Structure Virion Structure Genomic Structure Structural Proteins
5
Virion Structure Spherical 80-120 nm diameter Enveloped
Helical nucleocapsid NO matrix protein
6
Genomic Structure (-) sense Linear ssRNA Three segments:
Large (L) codes for viral polymerase Medium (M) codes for G1 and G2 glycoproteins Small (S) codes for nucleocapsid
7
Structural Proteins Membrane Glycoproteins Nucleocapsid Protein
Viral Polymerase
8
Structural Proteins Membrane glycoproteins (G1 and G2) Polymerase (L)
Nucleocapsid proteins (N)
9
Membrane Glycoproteins
G1 and G2 Integral membrane proteins Important in cell entry and pathogenesis
10
Nucleocapsid Protein Complexes with genomic vRNA in virus, as well as with cRNA after infection, but not with mRNA Necessary for virus replication and packaging
11
Viral Polymerase RNA-dependent RNA polymerase
Complexed with ribonucleocapsid in virion Endonuclease activity to cleave host mRNA Transcriptase activity for making cRNA and mRNA from vRNA Helicase activity to unwind vRNA during transcription
12
Viral Replication Receptor mediated endocytosis Occurs in cytoplasm
Budding at Golgi apparatus or cell membrane
13
Hantavirus Replication Cycle
Attachment Entry and Uncoating Primary Transcription Translation Genome Replication Secondary Transcription Virion Assembly Virion Release
14
Attachment Viral G1 and G2 glycoproteins interact with cell surface receptors Pathogenic hantavirus bind β3 integrins Non-pathogenic hantaviruses bind β1 receptors
15
Entry and Uncoating Virus particles bound to integrin receptors are taken in by receptor mediated endocytosis Newly formed vesicles are acidified Acidic environment changes confirmation of G1 and G2 glycoproteins Viral and cell membranes fuse Genomic material and polymerase are released into cytoplasm
16
Attachment and Entry
17
Primary Transcription
Transcription of negative sense vRNA to mRNA Viral polymerase transcribes nucleoprotein-coated vRNA Capped oligonucleotides from cell’s own mRNA are used to prime transcription (similar to Influenza virus)
18
Translation L and S segments of mRNA are translated on free ribosomes in cytoplasm M segment mRNA is translated on ER-bound ribosomes
19
Translation
20
Genome Replication vRNA is used as a template by viral polymerase to make cRNA cRNA is used as a template to make more negative sense strands of vRNA
21
Secondary Transcription
Extra vRNA synthesized during replication is used as template to make mRNA Since more template is present after vRNA is replicated, more mRNA can be transcribed, and more viral proteins can be made Persistent infection
22
Virion Assembly Membrane-bound G1 and G2 peptides are transported to Golgi apparatus and carbohydrates are attached by N-linked glycosylation vRNA complexes with N nucleocapsid protein, forms looped panhandle structure, and complexes with polymerase
23
Virion Assembly
24
Virion Release Two Mechanisms
Nucleocapsid complexes bud into the Golgi membrane with G1 and G2 embedded Virion particle is formed inside Golgi apparatus Virions are transported to cell membrane by vesicles and released by exocytosis G1 and G2 embed into cell membrane through Golgi vesicles Virions bud from cell membrane, not through Golgi apparatus
25
Attachment Entry Uncoating Release Transcription Replication Assembly Translation
26
LaCrosse Encephalatis Bunyavirus
Mostly infects children younger than 16 Ades mosquitoes are the common vector Squirrels and chipmunks are the amplifying host Most common bunyavirus infection in the United States
27
LaCrosse Encephalatis Bunyavirus
Targets the brain Symptoms may include: Fever Convulsions Drowsiness Focal neurological signs
29
Rift Valley Fever Phlebovirus
Most spread by sandfly or Ades species of mosquitoes Causes abortion in livestock Highly infectious by aerosolized blood Distribution follows that of the host vectors Immunization of livestock is the most effective way to control and prevent the disease
30
Rift Valley Fever Phlebovirus
Febrile disease in humans Targets the liver Symptoms often include: Fever Encephalitis Retinal vasculitis (which may lead to blindness)
32
Rift Valley Fever Distribution Map
33
Crimean-Congo Hemorrhagic Fever Nairovirus
