First report of seroprevalence of swine influenza a virus in Tibetan pigs in Tibet, China

Swine influenza A virus (SIV) is zoonotic pathogen that can be acquired by food-borne transmission because food animals, for example pigs, are recognized as a reservoir. The objectives of this study were to determine the seroprevalence of anti-SIV (H1N1 and H3N2) in Tibetan pigs in Tibet Nationality Autonomous Region, China, a region with cold weather and high altitude. A total of 421 serum samples were randomly collected from Tibetan pigs in Tibet and were evaluated for antibodies against SIV using enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay. Overall, 52 % (219/421) of the animals was positive for H1N1, 16.9 % (71/421) positive for H3N2, and 8.8 % (37/421) positive for both H1N1 and H3N2. The results of the present survey indicated that SIV is highly prevalent among Tibetan pigs in Tibet, China. The results of the present investigation have implications for the ongoing control of SIV infection in Tibetan pigs in Tibet, China and elsewhere.     

华南地区猪群猪流感病毒病原学和血清学调查

为了解华南地区猪群中猪流感病毒(SIV)的流行及其遗传变异情况,本研究从2016年~2017年广东、广西等地猪群236份猪肺脏病料组织和143份鼻拭子样品中分离鉴定得到3株SIV,全基因组测序和遗传演化分析结果显示,3个分离株均属于H1N1亚型欧亚类禽分支SIV,并且均与pdm09分支病毒株发生了重组。HA蛋白分子特征分析结果显示,A/Swine/Guangxi/NK/2016 HA蛋白第23位糖基化位点发生了缺失。3265份血清样品抗体监测结果显示,欧亚类禽H1N1、pdm09 H1N1和H3N2 SIV的血清抗体阳性率分别为27.53%、20.98%和34.85%。另外,0.64%的(21份)血清样品为H9N2亚型流感病毒抗体阳性,并且猪群中不同亚型和不同分支SIV之间混合感染的情况非常普遍。猪群中流感病毒血清抗体监测结果显示,EA H1N1、pdm09和H3N2亚型SIV HI抗体滴度最高均可达到1:1280,而H9N2亚型HI抗体滴度最高为1:160,表明H9N2 AIV虽然可以感染猪,但对猪还不适应。各月份的血清抗体阳性率分析显示,SIV的流行具有季节性,冬季(11月、12月和1月份)的流行最为严重。本研究可为华南地区猪群SI防控及疫苗株的筛选提供参考依据。     

猪流感病毒H1、H3、N1、N2亚型分型 RT-PCR方法的建立

根据GenBank中H1N1和H3N2亚型猪流感病毒(SIV)血凝素(hemagglutinin,HA)、神经氨酸酶(neuraminidase,NA)和M基因保守序列,分别设计合成了5对特异性引物,利用RT-PCR技术对SIV的型和亚型进行鉴定。结果表明,该方法的型RT-PCR可以检测出10⁴ EID₅₀病毒量所提取的RNA;H1、H3、N1和N2的亚型RT-PCR均可以检测出10⁴ EID₅₀病毒量所提取的RNA。除每对特异性引物所对应的亚型外,对其他亚型及猪繁殖与呼吸综合征病毒(PRRSV)和猪瘟病毒(CSFV)的检测均为阴性,应用该方法对临床样品进行检测,其结果与病毒分离结果符合率为100%。结果表明,该方法特异性好、敏感性高,有望成为SIV的一种特异、敏感、快速的分型检测方法,为猪流感分子流行病学的调查奠定了良好的基础。     

Virological Surveillance and Preliminary Antigenic Characterization of Influenza Viruses in Pigs in Five European Countries from 2006 to 2008

