Molecular investigation on the presence of canine parvovirus in Egypt

Canine parvovirus type 2 (CPV-2) causes a highly contagious gastroenteritis disease of dogs and wild canids. To investigate the CPV-2 prevalence in Dakahlia Governorate, Egypt, a total of 50 fecal swabs were collected from suspected diseased dogs during 2016–2017. Out of 50 collected samples, 35 samples (70 %) presented positive results for CPV-2 using immuno-chromatography (IC) as a rapid test. CPV-2DNA was detected in 42 samples (84 %) by using polymerase chain reaction (PCR). The frequencies of CPV-2 were significantly higher in German shepherd breed (46 %; 23/50) and in age groups less than 6 months (76%; 38/50). We evaluated the breed, age, sex, rapid test results and clinical signs as predictors for classification of animal status into infected and not infected. The best predictors for classification process were rapid test result and clinical signs. Both CPV-2b and CPV-2c subtypes were detected by CPV2-VP2 gene sequences analysis. Deduced amino acid sequences alignment showed substitutions at 3 sites (Arg453Pro, Ala574Glu and Gln457Leu). Further investigations are needed to reveal the genetic and antigenic relation between field and vaccinal strains of CPV-2 in Egypt.     

兔抗犬细小病毒2a型多克隆抗体交叉保护研究

为探究犬细小病毒（canine parvovirus,CPV）血清型只有一种的条件下,常用疫苗CPV-2型和CPV-2a病毒免疫血清抗体对国内流行CPV-2a病毒的中和率,试验将藏獒源CPV-2a毒株（10⁵ TCID₅₀/100 μL）和CPV-2（10^4.5 TCID₅₀/100 μL）疫苗接于F81细胞增殖,PEG6000法浓缩制成免疫原,各免疫新西兰长白兔3只,间隔2周1次,共免疫4次。收集血清纯化制备多克隆抗体,通过血凝抑制试验（HI）和血清中和试验（SN）分别用2种抗体中和CPV-2、CPV-2a病毒,对两者保护率进行初步评价,并对本地感染CPV-2a的4只犬,每组2只进行治疗,每日跟踪白细胞消长规律。结果显示,CPV-2a多抗中和国内流行病毒CPV-2a的HI抗体、中和抗体水平都极显著高于CPV-2多抗（P<0.01）,而中和CPV-2病毒的HI抗体、中和抗体水平两者差异不显著（P>0.05）,CPV-2a多抗组治疗能较快恢复正常值,2组白细胞数有显著差异（P＜0.05）。结果表明,CPV-2a多抗与常用CPV-2型疫苗免疫抗体相比能高滴度的中和CPV-2a,更适用于中国犬细小病毒的防制,对研发新型生物制品有一定意义。     

广州地区犬细小病毒VP2基因的序列分析

犬细小病毒病是一种高度接触性传染病,临床上以急性出血性肠炎和心肌炎为特征。为研究广州地区犬细小病毒病的流行亚型,本试验采集2011—2012年间疑似病犬粪便,进行犬细小病毒（canine parvovirus,CPV）分离鉴定,提取病毒基因组进行VP2基因扩增和序列分析,与GenBank中登录的参考毒株进行比对,结果发现,分离的8株CPV中SCAU-5为CPV-2b 亚型,其余为CPV-2a亚型。结果表明,2011—2012年间广州地区的流行毒株以CPV-2a亚型为主。     