Transmitted by ticks Appears in the Middle East and Africa Targets the liver and vascular endothelium Symptoms include: Headache Pain in limbs Often bleeding from many orifices
34
Crimean-Congo Hemorrhagic Fever Nairovirus
35
Hantavirus Enveloped ssRNA Virions 98 nm in diameter
Genome consists of three RNA segments
36
Transmission Vectors Transmitted via aerosolized rodent urine, feces, and saliva Deer mouse (Peromyscus maniculatus) Cotton rat (Sigmodon hispidus) White-footed mouse (Peromyscus leucopus) Striped field mours (Apodemus agrarius) Bank vole (Clethrionomys glareolus) Rat (Rattus)
39
Hemorrhagic Fever with Renal Syndrome Hantavirus
Liver and vascular enothelium are targeted Symptoms include: Hemorrhage Acute renal failure Fever Over 15% mortality rate
40
Hantavirus Pulmonary Syndrome Hantavirus
Lungs are targeted Symptoms include Fever Acute respiratory distress Over 50% mortality rate Shock and cardiac complications often contribute to death
42
Prevention and Control
Vaccines Hygiene Vector Control
43
Vaccines E. coli expressed truncated nucleocapsid as an immunogen
Naked DNA Recombinant non-pathogenic virus Rodent brain-derived Cell culture derived Inactivated virus – being tried out in China
44
Hygiene Prevent aerosolization of virus from roden excrement
Dampen surfaces with bleach before cleaning Control rodents and human contact with rodents
47
Host Defenses and Immune Response
Interferon is produced Humor antibody has been shown to be related to the disappearance of virus from blood Cytotoxic T-cells attack infected host cells Inflammatory response
48
Treatment Early aggressive intensive care
Early use of inotropic agents (Dobutamine) Early ventilation Careful monitoring: Oxygenation Fluid balance Blood pressure
49
Treatment General care, alleviation of symptoms
Ribavirin (Hemorrhagic Fever with Renal Syndrome) ECMO (Hantavirus Pulmonary Syndrome)
50
Ribavirin Administered intravenously
Shown to be effective against Hemorrhagic Fever with Renal Syndrome Not shown to be effective against Hantavirus Pulmonary Syndrome causing strains
51
Extra Corporeal Membrane Oxygenation (ECMO)
Removes blood from the body and artificially removes CO2 and adds O2 Costly Difficult
52
ECMO
53
Laboratory Diagnosis Serology (ELISE for IgM) Immunohistochemistry
Reverse transcription and polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) Virus isolation Direct detection of antigen in blood and urine Immunofluorescent test for antibodies
54
Problems Diagnosing Hantavirus
Symptoms often confused with influenza Common signs of upper respiratory disease such as sore throat, sinusitis, and ear pain not usually present Abdominal pain often misinterpreted as appendicitis Many doctors outside endemic regions fail to recognize or have sufficient testing

Friday, March 26, 2004 PARKS AND PEOPLE Glacier National Park Death of Jerry O'Neal The employees of Glacier National Park are deeply saddened to learn of the untimely passing of Deputy Superintendent Jerry O'Neal. O’Neal died early yesterday morning at a Kalispell, Mont., hospital following a brief illness. O'Neal, 61, came down with an unknown illness last week and had undergone blood work and other diagnostic tests over the past few days. He was admitted to the Kalispell Regional Medical Center on Wednesday and died at 5:30 a.m. Thursday.

Friday, April 2, 2004 OPERATIONS NOTE Public Health Hantavirus Update
In view of the untimely death of Glacier National Park Deputy Superintendent Jerry O'Neal on March 25th from hantavirus pulmonary syndrome, we are issuing the following precautions and annual reminders. Hantavirus pulmonary syndrome (HPS) is a viral disease transmitted to humans primarily through the inhalation of airborne dusts laden with the virus from infected rodent droppings (urine and saliva may also be sources of infection). Although hantaviruses have been a threat to human health worldwide for at least 50 years, HPS was first recognized in the United States in 1993 around the Four Corners area of the Southwest. Since then it has since been identified throughout the United States. Although rare, HPS is potentially deadly – mortality rates between 40 and 50% are common.
