Bone marrow transplantation (BMT) recipients are at risk for substantial morbidity and mortality from human adenovirus infections, often in the setting of reactivation of persistent virus. Human adenovirus persistence in mucosal lymphocytes has been described, but specific cellular reservoirs of persistence and effects of persistence on host responses to unrelated stimuli are not completely understood. We used mouse adenovirus type 1 (MAV-1) to characterize persistence of an adenovirus in its natural host and test the hypothesis that persistence increases complications of BMT.

CD8 T cells contribute to effective clearance of mouse adenovirus type 1 (MAV-1) and to virus-induced pulmonary inflammation. We characterized effects of a CD8 T cell effector, TNF, on MAV-1 pathogenesis. TNF inhibited MAV-1 replication in vitro.
