Abstract
Haploinsufficiency of GRN causes frontotemporal dementia (FTD). The GRN locus produces progranulin (PGRN), which is cleaved to lysosomal granulin polypeptides. The function of lysosomal granulins and why their absence causes neurodegeneration are unclear. Here we discover that PGRN-deficient human cells and murine brains, as well as human frontal lobes from GRN-mutation FTD patients have increased levels of gangliosides, glycosphingolipids that contain sialic acid. In these cells and tissues, levels of lysosomal enzymes that catabolize gangliosides were normal, but levels of bis(monoacylglycero)phosphates (BMP), lipids required for ganglioside catabolism, were reduced with PGRN deficiency. Our findings indicate that granulins are required to maintain BMP levels to support ganglioside catabolism, and that PGRN deficiency in lysosomes leads to gangliosidosis. Lysosomal ganglioside accumulation may contribute to neuroinflammation and neurodegeneration susceptibility observed in FTD due to PGRN deficiency and other neurodegenerative diseases.

Abstract
Human motor neurons are important materials for the research of the pathogenesis and drug discovery of motor neuron diseases. Various methods to generate motor neurons (MNs) from embryonic stem cells (ESCs) or induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSCs) by the addition of signaling molecules have been reported. However, they require multiple steps and complicated processes. Here we describe an approach for generating human MNs from ESCs/iPSCs using a single Sendai virus vector encoding three transcription factors-Lhx3, Ngn2, and Isl1. This approach enabled us to generate MNs in one step, adding Sendai virus vector in culture medium. This simple method significantly reduces the efforts to generate MNs, and it provides a useful tool for motor neuron disease research.

Abstract
Pathological aggregates of tau proteins accumulate in the brains of neurodegenerative tauopathies including Alzheimer’s disease and frontotemporal lobar degeneration (FTLD-tau). Although immunotherapies of these disorders against tau are emerging, it is unknown whether nasal delivery, which offers many benefits over traditional approaches to vaccine administration, is effective or not for tauopathy. Here, we developed vaccination against a secreted form of pathological tau linked to FTLD-tau using a Sendai virus (SeV) vector infectious to host nasal mucosa, a key part of the immune system. Tau vaccines given as nasal drops induced tissue tau-immunoreactive antibody production and ameliorated cognitive impairment in FTLD-tau model mice. In vivo imaging and postmortem neuropathological assays demonstrated the suppression of phosphorylated tau accumulation, neurotoxic gliosis, and neuronal loss in the hippocampus of immunized mice. These findings suggest that nasal vaccine delivery may provide a therapeutic opportunity for a broad range of populations with human tauopathy.

Abstract
Development of an effective AIDS vaccine is crucial for the control of global human immunodeficiency virus type 1 (HIV-1) prevalence. We have developed a novel AIDS vaccine using a Sendai virus (SeV) vector and investigated its efficacy in a macaque AIDS model of simian immunodeficiency virus (SIV) infection. Its immunogenicity and protective efficacy have been shown, indicating that the SeV vector is a promising delivery tool for AIDS vaccines. Here, we describe the potential of SeV vector as a vaccine antigen delivery tool to induce effective immune responses against HIV-1 infection.

Abstract
The picture beginning to form from genome analyses of viruses, unicellular organisms, and multicellular organisms is that viruses have shared functional modules with cells. A process of coevolution has probably involved exchanges of genetic information between cells and viruses for long evolutionary periods. From this point of view present-day viruses show flexibility in receptor usage and a capacity to alter through mutation their receptor recognition specificity. It is possible that for the complex DNA viruses, due to a likely limited tolerance to generalized high mutation rates, modifications in receptor specificity will be less frequent than for RNA viruses, albeit with similar biological consequences once they occur. It is found that different receptors, or allelic forms of one receptor, may be used with different efficiency and receptor affinities are probably modified by mutation and selection. Receptor abundance and its affinity for a virus may modulate not only the efficiency of infection, but also the capacity of the virus to diffuse toward other sites of the organism. The chapter concludes that receptors may be shared by different, unrelated viruses and that one virus may use several receptors and may expand its receptor specificity in ways that, at present, are largely unpredictable.

