(Accepted 3 December 1986) SUMMARY Antigenic relationships among 20 strains of haemorrhagic fever with renal syndrome (HFRS) viruses isolated in Korea, China, U.S.S.R., Finland, Japan and U.S.A. were examined with rat immune sera, patient sera, eight monoclonal antibodies against the SR-11 strain and 10 monoclonal antibodies against the strain. Antigen analyses by indirect immunofluorescent antibody and immune adherence haemagglutination tests using polyclonal and monoclonal antibodies demonstrated that HRFS viruses may be divided into four serotypes, i.e. Apodemus (Type 1), Rattus (Type 2), Clethrionomys (Type 3) and Microtus (Type 4). Further, it was demonstrated that Type 1 could be divided into three subtypes and Type 3 into two subtypes. The two sets of monoclonal antibodies were useful for identification of the antigenic types of viruses isolated from patients in endemic areas. INTRODUCTION Haemorrhagic fever with renal syndrome (HFRS) viruses are widely distributed among various rodent species in the Eurasian continent, Japan, the Americas and Africa. Scandinavia, U.S.S.R., China and Korea are endemic areas of clinical human HFRS. In 1978, the causative virus of Korean haemorrhagic fever (KHF), Hantaan virus , was isolated from Apodemus agrarius (Lee et al., 1978). In Japan, since 1975 there have been a number of instances of HFRS associated with laboratory rats and in 1982 we isolated the aetiological viruses, named SR-11 and SR-14, from lung specimens of experimental rats associated with an outbreak of HFRS in Sapporo by direct inoculation onto Vero-E6 cells (Kitamura et al., 1983). Other isolations of HFRS virus or HFRS-related virus have been reported (Yamanishi et al., 1983; Yanagihara et al., 1984; Sugiyama et al., 1984 c; Arikawa et al., 1985). Recently, HFRS virus has been shown to be a member of the family Bunyaviridae (Schmaljohn & Dalrymple, 1983 : Schmaljohn et al., 1985). The main hosts of HFRS viruses in endemic areas of China and Korea have been shown to be species of the genera Apodemus and Rattus, and those of nephropathia epidemica (NE) virus in Scandinavia and HFRS in the European part of the U.S.S.R. belong to the species Clethrionomys glareolus. Although the clinical manifestations of NE are quite mild, those of HFRS in Korea and China are severe, and those of HFRS in the European part of the U.S.S.R. may be described as intermediate. These differences may depend on the pathogenic properties of the different viruses and it is presumed that the characteristics of the HFRS viruses in European regions are different from those of the HFRS viruses in the Far East. The serological relationships of KHF to NE viruses (Svedmyr et al., 1979, 1980; Lee et al., 1979a), and to HFRS virus in Japan (Lee et al, 1979 b) and China (Lee et al., 1980), have been compared.

