摘要

Mutations of the methyl CpG binding protein 2 (MeCP2) gene are a major cause of Rett syndrome. To investigate whether the expression of this gene was related to JC virus (JCV) infection, we examined brains of four progressive multifocal leukoencephalopathy (PML) patients. JCV infection was confirmed by immunohistochemical labeling with antibodies against JCV VP1, agnoprotein and large T antigen. MeCP2 expression was examined by immunohistochemistry using a specific polyclonal antibody against MeCP2. In normal brains and uninfected cortices of PML brains, MeCP2 expression was observed in the nuclei of neurons, but not observed in glial and endothelial cell nuclei. However, in PML brains intense immunolabeling was observed in abnormally enlarged glial nuclei of JCV-infected cells. Double immunolabeling using antibodies against large T antigen (visualized as blue) and MeCP2 (visualised as red) revealed dark red JCV-infected nuclei, which confirmed that the JCV infected nuclei expressed MeCP2. We conclude that MeCP2 is highly expressed in the JCV-infected nuclei of PML brain and these results may provide a new insight into the mechanism which regulates the MeCP2 expression in glial cells by the infection of JCV.
