3 Endogenous Retroviruses 1. Remnants of germ line infections by exogenous (infectious) retroviruses. 2. Became fixed in the host species.some confer protection against future infections by the same or similar viruses. A few others have salutary effects. 3. Inherited like normal genes. 4. Present in every vertebrate and many invertebrates. 5. Comprise 6-8% of the human genome. (More viruses than us).
4 Endogenous Retroviruses 6. Provide a fossil record of pathogen-host interaction unavailable in any other system. 7. Can participate in evolutionary processes as well as inform us about them. 8. Involved in disease in some animals. Humans?
5 XMRV 1. First described about 5 years ago in a few patients with prostate cancer. 2. Within the last year: Reported in 25% of prostate cancer biopsies. Reported in 67% of chronic fatigue syndrome patients. Reported in 4% of normal controls in both studies. Not always found in studies from other labs on samples from either disease. 3. Isolates from the 2 diseases at different times and locations are almost identical to one another. 4. Causality, prevalence, and distribution remain to be established. 5. Very closely related to endogenous xenotropic (X) MLV. 6. Recently, Lo et al (PNAS) reported also finding MLV-like (PMV and MPMV related) virus sequences associated with CFS.
6 Gammaretroviruses 1. Simple retroviruses (only gag, pol, and env genes). 2. Widespread in nature, with isolates from mammals (mice, cats, primates, koalas and others), birds, and reptiles. 3. Readily give rise to endogenous proviruses. 4. Most commonly transmitted vertically (mother to offspring). 5. Cause a wide variety of diseases (cancer, neurological, degenerative, immunodeficiency). 6. Cancer is usually the result of insertional inactivation of protooncogenes. 7. Infection is lifelong, with persistence of infected cells established early, andunlike HIV, very few replication cycles per host.
7 Xenotropic MLV 1. Inherited as endogenous proviruses (ca copies) in all inbred mice. 2. Many more proviruses in some wild Mus Musculus subspecies. 3. Some proviruses (e.g., Bxv1-XMV43) are intact and infectious. 4. Can infect virtually all mammals, except some species of Mus, due to receptor (Xpr1) polymorphism. 5. Not directly pathogenic in mice (due to lack of receptor), but LTR is often found in oncogenic recombinant MLVs. 6. Pathogenicity in other species is unknown. 7. Common contaminant of human tumor cell lines due to passage through nude mice (which have Bxv1). 8. Closely related to XMRV, but none is identical, perhaps excluding inbred mice as the origin. 9. Related MLVs cause a wide variety of diseases (malignant, immunodeficiency, neurological) in mice.
8 Polytropic and Modified Polytropic MLV 1. Inherited as endogenous proviruses (ca copies each) in all inbred mice. 2. Also found in wild Mus Musculus subspecies. 3. No infectious virus has been found to date. 4. Can infect virtually all mammals, using both forms of the Xpr1 Receptor. 5. Not directly pathogenic in mice (due to lack of infectivity?), but env gene is often found in oncogenic recombinant MLVs. 6. Pathogenicity in other species is unknown. 7. Both types derived independently from XMV, probably in response to Xpr1 mutation. 8. Unlike XMV, PMV and MPMV proviruses have suffered significant mutations mediated by mouse APOBEC3.

16 Oncogenesis by Endogenous MLV 1. In AKR and some other inbred strains, most mice die within a year of thymic lymphoma. 2. The proximal cause is integration adjacent to one or more protooncogenes (c-myc, pim-1, and others) of a provirus derived from endogenous MLV. 3. Around the time of birth all mice express a replicating ecotropic virus (AKV). 4. A complex, but highly reproducible series of events leads to the formation of a recombinant virus containing a polytropic env gene and an LTR derived from bxv1 and modified by enhancer duplication.

23 XMRV vs MLV-Like 1. XMRV (Urisman et al, Lombardi et al, others): 1. Isolated as infectious virus from Prostate Cancer, CFS patients. 2. Isolates are very similar in sequence. 3. They form a distinct subclade among XMV proviruses. 2. MLV-like sequences (Lo et al) 1. PCR amplified using MLV gag and env primers. 2. Found preferentially in CFS plasma. 3. No infectious virus yet identified. 4. Only fragmentary, bulk, sequences available at present. 3. Until the relationship between the two is further clarified, it is important to consider these to be distinct, unrelated phenomena.
24 Why I Don t Sleep Well at Night 1. We can be optimistic that XMRV will turn out to be important in the etiology of CFS and prostate cancer, but the case is not yet proven: 1. Conflicting reports on the association of either disease with the virus 2. Lack of insight into pathogenic mechanisms 2. Studies can be complicated by minute traces of mouse DNA or by viruses derived from lab strain mice. 3. One mouse cell contains over 100 PMV and XMV proviruses. Sensitive PCR assays can detect the provirus in 10 fg of mouse DNA. 4. It s well known that xenotropic MLVs derived from nude mice have inadvertently spread through many labs. 5. While the major XMRV studies published to date appear to be well controlled for these problems, extraordinary caution is necessary.
25 Why I Don t Sleep Well at Night 6. In subsequent talks, my colleagues from Tufts and the NCI will present our efforts to deal with this problem: 1. Mouse origin of XMRV and a sensitive assay for contamination (Cingöz) 2. Environmental contamination with mouse DNA (Huber) 3. Sensitive assays for XMRV and endogenous MLVs (Kearney)

28 XMRV, CFS, and Antivirals 1. Like other MLVs, XMRV is sensitive to inhibition by a few antiretrovirals licensed to treat HIV infection. 2. A survey of the blogs indicates that there may be significant off-label use of some of these compounds in CFS patients, with anecdotal results posted. 3. While there could be value in well-controlled randomized trials of these agents, we should all oppose uncontrolled dosing of patients with antivirals: 1. We do not know for sure that the virus is causal. 2. The drugs can only work by blocking replication cycles, not reparing damage already coused by virus replication. 3. The disease lacks objective biomarkers to monitor treatment. 4. There is no good assay to monitor effects on virus replication. 5. Results of such studies will never be accepted by third-party payers or regulators, keeping the treatment out of reach of the large majority of thosse suffering from CFS.
