A study of 13 patients with laryngeal papillomas is presented, with an analysis of epidemiologic factors, electron microscopic study of the lesion, and therapeutic trial of frequent microlaryngoscopic surgery and application of idoxuridine. Five of the nine children in this group were delivered by mothers who had condyloma accuminatum at time of delivery. These five children developed symptoms and required surgery much earlier than the other four. This correlation is shown to be statistically significant. The electron microscopic study of tissue specimens from all our patients failed to find any actual virus particles. The comparison study with skin and genital warts, however, showed ultrastructural details linking the three lesions. Results of the therapeutic program showed an overall improvement in frequency of recurrence, but no complete cures. This improvement is felt to be related to frequent complete surgical excision, and not to application of idoxuridine.

The Brain

A gnobiotic piglet, was inoculated intracerebrally with hemagglutinating encephalomyelitis virus (strain VW572). Mononuclear cells formed vascular cuffs and were disseminated in the brain parenchyma. A few neurons were surrounded by the same kind of cells. Virus particles morphologically similar to Coronavirus particles were found in the cytoplasm of both chromatolytic light neurons and hyperchromic dark neurons. The particles were in vesicles of distended endoplasmic reticulum and in the hypertrophied Golgi apparatus.

An electron microscopic study of the morphology of Herpesvirus macaca, a serologically distinct infectious agent isolated from the leukocytes of rhesus monkeys, was performed. WI-38 fibroblast monolayers were infected with the virus and examined 18 days later. The morphology of Herpesvirus macaca was, in general, typical of the herpesvirus group. Enveloped virus particles observed via negative-stain technique had a diameter of 145–155 nm. An inner capsid composed of hexagonal capsomeres had a diameter of 100–110 nm and surrounded a central core. While enveloped forms appeared to be present within the nuclei of infected cells, they were not found in the cytoplasm except within vacuolar structures. Associated changes were found in the morphology of infected cells, including intracytoplasmic myelin figures.

Peripheral Blood Leucocytes

Herpes-like viruses were isolated from rhesus monkey peripheral blood leucocytes when co-cultivated with WI-38 cells. The virus was originally designated rhesus leucocyte-associated herpesvirus (LAHV) and subsequently called Herpesvirus mulatta (HVM). The original isolations were from juvenile rhesus monkeys shown to be free of antibody to rhesus cytomegalic virus. The virus could only be propagated in human or simian fibroblasts. Use of specific antisera developed from HVM showed no relationship between this virus and other herpesviruses. An electron microscopic study was undertaken to determine the morphology of Herpesvirus mulatta (HVM) in infected human fibroblasts.

Infected Cells

An ultrastructural study of the intestinal epithelium of mice infected with the agent of epizootic diarrhea of infant mice (EDIM virus) was first performed by Adams and Kraft. We have extended their observations and have found developmental forms of the virus and associated structures not reported by them.Three-day-old NLM strain mice were infected with EDIM virus and killed 48 to 168 hours later. Specimens of bowel were fixed in glutaraldehyde, post fixed in osmium tetroxide and embedded in epon. Sections were stained with uranyl magnesium acetate followed by lead citrate and examined in an updated RCA EMU-3F electron microscope.The cells containing virus particles (infected) are at the tips of the villi and occur throughout the intestine from duodenum through colon. All developmental forms of the virus are present from 48 to 168 hours after infection. Figure 1 is of cells without virus particles and figure 2 is of an infected cell. The nucleus and cytoplasm of the infected cells appear clearer than the cells without virus particles.
