Common Features of Herpesviruses Morphology Basic mode of replication Primary infection followed by latency Ubiquitous Ability to cause recurrent infections (reactivation of latent virus), reinfections (with a new virus), persistent infections (chronic low grade virus multiplication) immortalizing infections (EBV only)

8 Human Herpesviruses, 3 categories Alpha: short reproductive cycle,variable host range, latent in sensory neurons Herpes simplex virus (HSV 1, 2) Varicella-zoster virus (VZV) Beta: long reproductive cycle, narrow host range, latent in lymphoid cells & others (salivary glands, kidney) Cytomegalovirus (CMV) HHV6, HHV 7 Gamma: narrow host range; latent in lymphoid cells, associated with tumors Epstein Barr Virus (EBV) Kaposi Sarcoma Virus (KSH, HHV8)

Human Herpesviruses Replication (lytic infection) occurs in a cascade Latency occurs when the cascade is interrupted Transcription of viral genome and protein synthesis (cascade of gene expression), essential and luxury 1. immediate early (IE): regulation of gene expression, DNA binding 2. early (E): more transcription factors, enzymes, DNA polymerase 3. late (L): structural proteins Encode targets for antiviral therapy Thymidine kinase (TK), DNA polymerase

Human Herpesvirus (VZV) phospholipid envelope, tegument, icosahedral capsid, DNA core

VZV is typical herpesvirus VZV has a phospholipid envelope. Contains gps, eg: gB, gC, gE, gH,gI, gK, gL Tegument Contains immediate early and early proteins, eg: ORFps 4, 10,21, 62, 63 Nucleocapsid ORFp40 DNA core

Varicella-zoster virus The smallest of the herpesviruses 125 base pairs 70 Open reading frames (ORFs) Receptors: heparan sulfate, mannose-6 phosphate receptor

Steps in the assembly and intracellular transport of VZV

VZV receives its final envelope in the TGN Cytosolic nucleocapsids and tegument are wrapped by TGN cisternae. Concave surface = viral envelope. Convex surface = transport vesicle.

VZV Receives Its Final Envelope in the TGN via MPRci

Herpes simplex virus (HSV) Infection (alpha) Cellular receptors for gD are heparan sulfate, HveA-C, Nectin-1, 2 Hves are member of the immunoglobulin protein and TNFfamilies Glycoproteins B, D, H, L promote attachment to cells and viral fusion with cell membrane Viral proteins are released promoting gene transcription, cytotoxicity Lytic infection results in cell death Virions are released or spread from cell to cell Latent infection occurs in sensory neurons Latency associated transcripts (LATS) Minimal transcription of DNA, no translation

HSV Infections Classification: primary, non-primary, first episode, recurrent, reinfection HSV-1: above belt, HSV-2: below belt Reactivation: trauma, sunlight, stress Despite antibodies May be related to deficient gamma IF response May recur in same area of skin (unlike VZV) Many/most infections are asymptomatic asymptomatic shedding can transmit HSV to others Host factors: immunocompromised, newborn baby

Herpes simplex virus (HSV) Infections Mucocutaneous, neonatal, CNS Type 1: gingivostomatitis, whitlow, keratitis, encephalitis, eczema herpeticum Type 2: genital, meningitis, neonatal Main serious clinical problems are in newborn, and immunocompromised hosts Healthy hosts may develop gingivostomatitis, encephalitis,acute and recurrent genital HSV Disease from viral- and immuno-pathology

Primary HSV-1 gingivostomatitis

Herpetic whitlow, HSV 1

HSV causes about 1000 cases of encephalitis annually in USA Most common form of focal encephalitis in USA Primary or recurrent HSV-1 ; skin lesions may be present (not helpful for diagnosis) Symptoms, signs: headache, fever, personality change, focal seizures, abnormal EEG, CT, MR Differential diagnosis: TB meningitis, arbovirus, enterovirus, flavivirus, mycoplasma, tumor, toxoplasmosis, aneurysm Diagnosis: CSF culture is usually negative, but PCR is often positive for HSV Treat (ACV) if suspect disease; prognosis better in children than adults; early therapy is best

Perinatal HSV is usually due to Type 2 virus 95% neonatal, 5% congenital Usually the mother is asymptomatic Attack rate >10 times higher in maternal primary infection than recurrence; attack rate about 50% Clues: skin vesicles in 70%, fever, seizures, pneumonia, DIC, conjunctivitis Diagnosis: immunofluorescence, culture, PCR Treat all infants with this diagnosis, even if all they have are a few skin vesicles but seem otherwise well

