2006—2012年鲁豫冀地区15株猪繁殖与呼吸综合征病毒的分离鉴定及ORF5/Nsp2基因的遗传变异分析

为研究鲁豫冀地区猪繁殖与呼吸综合征病毒(porcine reproductive and respiratory syndrome virus,PRRSV)的遗传变异情况,对2006—2012年来自3省区发病猪场的42份样品进行PRRSV分离鉴定,并进行了生物学特性研究和PCR鉴定,结果显示先后分离到15株PRRSV。分别采用RT-PCR扩增其ORF5基因和部分Nsp2基因并测序,与GenBank中68个ORF5序列和40个Nsp2序列的推导氨基酸序列进行比对,遗传变异分析结果表明,15株分离株均属于美洲型毒株,其中13个毒株Nsp2基因推导的氨基酸序列均存在氨基酸的不连续缺失,其ORF5基因推导的氨基酸序列与JXA1株有较高的同源性(95.5%~97.5%);SDDY2007株与疫苗株RespPRRS MLV和VR2332株亲缘关系相近,处于同一个亚群中;而HN25-2009分离株Nsp2基因推导的氨基酸序列有30个氨基酸的特征性缺失,其ORF5基因推导的氨基酸序列的遗传进化分析结果显示该分离株处于VR2332所在亚群(氨基酸同源性97.5%),具有一定特殊性。本试验结果表明,2006—2012年高致病性PRRSV是鲁豫冀地区的优势流行毒株,且存在疫苗毒株,3省区流行毒株间有一定遗传差异,但无明显地域特征。     

Association between the genetic similarity of the open reading frame 5 sequence of Porcine reproductive and respiratory syndrome virus and the similarity in clinical signs of Porcine reproductive and respiratory syndrome in Ontario swine herds

A study of Ontario swine farms positive for Porcine reproductive and respiratory syndrome virus (PRRSV) tested the association between genetic similarity of the virus and similarity of clinical signs reported by the herd owner. Herds were included if a positive result of polymerase chain reaction for PRRSV at the Animal Health Laboratory at the University of Guelph, Guelph, Ontario, was found between September 2004 and August 2007. Nucleotide-sequence similarity and clinical similarity, as determined from a telephone survey, were calculated for all pairs of herds. The Mantel test indicated that clinical similarity and sequence similarity were weakly correlated for most clinical signs. The generalized additive model indicated that virus homology with 2 vaccine viruses affected the association between sequence similarity and clinical similarity. When the data for herds with vaccine-like virus were removed from the dataset there was a significant association between virus similarity and similarity of the reported presence of abortion, stillbirth, preweaning mortality, and sow/boar mortality. Ownership similarity was also found to be associated with virus similarity and with similarity of the reported presence of sows being off-feed, nursery respiratory disease, nursery mortality, finisher respiratory disease, and finisher mortality. These results indicate that clinical signs of PRRS are associated with PRRSV genotype and that herd ownership is associated with both of these.     

Genetic diversity analysis of the ORF5 gene in porcine reproductive and respiratory syndrome virus samples from South China

To understand the genetic diversity of porcine reproductive and respiratory syndrome virus (PRRSV) in South China, we collected 231 clinical samples from pigs with suspected PRRSV infection in Guangdong between 2007 and 2009. We found that 74 of 231 samples were positive by RT-PCR. The PCR products of the ORF5 gene of 35 isolates from different farms were sequenced and their DNA sequences were compared to 23 other PRRSV isolates in the GenBank. We found that the nucleotide similarity among all South China isolates ranged from 87.6% to 100%, and all belonged to the North American genotype. Most of them were classified into subgenotype I, but the rest mapped to subgenotypes III, V or VI. Those in subgenotypes I and III were found to be highly variable in the primary neutralising epitope (PNE) with a specific amino acid mutation (F39/L39→I39), and a few isolates in subgenotypes I and III isolates also had a mutation at L41 (L41→S41). PRRSV isolates in subgenotypes III, V and VI had less potential glycosylation sites than those in subgenotype I. Our data contribute to the understanding of molecular variation of PRRSV in South China.     

