (HBV), has integrated HBV-DNA, secretes HBV surface antigen (HBsAg), and does not grow readily in congenitally athymic (nu/nu) mice. The present investigation was undertaken to ascertain whether the low tumorigenicity of this cell line was governed by a host immune response and/or was related to expression of HBsAg. Subcutaneous injection of 4-5 X 106 cells into BALB/c nude mice produced localized encapsulated tumors with morphologic features of primary hepatocellular carcinoma in 25% of the animals within 29-40 d. No tumor growth was observed at lower cell inocula. In contrast, SK-HEP-1, an HBV-negative human hepatoma cell line, produced tumors at 1-5 X 106 cells inocula in 66% of the animals. Immunosuppression of mice with antilymphocyte serum (ALS) or irradiation increased tumor incidence in mice inoculated with 1 X 106 PLC/PRF/5 cells to almost 100% and produced local invasiveness. Immunosuppression also reduced the latency, i.e., time to tumor appearance, and increased mean tumor weight. These results suggest that tumorigenicity was limited by the host immune response.
The nature of the response was delineated by treating nude mice challenged with tumor cells with sheep anti-mouse interferon globulin (anti-IFN). When 2 X 106 cells were injected, tumor growth occurred in 75% of anti-IFN-treated mice, whereas controls injected with the same number of cells, but not receiving anti-IFN, failed to develop tumors. The tumors in the anti-IFN-treated mice were highly invasive and the latency period until tumor appearance was reduced to 3-5 d. An inverse correlation was found between susceptibility of the hepatoma cells to natural killer (NK) activity in vitro and resistance to tumor growth in vivo. In vitro cytotoxicity for PLC/PRF/5 cells was eliminated by anti-NK 1.1 and complement, establishing the effector cell as an NK cell. NK cell activity 14 d after inoculation of mice with PLC/PRF/5 cells was augmented against PLC/PRF/5 target cells but not against SK-HEP-1 cells. Treatment of mice with ALS, irradiation, or anti-IFN abolished NK activity against PLC/PRF/5 cells. Co-cultivation of nude mouse spleen cells with PLC/PRF/5 but not with HBsAg or SK-HEP-1 cells induced secretion of murine IFNα. These results suggest that the IFN/NK cell system may play a role in limiting tumorigenicity and invasiveness of HBV-infected human hepatocellular carcinoma cells by a mechanism similar to that found for other cells persistently infected with viruses.

Abstract
Background/Aim: MK615 extracted from Prunus mume was reported to have anti-inflammatory effects. In this article, we examined the in vivo antitumor effect of MK615 (an extract from Japanese apricot) using mouse tumor xenografts and focusing on the downregulation of PD-L1 (programmed death-ligand 1), a ligand of programmed cell death-1, a surface protein of activated T cells. Materials and Methods: B16/BL6 melanoma cells were injected into C57BL/6 or BALB/c-nu/nu mice to establish lung metastasis. BALB/c-nu/nu mice (nude mice) were used as a T cell–deficient model. The mice were given MK615 or saline orally every other day for approximately 8 weeks, and their survival was observed. NF-κB (nuclear factor-κB) and PD-L1 expressions of metastatic lung tissues were also examined. Results: The survival rate was improved only in the MK615-treated C57BL/6 mice (P < .05), not in the saline-given control mice or BALB/c-nu/nu mice. The downregulations of NF-κB and PD-L1 were observed in both MK615-treated C57BL/6 and BALB/c-nu/nu mice. These results suggest that the antitumor effects of MK615 are associated with T cell–mediated immunity activated by MK-615-induced PD-L1 downregulation in tumor cells. Conclusion: MK615 is beneficial for a prolonged host survival time in the B16/BL6 melanoma xenograft model associated with T cell–mediated antitumor immunity.

