Abstract

ABSTRACTRecovery from infection with the Friend murine leukemia retrovirus complex (FV) requires T-helper cells and cytotoxic T cells as well as neutralizing antibodies. Several host genes, including genes of the major histocompatibility complex (H-2) and anH-2-unlinked gene,Rfv-3, influence these FV-specific immune responses. (B10.A × A/Wy)F1mice, which have theH-2a/aRfv-3r/sgenotype, fail to mount a detectable FV-specific T-cell proliferative response but nevertheless produce FV-specific neutralizing immunoglobulin M (IgM) antibodies and can eliminate FV viremia. Thus, this IgM response, primarily influenced by theRfv-3gene, may be T-cell independent. To test this idea, mice were depleted of either CD4+or CD8+T-cell populations in vivo and were monitored for the effect on the neutralizing antibody response following FV infection. Surprisingly, mice in which CD4+cells were depleted showed undetectable FV-neutralizing antibody responses and high viremia levels compared to nondepleted or CD8-depleted animals. In addition to knocking out the FV antibody response, CD4+T-cell depletion reduced survival time significantly, further indicating the importance of CD4+T cells. These studies revealed the first evidence for a functional T-cell response following FV infection in these low-recovery mice and showed that CD4+T-helper cells are required for theRfv-3-controlled FV antibody response.
