Abstract:
Objective To study the cytopathogenic effect of epidemic hemorrhagic fever with renal syndrome virus (HFRSV) on renal tubular cells(RTC). Methods Human fetal renal tubular cells (HFRTC) were cultured in vitro. HFRTC infected or not infected by HFRSV were observed by using trypan-blue stain and transmission electron microscopy(TEM). Viral-mRNA was detected by in situ molecular hybridization. Results (1) HFRSV could directly infected HFRTC: (2)The death rate of HFRTC in the infection group was significantly higher than that in the control grou 1 to 4 weeks after infection; (3) Injuries of cell membrane and cell organs after infection with HFRSV were significantly earlier and more severe as compared to control by means of TEM. Conclusion HFRSV can directly damage renal tubular cells (RTC ), which contributes to the pathogenesis of hemorrhagic fever with renal syndrome (HFRS).