Studies on the serotyping of HFRS viruses have been reported by Goldgaber et al. (1985) and Lee et al. (1985 b). We have developed an immune adherence haemagglutination (IAHA) test for the detection of HFRS virus antigen and antibody (Sugiyama et al., 1984b), and demonstrated that it discriminates Rattus virus strains from the Apodemus strain (Sugiyama et al., 1984a). In the present study, further serological analyses of 20 representative strains of HFRS virus isolated in Korea, China, Japan, the U.S.S.R., Finland and the U.S.A. from different rodent species were carried out using polyclonal and monoclonal antibodies to clarify the antigenic relationships of HFRS viruses. METHODS Virus strains. Twenty strains of HFRS virus were used. Strains , , and were isolated in Korea (Lee et al., 1978; Schmaljohn et al., 1985), A9, Chen, R22 in China (Song et al., 1982a, b), 23328, 4590, 4605, CG-1820, 5302, CG38-83 and CLS 1/452 in the U.S.S.R. (Tkachenko et al., 1984), Sotkamo in Finland (Brummer- Korvenkontio et al., 1980; Schmaljohn et al., 1985), SR-11 (Kitamura et al, 1983) and TR-352 (Sugiyama et al., 1984c) in Japan, and Tchoupitoulas (TP) (Tsai et al., 1985), Girard Point (GP) (LeDuc et al., 1984) and Prospect Hill-I (PH-I) (Lee et al., 1985a) in the U.S.A. Their rodent hosts, isolation sites and epidemiological backgrounds are summarized in Table 1. We greatly appreciate the provision of the Korean, CLS 1/452 and Sotkamo strains by Dr H. W. Lee (Korea University, College of Medicine, Seoul, South Korea), the Chinese strains by Dr Song Gan (China National Center for Preventive Medicine, Beijing, China), the TP strain by Dr J. B. McCormick (CDC, Atlanta, Ga., U.S.A.), the GP strain by Dr K. M. Johnson (USAMRIID, Frederick, Md., U.S.A.), the PH-I strain by Dr D. C. Gajdusek (NIH, Bethesda, Md., U.S.A.) and the CG38-83 strain by Dr G. van der Groen (PLITM, Antwerp, Belgium). All these strains were propagated in Veto-E6 ceils in Eagle's MEM supplemented with 2~ foetal bovine serum. Rat immune sera and HFRSpatient sera. Eight-week-old female Wistar rats (specific pathogen-free) were used for immunization against the SR-11 and strains and 3-week-old female Wistar rats (specific pathogen-free) were used for the other 18 strains. Virus preparations propagated in Vero-E6 cells were inoculated subcutaneously and sera were isolated by bleeding 4 weeks after virus inoculation. Two convalescent sera from human HFRS cases in the European and far-eastern regions of the U.S.S.R. were examined. Serological tests. The immune fluorescent antibody (IFA) test was used (Kitamura et al., 1983). Fluorescein isothiocyanate conjugates of antibodies to human IgG, IgM and IgA (Hyland Laboratories, Deerfield, IU., U.S.A.), rat IgG and mouse IgG, IgM and IgA (Cappel Laboratories) were used. IAHA tests were carried out in
3 Serotyping of HFRS viruses 981 U-bottomed polystyrene microplates by methods described previously (Inouye et al., 1981; Sugiyama et al., 1984b). All reagents were diluted with veronal-buffered NaCI (ph 7.3) with Ca 2+, Mg 2, 0.1 ~ bovine serum albumin, 0.002~ gelatin, and 0.02~ NAN3. Aliquots (25 ktl) of antigen and antibody were incubated at room temperature (25 C) for 1 h; 25 ktl of diluted (1 : 100) fresh guinea-pig serum was then added. After incubation at 37 C for 40 min, 25 ~tl of dithiothreitol (3 mg/ml) and 50 ~tl of 0.4~ type O human erythrocyte suspension were added. The HA pattern was read after incubation at room temperature for 2 h or more. For both serological tests master-diluted sera were distributed to antigen slides or microplates. In comparative titrations, sera were titrated against homologous antigens to check the efficiency of antigenic materials and sera in every test. Back titration of the antigens used in the IAHA tests was carried out routinely in each test. In both tests, standard sera showed reproducible titres. Production ofhybridoma cell lines. BALB/c mice were immunized by intr aperitoneal injection of 1.0 ml of culture fluid of Vero-E6 cells infected with the SR- 11 or strain emulsified in the same volume of Freund's complete adjuvant. A booster inoculation was given intravenously 4 weeks later with the same material without adjuvant, and the mice were sacrificed 3 days after the second