Abstract
To determine the usefulness of recombinant Sendai virus (SeV) for ocular gene transfer, the authors characterized SeV-mediated gene transfer to the retinal tissue of adult rats via subretinal injection. Recombinant SeV encoding the lacZ gene achieved frequent transgene expression in the retinal pigment epithelium (RPE) (mean=38.76%), while gene transfer to other retinal cells was rare. These findings are similar to those of previous reports using adenoviruses. Peak reporter gene expression of SeV in cultured RPE cells was similar to that of adenovirus at the same titer; however, SeV achieved high levels of expression after a brief vector-cell contact time, while adenovirus required over 3hr for efficient gene transfer. This finding was also observed in vivo following a brief SeV filling in the subretinal space, and may therefore provide a clinical advantage in avoiding retinal damage due to prolonged detachment. The observed SeV-mediated gene expression in the rat retina was transient. The initial phase of the decrease in luciferase activity could be prevented by daily eye drops of dexamethasone, suggesting that the corticosteroid-sensitive host reaction may affect early clearance of the virus. The late decline of transgene expression (2 weeks) was inhibited by the immunosuppressant, cyclosporin A, in a dose-dependent manner, suggesting that the cytotoxic T-lymphocyte response may be important in this phase. This work represents the first report of SeV-mediated gene transfer to ocular tissue, and identifies recombinant SeV as a new tool for studies of retinal gene transfer and gene therapy.

Abstract
In the early stage of infection, Sendai virus delivers its genome into the cytoplasm by fusing the viral envelope with the cell membrane. Although the adsorption of virus particles to cell surface receptors has been characterized in detail, the ensuing complex process that leads to the fusion between the lipid bilayers remains mostly obscure. In the present study, we identified and characterized cell lines with a defect in the Sendai virus-mediated membrane fusion, using fusion-mediated delivery of fragment A of diphtheria toxin as an index. These cells, persistently infected with the temperature-sensitive variant Sendai virus, had primary viral receptors indistinguishable in number and affinity from those of parental susceptible cells. However, they proved to be thoroughly defective in the Sendai virus-mediated membrane fusion. We also found that viral HN protein expressed in the defective cells was responsible for the interference with membrane fusion. These results suggested the presence of a previously uncharacterized, HN-dependent intermediate stage in the Sendai virus-mediated membrane fusion.

Abstract
Fusion between membranes of Sendai virus and liposomes or human erythrocytes ghosts was studied using an assay for lipid mixing based on the relief of self-quenching of octadecylrhodamine (R18) fluorescence. We considered only viral fusion that reflects the biological activity of the viral spike glycoproteins. The liposomes were made of phosphatidylcholine, and the effects of including cholesterol, the sialoglycolipid GD1a, and/or the sialoglycoprotein glycophorin as receptors were tested. Binding of Sendai virus to those liposomes at 37 degrees C was very weak. Fusion with the erythrocyte membranes occurred at a 30-fold faster rate than with the liposomes. Experiments with biological and liposomal targets of different size indicated that size did not account for differences in fusion efficiency.

Abstract
Previous work has shown that high-speed centrifugation (300,000 g) of Sendai virus and liposomes in 40% (w/v) sucrose layered under a discontinuous sucrose gradient removes Sendai virus bound to liposomes containing the ganglioside GD1a, a Sendai virus receptor. Centrifugation also removes virus bound to liposomes containing other negatively charged lipids. This work shows that centrifugation of virus through a discontinuous ficoll gradient does not remove virus bound to liposomes containing GD1a but does remove virus from liposomes containing various other negatively charged lipids including the ganglioside GM1, which is not a Sendai virus receptor. The amount of virus that adheres to liposomes increases with increasing content of GD1a in the liposomes. The adhesion of virus to receptor-containing liposomes during centrifugation through a ficoll gradient results from the presence of ficoll and increases with increasing ficoll concentration. Virus also adheres to receptor-containing liposomes during centrifugation in the presence of dextran. These data indicate that caution should be used in interpreting associations demonstrated by centrifugation through dextran and ficoll gradients. They also indicate that binding of virus by ganglioside receptors can be modulated by carbohydrate polymers, which are thought not to have any specific interaction with either viruses or gangliosides.

