Research Abstract |
Hepatitis E virus (HEV) causes acute and fulminant hepatitis E in humans. Infectious cDNA clones of HEV were established by several groups, and efficient HEV propagation in cultured cells has been recently developed using PLC/PRF/5 and A549 cells. However, our PLC/PRF/5 cells showed limited permissiveness for HEV. In this study, we performed single-cell cloning of PLC/PRF/5 cells and analyzed heterogeneity by using infectious HEV clone. We constructed an infectious cDNA clone of HEV from porcine liver. Then we performed single-cell cloning of PLC/PRF/5 cells by limited dilution. To analyze the limited permissiveness of our PLC/PRF/5 cells, cloned cells were either infected with HEV or transfected with an infectious HEV RNA and the production of HEV was measured by the detection of HEV capsid protein in culture supernatant by ELISA. Ninety-eight clones were obtained after single-cell cloning of parental PLC/PRF/5 cells. The cloned PLC/PRF/5 cells exhibited various levels of HEV virus infection efficiency, and some clones were not permissive. While the replication efficiencies measured by the transfection of infectious HEV RNA differed among the cloned PLC/PRF/5 cells, these efficiencies did not correlate with infectious permissibility. We cloned several PLC/PRF/5 cells that were nonpermissive for HEV. However, HEV could replicate in these nonpermissive cell lines, suggesting that these cell lines may have some deficiencies in the attachment or entry steps of HEV infection. Investigation of host factors responsible for these steps is in progress.
