Initial studies determined whether intraperitoneal (i.p.) injection of BALB/c mice with 0.1, 1.0, and 10 mg of adriamycin (a cardiotoxic anthracycline antibiotic) for times ranging between 1 and 9 weeks prior to i.p. injection of 10(5) PFU of coxsackievirus B3 (CVB3) would alter the severity of virus-induced myocarditis. Prior adriamycin exposure enhanced pathogenicity of a poorly pathogenic CVB3 variant (H310A1) but had no effect on myocarditis produced by the pathogenic variant (H3). Cardiac virus concentrations were equivalent in H3- and H310A1-infected mice irrespective of adriamycin treatment. BALB/c mice treated with either 0.1 ml of complete Freund's adjuvant (CFA), 10 mg of adriamycin, or 10(5) PFU of H3 and H310A1 i.p. developed cytolytic Thy 1.2+ lymphocytes (CTL) to H3-infected myocytes 7 days later. CFA-, adriamycin-, and H3-treated mice developed CTL expressing the gamma delta+ T-cell receptors, while H310A1-infected animals did not. Only H3- and H310A1-infected mice developed alpha beta+ CTL. Treatment of BALB/c mice with 0.1 ml of CFA 5 days prior to H310A1 infection dramatically increased myocarditis. Selective depletion of gamma delta+ T cells abrogated this effect. The ability of gamma delta+ T cells to augment the pathogenicity of H310A1 infection was confirmed by adoptive transfer of CFA-stimulated T cells depleted of either gamma delta- or gamma delta+ cells into H310A1-infected recipients.