南宁地区犬细小病毒VP2基因的克隆及遗传进化分析

为了解广西南宁地区犬细小病毒（CPV）的流行现状与病毒变异情况,本试验对初步确诊为犬细小病毒病的12份阳性病料提取基因组DNA,以提取的基因组DNA为模板,通过PCR扩增VP2基因序列并测序,将12个阳性毒株样本VP2基因测序结果与GenBank中登录的17株国内外CPV分离株VP2基因进行同源性比对,采用Mega 7.0软件绘制遗传进化树,分析其病毒亚型和遗传进化情况。结果显示,成功扩增得到12个毒株样本的VP2基因片段,大小约1 755 bp,12株阳性样本毒株的VP2基因同源性在99.2%~100.0%之间,其中NN01与NN07、NN02与NN06同源性最高,为100.0%;阳性样本毒株与国内其他分离株VP2基因的同源性为97.6%~100.0%,其中NN08、NN10及NN04与CPV-ZJ1579同源性最高,均为100.0%,属于CPV-2a亚型;阳性样本毒株与国外代表性毒株同源性在98.1%~99.8%之间。遗传进化树分析表明,12个样本毒株中有3株属于CPV-2a亚型,3株属于CPV-2b亚型,6株属于CPV-2c亚型。这是继2018年初广西分离到CPV-2c型CPV后,首次发现南宁地区大规模流行CPV-2c亚型病毒,预示着CPV-2c亚型CPV在国内的流行正在增加。综上所述,广西南宁地区CPV-2a、CPV-2b与CPV-2c亚型并存,但CPV-2c亚型的比重比其他地区大,这也给该地区提供了新的防治信息,在实际CPV防控工作中除了对CPV-2a、CPV-2b等传统流行亚型的关注之外,更应该重视CPV-2c亚型CPV的防控。     

一株新分离犬细小病毒灭活疫苗的制备及免疫效果研究

JL0911株犬细小病毒是由军事兽医研究所流行病与病毒病防控技术实验室分离得到的一株新型犬细小病毒,其主要抗原位点上的氨基酸序列较国内先前分离到的其他株有较大差异,不能被归入目前已有的CPV-2a、CPV-2b、CPV-2c三个类型。本研究旨在利用JL0911株犬细小病毒研制灭活疫苗,并评价其免疫原性。试验采用10^5.5 TCID₅₀/mL的犬细小病毒JL0911,以甲醛灭活后,加入1/4体积的纳米佐剂,制备了犬细小病毒灭活疫苗。取1.5 mL上述疫苗,通过肌肉注射免疫普通家犬,免疫前后不同时间均采集血清,在F81细胞系上测定犬细小病毒的中和抗体。结果显示,免疫后14 d,试验犬血中细小病毒中和抗体效价较免疫前有显著提高,最高可由0提高至2⁹,表明本试验分离的JL0911株犬细小病毒具有生产犬细小病毒灭活疫苗的潜在价值。     

Do two current canine parvovirus type 2 and 2b vaccines provide protection against the new type 2c variant?

Three groups (n=9 or 10) of 12-week-old canine parvovirus type 2 (CPV-2) antibody-negative puppies were vaccinated: one group with a product containing modified-live CPV-2b (Galaxy DA2PPv; Schering-Plough Animal Health), one group with a product containing modified-live CPV-2 (Continuum DAP, Intervet), and one group (controls) with sterile saline. All puppies receiving CPV-2 and CPV-2b vaccines developed antibody as determined by the hemagglutination inhibition assay. All groups of puppies were challenged with a combination of virulent CPV-2b and CPV-2c 5 weeks after vaccination. All puppies in the CPV-2 and CPV-2b vaccinated groups were protected from disease, whereas all control group puppies developed disease and 50% died or were euthanized. This study demonstrated that the CPV-2 and CPV-2b vaccine components of the Continuum DAP and Galaxy DA2PPv products, respectively, provided protection against the CPV-2b virus and also provided complete protection against the new CPV-2c variant.     

Efficacy of an inactivated feline panleucopenia virus vaccine against a canine parvovirus isolated from a domestic cat

Canine parvovirus type 2a (CPV-2a) and type 2b (CPV-2b) have recently been isolated from cats throughout the world, and CPV-2b strain FP84 has been reported to be virulent in domestic cats. Although live feline panleucopenia virus (FPLV) vaccines protect domestic cats from CPV infection, the efficacy of inactivated FPLV vaccines has not been established. In this study, two domestic cats were vaccinated with a commercial inactivated FPLV vaccine and challenged with CPV-2b strain FP84 isolated from a domestic cat. The cats were protected against CPV-2b strain FP84 infection and their clinical signs were suppressed, although the two unvaccinated cats showed the typical clinical signs of parvovirus infection.     

Occurrence of canine parvovirus type 2c in the United States.