两株高致病性PRRSV湖北分离株ORF5与Nsp2基因序列分析

2013年从湖北两个发病猪场采集疑似猪繁殖与呼吸综合征病料,接种Marc-145细胞,可致明显细胞病变,各分离到1株猪繁殖与呼吸综合征病毒(HBHS株和HBXN株)。采用RTPCR方法,对ORF5基因序列和Nsp2基因部分序列进行扩增并测序,并用DNA MAN软件将测序结果与国内外发表的13株参考毒株进行比对分析。结果显示,2株分离株Nsp2基因与国内高致病性JXA1、GD2007、GD2008毒株的氨基酸同源性很高,介于98.5%~99.5%;且该基因与国内其他变异株有完全一致的缺失特征;ORF5基因与国内高致病性毒株的氨基酸同源性为98.1%~99.5%,且系统进化树遗传距离很近,同处一个基因群中,而与CH-1a等经典毒株较远。这两株分离株均属于PRRSV美洲型变异株,此结论为该病的防治及疫苗的设计奠定了基础。

为研究猪繁殖与呼吸综合征病毒(PRRSV)在我国华东地区的遗传变异情况和发展趋势,本研究对2004年～2009年分离鉴定的38株PRRSV流行株NSP2基因高变异区进行序列测定及分析.38株PRRSV分离株核苷酸同源性为71.6%～99.6%,推导的氨基酸同源性为63.7%～98.3%,共分为5种基因缺失类型.系统进化分析表明:38个分离株按基因序列可分为NSP2基因亚型Ⅰ和Ⅱ,其中,28株属于NSP2基因亚型Ⅰ,各病毒株均具有至少30个氨基酸的缺失,基因同源性为92.9%～99.2%;10株属于NSP2基因亚型Ⅱ,均具有1个或不具有氨基酸的缺失,基因同源性为76.5%～99.6%.流行株显示由基因亚型Ⅱ逐渐向基因亚型Ⅰ变异的趋势,并且NSP2核苷酸的缺失数量呈上升趋势.由此显示,我国PRRSV流行株NSP2基因变异较大,并不断出现新的变化,因此,加强PRRSV流行株基因变异的监测十分必要.     

Associations between genetics, farm characteristics and clinical disease in field outbreaks of porcine reproductive and respiratory syndrome virus

Porcine reproductive and respiratory syndrome (PRRS) is a disease of domestic swine characterized by exceptionally high clinical variability. This study addresses the question of whether clinical variability in PRRS results from (a) genetic variation among viral isolates and/or (b) variation in management practices among farms on which isolates are found. Genetic data (open reading frame 5 gene sequences) and data on farm characteristics and associated clinical disease signs were collected for 62 PRRS virus (PRRSV) field isolates, representing 52 farms. Clinical disease signs were interrelated — confirming that a true reproductive syndrome exists (involving abortions, infertility in sows, deaths of sows and preweaning mortality).

Pairs of farms experiencing deaths in their sow populations also tended to share viral isolates which were more similar to one another than expected by chance alone. This implies that sow death (one of the more-severe manifestations of PRRS) is under genetic influence. Large herd size was a significant risk factor for the death of sows and for respiratory disease in nursery pigs. All-in–all-out management practices in the nursery were protective against reproductive signs in the sow herd. All-in–all-out management practices in the finishing stages of production were protective against respiratory disease in nursery pigs — but were paradoxically associated with an increased risk of infertility in sows. These results suggest that farm-management practices can also influence which PRRS clinical signs are manifested during an outbreak. In general, signs associated with PRRS appear to result from a combination of genetic factors and herd-management characteristics. The relative contributions of these two influences differ depending on the specific clinical sign in question.     

