Tick-borne encephalitis virus (TBEV) is a zoonotic virus that causes tick-borne encephalitis (TBE) in humans. Infections of Sapporo-17-Io1 (Sapporo) and Oshima 5-10 (Oshima) TBEV strains showed different pathogenic effects in mice. However, the differences between the two strains are unknown. In this study, we examined neuronal degeneration and death, and activation of glial cells in mice inoculated with each strain to investigate the pathogenesis of TBE. Viral growth was similar between Sapporo and Oshima, but neuronal degeneration and death, and activation of glial cells, was more prominent with Oshima. In human neuroblastoma cells, apoptosis and pyroptosis were not observed after TBEV infection. However, the expression of the necroptosis marker, mixed lineage kinase domain-like (MLKL) protein, was upregulated by TBEV infection, and this upregulation was more pronounced in Oshima than Sapporo infections. As necroptosis is a pro-inflammatory type of cell death, differences in necroptosis induction might be involved in the differences in neuropathogenicity of TBE. |