Abstract
The American Burkitt's lymphoma cell line Loukes was cotransfected with cloned BamHI K fragment of EBV DNA and a vector pSV2neo. Reconstituted Sendai virus envelopes (RSVE) loaded with DNA were used for efficient gene transfer. Two cell lines have been obtained following culture in the presence of geneticin sulfate (G-418). Messenger RNA from both transfected DNAs was expressed during the whole period of observation, 42 days after transfection. This method provides a relatively simple and efficient means for selection of lymphoblastoid cells expressing a transfected gene.

Abstract
A kinetic and quantitative analysis of the binding and fusion of Sendai virus with erythrocyte membranes was performed by using a membrane fusion assay based on the relief of fluorescence self-quenching. At 37 degrees C, the process of virus association displayed a half time of 2.5 min; at 4 degrees C, the half time was 3.0 min. The fraction of the viral dose which became cell associated was independent of the incubation temperature and increased with increasing target membrane concentration. On the average, one erythrocyte ghost can accommodate ca. 1,200 Sendai virus particles. The stability of viral attachment was sensitive to a shift in temperature: a fraction of the virions (ca. 30%), attached at 4 degrees C, rapidly (half time, ca. 2.5 min) eluted from the cell surface at 37 degrees C, irrespective of the presence of free virus in the medium. The elution can be attributed to a spontaneous, temperature-induced release, rather than to viral neuraminidase activity. Competition experiments with nonlabeled virus revealed that viruses destined to fuse do not exchange with free particles in the medium but rather bind in a rapid and irreversible manner. The fusion rate of Sendai virus was affected by the density of the virus particles on the cell surface and became restrained when more than 170 virus particles were attached per ghost. In principle, all virus particles added displayed fusion activity. However, at high virus-to-ghost ratios, only a fraction actually fused, indicating that a limited number of fusion sites exist on the erythrocyte membrane. We estimate that ca. 180 virus particles maximally can fuse with one erythrocyte ghost.

Abstract
The interactions of carbohydrate-modified phospholipid vesicles with various isolated cell types in vitro have been studied to establish a better basis for understanding the mechanisms for recognition and transport of such modified vesicles in vivo. The physical basis for the use of perturbed angular correlation spectroscopy for the measurement of phospholipid vesicle integrity, and the kinetics of uptake of modified phospholipid vesicles by mouse peritoneal macrophage are first reviewed. The effects of variation of the chemical structure of the determinant and other factors indicate that the rate of uptake of cationic vesicles by mouse peritoneal macrophage is directly related to the distance that an amine group can be extended beyond the vesicle surface, and not, for example, to the stereochemistry of the carbohydrate determinant. The uptake mechanism appears to involve generalized phagocytosis and not a receptor-mediated mechanism, or an opsonization process that is not stereospecific.

Abstract
Anti-Sendai virus antibodies were covalently coupled to neuraminidase-treated human erythrocytes by the use of the bifunctional crosslinking reagents, N-succinimidyl-3-(2-pyridyldithio)propionate or succinimidyl-4-(p-maleimidophenyl)butyrate. Neuraminidase-treated erythrocytes bearing antibodies were able to bind Sendai virus particles, while treated erythrocytes lacking the antibodies failed to do so. Virus particles attached to erythrocyte membranes via the antibodies were able to cause hemolysis (virus-cell fusion) and promoted cell-cell fusion. Similar results were obtained when the antibodies were coupled to cat erythrocytes which lack receptors for Sendai virus particles. Reconstituted Sendai virus envelopes, similar to intact virus particles, were able to hemolyze and to induce fusion of neuraminidase-treated antibody-bearing erythrocytes. However, reconstituted envelopes containing inactive HN (hemagglutinin-neuraminidase) but active F (fusion) glycoproteins, despite attachment to antibody-bearing erythrocytes, failed to hemolyze or to induce cell-to-cell fusion. Fusion could be restored by insertion of an active HN glycoprotein into the membranes of the reconstituted envelopes. These results suggest that the HN glycoprotein, besides being the viral attachment protein, also participates in the membrane fusion process.

