Abstract
Sendai virus is a member of the family Paramyxoviridae, and an enveloped virus with a negative-stranded RNA genome. Sendai virus is not pathogenic to humans, but for mice and can cause pneumonia in mice. Easy and efficient techniques for propagating Sendai virus are required for studying virus replication, virus-induced innate- and adaptive-immunity, Sendai-virus-based virotherapy and IgA nephropathy. Here, we describe a protocol for Sendai virus propagation using chicken eggs. This traditional protocol enables us to generate a large amount of virus enough for animal experiments as well as cell culture experiments in a relatively inexpensive way.
Keywords: Sendai virus (仙台病毒)Background
Sendai virus (SeV) is a mouse parainfluenza virus type 1 that was discovered in Sendai, Japan, in the 1950s (Ishida and Homma, 1978). The virus was once named Hemagglutinating Virus of Japan (HVJ) by the Japanese Society for Virology, but was later termed ‘newborn virus pneumonitis (type Sendai)’ (Kuroya and Ishida, 1953). The name SeV is currently most popular, and now understood to be a pathogen of mice, not humans (Karron RA, 2007). Fukumi et al. first described SeV infections of mice in 1954 (Fukumi et al., 1954). This infection can be subclinical, but SeV is also known as one of the leading causes of pneumonia in certain mouse strains (Fukumi et al., 1954; Parker et al., 1978). SeV is an excellent tool to study the following in the various fields: the pathomechanism of a murine model of IgA nephropathy (Yamashita et al., 2007; Chintalacharuvu et al., 2008), a stimulator of RIG-I/MDA5 in innate immunity (Fensterl et al., 2008; Chattopadhyay et al., 2010, 2011 and 2013; Yamashita et al., 2012a, 2012b and 2013), oncolytic SeV-based virotherapy (Saga and Kaneda, 2015), a respiratory infection (Hermesh et al., 2010 and 2012), and a vector for AIDS vaccine (Ishii and Matano, 2015). SeV is uniquely sensitive to interferon-associated responses, and grows to high titers in both chicken eggs and in FDA-approved mammalian cell lines, an advantage for vaccine production. This protocol provides a method for SeV propagation using chicken eggs. This method can be applied for viral propagation for other viruses such as influenza virus.
