Modulation of cellular macromolecular synthesis by coronavirus: implication for pathogenesis

J Virol. 1994 Oct;68(10):6815-9. doi: 10.1128/JVI.68.10.6815-6819.1994.

Abstract

Infection with the murine coronavirus strain JHM decreases cell surface expression of major histocompatibility complex class I antigens. Northern blots showed that JHM virus infection rapidly reduced the level of actin mRNA, whereas the levels of major histocompatibility complex class I and tubulin mRNAs were reduced only slightly. By contrast, the mRNA levels of interleukin 1 beta, colony-stimulating factor 1 receptor, and tumor necrosis factor alpha increased following infection.
