RESUMO

Decay-accelerating factor (DAF) is involved in the cell membrane attachment of many human enteroviruses. Presently, further specific active roles of DAF in mediating productive cell infection and in the pathogenesis of natural enterovirus infection are poorly understood. In an attempt to more fully understand the role of DAF in lytic cell infection we examined the specific interactions of the prototype strain of coxsackievirus A21 (CVA21) with surface-expressed DAF. Investigations into discrete DAF-CVA21 interactions focused on viral binding; viral particle elution with respect to the parameters of time, temperature, and pH; and subsequent cell infection. Radiolabeled-virus binding assays revealed that peak elution of CVA21 from DAF occurred within 15 min of initial attachment and that the DAF-eluted virus increased in a linear fashion with respect to temperature and pH. CVA21 eluted from endogenous surface-expressed DAF was highly infectious, in contrast to CVA21 eluted from intercellular adhesion molecule 1 (ICAM-1), which retained little to no infectivity. Using an adenovirus transduction system, we demonstrate that CVA21 can remain infectious for up to 24 h after DAF binding and is capable of initiating a multicycle lytic infection upon delayed ICAM-1 surface expression. Taken together, the data suggest that a major role of DAF in cell infection by the prototype strain of CVA21 is to provide membrane concentration of infectious virions, effectively increasing viral interactions with endogenous or induced ICAM-1.

RESUMO

The cellular receptor usage of numerous human enteroviruses can differ significantly between low-cell-culture-passaged clinical isolates and highly laboratory-passaged prototype strains. The prototype strain of coxsackievirus A21 (CVA21) displays a dual-receptor specificity as determined with a receptor complex consisting of decay-accelerating factor (DAF) and intercellular adhesion molecule 1 (ICAM-1). In this study, the cellular receptor interactions of low-cell-passage CVA21 clinical isolates with respect to their interactions with cell surface-expressed DAF and ICAM-1 were compared to those of the CVA21 prototype (Kuykendall) strain. Dual-receptor usage of DAF and ICAM-1 by CVA21 clinical isolates was confirmed by cell transfection and radiolabeled binding assays. The cellular attachment of clinical and prototype CVA21 strains to cells that coexpressed DAF and ICAM-1 was not additive compared to the viral binding to cells expressing one or other receptor. In fact, the binding data suggest there is an inhibition of CVA21 cellular attachment in environments where high-level coexpression of both DAF and ICAM-1 occurs. Antibody cross-linking of DAF rendered cells susceptible to lytic infection by the CVA21 clinical isolates. In a novel finding, three clinical isolates could, to various degrees, infect and lyse DAF-expressing cells in the absence of DAF-antibody cross-linking and ICAM-1 expression. Sequence analysis of the P1 region of clinical and prototype virus genomes identified a number of coding changes that may contribute to the observed enhanced DAF usage phenotype of the clinical CVA21 isolates. None of the amino acid changes was located in the previously postulated ICAM-1 footprint, a receptor-binding environment that was conserved on the capsid surface of all CVA21 clinical isolates. Taken together, the data suggest that community-circulating strains of CVA21 can infect target cells expressing either ICAM-1 or DAF alone and that such interactions extend tissue tropism and impact directly on viral pathogenesis.

RESUMO

PURPOSE: The incidence of malignant melanoma continues to increase worldwide; however, treatment of metastatic melanoma remains unsatisfactory, and there is an urgent need for development of effective targeted therapeutics. A potential biological target on the surface of malignant melanoma cells is the up-regulated expression of intercellular adhesion molecule (ICAM)-1 and decay-accelerating factor (DAF), relative to surrounding benign tissue. Coxsackievirus A21 (a common cold virus) targets and destroys susceptible cells via specific viral capsid interactions with surface-expressed virus receptors comprising ICAM-1 and DAF. EXPERIMENTAL DESIGN: The oncolytic capacity of a genetically unmodified wild-type common cold-producing human enterovirus (Coxsackievirus A21, CAV21) was assessed against in vitro cultures and in vivo xenografts of malignant human melanoma cells. RESULTS: In vitro studies established that human melanoma cells endogenously express elevated levels of ICAM-1/DAF and were highly susceptible to rapid viral oncolysis by CAV21 infection, whereas ICAM-1/DAF-expressing peripheral blood lymphocytes were refractile to infection. In vivo studies revealed that the tumor burden of nonobese diabetic severe combined immunodeficient mice bearing multiple s.c. melanoma xenografts was rapidly reduced by oncolysis mediated by a single administration of CAV21. The antitumor activity of CAV21 was characterized by highly efficient systemic spread of progeny CAV21, with oncolysis of tumors also occurring at sites distant to the primary site of viral administration. CONCLUSIONS: Overall, the findings presented herein demonstrate an important proof of principle using administration of replication-competent CAV21 as a potential biological oncolytic agent in the control of human metastatic melanoma.

RESUMO

The cellular receptor complex of coxsackievirus A21 (CVA21), a C-cluster human enterovirus, is formed by the subtle interaction of individual cellular receptors, decay accelerating factor (DAF) and intercellular adhesion molecule-1 (ICAM-1). In this receptor complex, DAF functions in the membrane sequestration of the virus, while the role of ICAM-1 is as the functional cellular internalization receptor. However, despite the elucidation of the CVA21-cell receptor interactions, there have been few definite investigations into cellular receptor usage of other coxsackie A viruses (CVAs) belonging to the C-cluster. In the present study, radiolabelled virus-binding assays demonstrated that CVA13, -15, -18 and -20, a subset of the human enterovirus C-cluster, bind directly to surface-expressed ICAM-1, but not to surface-expressed DAF. Furthermore, lytic infection of ICAM-1-expressing rhabdomyosarcoma (RD) cells by this C-cluster subset of viruses was inhibited by specific ICAM-1 monoclonal antibody blockade, except for that of CVA20. Despite possessing ICAM-1-binding capabilities, CVA20 employed an as yet unidentified internalization receptor for cell entry and subsequent productive lytic infection of ICAM-1-negative RD cells. In a further example of C-cluster cellular receptor heterogeneity, CVA13 exhibited significant binding to the surface of CHO cells expressing neither DAF nor ICAM-1. Despite a common receptor usage of ICAM-1 by this subset of C-cluster CVAs, the amino acid residues postulated to represent the ICAM-1-receptor footprint were not conserved.
