Ludewig 2 The swift production of type I IFNs is one of the fundamental aspects of innate immune responses against viruses Plasmacytoid dendritic cell derived type I IFNs are of prime importance for the initial control of highly cytopathic viruses such as the mouse hepatitis virus MHV The aim of this study was to determine the major target cell populations of this first wave of type I IFNs Generation of bone marrow chimeric mice expressing the type I IFN receptor IFNAR on either hemopoietic or non bone marrow derived cells revealed that the early control of MHV depended mainly on IFNAR expression on hemopoietic cells To establish which cell population responds most efficiently to type I IFNs mice conditionally deficient for the IFNAR on different leukocyte subsets were infected with MHV This genetic analysis revealed that IFNAR expression on LysM H11545 macrophages and CD11c H11545 dendritic cells was most important for the early containment of MHV within secondary lymphoid organs and to prevent lethal liver disease This study identifies type I IFN mediated cross talk between plasmacytoid dendritic cells on one side and macrophages and conventional dendritic cells on the other as an essential cellular pathway for the control of fatal cytopathic virus infection The Journal of Immunology 2009 182 1099 1106 F or the control of fast replicating cytopathic virus infec tions the immune system must act rapidly to control viral replication and dissemination before tissue damage and inflammation endanger survival of the host Secretion of type I IFNs is an essential component of the innate immune response against viruses These soluble factors induce an array of intracel lular effectors including protein kinase R 2H11032 5H11032 oligoadenylate synthetases and Mx proteins which halt viral replication 1 Fur thermore type 1 IFNs exert proapoptotic activities that control viral spread by eliminating infected cells 2 and they deliver im munomodulatory stimuli that affect cell migration 3 4 cross presentation 5 8 B cell responses and Ig isotype switch 9 11 CD4 H11001 T cell activation 12 13 or CTL expansion 14 15 How ever chronic activation of the type I IFN system can be detrimen tal for the host because autoimmune responses might be aggra vated 16 17 The fact that almost all cells are able to produce type I IFNs under certain conditions and also respond to it led to the initial idea of a general antiviral state However several in vitro stud ies have provided insight into the subtle differences of cell pop ulation specific effects of type I IFNs which depend largely on the constitutive vs inducible expression of STAT proteins and IFN regulatory factors and the state of cellular differentiation 18 19 It therefore appears that there is a cell type specific context dependent differential requirement of type I IFN re sponsiveness that secures optimal protection against viral in fection while reducing potential immunopathological side ef fects of these potent cytokines The murine hepatitis virus MHV 3 A59 is a group II corona virus that causes hepatitis and demyelinating encephalomyelitis in mice This natural mouse pathogen is one of the most extensively studied coronaviruses 20 A strong CTL response mediates clear ance of the virus between days 6 and 8 postinfection 21 22 and neutralizing Abs appear to be required to prevent re emergence of persistent CNS infection 23 24 Nonetheless before effective adaptive immune responses are elicited type I IFN mediated in nate immune responses are essential for the survival of the host in the early phase of infection The first wave of type I IFNs is pro duced almost exclusively by plasmacytoid dendritic cells pDC leading to containment of the virus and prevention of disease 25 Thus MHV infection represents a well suited model to investigate whether a particular hierarchy exists in the dependency on pDC derived type I IFNs which secure control of cytopathic viral in fection and protect the host from severe disease In this study we have used type I IFNR deficient ifnar H11002 H11002 bone marrow chimeric mice and conditionally gene targeted mice with cell type specific IF NAR deletion to elucidate whether type I IFN signaling is required on all nucleated cells We found that during MHV infection the presence of the IFNAR on LysM H11001 macrophages and CD11c H11001 con ventional dendritic cells cDC is of utmost importance whereas type I IFN responsiveness of other MHV target cells such as B cells appeared not to be critical for the control of the virus Overall our results indicate that cells from the hemopoietic system and in particular macrophages and cDCs are the prime target cells for type 1 IFNs during murine coronavirus infection Research Department

IFN H9251 Mice were injected i p with 50 PFU of MHV A59 representing a low dose infection with maximal liver disease around day 5 comparable with the kinetics of systemic infection as described previously 25 To achieve maximal target cell infection in B6 mice and minimal infection associated death in ifnar H11002 H11002 mice a dose of 5 H11003 10 3 PFU GFP recombinant MHV 31 was used Intranasal infection was done with 5 H11003 10 4 PFU of MHV A59 because at this dose 100 of the mice were reproducibly infected and the virus did not spread systemically in B6 mice Mice were