injection. Spleen cells were fused with SP2/O-Ag-14 myeloma cells as described by KShler & Milstein (1975) and modified by Oi & Herzenberg (1980). After cultivation for 7 to 14 days, culture fluids were screened for antibody by IFA using E6 cells infected with the homologous strain. Antibody-positive hybridoma cell lines were subjected to two cycles of cloning by limiting dilution. After propagation of the hybridoma cells, they were finally inoculated intraperitoneally into pristane-primed BALB/c mice. Ascitic fluid was collected 2 to 4 weeks later. The isotype of the antibody was determined by testing a 10-fold concentrate of hybridoma culture fluid by immunodiffusion against a set of rabbit antisera against mouse immunoglobulin (Nordic Immunological Laboratories, Tilburg, The Netherlands). RESULTS Cross IFA test using rat immune sera and patient sera Fifteen rat immune sera against HFRS virus strains, a convalescent serum from an HFRS patient in the European part of the U.S.S.R. (Bashkiria) and a convalescent serum from an HFRS patient in the far-eastern U.S.S.R. were tested against 20 strains by the IFA test (Table 2). Immune sera against the CG38-83 or CLS 1/452 strains were cross-reactive with the rat and Apodemus strains, but not against the Sotkamo or PH-I strains. However, convalescent serum from a case in the European part of the U.S.S.R., and the anti-sotkamo and PH-I sera were cross-reactive with the CG-1820, Sotkamo, PH-I and 5302 strains, but were clearly less crossreactive against the Apodemus, rat, CG38-83 and CLS 1/452 strains. IFA tests indicated that the CG-1820, Sotkamo, 5302 and PH-I strains were distinct from the Apodemus, rat, CG38-83 and CLS 1/452 strains. These results suggested that there are two subtypes of Clethrionomys-borne HFRS virus in Europe, i.e. CG38-83 and CLS 1/452 form one type, and CG-1820 and Sotkamo another. Serological relationships between the Microtus strains and the CG-1820 and Sotkamo strains were virtually identical by cross IFA tests. Cross IAHA test Rat sera against the and Chen strains reacted with Apodemus strains eight- to 32-fold more than with the rat strains, and anti-a9 rat serum also reacted with the Apodemus strains fourfold more than with the rat strains (Table 3). Anti and rat sera, however, were reactive with the rat strains at the same level. There was a close antigenic relationship between the CG38-83 and strains, and some antigenic difference between the CG38-83 and CLS 1/452 strains. The IAHA test indicated that there are two subtypes among the Apodemus strains, i.e. one formed by the , Chen and A9 strains and the other by the and strains. Further, antigenic differences between the Microtus strains and the Clethrionomys strains were revealed by this test. Cross IFA test using monoclonal antibodies against SR-11 Eight monoclonal antibodies against the SR-11 strain were tested against 20 strains by an IFA test (Table 4). The reaction patterns of two Chinese strains, A9 and Chen isolated from A. agrarius and a human patient, respectively, and two Russian strains, and 4605 also isolated from Apodemus and a patient, respectively, were similar to that of the strain. The Korean strains and were slightly different from the strain. However, strain

7 Serotyping of HFRS viruses 985 Table 6. Serotypes of hantaviruses defined by IFA and IAHA tests using polyclonal and monoclonal antibodies Serotype 1 (Apodemus type) Subtype 1 Serotype 2 (Rattus type) Serotype 3 (Clethrionomys type) Serotype 4 (Microtus type) Subtype 2 Subtype 3 Subtype 1 Subtype , A9, (A. agrarius), Chen, 4605 (human) (A. agrarius), (human) 4590 (A. peninsulae) SR-I 1, TR-352, Girard Point, Tchoupitoulas, R22, ( R. norvegicus) CG-1820, Sotkamo (C. glareolus) CG38-83, CLS 1/452 (C. glareolus) PH-I (M. pennsylvanicus), 4590 (M. fortis) 4590 isolated from A. peninsulae showed a quite different pattern and reacted with all eight clones. Thus 4590 was clearly discriminated from other Apodemus strains, suggesting that the strain from A. peninsulae might form a third subtype among Apodemus strains. Strain 4605 isolated from a patient seemed to be antigenically quite similar to strain isolated from A. agrarius, but not to the strain isolated from A. peninsulae. The reaction patterns of the Clethrionomys