Herpetic stromal keratitis (HSK) is a CD4+ T cell-controlled immunopathologic lesion in the eye that results from infection with herpes simplex virus (HSV). Target Ags involved in HSK remain undefined. In this study, we determined if HSK could be induced in animals genetically incapable of generating HSV Ag-specific CD4+ T cells. Mice bearing transgenic TCR specific to OVA peptide 323–339 (DO11.10) were crossed to SCID mice whose offspring (Tg-SCID) possessed CD4+ T cells, >98% of which expressed the OVA peptide-specific TCR. HSV infection of Tg-SCID mice was lethal, and mice failed to generate detectable T cell responses even after repeated immunization with a mutant avirulent virus (AN-1). Immunization with AN-1 virus followed by ocular challenge with HSV resulted in ocular inflammation before encephalitis, in contrast to the protection conferred in the control BALB/c and DO11.10 mice. These results indicate that clinical HSK may not require viral Ag recognition by CD4+ T cells and that T cells of irrelevant specificity can be recruited, activated, and driven into effector function in the HSV-infected cornea. This is suggested to represent a bystander activation effect resulting from the presence of proinflammatory mediators resulting from HSV replication.
