Herpes simplex virus replication in pheochromocytoma cell line that responds to nerve growth factor. 1978

L I Pizer, and S U Kim, and P Nystrom, and V C Coates

Cultured cells of neural origin (PC-12, pheochromocytoma cell line) respond to nerve growth factor (NGF) by extending neurites. These cells whether treated with NGF or not can be infected with herpes simplex virus and produce progeny virus. Viral antigens are detected on the cell surface and fusion of cells to form polykaryocytes takes place. Nucleocapsids are found within the cell nucleus and enveloped virus in a present both in the cytoplasm and extracellular space. Virus was not observed within the neurites but laterations in the neurite microtubular structure occurred after infection.

D010673 Pheochromocytoma A usually benign, well-encapsulated, lobular, vascular tumor of chromaffin tissue of the ADRENAL MEDULLA or sympathetic paraganglia. The cardinal symptom, reflecting the increased secretion of EPINEPHRINE and NOREPINEPHRINE, is HYPERTENSION, which may be persistent or intermittent. During severe attacks, there may be HEADACHE; SWEATING, palpitation, apprehension, TREMOR; PALLOR or FLUSHING of the face, NAUSEA and VOMITING, pain in the CHEST and ABDOMEN, and paresthesias of the extremities. The incidence of malignancy is as low as 5% but the pathologic distinction between benign and malignant pheochromocytomas is not clear.