Canine parvovirus (CPV) type 2 (CPV-2) emerged around 1978 as a major pathogen of dogs worldwide. In the mid-1980s, the original CPV-2 had evolved and was completely replaced by 2 variants, CPV-2a and CPV-2b. In 2000, a new variant of CPV (named CPV-2c) was detected in Italy and now cocirculates with types 2a and 2b in that country. The CPV-2c has also been reported from single outbreaks in Vietnam and Spain. This study was conducted to determine if CPV-2c occurs in the United States. Thirty-three fecal samples were collected from dogs in 16 states between April 2006 and April 2007 and were tested for CPV using real-time polymerase chain reaction (PCR). Positive samples were further tested using conventional PCR and minor-groove binding TaqMan PCR assays to determine the viral type and to differentiate vaccine strains from field strains. Twenty-seven samples were positive for CPV, 7 of which were CPV-2c from 5 states: Arizona, California, Georgia, Oklahoma, and Texas. Of the 7 isolates, 4 differed from European CPV-2c isolates by 2 additional single-nucleotide mutations at positions 4076 and 4104, the latter of which produces a ThrAla change at residue 440 located near a major antigenic site. The coast-to-coast geographic distribution of the states in which CPV-2c was detected strongly suggests that this new CPV variant is probably widespread in the United States. The continuous evolution of CPV requires that monoclonal antibody-based and nucleic acid-based diagnostic assays should be periodically checked for sensitivity on prevalent CPV strains.     

Molecular characterization of canine parvovirus in Brazil by polymerase chain reaction assay

Canine parvovirus (CPV) was first isolated in 1978 in the USA. Analysis of CPV isolates by monoclonal antibodies and restriction enzymes have shown that after the first emergence of CPV (CPV-2) it evolved to give rise to new antigenic types, which were designated CPV type 2a and type 2b. These new types have replaced the original CPV type 2, although the proportions of each of the new antigenic types vary in different countries. In Brazil, CPV-like infections were first observed in 1979, however, there has been no information concerning the antigenic types of CPV prevailing in South America. In this study, we designed a PCR assay to type canine parvovirus strains in fecal samples collected from symptomatic dogs during 1980 through 1986 and 1990 through 1995. Our data showed that the CPV epizootic in Brazil followed the same pattern observed in the USA of emergence of CPV-2 followed by replacement by the variants CPV-2a and 2b. The predominant strain found during 1980 was CPV-2a, which was substantially replaced by CPV-2b from 1990 to 1995.     

Analysis of Clone and Prokaryotic Expression of Canine Parvovirus VP2 Gene

The study was aimed to investigate the epidemic situation of canine parvovirus in Hebei and Gansu provinces.VP2 protein was expressed by prokaryotic system and polyclonal antibodies were prepared, which provided a basis for the further researches on pathogenesis and therapy of canine parvovirus.Virus genomic DNA was extracted from 10 epidemic materials of suspected infected dogs and VP2 gene was amplified.The target fragments of VP2 gene were cloned to pET-30a vector after sequencing and analysis, then the positive expression plasmids were transformed into E.coli BL21 (DE3) cell.Polyclonal antibodies were prepared by immunizing guinea pigs with the SDS-PAGE identification of purified protein.The genetic analysis results showed that the VP2 gene was successfully cloned and 80% samples were belonged to CPV-2a and 20% samples were belonged to CPV-2b.The isolated strains of the test and part of China strains were gathered into a branch which had certain distance with strains of Korea and USA, and that had low homology with strains of Italy.SDS-PAGE results indicated that the recombinant protein with a molecular weight of 70 ku was expressed by prokaryotic system.Western blotting results showed that the recombinant protein had good immuneoreactivity and immunogenicity.The study indicated that CPV-2a was the predominant gene type in Hebei and Gansu provinces, meanwhile VP2 protein expressed by prokaryotic system had good antigenicity.This research provided a basis for the future study of the prevention and control of canine parvovirus.