猪繁殖与呼吸综合征病毒(PRRSV)协同感染细菌性疾病的分析研究

为了解湖北某养殖场猪繁殖与呼吸综合征病毒（porcine reproductive and respiratory syndrome virus,PRRSV）流行毒株的遗传变异和临床感染情况,试验采集10份疑似PRRS发病仔猪的肺脏、淋巴结等临床样品,应用RT-PCR方法扩增PRRSV的Nsp2部分基因用于定性检测分析,并对扩增的其中2份PRRSV阳性样品进行ORF5基因核苷酸序列测定,结合不同疫苗毒株开展同源性比对分析。为进一步揭示病因,通过多重PCR方法对10份发病猪的肺脏和12份鼻拭子样品进行了相关致病菌的鉴定,并对其中的2株不同病原菌开展药敏试验。结果显示,10份临床样品中有5份检测到美洲型变异PRRSV,病原阳性率为50%。ORF5全基因序列分析表明,2个流行毒株间的核苷酸同源性为99.7%,与以TJM-F92、JXA1-R、HuN4-F112等为代表的高致病性致弱疫苗毒株核苷酸同源性最高,为96.7%~97.0%;与美洲型标准毒株VR2332的同源性分别为87.6%和87.9%;与国内较早分离的经典毒株（CH-1R和R98株）的核苷酸同源性分别为92.9%和87.4%、87.7%。患病猪临床常见感染模式为PRRSV+PM+SS、PRRSV+PM或PRRSV+HPS,2株主要致病菌药敏试验表明,多杀性巴氏杆菌对头孢曲松、阿莫西林等药物高度敏感,猪链球菌对阿莫西林、氨苄西林、阿奇霉素等药物高度敏感。本研究揭示了该场保育猪的发病病原,并从分子水平明确了临床PRRSV与不同疫苗毒株的亲缘关系,为弱毒疫苗的合理选择使用和综合防控PRRS提供了实践依据。     

Genetic typing of bovine viral diarrhoea virus isolates from India

Thirteen BVDV isolates collected in four geographic regions of India between 2000 and 2002 were typed in 5'-UTR. To confirm results of genetic typing, selected viruses were also analysed in the N(pro) region. Phylogenetic analysis revealed that all Indian BVDV isolates belong to BVDV-1b (Osloss-like group). Despite a long distance between the farms from which the viruses were isolated there was no correlation between the origin of viral isolates and their position in a phylogenetic tree. Higher genetic similarity of Indian BVDV isolates was observed most probably due to the uncontrolled movement of cattle as well as the uncontrolled use of semen from bulls for breeding of local and farm cattle in different states of India.

Spatial and genotypic clustering of Salmonella over time in a swine production unit

Transmission patterns of Salmonella in a swine production unit were investigated by statistical analysis of the spatial distribution of isolates and the clustering of genotypes over a 12-week period. The study unit was a breeding-gestation building in a single-site farrow-to-finish swine production system. During the summer of 2003, 1746 pen floor samples were collected during 6 visits conducted at 2-week intervals. Genotyping was performed on the 107 Salmonella isolates obtained using repetitive sequence PCR (3 primers: REP, BOX, ERIC). Genetic similarity was evaluated by DNA fragment matching and hierarchical cluster analysis based on genetic similarities. For each visit, the distance at which spatial clustering of Salmonella isolates occurred was estimated using second order analyses. Significant spatial clustering of Salmonella up to a distance of 15.2m was identified for 4 of the 6 farm visits, those for which the prevalence of Salmonella was the highest. Cluster analysis of genetic similarities identified 4 groups of Salmonella isolates at the level of at least 85% similarity in rep-PCR fragment matching patterns. Genetic clusters were relatively homogeneous for time of visit, with each genetic cluster consisting of isolates from the same or temporally adjacent visits. The correlation between genetic similarity and spatial proximity between pairs of Salmonella isolates, and the correlation between these measures and differences in time of sampling, were evaluated using Mantel's r. There was a strong positive correlation (r=0.62, p<0.0001) between genetic distance and time of sampling, indicating evolution of the Salmonella population over time. For 4 of the 6 visits, a pattern of decreasing genetic similarity between isolates with increasing distance between sampling locations was apparent. However, when viewed over all 6 visits, Salmonella was concentrated in one area of the building and did not move in any specific direction. These results suggest that a particular genotype of Salmonella, if introduced in the breeding-gestation unit of a swine farm would evolve slowly over short time intervals; its spatial distribution would be limited primarily to adjacent or nearby pens. In this study spatial analysis (e.g., Ripley's K-function) and matrix correlation methods (e.g., Mantel's r) expanded upon cluster analysis of genotypic similarities to provide additional interpretable information regarding the spatial distances to which Salmonella is transmitted over time in swine production facilities.     

