摘要

A reverse transcription-PCR (RT-PCR) technique was used to detect La Crosse (LAC) virus RNA in the central nervous system (CNS) tissues of two patients who died of LAC encephalitis in 1960 and 1978. Viral RNA was readily detected by RT-PCR although the tissues had been stored frozen for up to 37 years. LAC virus was detected in the cerebral cortex but not in other CNS tissues. RT-PCR allowed detection of replicative forms of the virus, indicating that the virus was actively replicating in the specific CNS tissues. The small (S) RNA segments of the viruses from the CNS samples were demonstrated to be genetically similar by single-strand conformation polymorphism analyses. These S RNA segments were then sequenced; only two base changes were demonstrated between the 1960 and the 1978 samples, suggesting that LAC virus is genetically stable in areas of endemicity. The RT-PCR analyses of analyte directly from CNS tissues allows study of the virus without passage in cell culture.
