In this study we examined the direct effects of bovine herpesvirus-1 on the interaction of bovine blood neutrophils with Pasteurella haemolytica A1. Preincubation of neutrophils for approximately 2 h in vitro with BHV-1 at a multiplicity of infection of 5:1 had no effect on neutrophil random migration and directed migration to zymosan-activated bovine serum. Neutrophils also were unimpaired in their ability to ingest and kill P. haemolytica A1. Preincubation of neutrophils with BHV-1 did not elicit an oxidative burst, as measured by luminol-enhanced chemiluminescence, nor did it alter neutrophil chemiluminescence in response to opsonized P. haemolytica A1. Prolonged preincubation with BHV-1 for 18-24 h similarly did not affect neutrophil chemiluminescence in response to opsonized P. haemolytica A1. The susceptibility of neutrophils to the lethal effects of crude P. haemolytica cytotoxin also was unaltered by preincubation with BHV-1. We observed no evidence of BHV-1 replication in bovine neutrophils as determined by indirect immunofluorescence and electron microscopy. Previous reports have indicated that active BHV-1 infection alters certain neutrophil functions and results in hypersusceptibility to pulmonary pasteurellosis. Our results suggest that these effects are unlikely to be mediated directly by BHV-1, but instead may reflect the action of endogenous mediators that are released during active BHV-1 infection.
