ABSTRACT
Primary cultures of rat and mouse sensory neurons were used
to study the entry of herpes simplex virus type 1 (HSV-1). Soluble,
truncated nectin-1 but not HveA prevented viral entry. Antibodies
against nectin-1 also blocked infection of rat neurons. These
results indicate that nectin-1 is the primary receptor for HSV-1
infection of sensory neurons.

TEXT
Herpes simplex virus type 1 (HSV-1) has a broad host range,
and recent studies have identified a number of cell surface
proteins that serve as receptors for viral entry (reviewed in
reference
18). It appears that the abundance of the different
receptors varies with the cell type, and this variation might
influence the course of HSV-1 infection (
4). The envelope of
HSV-1 contains several glycoproteins, and studies with mutant
virus have shown that the glycoproteins gB, gD, and gH are required
for infection of rat neurons (
1). An essential event in virus
cell interaction is the binding of viral glycoprotein D (gD)
to a cellular receptor. Glycoprotein D interacts with at least
three structurally unrelated receptors: HveA (
12,
13,
21), nectin-1
(
4,
7), and 3-
O-sulfated heparan sulfate (
16). HveA, also known
as HVEM, is a member of the tumor necrosis factor receptor superfamily.
HveA mRNA is expressed in lymphoid cells and fibroblasts but
only weakly in human brain tissue (
8,
12). Nectin-1, also called
HveC, is a member of the immunoglobulin superfamily. Nectin-1
is found at cellular junctions and is involved in cell-cell
adhesion (
14,
19) and in synapse formation (
11). High levels
of nectin-1 mRNA are expressed in the human central nervous
system (
2), in neuronal cell lines (
4), and in mouse sensory,
sympathetic, and parasympathetic neurons (
5). Nectin-1 protein
is found in abundance in rat sensory neurons but not in rat
motor neurons (
9). Wilcox and Johnson developed a model of HSV-1
latency in primary sensory neurons (
22,
23). This model reproduces
many of the characteristic features of a natural human HSV-1
latent infection, including restricted viral gene expression
(
3) and reactivation, to produce infectious virus (
17,
23).
Using this model and functional assays to measure virus entry,
evidence was obtained that HSV-1 entry into rodent sensory neurons
is mediated by nectin-1.
Effects of soluble HveA or nectin-1 receptors on HSV-1 entry.
Neuronal cultures were prepared from dorsal root ganglia of embryonic day 15 rats or mice as previously described (22, 23). Dulbecco's Eagle's medium-F12 (supplemented with 10% newborn bovine serum, 100 ng of 2.5-S mouse nerve growth factor/ml, and 20 µM 5-fluoro-2'-deoxyuridine to inhibit growth of nonneuronal cells) was used to establish neuronal cultures (neuronal maintenance medium). Rats and mice were treated according to institutional guidelines for animal use. Primary rat fibroblasts and HeLa cells were cultured in Dulbecco's Eagle's medium with 5% fetal bovine serum. For infection, a recombinant HSV-1 (17+ strain) expressing green fluorescent protein (GFP) fused to the C terminus of the immediate-early gene product ICP4 was used. This virus (HSVEGFP4) behaves essentially like wild-type strain 17+ virus (unpublished data). The 17+ virus strain can enter cells via HveA or nectin-1 (10, 12).
The blocking of HSV-1 entry into neurons or fibroblasts was assayed by incubating HSVEGFP4 with soluble HveA or nectin-1 before adding the virus to cells and quantifying the numbers of fluorescent cells present after incubation. Rat or mouse sensory neurons were plated in 24-well plates at approximately 5 x 103 cells per well. Soluble, truncated forms of HveA [HveA(200t)] or nectin-1 [HveC(346t)] were preincubated with the virus for 2 h at 4°C. A virus multiplicity of infection (MOI) of 100 PFU per neuron was used for each culture, and the soluble receptor concentration in the preincubation was 3.0 pg/PFU for nectin-1 and 0.7 pg/PFU for HveA. After preincubation, the virus and soluble receptor were added to neurons and the virus was allowed to adsorb for 1 h at 35°C. The inoculum was then removed and replaced with maintenance medium supplemented with 100 µM acyclovir to limit the infection. At 24 h after infection, neurons were identified by their morphology and GFP-positive neurons were visualized by epifluorescence. Each treatment group contained four cultures, and the fluorescent cells in four or five fields for each culture were counted. Data are expressed as the mean percentage of GFP-positive neurons per culture. Experiments using fibroblasts were performed as described above for neuronal cultures, except that fibroblasts were plated at 2 x 104 cells per well, an MOI of 10 PFU/cell was used, and at 8 h postinfection, cells were fixed in 4% paraformaldehyde prior to analysis of GFP expression.
Previous studies have demonstrated that soluble forms of HveA and nectin-1 can block HSV-1 entry into cell lines (6, 12). Using similar experimental conditions, we tested the ability of these soluble receptors to inhibit HSV-1 infections of primary sensory neurons and fibroblasts. The effects of nectin-1 and HveA on rat neurons are shown in Fig. 1. Quantitative data for rat and mouse neurons and fibroblasts are shown in Fig. 2A. Rat neurons infected with HSV-1 alone resulted in 61% GFP-positive cells. Incubation of virus with HveA resulted in 71% GFP-positive cells, a value slightly higher than that for the control infection. The addition of nectin-1 to virus reduced the proportion of GFP-positive cells to 17% of that of the controls. Similar results were obtained with primary rat fibroblasts and mouse neuron cultures. A second recombinant virus that expresses GFP fused to ICP27 gave similar results (data not shown). To test the possibility that the amount of HveA or nectin-1 used in the previous experiments was not optimal, the virus was treated with additional concentrations of soluble receptors. Recombinant nectin-1 showed a dose-dependent decrease in HSV-1 entry into rat neurons, while incubations with a range of HveA concentrations did not inhibit viral entry (Fig. 2B).