This study presents the results of the virological surveillance for swine influenza viruses (SIVs) in Belgium, UK, Italy, France and Spain from 2006 to 2008. Our major aims were to clarify the occurrence of the three SIV subtypes – H1N1, H3N2 and H1N2 – at regional levels, to identify novel reassortant viruses and to antigenically compare SIVs with human H1N1 and H3N2 influenza viruses. Lung tissue and/or nasal swabs from outbreaks of acute respiratory disease in pigs were investigated by virus isolation. The hemagglutinin (HA) and neuraminidase (NA) subtypes were determined using standard methods. Of the total 169 viruses, 81 were classified as ‘avian‐like’ H1N1, 36 as human‐like H3N2 and 47 as human‐like H1N2. Only five novel reassortant viruses were identified: two H1N1 viruses had a human‐like HA and three H1N2 viruses an avian‐like HA. All three SIV subtypes were detected in Belgium, Italy and Spain, while only H1N1 and H1N2 viruses were found in UK and Northwestern France. Cross‐hemagglutination inhibition (HI) tests with hyperimmune sera against selected older and recent human influenza viruses showed a strong antigenic relationship between human H1N1 and H3N2 viruses from the 1980s and H1N2 and H3N2 human‐like SIVs, confirming their common origin. However, antisera against human viruses isolated during the last decade did not react with currently circulating H1 or H3 SIVs, suggesting that especially young people may be, to some degree, susceptible to SIV infections.     

猪流感病毒HA基因的原核表达及其ELISA检测方法的建立

根据H1N1亚型猪流感病毒血凝素基因序列设计并合成特异性引物,从本室保存的H1N1亚型猪流感病毒中扩增信号肽和跨膜区缺失的血凝素基因,并将其克隆到原核表达载体pET-28a中,在大肠埃希菌中诱导表达.对表达蛋白进行SDS-PAGE和Western blot的结果表明,HA基因在大肠埃希菌中获得表达,产物具有免疫学活性,表达蛋白分子质量约为55 ku.表达产物经过纯化作为包被抗原建立了检测H1亚型猪流感抗体的间接ELISA方法.该方法具有较高的特异性和敏感性,重复性良好.应用该方法对2006年2 584份临床猪血清进行检测,结果显示多个地区检测猪流感抗体出现阳性,平均为20.5%.在6月、7月和12月分别出现抗体水平高峰,分别高达25.4%、25.0%和35.5%.     

H9N2亚型猪源性流感病毒在小鼠肺微血管内皮细胞内最佳增殖条件的研究

试验旨在确定H9N2亚型猪源性流感病毒（SIV）在小鼠肺微血管内皮细胞（PMVEC）中增殖的最佳条件。将PMVEC解冻、复苏、培养,取长成单层的PMVEC,在不同浓度TPCK-胰蛋白酶维持液（0.1、0.2、0.3、0.4、0.6、0.8、1.0 μg/mL）、不同H9N2亚型SIV（A/swine/HeBei/012/2008/（H9N2）接种剂量（1：10、1：100、1：1 000、1：10 000、1：100 000、1：1 000 000和1：10 000 000）及不同病毒吸附时间（0.5、1.0、2.0和3.0 h）条件下观察PMVEC形态变化,并测定细胞上清液中H9N2亚型SIV的HA滴度。在未加病毒的情况下,低于0.6 μg/mL的TPCK-胰蛋白酶对PMVEC的生长未造成任何影响,但随着TPCK-胰蛋白酶浓度的增加,PMVEC开始出现肿胀、变圆,甚至脱落;采用含有0.6 μg/mL TPCK-胰蛋白酶维持液将H9N2亚型SIV稀释为不同的浓度感染PMVEC,在0.3 μg/mL TPCK-胰蛋白酶维持液、10^-2病毒稀释倍数感染条件下48和72 h HA滴度分别为4.6log2和6.4log2;病毒吸附时间为2 h且中间震荡20 s的条件下H9N2 HA滴度最佳。结果表明,当TPCK-胰蛋白酶维持液浓度为0.3 μg/mL、病毒接种浓度为10^-2、吸附时间为2 h且中间震荡20 s时,H9N2亚型SIV在PMVEC中增殖最佳,达到6.8log2。     

Pre-infection of pigs with Mycoplasma hyopneumoniae modifies outcomes of infection with European swine influenza virus of H1N1, but not H1N2, subtype