Comparison of the pathogenicity in three different Korean canine parvovirus 2 (CPV-2) isolates

Canine parvovirus type 2 (CPV-2) is a major pathogen inducing acute hemorrhagic gastroenteritis in dogs. Despite the identification of numerous CPV-2 variants (from CPV-2a to CPV-2c), the pathogenic differences among the CPV-2 variants in dogs have not been evaluated. The aim of this study was to compare the pathogenicity of CPV-2 variants (CPV-2a-I, CPV-2a-V and CPV-2b) isolated mainly from Korea. We evaluated the pathogenicity of three different CPV-2 variants, by performing clinical, hematological, serological and histopathological examinations after experimentally inoculating three types of CPV-2 variants into young puppies. We found that the overall pathogenicity of the CPV-2a variants (CPV-2a-I and 2a-V) was severer compared to the CPV-2b variant. In addition, there was no significant difference in pathogenicity between the two CPV-2a variants. Our findings indicate that there are differences in the pathogenicity of CPV-2 variants in dogs, which may be useful to understand the different pathobiology of the CPV-2 variants.     

Chronological analysis of canine parvovirus type 2 isolates in Japan

Fifty-five canine parvovirus type 2 (CPV) samples, 12 fecal specimens and 43 cell culture isolates, were examined for their genetic characteristics of VP2 gene. They were collected from the diseased dogs at various districts of Japan during 27 years from 1980 to 2006. A fragment of VP2 gene was analyzed by restriction fragment length polymorphism assay and DNA sequencing. The original antigenic type 2 of CPV (CPV-2) was no longer found in the samples since 1984, and two antigenic variants CPV-2a and CPV-2b replaced CPV-2 as predominant types for about 5 years from 1982. A new genetic variant of prototype CPV-2a with non-synonymous substitution at the VP2 amino acid residue 297 from Ser to Ala was first detected in 1987. New CPV-2b with the same amino acid substitution at position 297 as new CPV-2a was also detected from the samples collected in 1997. Since then new CPV-2b has been the predominant CPV over the field of Japan. Several additional amino acid substitutions were detected in the VP2 gene of some recent CPV strains. Neither CPV-2c(a), CPV-2c(b), nor "Glu-426" of the antigenic variants previously found outside the country was detected in any samples tested. Reactivity of new CPV-2a and 2b variants against antibodies produced by the current vaccine products was determined by a cross hemagglutination-inhibition test. The recent field CPV isolates reacted more efficiently to the antibodies produced in dogs vaccinated with the new CPV-2b vaccine strain than the conventional CPV-2 vaccine strain.     

Genetic complexity and multiple infections with more Parvovirus species in naturally infected cats

ABSTRACT: Parvoviruses of carnivores include three closely related autonomous parvoviruses: canine parvovirus (CPV), feline panleukopenia virus (FPV) and mink enteritis virus (MEV). These viruses cause a variety of serious diseases, especially in young patients, since they have a remarkable predilection for replication in rapidly dividing cells. FPV is not the only parvovirus species which infects cats; in addition to MEV, the new variants of canine parvovirus, CPV-2a, 2b and 2c have also penetrated the feline host-range, and they are able to infect and replicate in cats, causing diseases indistinguishable from feline panleukopenia. Furthermore, as cats are susceptible to both CPV-2 and FPV viruses, superinfection and co-infection with multiple parvovirus strains may occur, potentially facilitating recombination and high genetic heterogeneity. In the light of the importance of cats as a potential source of genetic diversity for parvoviruses and, since feline panleukopenia virus has re-emerged as a major cause of mortality in felines, the present study has explored the molecular characteristics of parvovirus strains circulating in cat populations. The most significant findings reported in this study were (a) the detection of mixed infection FPV/CPV with the presence of one parvovirus variant which is a true intermediate between FPV/CPV and (b) the quasispecies cloud size of one CPV sample variant 2c. In conclusion, this study provides new important results about the evolutionary dynamics of CPV infections in cats, showing that CPV has presumably started a new process of readaptation in feline hosts.     