Neonatal HSV-1

Neonatal HSV-2

Neonatal HSV Infection, 1600 cases annually Skin, eye, mucous membrane (40%) Skin vesicles Good prognosis with early treatment Untreated 75% develop disseminated infection CNS Infection (35%) Fever, lethargy, seizures, abnormal CSF 50% mortality; major sequelae if survive Disseminated disease (25%) Hepatosplenomegaly, jaundice, hepatitis, pneumonia 2/3 develop skin vesicles 70% mortality

Neonatal HSV Diagnosis: immunofluorescence, culture, PCR Antibody titers are not useful Treat all newborn infants with possible HSV Begin therapy while awaiting diagnostic results Specific treatment (ACV) is is very well tolerated Recurrent skin vesicles are associated with a poorer prognosis may re-treat with ACV May give 6 weeks of oral ACV

Natural History of VZV Primary infection: varicella Highly contagious (airborne) Complications: bacterial superinfection, encephalitis, pneumonia, congenital syndrome Secondary infection: zoster Zoster is due to reactivation of latent VZV DNA, RNA, proteins in ganglia at autopsy Zoster in a few vaccinees caused by Oka vaccine From low cell-mediated immunity (CMI) to VZV No asymptomatic shedding of VZV as with HSV

Varicella is a generalized illness Varicella is a generalized illness. Infectious virions are produced in the skin vesicles.

Zoster is initially localized. Limited to 1-3 dermatomes. May disseminate in immunocompromised hosts.

In the body VZV spreads from cell-to-cell In varicella, VZV is transported from the respiratory mucosa to the blood (viremia) in T cells, where virus is not accessible to antibodies. Because cell-to-cell spread is slow, the incubation period of varicella is long (2 weeks). Slow spread prevents host from being overwhelmed before the immune response develops T helper (TH1) and cytotoxic T cells are required for host control of virus

Congenital varicella syndrome

Fatal neonatal varicella

Zoster in a 3 month old

VZV In the Immunocompromised Varicella is likely to be severe Prevent or modify with pre-formed antibodies just after exposure Virus spreads from cell-cell in body requires CMI for host defense Treat most patients immediately with acyclovir The frequency of zoster is increased Probably related to low CMI response Likely to suffer post-herpetic neuralgia (PHN) (also elderly)

Latent Infection with VZV Latent infection in dorsal root ganglia (DRG) 6 of 68 genes (also RNA and proteins) expressed during latency Proteins of regulatory genes are expressed in cell cytoplasm, not nucleus Suggests regulatory proteins are blocked from normal action, leading to inhibition of cascade of gene expression preventing lytic infection from occurring (latency) Latency is established when cell-free VZV in skin vesicles invades neurons

Varicella Vaccine Only herpesvirus for which there is a vaccine Live, attenuated, infectious virus (Oka strain) Licensed for routine use in healthy susceptible individuals in US, in 1995 Recently there has been a marked decrease in varicella, in all age groups Indicates herd immunity Contraindications: pregnancy, immunocompromised, allergy to vaccine components

Varicella Vaccine Major complaint afterwards: mild rash in 5% 1 month after vaccination; transmission to others is rare This vaccine is extremely safe 80% completely protected; 20% partial immunity There is little evidence for waning immunity Subsequent zoster is rare

Varicella, Antelope Valley, CA Number of Cases 1995 1996 1997 1998 1999 2000 Jan Jul 2001 Jan 2002

The rash of VZV is vesicular. Vesicular fluid is highly infectious. Well-formed virions are suspended in it.

Indirect immunofluorescence To diagnose VZV, HSV

Laboratory Methods for Diagnosis Culture, DFA, PCR, cytology on skin rash Can distinguish the Oka virus from wild type virus Antibody titers, IgG Acute serum, early in illness Convalescent serum, 10-14 days after onset Antibody titers, IgM False positives and false negatives can be a problem

Acyclovir (ACV) is useful to treat HSV, VZV Antiviral activity only in infected cells (TK) Sensitivity: HSV1, >HSV2, >VZV ( EBV, CMV) Toxicity is unusual: gastrointestinal, neurologic (headache, seizures, delerium); anemia, thrombocytopenia, bone marrow suppression Resistance is a concern, especially in HIV-infected patients Newer drugs: famciclovir, valacyclovir Administered orally and less frequenly than ACV because better gastrointestinal absorption

Cytomegalovirus (CMV) Largest of the herpesviruses (mRNA too) 208 ORFs; gB, gH immune evasion Down regulation of MHC class I expression to reduce effectiveness of cytotoxic T cells Host defense: cellular not humoral immunity Latency in bone marrow precursors of monocytic peripheral blood cells Differentiation of monocytes into macrophages due to antigenic stimulation reactivates CMV Adverse effects on ransplantation

