致麻鸭产蛋下降的副粘病毒的分离和鉴定

从浙江省某麻鸭养殖基地产蛋锐减的病鸭生殖器官分离到1株致产蛋下降、不致鸭死亡的病毒株(YH99V)。该病毒易感蛋鸭，经SPF鸡胚传至第9代时致病性突然增强，第11代出现对鸡红细胞的血凝特性，通常在42～80h致死SPF鸡胚，EF15EID50为10^1.8。经磷钨酸负染电镜观察，YH99V粒子呈现圆形、杆状形、葫芦状形等多形态，直径70～400nm不等，病毒外表有囊膜，囊膜外层有排列整齐的纤突。病毒粒子和包涵体位于细胞浆内。病毒抵抗力由弱到强依次为：0．2%甲醛、24h-56℃、45min→紫外线、1h→乙醚≈氯仿≈37℃、16h—pH9→pH5→1％Try。对人眼结膜易感，鸭眼结膜不易感。接种传代细胞BHK-21、IBRS-2均能引起细胞病变。YH99V株与同样引起鸭产蛋下降的AIV、鸭源EDSV无抗原相关性，而能被禽副粘病毒Ⅰ型阳性血清中和。根据试验结果，初步将YH99V判定为鸭副粘病毒。

The IMPDH inhibitors,ribavirin and mycophenolic acid,inhibit peste des petits ruminants virus infection

Peste des petits ruminants virus (PPRV) causes highly contagious diseases in domestic and particular wild small ruminants, leading to substantial economic loss. The development of effective and cheap antiviral medications shall help to circumvent this emerging burden. In this study, we found that ribavirin, a competitive inosine-5’-monophosphate dehydrogenase (IMPDH) inhibitor, significantly inhibits the replication of PPRV. As IMPDH is a key enzyme in purine nucleotide synthesis, supplementation of exogenous guanosine attenuate the anti-PPRV effect of ribavirin. Interestingly, an uncompetitive IMPDH inhibitor, mycophenolic acid (MPA), exerted more potent antiviral effect again PPRV. Similarly, this effect was largely restored upon supplementation of guanosine. Thus, we have demonstrated that the IMPDH inhibitors ribavirin and MPA combat PPRV infection through purine nucleotide depletion. Because both regimens have been widely used in the clinic for treating viral infection or organ rejection in transplantation patients for decades, respectively, repurposing these existing safe and cheap medications may provide a new avenue for combating PPRV infection.     

Effect of gut stress induced by oxidized wheat gluten on the growth performance,gut morphology and oxidative states of broilers

This study was to investigate the effect of oxidized wheat gluten (OG) on growth performance, gut morphology and its oxidative states of broilers. One hundred and eighty‐day‐old male broilers (10 chicks/pen) were randomly allocated into three dietary treatments: control diet (CON), diet with 8% wheat gluten (WG) and diet with 8% OG with six pens/treatment. Body weight (BW) (21 and 35 days) and average daily gain (ADG) (1–21 days and 22–35 days) decreased (p < .05) and feed conversion ratio (FCR) (1–21 days and 22–35 days) increased (p < .05) in OG treatment. Feed intake (FI) decreased (p < .05) in WG and OG treatments during 22–35 days. However, FI was not influenced by dietary treatments during 1–21 days (p > .05). The OG‐fed broilers had a lower faecal pH value (p < .05) and higher faecal moisture content (p < 05) at 14, 21, 28 and 35 days. Villus height, crypt depth and V/C value were not different (p > .05) among treatments at 21 and 35 days. Lipid peroxidation (LPO) (21 and 35 days) and malondialdehyde (MDA) (35 days) content in crop of OG treatment increased (p < .05). Oxidized glutathione (GSSG) (21 days), LPO (21 and 35 days) and MDA (21 and 35 days) content in ileum of OG treatment increased (p < .05). The reduced glutathione/oxidized glutathione (GSH/GSSG) (21 days) and (GSH) (35 days) in ileum of OG treatment decreased (p < .05). The present findings indicate that OG might be a stressor for broiler gut, which could induce oxidative stress both in crop and in ileum, and the diarrhoea as well. The growth performance of broiler was consequently depressed.