Statistical significance was defined as a value of p H11021 0 05 Results Early control of MHV depends on type I IFN responsiveness of hemopoietic cells To better define the cellular targets for the activity of type I IFNs bone marrow chimeras were generated using ifnar H11002 H11002 or B6 mice The chimeric mice that expressed the IFNAR on either hemopoi etic or nonhemopoietic cells were infected i p with 50 PFU of MHV A59 Because ifnar H11002 H11002 mice succumb to MHV infection rapidly 25 mice were sacrificed after 48 h and IFN H9251 produc tion severity of liver disease and viral titers in spleens livers and lungs were determined As shown in Fig 1A neither the lack of the IFNAR on hemopoietic nor that on nonhemopoietic cells pre cluded production of IFN H9251 Furthermore induction of IFN H9252 was not influenced by the absence of IFNAR on different cell subsets data not shown The lack of the IFNAR on radio resistant pa renchymal cells B63ifnar H11002 H11002 did not lead to significantly ele vated liver enzyme values whereas the absence of the IFNAR on bone marrow derived cells ifnar H11002 H11002 3B6 resulted in severe liver disease Fig 1C Moreover viral titers in livers spleens and lungs Fig 1B from these mice were significantly higher than in mice that expressed the IFNAR only on hemopoietic cells Most importantly the expression of IFNAR on the hemopoietic cells B63ifnar H11002 H11002 secured significantly longer survival of the mice Fig 1D These results indicate a clear hierarchy in the impor tance of the IFNAR expressed on hemopoietic vs nonhemopoietic cells the presence of the IFNAR on hemopoietic cells appears to be important to contain the virus within secondary lymphoid or gans and thereby contributes critically to the prevention of disease Target cells of MHV within the bone marrow derived cell compartment It is likely that those cells that are most easily infected by a cyto pathic virus and therefore rapidly lost during the infection are most dependent on the protection provided by the type I IFN system Working along this assumption we first determined which cell 1100 TARGET CELLS OF pDC DERIVED IFN at North Carolina

primary macrophages cDCs neutrophils and B cells could be infected with MHV and that the lack of IFNAR on these cells slightly increased their susceptibility To confirm whether this target cell tropism of MHV for particular leukocyte subsets can be reproduced in vivo B6 and ifnar H11002 H11002 mice were infected with 5 H11003 10 3 PFU of GFP recombinant MHV i p and the different spleen cell populations were probed for GFP ex pression 36 h postinfection using flow cytometric analysis as de scribed previously We could not detect GFP positive cells in the different splenocyte fractions derived from infected B6 mice Fig 2B top row suggesting that the intact type I IFN system in these mice had efficiently blocked viral replication below the level of detection Indeed macrophages cDCs B cells and neutrophils from infected ifnar H11002 H11002 mice showed significant GFP expression Fig 2B bottom row Other leukocyte populations such as CD4 H11001 and CD8 H11001 T lymphocytes Fig 2B and NK cells not shown did not exhibit significant GFP expression Furthermore B6 and ifnar H11002 H11002 mice were infected with 5 H11003 10 3 PFU of MHV and fluorescence microscopic analysis was performed using anti MHV nucleoprotein Ab to identify infected cells in situ Whereas MHV infected F4 80 H11001 cells in the red pulp Fig 2C and CD11c H11001 in the white pulp Fig 2D could be readily detected in spleens of ifnar H11002 H11002 mice colocalization of the MHV nucleoprotein with the B cell marker B220 Fig 2 C and D and with the neutrophil marker Ly6G not shown was rare As expected only very few MHV infected cells were found in B6 mice not shown thus con firming the high susceptibility of cDCs and macrophages to MHV infection in the absence of a functional type I IFN system Requirement of IFNAR expression on different leukocyte populations To assess the differential requirement of type I IFN responsiveness of the MHV target populations we used a set of conditionally gene targeted mice Crossing of mice with a loxP flanked ifnar1 ifnar1 fl fl with mice that express the Cre recombinase in a cell type specific manner resulted in deletion of the IFNAR in T cells CD4 Cre

ifnar1 fl fl mice succumbed to the infection LysM Cre H11001 H11002 ifnar1 fl fl developed a more severe phenotype with lethal disease after 4 days of infection Likewise LysM Cre H11001 H11002 ifnar1 fl fl mice showed the most severe liver pathology with sig nificantly elevated ALT values as early as day 2 postinfection Fig 3B and a massive damage of liver tissue Fig 3C Because neu trophils can be infected with MHV in vivo Fig 2B we determined next whether the presence of neutrophils in LysM Cre H11001 H11002 ifnar1 fl fl FIGURE 1 Type I IFN responsiveness of bone marrow derived cells is
