Interferon gamma (IFN{gamma}) represents an essential cytokine involved in murine cytomegalovirus (MCMV) clearance from the salivary gland and the control of horizontal transmission. Because IFN{gamma} cannot be responsible for all cytokine effects during recovery from MCMV infection we have now tested the potential participation of tumour necrosis factor alpha (TNF{alpha}) in the antiviral defence. Neutralization of endogenous TNF{alpha} abolished the antiviral activity of CD4 T cells in immunocompetent as well as in CD8 subset-deficient mice. These data suggest that the antiviral effect of the CD4 subset requires the presence of at least two cytokines, namely IFN{gamma} and TNF{alpha}. Depletion of endogenous TNF{alpha} in adoptive cell transfer recipients diminished the antiviral function of CD8 T lymphocytes suggesting that TNF{alpha} also participates in CD8 T cell effector functions. Furthermore, endogenous cytokines were found to be required for survival after infection with lethal doses of MCMV, whereas immunotherapy with recombinant TNF{alpha} and IFN{gamma} could not limit virus replication in vivo. The results suggest that, similar to IFN{gamma}, TNF{alpha} is an integral part of the protective mechanisms involved in cytomegalovirus clearance.