strains were different from that of Clone D1-5-8 did not react with four Clethrionomys strains. Although there were some differences between strain CG-1820 and Sotkamo, and between CG38-83 and CLS 1/452, clear discrimination of the patterns of the CG-1820 and Sotkamo group from that of the CG38-83 and CLS 1/452 group was possible. The reaction pattern of 5302 isolated from M. fortis in far-eastern U.S.S.R. was exactly similar to that of PH-I isolated from M. pennsylvanicus in the U.S.A., and almost similar to that of strain CG Pattern analysis indicated that the Apodemus strains were of three subtypes, the Clethrionomys strains of two subtypes and the Microtus strains of a single subtype. Cross IFA using monoclonal antibodies against Ten monoclonal antibodies against were also employed (Table 5). The patterns for the Apodemus strains, the human strain isolated in far-eastern U.S.S.R. and were identical to that of , whereas those of , A9 and Chen were different from that of The patterns of A9 and Chen, both isolated in China, were identical. The reaction patterns of CG and Sotkamo and of CG38-83 and CLS 1/452 were relatively common, and those of the former group were clearly different from those of the latter, whereas those of 5302 and PH-I were identical. However, these all could be clearly discriminated from DISCUSSION Serological analysis with polyclonal sera can be used for antigenic classification, and monoclonal antibodies can provide further detailed antigenic analyses. So far, several investigators have proposed that hantavirus isolates can be classified into three (Schmaljohn et al., 1985; Goldgaber et al., 1985) or four (Lee et al., 1985b) serotypes. In the present study, 20 HFRS strains were analysed; the conclusions and proposed antigenic classification are shown in Table 6. These 20 strains were divided into at least four groups, according to their rodent hosts, i.e. Type 1 (Apodemus type), Type 2 (Rattus type), Type 3 (Clethrionomys type) and Type 4 (Microtus type). IFA tests demonstrated that Type 3 can be further divided into two subtypes: subtype 1 (strains CG-1820, Sotkamo) and subtype 2 (strains CG38-83, CLS 1/452). Further analysis using IAHA tests and panels of monoclonal antibodies against SR-11 and demonstrated that Type 1 can be subdivided into three subtypes: subtype 1 (strains , A9, Chert, and 4605), subtype 2 (strains 83-61, ) and subtype 3 (strain 4590). Our conclusion confirms partially the serotypic classification of hantaviruses by Lee et al. (1985b) and the analyses using monoclonal antibodies have provided a more detailed antigenic classification of hantaviruses, especially the U.S.S.R. strains. The analyses indicated that the Clethrionomys and Microtus strains were antigenically distinct from the Apodemus and rat strains. Strain 5302 isolated from M.fortis in the far-eastern U.S.S.R. was quite different to Apodemus strains from the same areas and closer to PH-I isolated from M.
8 986 K. SUGIYAMA AND OTHERS pennsylvanicus in the U.S.A. Rat virus strains isolated in other parts of the world have been found to be antigenically similar. Thus antigenic relationships depend more on the rodent host of origin than the site of isolation. On the other hand, Microtus strains were found to be similar to one of the Clethrionomys subtypes, that including the CG-1820 and Sotkamo strains. Furthermore, virus strains isolated from A. agrarius and A. peninsulae in the far-eastern U.S.S.R. were antigenically different. It is interesting that there are two subtypes of Clethrionomys-borne virus in the European part of the U.S.S.R.; strains CG38-83 and CLS 1/452 were more crossreactive with the Apodemus strains, whereas the CG-1820 strain was clearly less cross-reactive with the Apodemus strains. It is not known whether a mutation occurred in a CG-1820-type virus to extend the host range from Clethrionomys to Apodemus or vice versa. The analysis also indicated that the panels of monoclonal antibodies are useful for determination of the antigenic types of viruses recovered from human patients in endemic areas. Antigenic typing may be important for an understanding of the ecology and evolution of HFRS viruses and for the development of HFRS vaccines and control measures. The authors wish to thank Dr M.
