Abstract: | Coxsackievirus A10 (CVA10) is one of the major pathogens associated with hand, foot, and mouth disease (HFMD). CVA10 infection can cause herpangina and viral pneumonia, which can be complicated by severe neurological sequelae. The morbidity and mortality of CVA10-associated HFMD have been increasing in recent years, particularly in the pan-Pacific region. There are limited studies, however, on the pathogenesis and immunology of CVA10-associated HFMD infections, and few antiviral drugs or vaccines have been reported. In the present study, a cell-adapted CVA10 strain was employed to inoculate intramuscularly 5-day-old ICR mice, which developed significant clinical signs, including reduced mobility, lower weight gain, and quadriplegia, with significant pathology in the brain, hind limb skeletal muscles, and lungs of infected mice in the moribund state. The severity of illness was associated with abnormally high expression of the proinflammatory cytokine interleukin 6 (IL-6). Antiviral assays demonstrated that ribavirin and gamma interferon administration could significantly inhibit CVA10 replication both in vitro and in vivo. In addition, formaldehyde-inactivated CVA10 whole-virus vaccines induced immune responses in adult mice, and maternal neutralizing antibodies could be transmitted to neonatal mice, providing protection against CVA10 clinical strains. Furthermore, high-titer antisera were effective against CVA10 and could relieve early clinical symptoms and improve the survival rates of CVA10-challenged neonatal mice. In summary, we present a novel murine model to study CVA10 pathology that will be extremely useful in developing effective antivirals and vaccines to diminish the burden of HFMD-associated disease. |
