abstract = {Bovine foamy virus (BFVbta) displays a very high degree of
cell-associated replication which is unprecedented even
among the other known foamy viruses. Interestingly, recent
studies have shown that it can in fact adapt in vitro to
high-titer (HT) cell-free transmission due to genetic
changes acquired during repeated rounds of cell-free BFVbta
passages in immortalized bovine MDBK cells. Molecular clones
obtained from the HT BFVbta Riems cell-free variant (HT
BFVbta Riems) have been thoroughly characterized in MDBK
cell cultures However, during recent years, it has become
increasingly clear that the source of the host cells used
for virus growth and functional studies of virus replication
and virus-cell interactions plays a paramount role.
Established cell lines, mostly derived from tumors, but
occasionally experimentally immortalized and transformed,
frequently display aberrant features relating, for example.
to growth, metabolism, and genetics. Even state-of-the-art
organoid cultures of primary cells cannot replicate the
conditions in an authentic host, especially those concerning
cell diversity and the role of innate and adaptive immunity.
Therefore, to determine the overall replication
characteristics of the cloned wt and HT BFVbta Riems
variant, we conducted a small-scale animal pilot study. The
replication of the original wt BFVbta Riems isolate, as well
as that of its HT variant, were analyzed. Both BFVbta
variants established infection in calves, with proviruses in
peripheral blood mononuclear cells and induced Gag-specific
antibodies. In addition, a related pattern in the host
innate immune reaction was detected in the peripheral blood
leukocytes of the BFV-infected calves. Surprisingly, an
analysis of the Gag sequence two weeks post-inoculation
revealed that the HT BFVbta variant showed a very high level
of genetic reversion to the wild type (parental BFVbta
genotype).},
