Monoclonal antibodies to bovine viral diarrhea virus: cross-reactivities to field isolates and hog cholera virus strains.

Monoclonal antibodies to bovine viral diarrhea virus (BVDV) were examined for binding with a large number of North American BVDV isolates and eight strains of the serologically related pestivirus, hog cholera virus (HCV). No single BVDV monoclonal antibody reacted with all BVDV isolates. The most cross-reactive monoclonal antibody was an anti-p80/p125 antibody which showed a positive reaction with 173 of 180 (96%) North American isolates. From a fewer number of isolates tested, one anti-gp53 monoclonal antibody also showed a high cross-reactivity (94%). All BVDV isolates showed a positive reaction with at least one of the seven monoclonal antibodies in the panel. Thus, the results indicated that a pool of these monoclonal antibodies may be used in place of polyclonal antisera for the detection of BVDV contamination of cell lines or for virus isolation. For HCV, all three anti-p80/p125 monoclonal antibodies reacted positively with all eight virus strains. In contrast, none of the anti-gp53 monoclonal antibodies were reactive to HCV strains. Thus, the anti-gp53 monoclonal antibodies may be useful for distinguishing between usually innocuous BVDV infections and the highly significant HCV infections in swine for foreign animal disease surveillance.     

Comparative analysis of monoclonal antibodies against pestiviruses: report of an international workshop

Thirty-three pestivirus strains were grown in cell culture and characterized by immunostaining with 19 monoclonal antibodies (MAbs) raised against hog cholera virus (HCV), with 42 MAbs against bovine viral diarrhoea virus (BVDV) and with 13 MAbs against border disease virus (BDV). Seven MAbs reacted with all pestivirus strains tested, eight MAbs detected only the seven HCV strains, three detected only the 16 BVDV strains. No MAb was found that was specific for BDV. BVDV and BDV strains were broadly cross-reactive with the MAbs, indicating a close relationship between these two species, whereas HCV strains were characterized as distinct from BVDV and BDV.

Characterization of porcine and some ruminant pestiviruses by cross-neutralization

Serologic relationships between 11 pestivirus strains that originated from pigs and five that originated from cattle or sheep were studied by cross-neutralization. Experiments were performed with pig and sheep sera raised against the strains. The results were analysed by a computerized taxonomic procedure. The 16 viruses were classified into four distinct serologic groups. All hog cholera virus (HCV) strains were classified in one group; the other three groups consisted of strains that can infect pigs, but that are identified as bovine viral diarrhoea virus (BVDV) or border disease virus (BDV), or showed a closer relationship to BVDV and BDV than to HCV.     

Clinical, post mortem and virological findings after simultaneous inoculation of pigs with hog cholera and bovine viral diarrhoea virus.

The clinical course, post mortem lesions as well as virological and serological results after simultaneous intranasal inoculation of pigs with bovine viral diarrhoea virus (BVDV) and hog cholera virus (HCV) are described. Five groups of four weaners received constant doses of BVDV strain OSLOSS/2482 and tenfold decreasing doses of HCV strain ALFORT/187. Doses of 1,000 and 100 TCID50 of HCV in groups A and B of pigs led to fever and severe clinical signs in all animals of two groups, whereas at higher dilution of inoculum two, three or four animals survived without any clinical signs in the respective groups (C-E). Leucocyte samples taken from febrile animals and from normal pigs on five consecutive days were inoculated into both fetal calf kidney (FCK) and PK (15) cell cultures. Virus isolates were differentiated with BVDV and HCV specific monoclonal antibodies. HCV viraemia was detected in febrile animals exclusively, and BVDV viraemia occurred in not affected animals on days 3 to 7 post inoculation. Neutralizing antibodies (nab) against BVDV appeared before HCV nab in surviving animals of groups C and D after receiving low doses of HCV (10 or 1 TCID50). No BVDV nab were detected in group E that had received such a high dilution of HCV in addition to BVDV that theoretically no HCV was applied.