犬细小病毒南京分离株基因型分析

采用PCR技术对不同来源的犬细小病毒毒株进行了基因型鉴定,发现所鉴定的1982~2004年的5株犬细小病毒南京分离株和荷兰Intervet疫苗株(CPV-V154)均为CPV-2b亚型,而且相互之间的同源性均高于98.4%。     

Genomic Typing of Canine Parvovirus Circulating in the State of Rio de Janeiro,Brazil from 1995 to 2001 Using Polymerase Chain Reaction Assay

In this study, the genomic types of canine parvovirus (CPV) circulating in the State of Rio de Janeiro, Brazil, from 1995 to 2001, were investigated using the polymerase chain reaction assay (PCR). A total of 78 faecal samples from gastroenteritic puppies, confirmed as positive for canine parvovirus by haemagglutination/haemagglutination inhibition tests or virus isolation in cell culture (MDCK), were examined. The viral DNA was extracted from faecal samples using a combination of phenol– chloroform and silica–guanidine thiocyanate methods. PCR was carried out with differential pairs of primers to distinguish the old (CPV-2) and new types of virus (CPv-2a or CPV-2b). Specific amplicons were observed for all samples using the primer pair P2ab, which detects CPV-2a and CPV-2b. Seventy-six from a total of 78 samples (97%) were considered as CPV-2b because of their reaction with the primer pair P2b. Thirty samples (30/78) were from previously vaccinated puppies and in 15 of them the enteritis symptoms began from 1 to 12 days after vaccination. PCR confirmed the infection by wild virus (CPV-2b) in 5 of these 15 puppies who had received old-type vaccines. Our results show that CPV-2b was the prevalent type circulating in the State of Rio de Janeiro from 1995 to 2001.     

Antigenic and genetic analysis of canine parvoviruses in southern Africa

Canine parvovirus (CPV) is a significant pathogen of domestic and free-ranging carnivores all over the world. It suddenly appeared at the end of the 1970s and most likely emerged as a variant of the well known feline panleukopenia virus (FPV). During its adaptation to the new host, the domestic-dog, the virus has changed its antigenic profile twice giving rise to two new antigenic types, CPV-2a and CPV-2b. These new types have replaced the original type CPV-2 in the United States of America, Europe and Japan. However, no data about the prevalence of the new antigenic types on the African continent are available. In this study, 128 recent parvovirus isolates from South Africa and Namibia were antigenically typed with type-specific monoclonal antibodies. No original CPV-2 viruses were found and its complete replacement by the new antigenic types conforms to the situation in other parts of the world. The predominant strain found in southern Africa was CPV-2b (66%), which differs from the situation in Europe and Japan where CPV-2a is the most prevalent type. Analysis of the capsid protein DNA-sequences of four selected African isolates gave no hint of a specific African parvovirus lineage.     

Oxidative stress indices in gastroenteritis in dogs with canine parvoviral infection

Gastroenteritis of viral origin has emerged as a major cause of morbidity and mortality in dogs during the last two decades. Amongst the viral etiologies responsible for gastroenteritis in dogs, canine parvovirus (CPV) is considered as the most pathogenic. The disease is characterized by hemorrhagic enteritis, bloody diarrhoea and myocarditis in young pups. The present study was carried out to examine alterations in oxidative stress indices in the erythrocytes from dogs suffering from gastroenteritis with or without canine parvoviral infection as confirmed by CPV-DNA amplification from faeces using specific primers for CPV-2 as well as CPV-2a and CPV-2b variants by polymerase chain reaction (PCR). The present investigation utilized clinical cases of dogs with signs of acute diarrhea (n = 56), and 14 more apparently healthy dogs of similar age group. Erythrocytic oxidative stress indices such as lipid peroxides level and antioxidant enzymes like superoxide dismutase and catalase activity, and blood micro-mineral (iron, copper, cobalt and zinc) status were analyzed in each dog (n = 70). The acute cases of gastroenteritis in dogs were associated with altered erythrocytic lipid peroxidation as evident by estimation of malonaldehyde (MDA) concentration. The activities of antioxidant enzymes catalase and superoxide dismutase, the first line of antioxidant defense against damaging effects of free radicals, were also altered. The alterations in oxidative stress indices were more pronounced in cases with involvement of canine parvovirus as compared to parvo-negative cases. Our results also revealed decreased blood zinc level in diarrhoea in dogs irrespective of involvement of canine parvovirus.