Abstract
Specific gangliosides GD1a, GT1b and GQ1b isolated from brain have been shown to function as receptors for Sendai virus by conferring susceptibility to infection when they are incorporated into receptor-deficient cells (Markwell, M.A.K., Svennerholm, L. and Paulson, J.C. (1981) Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci. USA 78, 5406-5410). The endogenous gangliosides of three commonly used hosts for Sendai virus: MDBK, HeLa, and MDCK cells were analyzed to determine the amount and type of receptor gangliosides present. In all three cell lines, GM3 was the major ganglioside component. The presence of GM1, GD1a and the more complex homologs of the gangliotetraose series was also established. In cell lines derived from normal tissue, MDBK and MDCK cells, gangliosides contributed 47-65% of the total sialic acid. In HeLa cells, gangliosides contributed substantially less (17% of the total sialic acid). The ganglioside content of each cell line was shown not to be immutable but instead to depend on the state of differentiation, passage number, and surface the cells were grown on. Thus, the ganglioside concentration of undifferentiated MDCK cells was found to be substantially greater than that of MDBK or HeLa cells, but decreased as the MDCK cells underwent differentiation. Changes in culture conditions that were shown to decrease the receptor ganglioside content of the cells resulted in a corresponding decrease in susceptibility to infection. The endogenous oligosialogangliosides present in susceptible host cells were shown to function as receptors for Sendai virus.

Abstract
A method for the binding of virus to a silica gel thin-layer chromatogram is presented. After development the chromatogram is overlayed with the 125I-labelled virus and the bound virus is autoradiographed. Alternatively, the unlabelled virus may be detected after exposure to monoclonal antibody and labelled anti-antibody. The Sendai virus strain used did not bind to brain gangliosides earlier proposed to be receptors, but bound to human erythrocyte gangliosides. This finding may be explained by the existence of Sendai virus variants with different receptor specificities.

Abstract
Trypsinization of human peripheral blood leukocytes was found to have no effect on Sendai virus adsorption or on interferon induction by the virus. alpha-Chymotrypsin and papain also did not affect interferon induction, although the three proteases did remove part of the leukocyte surface material. In contrast, treatment of leukocytes with neuraminidase reduced virus adsorption and thoroughly abolished interferon induction. We conclude that protease-resistant structures on leukocyte surfaces serve as the receptor of Sendai virus for the induction of interferon.

Abstract
Gangliosides were previously reported to induce neuritogenesis in primary neuronal cultures and in some neurally derived cell lines. Because isolated gangliosides usually contain variable quantities of peptides, we investigated the possibility that neurite-stimulating activity could be caused by these contaminants. Ganglioside preparations from bovine brain and other sources were subjected to a three-step purification procedure that eliminated at least 95% of the contaminating peptides. These purified preparations retained their capacity to induce extensive neurite growth in neuro-2A murine neuroblastoma. Proteolytic digestion and a number of additional procedures were used to reduce residual contamination further without loss of activity. Several crude ganglioside samples had negative effects on neurite development until freed of their inhibitory factors, which were derived from the tissue and/or introduced during laboratory operations. This was particularly evident for bovine white matter gangliosides whose activity increased in proportion to peptide removal. When carefully purified, virtually all of 11 different gangliosides tested were highly active, with the possible exception of GM4, which demonstrated only moderate activity in a limited number of tests. All of the neutral glycolipids tested, as well as sulfatides and free sialic acid, were inactive.