Swine influenza virus (SIV) and Mycoplasma hyopneumoniae (Mhp) are widespread in farms and are major pathogens involved in the porcine respiratory disease complex (PRDC). The aim of this experiment was to compare the pathogenicity of European avian-like swine H1N1 and European human-like reassortant swine H1N2 viruses in na?ve pigs and in pigs previously infected with Mhp. Six groups of SPF pigs were inoculated intra-tracheally with either Mhp, or H1N1, or H1N2 or Mhp+H1N1 or Mhp+H1N2, both pathogens being inoculated at 21 days intervals in these two last groups. A mock-infected group was included. Although both SIV strains induced clinical signs when singly inoculated, results indicated that the H1N2 SIV was more pathogenic than the H1N1 virus, with an earlier shedding and a greater spread in lungs. Initial infection with Mhp before SIV inoculation increased flu clinical signs and pathogenesis (hyperthermia, loss of appetite, pneumonia lesions) due to the H1N1 virus but did not modify significantly outcomes of H1N2 infection. Thus, Mhp and SIV H1N1 appeared to act synergistically, whereas Mhp and SIV H1N2 would compete, as H1N2 infection led to the elimination of Mhp in lung diaphragmatic lobes. In conclusion, SIV would be a risk factor for the severity of respiratory disorders when associated with Mhp, depending on the viral subtype involved. This experimental model of coinfection with Mhp and avian-like swine H1N1 is a relevant tool for studying the pathogenesis of SIV-associated PRDC and testing intervention strategies for the control of the disease.     

Evidence of the concurrent circulation of H1N2, H1N1 and H3N2 influenza A viruses in densely populated pig areas in Spain

This paper reports on a serological and virological survey for swine influenza virus (SIV) in densely populated pig areas in Spain. The survey was undertaken to examine whether the H1N2 SIV subtype circulates in pigs in these areas, as in other European regions. Six hundred sow sera from 100 unvaccinated breeding herds across Northern and Eastern Spain were examined using haemagglutination inhibition (HI) tests against H1N1, H3N2 and H1N2 SIV subtypes. Additionally, 225 lung samples from pigs with respiratory problems were examined for the presence of SIV by virus isolation in embryonated chicken eggs and by a commercial membrane immunoassay. The virus isolates were further identified by HI and RT-PCR followed by partial cDNA sequencing. The HI test on sera revealed the presence of antibodies against at least one of the SIV subtypes in 83% of the herds and in 76.3% of the animals studied. Of the 600 sow sera tested, 109 (18.2%), 60 (10%) and 41 (6.8%) had SIV antibodies to subtype H1N2 alone, H3N2 alone and H1N1 alone, respectively. Twelve H3N2 viruses, 9 H1N1 viruses and 1 H1N2 virus were isolated from the lungs of pigs with respiratory problems. The analysis of a 436 nucleotide sequence of the neuraminidase gene from the H1N2 strain isolated further confirmed its identity. Demonstrably, swine influenza is still endemic in the studied swine population and a new subtype, the H1N2, may be becoming established and involved in clinical outbreaks of the disease in Spain.

猪流感是猪常见的呼吸道传染病,临床以高热、呼吸困难、咳嗽和衰竭、迅速康复或死亡为特征。猪流感不仅给养猪业造成巨大损失,也严重威胁着人类健康。本研究从发病猪场中分离到1株H1N1亚型猪流感病毒,序列分析结果显示,分离毒株属于欧洲类禽猪流感H1N1亚型病毒。将分离毒株分别接种到MDCK与ST细胞,观察病毒的生长特性,结果显示分离的猪流感病毒在ST细胞中复制能力较强。采用RT-PCR技术分别扩增8个基因片段,克隆到流感病毒反向遗传系统,成功拯救出猪流感病毒毒株,测序结果显示拯救的猪流感病毒与亲本毒序列一致。本研究成功分离的猪流感病毒,以及建立的反向遗传技术为研究欧洲类禽猪流感病毒跨种传播的机制以及研发新型猪流感疫苗株奠定了基础。     

Comparison of a commercial enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay with hemagglutination inhibition assay for serodiagnosis of swine influenza virus (H1N1) infection.