2018年广东部分地区猪繁殖与呼吸综合征病毒流行毒株ORF5基因变异分析

Significance of genetic variation of PRRSV ORF5 in virus neutralization and molecular determinants corresponding to cross neutralization among PRRS viruses

A high rate of genetic and antigenic variability among porcine reproductive and respiratory syndrome viruses (PRRSVs) hampers effective prevention and control of the disease caused by PRRSV. The major envelope protein (GP5) encoded by the ORF5 of PRRSV has a critical role in inducing virus neutralizing (VN) antibody and cross protection among different strains of PRRSV. This study was conducted to identify sequence elements related to cross neutralization by comparing the ORF5 sequences of 69 field isolates in conjunction with their susceptibility to VN antibody raised against the VR2332 strain in vitro and in vivo. Five common variable sites (amino acid position 32–34, 38–39, 57–59, 137 and 151) were identified between susceptible and resistant viral isolates. Mutants whose ORF5 amino acid sequences were substituted with the sequences corresponding to the 5 identified common variable sites individually or concurrently were generated from a VR2332-backboned infectious clone by site mutagenesis. The change in the susceptibility of the mutants to VN antibodies specific for VR2332 or a heterologous PRRSV was assessed to determine the association of those 5 identified sites with cross neutralization. Among the five sites, the changes of amino acid sequences at three sites (32–34, 38–39, and 57–59) located in the N-terminal ectodomain of ORF5 significantly influenced the susceptibility of the mutant viruses to VN antibody, suggesting that sequence homology at these sites can be utilized as genetic markers to predict the degree of cross neutralization among different PRRSVs.     

猪繁殖与呼吸综合征病毒与副猪嗜血杆菌混合感染的诊断

Genetic comparison of Brucella canis isolates by the MLVA assay in South Korea

The multiple-locus VNTR analysis (MLVA) assay is a method frequently employed as a molecular epidemiological tool for Brucella genetic fingerprinting. The purpose of this study was to assess the genotyping of 77 B. canis isolates from 14 different dog breeding farms in Korea by the MLVA assay and to compare the epidemiological relationships between the Korean isolates and foreign ones. Simpson's diversity index for 17 loci showed a range from 0 to 0.846 in 77 B. canis isolates. B. canis isolates in Korea were observed to have high genetic diversity at the most variable loci and were divided into 30 distinct genotypes by phylogenetic analysis. Some B. canis isolates were closely related to previously typed isolates in other countries. The MLVA assay can be helpful to analyze the epidemiological correlation of B. canis isolates in domestic pet animals and to track the geographic origin by comparing the genetic patterns with foreign isolates. Therefore, the MLVA assay will be useful as a tool for control and preventive measures of canine brucellosis.     

Evaluation of enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) and immunofluorescent antibody (IFA) test for the detection of porcine reproductive and respiratory syndrome virus (PRRSV) antibody in pigs from conventional farms

To evaluate the immunofluorescent antibody (IFA) test and enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) for detecting the porcine reproductive and respiratory syndrome virus (PRRSV) antibody, conventional pigs in PRRSV-positive and -negative commercial farms were examined. Antibody development patterns in ELISA and IFA tests were compared in 3 week old piglets experimentally infected with the PRRSV. The virus was detected from 2 days post infection (PI) and then the antibody titers and S/P ratios rose by both methods. A total of 208 serum samples were collected from 4 PRRSV-negative farms and 210 samples from PRRSV-positive farms, and were tested for the PRRSV antibody by IFA and ELISA. The titer of 64 should be set as the cut-off point in IFA for field sera. Similarly, the cut-off S/P ratio should be set at 0.4 in ELISA. A high degree of correlation was observed between antibody titers by the two methods in these 418 samples, with a correlation coefficient of 0.84. The coincidence rate between the two tests was 84.7% (354/418). In non-coincident cases, ELISA was able to detect the antibody with a low titer in the serum samples which were negative in IFA but from PRRSV positive farms. ELISA was more sensitive than IFA to detect PRRSV infected animals or farms.