Natural infection of pigs with bovine viral diarrhea virus and its differential diagnosis from hog cholera.

Natural infection of pigs with bovine viral diarrhea virus (BVDV) through contact with infected cattle has caused problems in diagnosing hog cholera (HC). Low cross-reacting serum antibody titers against HC caused by BVDV infection were found in clinically normal pigs as well as those suspected of having HC. Bovine viral diarrhea virus was isolated from specimen tissues and initially identified as HC virus (HCV), using the fluorescent antibody cell culture technique. Additional cell cultures, as well as pig and calf trials, were necessary to identify it as BVDV. The isolate caused clinical signs of illness in the calves, whereas the pigs remained healthy. Bovine viral diarrhea virus may be detected in tissue sections or isolated in cell cultures and confirmed as HCV, using the HC fluorescent antibody conjugate. Laboratories performing the neutralization test for HC should use discretion when interpreting HC titers unless BVD titers are determined on the same serums.

Antigenic differentiation of pestivirus strains with monoclonal antibodies against hog cholera virus

Thirty-one bovine viral diarrhoea virus (BVDV) or border disease virus (BDV) strains and 94 hog cholera virus (HCV) strains were grown in cell culture, and characterized by immunostaining with 13 monoclonal antibodies (MAbs) and one polyclonal serum (PAb) against HCV. All 125 strains were recognized by the PAb. None of the BVDV or BDV strains were detected by the 13 MAbs. Seven MAbs detected all 94 HCV strains. Six other MAbs detected heterogeneity among and within HCV strains. The MAbs are useful tools in differentiating between HCV and BVDV infections in pigs, and can also be used to differentiate infections induced by HCV field strains from infections induced by the "Chinese" strain of vaccine virus.     

Identification of hog cholera viral isolates by use of monoclonal antibodies to pestiviruses

A collection of 90 field isolates of hog cholera virus (HCV) was used to test the specificity of four hybridoma cell lines secreting monoclonal antibodies against pestiviruses. Reaction of virus isolates and monoclonal antibodies was controlled by an indirect immunofluorescence assay (IFA). Two monoclonal antibodies which had been generated against HC virus strain "Alfort 187" were reactive only with HCV field isolates and an HCV reference strain but not with bovine viral diarrhoea virus (BVDV) reference strains. Two other monoclonal antibodies (generated against BVDV, strain NADL) reacted only with BVDV reference strains but not with HCV field isolates, although with 3 of these strains focal reactions involving only a few cells were detected. The ability to discriminate between both viruses is a diagnostic need which may be fulfilled by these monoclonal antibodies.

Directional spread of an alpha-herpesvirus in the nervous system

Pseudorabies virus (PRV), an alpha-herpesvirus, is capable of spreading between synaptically connected neurons in diverse hosts. In this report, two lines of experimentation are summarized that provide insight into the mechanism of virus spread in neurons. First, techniques were developed to measure the transport dynamics of capsids in infected neurons. Individual viral capsids labeled with green fluorescent protein (GFP) were visualized and tracked as they moved in axons away from infected neuronal cell bodies in culture during egress. Second, the effects of three viral membrane proteins (gE, gI and Us9) on the localization of envelope, tegument, and capsid proteins in infected, cultured sympathetic neurons were determined. These three proteins are necessary for spread of infection from pre-synaptic neurons to post-synaptic neurons in vivo (anterograde spread). Us9 mutants apparently are defective in anterograde spread in neural circuits because essential viral membrane proteins such as gB are not transported to axon terminals to facilitate spread to the connected neuron. By contrast, gE and gI mutants manifest their phenotype because these proteins most likely function at the axon terminal of the infected neuron to promote spread. These two sets of experiments are consistent with a model for herpesvirus spread in neurons first suggested by Cunningham and colleagues where capsids and envelope proteins, but not whole virions, are transported separately into the axon.     