A commercial indirect swine influenza virus (SIV) H1N1 enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) was compared with the hemagglutination inhibition (HI) assay by testing 72 samples from experimentally infected pigs and 780 field samples of undefined SIV status. The HI assay was performed using SIV isolates A/Swine/IA/73 for H1N1 and A/Swine/IA/8548-1/98 for H3N2. The ELISA used an SIV isolated in 1988. The results showed that HI and ELISA detected an antibody in 11 and 6, respectively, of 72 serum samples collected from pigs experimentally infected with a 1992 SIV isolate (A/Swine/IA/40776/92). The presence of antibodies in these experimental samples was confirmed by HI tests in which all 72 samples were positive against the homologous virus, a more recent H1N1 SIV isolate (A/Swine/NVSL/01) supplied by National Veterinary Services Laboratories, Ames, Iowa, and a 1999 H1N1 isolate currently used in a commercial vaccine. On testing 780 field samples, an overall agreement of 85.5% was generated between the HI and ELISA. This study demonstrated that the ELISA is a useful serodiagnostic screening test at herd level for detecting swine antibodies against SIV. However, a new SIV isolate representing current SIV strains circulating in the field is needed to replace the older isolates used in the HI and ELISA to increase the test accuracy for serodiagnosis of SIV.     

Phylogenetic analysis of swine influenza viruses isolated in Poland

Swine influenza virus (SIV) of H1N1 and H3N2 subtypes are dominated in European pigs population. "Classical swine" H1N1 subtype was replaced by "avian-like" H1N1 subtype. It co-circulates with H3N2 reassortant possessing "avian" genes. In the present study, 41 SIV strains isolated from pigs with pneumonia, raised in 20 Polish farms, were identified and characterised. Since it was evidenced that isolates from the same geographic district and the same year of isolation are in 100% similar, 15 strains representing different district and different year of isolation were chosen to construct phylogenetic trees. Two genes, conservative matrix 1 (M1) and the most variable, haemagglutynin (HA), were sequenced and subjected into phylogenetic analysis. The results of the analysis confirmed that "avian-like" swine H1N1 strains evolved faster than classical SIV strains. HA gene of these isolates have been derived from contemporary strains of "avian-like" SIV. In contrast, the M1 gene segment may have originated from avian influenza viruses. H3N2 strain is located in swine cluster, in the main prevalent European group of H3N2 isolates called A/Port Chalmers/1/73-like Eurasian swine H3N2 lineage, which has evolved separately from the human H3N2 virus lineage around 1973.     

Immune responses and protective efficacy of a recombinant swinepox virus co-expressing HA1 genes of H3N2 and H1N1 swine influenza virus in mice and pigs

The recombinant swine poxvirus rSPV/H3-2A-H1 co-expressing HA1 genes of H3N2 and H1N1 subtype SIV has been constructed and identified. Inoculations of rSPV/H3-2A-H1 yielded ELISA and neutralization antibodies against SIV H1N1 and H3N2, and elicited potent H1N1 and H3N2 SIV-specific INF-γ response from T-lymphocytes in mice and pigs in this study. Complete protection against SIV H1N1 or H3N2 challenge in pigs was observed.     

辽宁省H1N1亚型猪流感病毒的分离鉴定与遗传演化分析

本研究2012年底从辽宁省某屠宰场猪鼻咽拭子样品中分离到1株流感病毒,经HA—HI试验和RT—PCR鉴定为H1N1亚型猪流感病毒株,命名为A／swine/Liaoning／01／2012（H1N1）,通过对病毒的8个基因片段克隆并测序,并利用分子生物学软件进行遗传演化分析。结果表明,分离株HA基因裂解位点附近的氨基酸序列为IPSIQSRjG,符合低致病力流感病毒的分子特征。全基因组进化树结果表明,分离株的8个基因片段与A／swine／Jiangsu／40／2011（H1N1）株核苷酸同源性最高,分离株处在类禽型H1N1亚型遗传进化分支上;由于类禽型H1N1猪流感病毒具有潜在感染人的潜力,在国外和国内均有感染人的报道,因此,辽宁省首次分离到该型猪流感病毒对全省养猪业和公共卫生安全具有重要意义,值得深入研究。     