Abstract
Transgenic GFP gene mice are widely used. Given the unique advantages of immunodeficient animals in the field of oncology research, we aim to establish a nude mouse inbred strain that stably expresses enhanced GFP (EGFP) for use in transplanted tumor microenvironment (TME) research. Female C57BL/6‐Tg(CAG‐EGFP) mice were backcrossed with male BALB/c nude mice for 11 generations. The genotype and phenotype of novel inbred strain Foxn1nu.B6‐Tg(CAG‐EGFP) were identified by biochemical loci detection, skin transplantation and flow cytometry. PCR and fluorescence spectrophotometry were performed to evaluate the relative expression of EGFP in different parts of the brain. Red fluorescence protein (RFP) gene was stably transfected into human glioma stem cells (GSC), SU3, which were then transplanted intracerebrally or ectopically into Foxn1nu.B6‐Tg(CAG‐EGFP) mice. Cell co–expression of EGFP and RFP in transplanted tissues was further analyzed with the Live Cell Imaging System (Cell’R, Olympus) and FISH. The inbred strain Foxn1nu.B6‐Tg(CAG‐EGFP) shows different levels of EGFP expression in brain tissue. The hematological and immune cells of the inbred strain mice were close to those of nude mice. EGFP was stably expressed in multiple sites of Foxn1nu.B6‐Tg(CAG‐EGFP) mice, including brain tissue. With the dual‐fluorescence tracing transplanted tumor model, we found that SU3 induced host cell malignant transformation in TME, and tumor/host cell fusion. In conclusion, EGFP is differentially and widely expressed in brain tissue of Foxn1nu.B6‐Tg(CAG‐EGFP), which is an ideal model for TME investigation. With Foxn1nu.B6‐Tg(CAG‐EGFP) mice, our research demonstrated that host cell malignant transformation and tumor/host cell fusion play an important role in tumor progression.

ABSTRACT
The pathogenicities of the murine AIDS (MAIDS) virus complex (LP-BM5) and ecotropic helper virus (BM5eco) isolated from the complex to BALB/c nude mice were studied to elucidate the possible role of replication-competent helper virus in inducing the monoclonal outgrowth of lymphoid cells. Neither LP-BM5 nor BM5eco was pathogenic in adult BALB/c nude mice. However, B-cell lymphoma developed with a very high frequency when either virus was inoculated into newborn BALB/c nude (nu/nu) mice. The cells from the B-cell lymphoma were easily transplanted into nude mice. These results suggested that ecotropic helper virus in the MAIDS virus complex plays an important role in inducing the monoclonal outgrowth of lymphoid cells under immunodeficient conditions caused by defective virus.

ABSTRACT
Protection from lethality by postchallenge administration of brincidofovir (BCV, CMX001) was studied in normal and immune-deficient (nude, nu/nu) BALB/c mice infected with vaccinia virus (VACV). Whole-body bioluminescence imaging was used to record total fluxes in the nasal cavity, lungs, spleen, and liver and to enumerate pox lesions on tails of mice infected via the intranasal route with 105 PFU of recombinant IHD-J-Luc VACV expressing luciferase. Areas under the flux curve (AUCs) were calculated for individual mice to assess viral loads. A three-dose regimen of 20 mg/kg BCV administered every 48 h starting either on day 1 or day 2 postchallenge protected 100% of mice. Initiating BCV treatment earlier was more efficient in reducing viral loads and in providing protection from pox lesion development. All BCV-treated mice that survived challenge were also protected from rechallenge with IHD-J-Luc or WRvFire VACV without additional treatment. In immune-deficient mice, BCV protected animals from lethality and reduced viral loads while animals were on the drug. Viral recrudescence occurred within 4 to 9 days, and mice succumbed ∼10 to 20 days after treatment termination. Nude mice reconstituted with 105 T cells prior to challenge with 104 PFU of IHD-J-Luc and treated with BCV postchallenge survived the infection, cleared the virus from all organs, and survived rechallenge with 105 PFU of IHD-J-Luc VACV without additional BCV treatment. Together, these data suggest that BCV protects immunocompetent and partially T cell-reconstituted immune-deficient mice from lethality, reduces viral dissemination in organs, prevents pox lesion development, and permits generation of VACV-specific memory.
IMPORTANCE: Mass vaccination is the primary element of the public health response to a smallpox outbreak. In addition to vaccination, however, antiviral drugs are required for individuals with uncertain exposure status to smallpox or for whom vaccination is contraindicated. Whole-body bioluminescence imaging was used to study the effect of brincidofovir (BCV) in normal and immune-deficient (nu/nu) mice infected with vaccinia virus, a model of smallpox. Postchallenge administration of 20 mg/kg BCV rescued normal and immune-deficient mice partially reconstituted with T cells from lethality and significantly reduced viral loads in organs. All BCV-treated mice that survived infection were protected from rechallenge without additional treatment. In immune-deficient mice, BCV extended survival. The data show that BCV controls viral replication at the site of challenge and reduces viral dissemination to internal organs, thus providing a shield for the developing adaptive immunity that clears the host of virus and builds virus-specific immunological memory.
