We recently demonstrated that neurons derived from pluripotent human embryonic stem cells (hESC) can be infected by the highly host-restricted human alphaherpesvirus varicella-zoster virus (VZV), permitting the interaction of VZV with neurons to be readily evaluated in culture. In the present study, we examine whether pluripotent hESC and neural progenitors at intermediate stages of differentiation are permissive for VZV infection. We demonstrate here that VZV infection is blocked in na\u00efve hESC. A block to VZV replication is also seen when a bacterial artificial chromosome (BAC) containing the VZV genome is transfected into hESC. In contrast, related alphaherpesviruses herpes simplex virus 1 (HSV-1) and pseudorabies virus (PrV) productively infect na\u00efve hESC in a cell-free manner, and PrV replicates from a BAC transfected into hESC. Neurons differentiate from hESC via neural progenitor intermediates, as is the case in the embryo. The first\n                    <jats:italic>in vitro<\/jats:italic>\n                    stage at which permissiveness of hESC-derived neural precursors to VZV replication is observed is upon formation of \u201cneurospheres,\u201d immediately after detachment from the inductive stromal feeder layer. These findings suggest that hESC may be useful in deciphering the yet enigmatic mechanisms of specificity of VZV infection and replication.\n                  <\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1128\/jvi.06810-11","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2012,1,11]],"date-time":"2012-01-11T23:56:00Z","timestamp":1326326160000},"page":"3211-3218","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1128\/asmj-crossmark-policy-page","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":39,"title":["Varicella-Zoster Virus Infects Human Embryonic Stem Cell-Derived Neurons and Neurospheres but Not Pluripotent Embryonic Stem Cells or Early Progenitors"],"prefix":"10.1128","volume":"86","author":[{"given":"Anna","family":"Dukhovny","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Mina and Everard Goodman Faculty of Life Sciences Bar-Ilan University, Ramat-Gan, Israel"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Anna","family":"Sloutskin","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Mina and Everard Goodman Faculty of Life Sciences Bar-Ilan University, Ramat-Gan, Israel"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Amos","family":"Markus","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Mina and Everard Goodman Faculty of Life Sciences Bar-Ilan University, Ramat-Gan, Israel"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Michael B.","family":"Yee","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Ophthalmology and Department of Microbiology &amp; Molecular Genetics, University of Pittsburgh, Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, USA"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Paul R.","family":"Kinchington","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Ophthalmology and Department of Microbiology &amp; Molecular Genetics, University of Pittsburgh, Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, USA"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Ronald S.","family":"Goldstein","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Mina and Everard Goodman Faculty of Life Sciences Bar-Ilan University, Ramat-Gan, Israel"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"235","reference":[{"key":"e_1_3_2_2_2","first-page":"189","article-title":"Varicella-zoster virus T cell tropism and the pathogenesis of skin infection","volume":"342","author":"Arvin AM","year":"2010","unstructured":"ArvinAM . 2010.