Effects of antibodies against HveA or nectin-1 on HSV-1 entry.
Blocking of infection by antibodies against soluble receptors
was assayed using the experimental procedure described above,
except that cell cultures were treated with antiserum for 1
h at 35°C prior to adding virus. Antisera were raised in
rabbits against nectin-1 (R166) or HveA (R140) (
20). A monoclonal
antibody against nectin-1 (CK41) was also tested (
6). Cells
were incubated in medium containing 10% preimmune serum, 10%
anti-HveA, 10% anti-nectin-1, or 1% monoclonal antibody CK41.
The virus was added to serum-treated cells for 1 h to allow
adsorption, and then the inoculum was replaced with medium supplemented
with 100 µM acyclovir. Following incubation for 24 h at
35°C (neuronal cultures) or 8 h at 37°C (fibroblasts),
the cultures were examined by fluorescent microscopy for expression
of GFP.
The results of the polyclonal antibody blocking experiments are shown in Fig. 3A. Anti-nectin-1 antiserum (R166) reduced the number of GFP-positive rat sensory neurons by more than 90%, while anti-HveA antiserum (R140) did not block infection. The ability of R166 anti-nectin-1 antiserum to interfere with HSV-1 entry was restricted to rat sensory neurons. Treatment with anti-nectin-1 antiserum did not affect HSV-1 entry into primary rat fibroblasts or mouse sensory neurons. That R166 anti-nectin-1 serum failed to block entry into mouse sensory neurons was unexpected, since R166 reacts with mouse nectin-1 by immunohistochemistry and flow cytometry (15). Monoclonal CK41 antibody against human nectin-1 blocks entry of HSV-1 into several types of cells (6). This antibody reduced virus entry into rat sensory neurons by 60% compared to virus entry into untreated neurons, but as was found with nectin-1 polyclonal antiserum, the CK41 monoclonal antibody did not block virus entry into mouse sensory neurons (Fig. 3B). Treatment of virus with anti-gD serum completely blocked infection (data not shown).
Western blot analyses of HveA and nectin-1 on primary sensory neurons and fibroblasts.
The inability of soluble HveA and HveA antiserum to reduce HSV-1
entry into neurons might be attributable to the absence of HveA
from these cells or the presence of this receptor in an inactive
form. To distinguish between these possibilities, Western blot
analysis was carried out on protein from primary rat neuronal
cultures, rat fibroblasts, and (as a control) HeLa cells. Cells
were harvested in radioimmunoprecipitation assay buffer containing
protease inhibitors, and proteins were resolved on sodium dodecyl
sulfate-10% polyacrylamide gels and transferred to nitrocellulose
for immunodetection. A chemiluminescent substrate for peroxidase
(NEN Life Science, Boston, Mass.) was used to visualize protein
bands. HveA was detected in primary rat fibroblasts and HeLa
cells at the predicted molecular mass of about 35 kDa (Fig.
4A). A faint band was detected in the rat neuronal cultures.
Nectin-1 was detected in HeLa cells and primary rat fibroblasts
at approximately 63 kDa (Fig.
4B). In rat sensory neuronal cultures,
an intense band was detected with anti-nectin-1 antibody. This
band was smaller than that observed with HeLa and fibroblast
cell extract and might represent the product of an alternatively
spliced nectin-1 transcript (
2). These results demonstrate that
nectin-1 was abundant in rat neurons but HveA was present at
low levels.
During infection of its natural host, HSV-1 encounters different
types of cells. Viral entry into these cells is critical for
replication of the virus in cells of the epithelium and for
progression from the initial sites of infection to neurons and
cells of the immune system. The viral receptors on these cells
greatly influence which cells are productively infected, which
cells establish latent infections, and the nature of the immune
response. Therefore, to study the pathogenesis of HSV-1 infections,
it is important to identify the viral receptors that function
on target cells. The experiments described in this report addressed
the nature of cellular receptors on sensory neurons, the cells
involved in HSV-1 latency. The results show that nectin-1 is
the primary, if not only, functional receptor on rodent sensory
neurons in cultures. Consistent with functional assays, analysis
of Western blots showed abundant nectin-1 on rat neurons but
low levels of HveA. Fibroblasts expressed both HveA and nectin-1.
While the data with rat neurons were consistent, two points
arose with mouse neurons and rat fibroblasts. Anti-nectin-1
polyclonal and monoclonal antibodies failed to inhibit viral
entry into mouse neurons. One possible explanation for this
result is that the antibodies used were raised against human
nectin-1 and have low affinity for the mouse homologue. The
second point is that while the Western analyses of rat fibroblast
extracts showed the presence of both HveA and nectin-1, soluble
nectin-1 but not HveA inhibited infection. These data suggest
that when HveA and nectin-1 are both on a cell, they are not
equivalent in facilitating viral entry. The binding of soluble
nectin-1 to gD in the virus restricted gD binding to cellular
HveA. In contrast, soluble HveA-gD interactions did not interfere
with cellular nectin-1 binding to the virus. The studies described
in this report were carried out with cell-free HSV-1, and it
should be informative to use infected cells to test whether
soluble receptors and anti-receptor antibodies can disrupt the
spread of virus from one cell type to another.
