4株鸡传染性法氏囊病病毒VP2基因序列分析

试验从发病鸡场分离获得4株鸡传染性法氏囊病病毒（infectious bursal disease virus,IBDV）,分别为河北株（HB）、湖北株（HUB）、山东株（SD）、山西株（SX）。通过特异性引物扩增VP2基因并进行测序,序列分析结果显示,4株病毒中,HUB、SD和SX的七肽区为S-W-S-A-S-G-S（aa 326S-332S）,其222（A）、256（I）、294（I）和299（S）位是传染性法氏囊病病毒超强毒株（vvIBDV）的4个特征性氨基酸,确定这3株病毒均为超强毒株;而HB株七肽区为S-W-S-A-R-G-S（aa 326S-332S）,其222（P）、256（V）、294（L）和299（N）位氨基酸显示该毒株属于弱毒株。进化树分析结果显示,HUB、SD和SX 3株病毒与2011年中国分离的大部分IBDV毒株亲缘关系较近,同源性在96%以上,同时与经典毒株Cro-Po/00、超强毒株GX和UK661亲缘关系很近;而HB株与减毒疫苗株D78株和B87株的亲缘关系近。本试验结果表明,IBDV目前在中国流行呈混发型,但以超强毒株为主。

CARDIAC MAGNETIC RESONANCE IMAGING OF PATENT DUCTUS ARTERIOSUS IN THREE DOGS

Patent ductus arteriosus (PDA) is the most common congenital cardiovascular disorder in dogs and requires an accurate diagnosis for an appropriate treatment. Cardiac MRI (cMRI) has been reported as a method for characterization of canine thoracic vasculature. However, to the authors’ knowledge, no published studies describe evaluation of canine PDA through cMRI. Three dogs were selected for this exploratory study. Electrocardiogram gating and breath‐hold techniques were performed using a 3T MR scanner. Both black blood imaging and bright blood cine acquisitions were performed. Quantification of stroke volume (SV) and shunting volume were calculated using a stack of short‐axis cine images. Additional 4D (three‐spatial dimensions plus time)‐TRAK (time‐resolved MR angiography with keyhole) sequences were conducted in patient 2 to verify other vasculature abnormality. Black blood images clearly depicted the course of the ductus from the descending aorta to the pulmonary artery in all three dogs. Morphological evaluation of PDA classified patients 1 and 2 as Type 2a and patient 3 as Type 1. Patient 2 was confirmed to have a concurrent persistent left cranial vena cava. Left ventricular SV, right ventricular SV, and left‐to‐right SV ratio were 12.4 ml, 3.36 ml, and 3.704, respectively, in patient 1; 6.85 ml, 1.22 ml, and 5.60 in the patient 2; and 3.67 ml, 2.14 ml, and 1.702 in patient 3. Findings indicated that cMRI is a feasible method for characterizing the morphology of PDA and extracardiac vasculature anomalies in dogs.     

Epitope Mapping and Immuno-detection of VP7 Protein of Bluetongue Virus Serotype 1

In this study,in order to map the key amino epitope of VP7 protein of blue tongue virus serotype 1 (BTV1),we used monoclonal antibody against VP7 protein of BTV1 to screen 7 mer phage display random peptide library. The selected phages including VP7 protein consensus sequence were amplified and purified,immunoreactivity between epitope of selected phages and monoclonal antibody against VP7 of BTV1 was analyzed by ELISA and competitive ELISA (c-ELISA).The result showed that the epitope of phages including LNWPMVR sequence could specially combine monoclonal antibody against VP7 of BTV1,and the combination could be inhibited or blocked by BTV1,it demonstrated that 7 mer phage simulated the antigenic determinant of BTV protein which could combine monoclonal antibody against VP7 of BTV1.The results suggested that the amino acides 163 to 189(LNAGARGDVQQIFQGRNDPMMLYLVWR) were the specific epitope of VP7 protein of BTV.     

Prokaryotic Expression and Immunoreactivity Analysis of VP2 Protein of Bluetongue Virus Serotype 1

The study was aimed to test the immunoreactivity of the VP2 protein of bluetongue virus serotype 1 (BTV-1) in vitro. Based on the published BTV-1 L2 gene of Y863 strain, specific cloning PCR primers were designed and synthesized. The L2 gene was amplified through RT-PCR method and then was purified and cloned into the expressing vector pEASY-Blunt E1. The cloned recombinant plasmids were identified. The positive recombinant L2 plasmid was cloned into BL21(DE3) competent cells to express VP2 protein. The acquired purified recombinant BTV-1 VP2 protein was analyzed through the methods of Western blotting, ELISA and blocking ELISA. The results showed that:BTV-1 VP2 protein was expressed as the inclusion bodies in the pEASY-Blunt E1 vector; 160 and 200 mmol/L glyoxaline were the best condition to wash down the expressed protein. The molecular weight of this purified recombinant protein with N-terminal His-tag was about 105 ku. Through the results of Western blotting, ELISA and blocking ELISA, it had been proved that this recombinant protein could combine with BTV-1 specific antibody and this combination could be blocked by BTV-1 virus. The study showed that the recombinant BTV-1 VP2 protein, expressed through the prokaryotic expression vector pEASY-Blunt E1, possessed good immunoreactivity and this study had established foundation for locating the serotypic epitopes of the BTV-1 VP2 protein.