H1亚型猪流感病毒一步法实时荧光定量RT-PCR检测方法的建立及应用

为建立一种快速、简便、准确的方法以诊断和检测H1亚型猪流感病毒(swine influenza virus,SIV),试验根据H1亚型SIV血凝素(hemagglutinin,HA)基因保守序列,分别设计并合成1对特异性引物和1条TaqMan MGB探针,建立检测H1亚型SIV的一步法实时荧光定量RT-PCR技术。结果显示,该方法的敏感性可达10²拷贝/μL,除H1亚型SIV外,对H3N2亚型SIV、H9N1亚型SIV、猪瘟病毒、猪繁殖与呼吸综合征病毒、猪流行性腹泻病毒、猪传染性胃肠炎病毒的检测均为阴性,且应用该方法对疑似猪流感样品进行检测,其结果与SPF鸡胚分离病毒方法结果的符合率为94%。本试验结果表明该方法特异性强、重复性好,有望成为一种特异、敏感、快速、定量检测H1亚型SIV的方法。     

Prevalence of and risk factors for influenza in southern Ontario swine herds in 2001 and 2003

This research included 2 prevalence studies and a risk-factor investigation conducted in 2001 at 93 sites with sows only, finishers only, or both. In 2001, 1300 serum samples from sows in 65 herds and 720 serum samples from finisher pigs in 72 herds were tested for antibodies to swine influenzavirus (SIV) of H1N1 subtype with an enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA). In 2003, 1140 serum samples from sows in 76 herds were tested for antibodies to SIV of H3N2 subtype with a hemagglutination-inhibition assay based on A/Swine/Colorado/1/77 and A/Swine/Texas/4199-2/98 isolates. The apparent pig-level H1N1 seroprevalence in 2001 was 61.1% and 24.3% in sows and finishers, respectively. The apparent pig-level seroprevalence in 2003 for H3N2 A/Sw/CO/1/77 and A/Sw/TX/4199-2/98 in sows was 0.6% and 0.7%, respectively. The factors associated with sow-herd H1N1 positivity included pig or farm density at different geographic levels, an external source of breeding pigs, number of animals on site, and decreasing proximity to other barns. Higher-parity sows had higher odds of seropositivity, but there was significant random variability in this association among herds. The odds of finisher-herd SIV positivity were higher with large herd size, high pig farm density, and farrow-to-finish type of farm. Finisher herds were SIV-positive only if source sow herds were positive. Simultaneously, 45% of finisher herds were SIV-negative although sow source herds were positive.     

一株人源H1N1亚型猪流感病毒的进化分析与生物学特性研究

为了解猪流感病毒(SIV)的变异情况,我们2009年11月从河北某养殖场采集呈流感症状的猪鼻拭子40份,接种10日龄SPF鸡胚,分离到一株猪流感病毒,通过RT-PCR和血凝抑制试验鉴定为H1N1亚型,命名为A/swine/Hebei/15/2009(H1N1),其全基因序列测定及同源性分析发现,8个基因片段均与2000年左右H1N1人流感病毒有较高的同源性。系统遗传演化显示,该病毒分离株是由2000年人源H1N1流感病毒A/Dunedin/2/2000(H1N1)进化而来。抗原性分析显示该株与甲型H1N1流感病毒和经典H1N1病毒株抗原性差异较大。对小鼠致病性试验表明该病毒株可以直接感染小鼠并导致小鼠轻微临床症状和组织病理学变化,但不致死小鼠,表现为低致病性。     

Serological evidence for influenza virus infection in Korean wild boars

Serum samples from 1,011 wild boars hunted in 2012 were collected for serological surveillance for 4 subtypes (pandemic A (H1N1) 2009 and classical H1N1, H1N2 and H3N2) of swine influenza virus (SIV). Samples from 12 of the boars were identified as positive for SIV (pandemic A (H1N1) 2009, n=9; classical H1N1, n=2; and H1N2, n=1) by a hemagglutination inhibition test (HI test) and a nucleoprotein (NP)-based enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (NP-ELISA). Although the overall seroprevalence of SIV in the Korean wild boar population was somewhat low compared with that in China and the U.S.A., the apparent prevalence of pandemic H1N1 was notable. Therefore, continuous monitoring of the wild boar population is needed as it may be a major reservoir for pandemic H1N1, facilitating its spread to humans and domestic pigs.
