The mechanisms were investigated of haematopoietic progenitor growth inhibition, observed after in vitro infection of cord blood mononuclear cells (CBMNC) by a clinical isolate of dengue 3 (29-56DSS). The level of virus replication was not different when CBMNC were inoculated with 29-56DSS compared with a prototype strain of dengue 3 (H-87) which had no inhibitory effect. An inhibitory effect was also observed when cell- free and heat-inactivated supernatants from 29-56DSS cultures, but not from H-87 cultures, were added to cultures of normal CBMNC, suggesting an indirect mechanism via the release of soluble suppressive factor(s). Macrophage inflammatory protein-1alpha (MIP-1alpha) was detected at a significantly higher level in 29-56DSS cultures than in controls. Blocking experiments with anti-MIP-1alpha antibody demonstrated that the inhibitory effect was related at least partly to high MIP-1alpha levels. To our knowledge, this is the first report suggesting an indirect effect of dengue infection on haematopoiesis mediated by a suppressive cytokine.