Abstract
Liposomes were reconstituted from phosphatidylcholine and Sendai virus glycoproteins HN or F and their interaction with mouse spleen cells was studied. Both the HN and F liposomes were able to stimulate chemiluminescence (CL), indicating that the glycoproteins were able to interact with the cell membrane independently of each other. The induction of CL in cells which had been pretreated with liposomes by monoclonal antibodies to either HN or F demonstrated that HN and F bind to the cells independently. The presence of F liposomes on the cell surface was also confirmed by immunoelectron microscopy. Cells pretreated with HN and F liposomes revealed a different pattern of CL when challenged with intact virus or the calcium ionophore A23187 indicating that HN and F bind to different receptor sites.

Abstract
Two monospecific human antibodies (anti-OFA-I-1 and anti-OFA-I-2) produced in vitro by lymphoblast cell lines originating from melanoma patients have been shown previously to recognize cell surface antigens (OFA-I-1 and OFA-I-2) on human tumors and fetal brain: OFA-I-1 is expressed on a variety of human tumors, while OFA-I-2 has been detected only on tumors of neuroectodermal origin. Evidence presented in this report suggests that the two antigens expressed by a cultured human melanoma cell line (M14) are chemically distinct and that OFA-I-2 is a cell surface glycolipid, ganglioside GD2: GalNAc beta 1 leads to 4 NeuAc alpha 2 leads to 8NeuAc alpha 2 leads to 3 Gal beta 1 leads to 4Glc-ceramide.

Abstract
The ganglioside composition of Ehrlich ascites carcinoma (EAC) cells and the role of the individual gangliosides in binding and penetration into the cell of influenza virus were determined. EAC gangliosides identical with or close to GM3, GM2, GM1, GT1a and GT1b were characterized by thin-layer chromarography, compositional analyses, methylation analysis and mass-spectrometry. The ganglioside uptake capacity of native and neuraminidase-treated EAC cells was studied with tritium-labeled gangliosides of definite structure and the binding of influenza virus to cells was determinated by using [3H]uridine-labeled virus and by hemagglutination studies. Treatment of the cells with Vibrio cholerae neuraminidase largely decreased binding of the virus. Exogenous gangliosides with a terminal galactose unit or a penultimate galactose masked by neuraminic acid were able to restore the virus-binding capacity of neuraminidase-treated cells, however, the main ganglioside of EAC cells, GM2, which carbohydrate chain is terminated by N-acetylgalactosamine, was completely ineffective. The common carbohydrate sequence of the gangliosides showing binding activity (formula; see text) is proposed to be the main recognition structure of the influenza virus receptor on the surface of EAC cells. Penetration of labeled influenza virus into the nuclei of EAC cells was evaluated by measuring the radioactivity of the nuclei of neuraminidase-treated ganglioside-loaded cells after exposition to the labeled virus. Of all gangliosides tested only trisialogangliosides of the GT1b type were able to induce increased entry of the virus into the cells and accumulation of its radioactive component into the nuclei. It is suggested that GT1b gangliosides react specifically with the virus protein responsible for membrane fusion (apparently the hemagglutinin HA2 subunit) and thus are involved in virus penetration and delivery of the virus genome to the nuclei.

Abstract
Concanavalin A and wheat germ agglutinin are capable of preventing a productive peripheral infection of dissociated rat sensory neurons in culture by herpes simplex virus type 1. Concanavalin A binds to the herpes simplex virion, rendering it inactive, whereas wheat germ agglutinin binds to the peripheral neuritic extensions of the sensory neurons, rendering them incapable of initiating a productive viral infection. This latter effect (i) seems to be specific for wheat germ agglutinin since other lectins have no effect, (ii) is not the result of cellular cytotoxicity, (iii) is dependent on an N-acetylneuraminic acid moiety, and (iv) may be due either to viral receptor site masking or to binding of wheat germ agglutinin to the neuritic receptor molecule for herpes simplex virus.

