Gene expression profile induced by two different variants of street rabies virus in mice

ABSTRACT: It is well established that the pathogenicity and pathology of rabies virus (RABV) varies according to the variant, but the exact mechanism for this is still not completely known. In this study, the gene expression profile in brains of mice infected with virus isolated from a human case of dog rabies (V2) or vampire bat-acquired rabies (V3) were analyzed in experimental condition. In total, 138 array probes associated with 120 genes were differentially expressed between mice inoculated with V2 and the control mice at day 10 post-inoculation. A single probe corresponding to an unannotated gene was identified in V3 versus control mice. Gene ontology (GO) analysis revealed that all of the genes up-regulated in mice inoculated with V2 were involved in the biological process of immune defense
