T cells are required for coxsackievirus B1 induced murine polymyositis
J Rheumatol.
1988 Mar.
Abstract
Murine polymyositis (PM) induced by coxsackievirus B1 (CVB1) has been used as a model of human PM. Our study was undertaken to investigate the role of T cells in CVB1 induced PM by examining disease development in neonatally thymectomized mice. Clinical weakness and histological inflammatory myositis occurred in 42.7% of sham operated animals but only 7.7% of thymectomized mice. These experiments demonstrate the importance of T cells in the pathogenesis of this virus induced autoimmune disorder.