Abstract
The ability of specific gangliosides to function as host cell receptors for Sendai virus was investigated by using Madin-Darby bovine kidney cells which become resistant to infection upon treatment with Vibrio cholerae sialidase. Sialidase-treated cells were incubated for 20 min at 37 degrees C with individual, highly purified gangliosides containing homogeneous carbohydrate moieties and then inoculated with virus for 10 min. Susceptibility of the cells to infection was monitored by hemagglutination titer of the virus produced 48 hr after inoculation. Incubation of the cells with gangliosides containing the sequence NeuAc alpha 2,3Gal beta 1,3GalNAc (i.e., GD1a, GT1b, and GQ1b) fully restored susceptibility to infection to the cells. However, the ganglioside GQ1b in which the sequence ends with two sialic acids in a NeuAc alpha 2,8NeuAc linkage instead of a single sialic acid as in GD1a and GT1b, was effective as a receptor at a concentration 1/100th that of any of the other gangliosides tested. Incubation with gangliosides similar in structure to GD1a, GT1b, and GQ1b but lacking the sialic acid attached to the terminal galactose (i.e., GM1 and GD1b) had no effect. The results from control experiments in which gangliosides were incubated at 0 degrees C with cells or in which trypsin was used to remove gangliosides adsorbed to cells were consistent with the premise that the gangliosides must actually insert into the cellular membrane to function as Sendai virus receptors. Addition of 4 X 10(6) molecules of 14C-labeled GD1a per cell made the cells fully susceptible to infection. Analysis of the ganglioside content of cell membranes showed that gangliosides GD1a, GT1b, and GQ1b are natural components of these cells and are present in quantities sufficient to act as receptors. These results demonstrate that gangliosides with the proper carbohydrate sequence, such as GD1a, GT1b, and GQ1b, function as natural receptors for Sendai virus in host cells.

Abstract
Purified sialyltransferases (CMP-N-acetyl-neuraminate:D-galactosyl-glycoprotein N-acetylneuraminyl-transferase, EC 2.4.99.1) in conjunction with neuraminidase (acylneuraminyl hydrolase, EC 3.2.1.18) were used to produce cell surface sialyloligosaccharides of defined sequence to investigate their role in paramyxovirus infection of host cells. Infection of Madin-Darby bovine kidney cells by Sendai virus was monitored by hemagglutination titer of the virus produced and by changes in morphological characteristics. By either criterion, treatment of the cells with Vibrio cholerae neuraminidase to remove cell surface sialic acids rendered them resistant to infection by Sendai virus. Endogenous replacement of receptors by the cell occurred slowly but supported maximal levels of infection within 6 hr. In contrast, sialylation during a 20-min incubation with CMP-sialic acid and beta-galactoside alpha 2,3-sialytransferase restored full susceptibility to infection. This enzyme elaborates the NeuAc alpha 2,3Gal beta 1,3GalNAc (NeuAc, N-acetylneuraminic acid) sequence on glycoproteins and glycolipids. No restoration of infectivity was observed when neuraminidase-treated cells were sialylated by using beta-galactoside alpha 2,6-sialytransferase, which elaborates the NeuAc-alpha 2,6Gal beta 1,4GlcNAc sequence. These results suggest that sialyloligosaccharide receptor determinants of defined sequence are required for Sendai virus infection of host cells.

Abstract
The hemagglutinin (HA) and neuraminidase (NA) of influenza viruses, as well as the fusion protein (F) and hemagglutinin-neuraminidase (HN) of paramyxoviruses, have been separated in native form using a two-step procedure. The glycoproteins are efficiently extracted from virions using the on-ionic detergent octyl-beta-D-glucoside and are then applied to a column of agarose beads coupled with tyrosine-sulfanilic acid. Pure HA and F are obtained in good yield in the flow-through from this column. NA and HN bind strongly and can be eluted, albeit somewhat contaminated with HA or F, by raising the pH of the column buffer. The separated non-denatured fractions can be used for structural, functional, and antigenic studies.