Cytomegalovirus (CMV) In healthy adult hosts infection is usually subclinical Mononucleosis-like syndrome occurs but is rare Severe, opportunistic infections in immunocompromised hosts AIDS patients, after transplantation Fetal (congenital) infections: can be severe Perinatal infections: of little consequence At birth (maternal secretions), from breast milk

Congenital CMV Infection Most common congenital viral infection in US - 40,000 annual cases (1% of all infants) - 3,000 symptomatic at birth (jaundice, petechiae, microcephaly, prematurity) - 8,000 with sequelae (deafness, retardation) Risk to the infant is highest in first trimester (13 weeks) maternal infection - primary maternal infection poses greatest risk - the fetus is not always protected when an “immune” mother is re-infected with a different strain of CMV Distinguish between congenital and perinatal In congenital urine is culture +for CMV in first 3 weeks of life

CMV Infections in the Immunocompromised (including AIDS) Frequent May be primary or recurrent (reactivation from latency) Can have reinfection with a new strain Symptoms/signs: fever, pneumonia, retinitis, colitis, lymphadenopathy, rash, encephalitis, neutropenia, etc. Diagnosis is difficult; must distinguish between true infection/disease and persistent virus Asymptomatic infections occur

Diagnosis of CMV Histology: has limitations (not specific) Basophilic inclusion bodies H&E, Pap staining Cell culture Cytopathic effect, immunofluorescence Serology: acute and convalescent antibody titers are of limited value False positive and false negative IgM titers In situ hybridization PCR

Treatment of CMV Ganciclovir Foscarnet Cidofovir Phosphorylation by viral enzymes causes inhibition of viral DNA polymerase (related to acyclovir); toxicity: bone marrow suppression Foscarnet Inhibits viral DNA polymerase; renal, metabolic toxicity Cidofovir Inhibits viral DNA polymerase Very toxic (renal, uric acid increase) Pre-emptive approach Identify infection before the illness Treatment used mostly for immunocompromised patients

Transmission of CMV Close personal contact Sexual, day care, saliva, tears, urine Virus is not usually airborne Cell-associated virus, no skin lesions Spread from secretions, on hands Intrauterine/birth/breast milk Transfusion Transplantation

Control of CMV Hand washing (eg, after diapering) Condoms, abstinence Beware of blood Use seronegative, irradiated, filtered blood for high risk patients Testing for CMV in transplantation (donor, recipeint) Vaccine still not available

Epstein-Barr Infections (gamma) Major glycoprotein is gp 350 which binds to CD21 on B cells (C3d complement receptor) Patients with x-linked agammaglobuinemia can’t be infected Seropositive persons shed virus in saliva (lytic) Virus practices immune evasion Genes that mimic IL 10 and decrease IF response, inhibit apoptosis Experimental therapy for immunocompromised patients with severe infections/tumors Decrease immunosuppressive therapy if possible Monoclonal antibodies (rituximab: CD 20) Infusion of leukocytes

Epstein-Barr Infections (EBV) Infectious mononucleosis, nasopharyngeal carcinoma, lymphomas (including Burkitt’s), oral hairy leukoplakia (lytic infection), X-linked proliferative disease (males only) B cells are latently infected in mononucleosis; T cells (atypical lymphocytes) are the host response Latency persists in memory B cells EBV is not related to chronic fatigue syndrome, but rarely severe chronic illness follows mononucleosis In mononucleosis, give steroids if airway obstruction, hemolytic anemia, severe cardiac, neurologic disease (no specific antiviral therapy)

Diagnosis of Mononucleosis Usually occurs in young adults Symptoms, signs: fever, adenopathy, exudative pharyngitis, rash (ampicillin) hepatosplenomegaly fatigue Positive heterophile antobody (monospot) EBV specific antibodies Anti VCA (develops early, persists) Anti EBNA (develops late persists)

Herpesviruses 6, 7 Herpesvirus 6 (beta, like CMV) Roseola in infants (rash, fever, seizures) outcome of latency in CNS not understood Fevers in immunosuppressed Rare mononucleosis syndrome in adults Herpesvirus 7 (beta, like CMV) Fevers in immunocompromised (HIV) Diagnosis, treatment are not fully developed Most infections are self-limited

Herpesvirus 8 (KHSV) Closely related to EBV Encodes for human proteins (piracy) IL-6, Bcl-2, cheomkines and receptor Infections are rare in children Can cause non-specific fever and rash illness Causes Kaposi’s Sarcoma Elderly HIV-infected Causes primary-effusion lymphoma Castleman’s disease