A new approach for the diagnosis of hog cholera

Pestiviruses were isolated from seven cases of suspect hog cholera. Using peroxidase conjugates of monoclonal antibodies (Mabs) six isolates were identified as hog cholera viruses (HCV), while one isolate was of ruminant origin, possibly bovine viral diarrhea virus. In parallel attempts were made to develop an ELISA for the detection of HCV-specific antibodies in pig sera. The Mab HCTC26 coated to polystyrol plates efficiently captured the major viral glycoprotein gp53 from crude antigen suspensions prepared from infected cells. The immobilized gp53 served as diagnostic antigen. Five pigs experimentally infected with the HCV strain Glentorf were sequentially bled and the development of antibodies was monitored by neutralization tests and the ELISA. Results showed that both tests detected antibodies simultaneously after infection. Titres measured by ELISA were slightly higher than those registered by neutralization.     

猪丁型冠状病毒S1-CTD相互作用宿主蛋白的筛选和鉴定

猪丁型冠状病毒纤突蛋白S1亚基C端结合域(S1-CTD)是诱导中和抗体产生的主要区域,为研究与其相互作用的宿主蛋白,采用HEK-293T真核表达系统表达并纯化了S1-CTD,提取了猪回肠上皮细胞膜蛋白,通过免疫共沉淀筛选了可能与S1-CTD相互作用的蛋白并进行质谱分析,发现32个疑似相互作用的宿主蛋白。构建其中可能与S1-CTD互作的蛋白KIF1 binding protein (KIFBP)的真核表达质粒,通过免疫共沉淀和激光共聚焦验证上述宿主蛋白与S1-CTD是否存在相互作用,结果表明KIFBP和S1-CTD之间存在相互作用,共同转染时在细胞质共定位。进一步研究表明,过表达KIFBP能够有效降低病毒RNA水平和病毒滴度,其中mRNA水平降低了约70%,病毒滴度降低了10^1.6TCID₅₀。综上,本研究筛选并鉴定出一种与PDCoV S1-CTD相互作用的宿主蛋白KIFBP,为了解PDCoV的致病机制提供了理论基础。

Characterization of the C-terminal sequence of NS5A necessary for the assembly and production of classical swine fever virus infectious particles

Recent studies show that classical swine fever virus (CSFV) NS5A is an essential replicase component, but it is not known how NS5A participates in viral particle production. In this study, deletion and substitution mutations were introduced into the C-terminus of CSFV NS5A. The efficiency of Core protein release and extracellular and intracellular infectivity levels were assessed and NS5A–Core interaction was investigated. These results suggested that CSFV NS5A was a key factor for the assembly of infectious CSFV particles. The C-terminal sequence from amino acids 478 to 487 and amino acids S481 and T482 were necessary for CSFV assembly and production. The effect of NS5A on CSFV assembly and production might be related to NS5A–Core interaction. T482 was found to be conserved in the C-terminus of NS5A proteins of pestiviruses and hepatitis C virus (HCV), therefore suggesting that it might be important for these virus assembly and production.     

Comparison of the viral proteins of canine parvovirus-2, mink enteritis virus and feline panleukopenia virus

Canine parvovirus-2 (CPV-2), Mink enteritis virus (MEV) and feline panleukopenia virus (FPV) were produced using identical cell culture and purification techniques. The distributions of the haemagglutinating activity of the three different parvoviruses in a CsCl gradient were similar with haemagglutinating peaks identified at 1.48–1.49, 1.42, 1.36 and 1.30–1.31 g cm^?3. The number and distribution of the viral proteins and the equivalent protein molecular weights are similar for all three viruses in SDS-polyacrylamide gels (10%). Four viral proteins were identified and their molecular weights were determined: protein A (77 500–79 500), protein B (63 000–63 500), protein C (61 500–63 000) and protein D (50 000–55 000). The viral protein D although reported for some other parvoviruses has not previously been demonstrated in CPV-2, MEV or FPV.
