https://www.selleckchem.com/products/bmn-673.html The efficiency of in vitro replication systems for pegivirus is poor, thus limiting investigation into viral replication steps. Because of that, the pathogenesis, cellular tropism, route of transmission, biology, and epidemiology of pegiviruses remain largely uncovered. Here, we report a phylogenetically distinct goose pegivirus (GPgV) that should be classified as a new species. GPgV proliferated in cell culture in a species- and cell-type-specific manner. Animal experiments show GPgV lymphotropism and promote goose parvovirus clinical manifestations. This study provides the first cell culture model for pegivirus, opening new possibilities for studies of pegivirus molecular biology. More importantly, our findings stand in contrast to the lack of identified pathogenicity of previously reported pegiviruses, which sheds lights on the pathobiology of pegivirus.Robust priming of CD8+ T cells by viruses is considered to require infection and de novo expression of viral antigens. A corollary of this is that inactivated viruses are thought of as being inevitably poor vaccines for eliciting these responses. In contrast to this dogma, we found that some antigens present in vaccinia virus (VACV) virions prime strong CD8+ T cell responses when the virus was rendered noninfectious by heat. More surprisingly, in some cases these responses were similar in magnitude to those primed by infectious virus administered at an equivalent dose. Next, we tested whether this was a special property of particular antigens and their epitopes and found that foreign epitopes tagged onto three different VACV virion proteins were able to elicit CD8+ T cell responses irrespective of whether the virus was viable or heat killed. Further, the polyfunctionality and cytotoxic ability of the CD8+ T cells primed by these VACVs was equivalent irrespective of whether they were administered to mice as intor virus that could be used as an inactivated vaccine.
