Transmission of bovine herpesvirus 1 (BHV1) within and between herds was studied on the island of Ameland, The Netherlands. There were 50 herds with 3300 head of cattle on the island. Herds were divided into three groups: (1) only containing seronegative cattle, (2) containing seronegative cattle and vaccinated seropositive cattle, and (3) containing only vaccinated cattle. All 23 herds in groups 1 and 2 were monitored. Three major outbreaks of BHV1 infections were observed due to the introduction of infectious cattle. Another major outbreak was most likely induced by reactivation of latent BHV1 in seropositive cattle. The basic reproduction ratio within these herds was estimated at least 4. Only one of these outbreaks led to three secondary outbreaks in susceptible herds in which all cattle were seronegative. These outbreaks were most likely due to respectively, direct animal contact, human transmission, and aerogenic transmission. The basic reproduction ratio between herds in this study was estimated to be 0·6.

Expression of Krüppel-like factor 15 (KLF15), a stress-induced transcription factor, is induced during bovine herpesvirus 1 (BoHV-1) reactivation from latency, and KLF15 stimulates BoHV-1 replication. Transient transfection studies revealed that KLF15 and glucocorticoid receptor (GR) cooperatively transactivate the BoHV-1-immediate-early transcription unit 1 (IEtu1), herpes simplex virus type 1 (HSV-1) infected cell protein 0 (ICP0), and ICP4 promoters. The IEtu1 promoter drives expression of bICP0 and bICP4, two key BoHV-1 transcriptional regulatory proteins. Based on these studies, we hypothesized infection is a stressful stimulus that increases KLF15 expression and enhances productive infection. New studies demonstrated that silencing KLF15 impaired HSV-1 productive infection, and KLF15 steady-state protein levels were increased at late stages of productive infection. KLF15 was primarily localized to the nucleus following infection of cultured cells with HSV-1, but not BoHV-1. When cells were transfected with a KLF15 promoter construct and then infected with HSV-1, promoter activity was significantly increased. The ICP0 gene, and to a lesser extent, bICP0 transactivated the KLF15 promoter in the absence of other viral proteins. In contrast, BoHV-1 or HSV-1 encoded VP16 had no effect on KLF15 promoter activity. Collectively, these studies revealed that HSV-1 and BoHV-1 productive infection increased KLF15 steady-state protein levels, which correlated with increased virus production.
