Bovine herpesvirus 1 (BoHV-1), including commercially available modified live vaccines, readily infect the fetus and ovaries, which can cause reproductive failure. The BoHV-1 latency-reactivation cycle in sensory neurons further complicates reproductive failure because progesterone sporadically induces reactivation from latency. The progesterone receptor (PR) and Krüppel-like transcription factor 15 (KLF15) cooperatively stimulate productive infection and the immediate early transcription unit 1 (IEtu1) promoter. In addition to the IEtu1 promoter, the bICP0 gene also contains a separate early (E) promoter. In this study, we tested the hypothesis that PR and KLF family members transactivate the bICP0 E promoter. PR and KLF4 stimulated bICP0 E promoter activity and expression of late productive viral protein expression in a cooperative manner. Additional studies revealed three enhancer domains within the bICP0 E promoter were responsive to PR and KLF4. Chromatin immunoprecipitation studies demonstrated PR and KLF4 occupy bICP0 E promoter sequences in transfected Neuro-2A cells and at late times following infection of bovine kidney cells. Co-immunoprecipitation studies indicated PR and KLF4 stably interact with each other. These studies suggest cooperative activation of the bICP0 E promoter by PR and KLF4 correlate with interactions between these pioneer transcription factors.

Article Synopsis
- BoHV-1 is a major concern for the cattle industry due to its ability to remain dormant and reactivate during stressful conditions, leading to various health issues in cattle.
- The virus primarily establishes latency in sensory neurons of the trigeminal ganglia and cells in the pharyngeal tonsils, with reactivation linked to reproductive issues, immune suppression, and pneumonia risk in young calves.
- Key transcription factors, including the glucocorticoid receptor and KLF15, play crucial roles in initiating viral replication and reactivation from latency by interacting with the virus's genetic material.
A cell cycle regulator, E2F2, and glucocorticoid receptor cooperatively transactivate the bovine alphaherpesvirus 1 immediate early transcription unit 1 promoter.

Unlabelled: Bovine alphaherpesvirus 1 (BoHV-1) infection causes respiratory tract disorders and immune suppression and may induce bacterial pneumonia. BoHV-1 establishes lifelong latency in sensory neurons after acute infection. Reactivation from latency consistently occurs following stress or intravenous injection of the synthetic corticosteroid dexamethasone (DEX), which mimics stress.

Bovine alphaherpesvirus 1 (BoHV-1) infections cause respiratory tract disorders and suppress immune responses, which can culminate in bacterial pneumonia. Following acute infection, BoHV-1 establishes lifelong latency in sensory neurons present in trigeminal ganglia (TG) and unknown cells in pharyngeal tonsil. Latently infected calves consistently reactivate from latency after an intravenous injection of the synthetic corticosteroid dexamethasone (DEX), which mimics the effects of stress.

Acute infection of the ocular, oral, or nasal cavity by bovine herpesvirus 1 (BoHV-1) culminates in lifelong latency in sensory neurons within trigeminal ganglia. The BoHV-1 latency reactivation cycle, including calves latently infected with commercially available modified live vaccines, can lead to reproductive complications, including abortions. Recent studies demonstrated progesterone stimulated BoHV-1 productive infection and sporadically induced reactivation from latency in male rabbits.

Following bovine herpesvirus 1 (BoHV-1) acute infection of ocular, oral, or nasal cavities, sensory neurons within trigeminal ganglia are an important site for latency. Stress, as mimicked by the synthetic corticosteroid dexamethasone, consistently induces reactivation from latency. Expression of two key viral transcriptional regulatory proteins, BoHV-1 infected cell protein 0 (bICP0) and bICP4, are regulated by sequences within the immediate early promoter (IEtu1).
