Project description:An indirect porcine epidemic diarrhea virus (PEDV) anti-immunoglobulin (Ig) G ELISA based on the S1 portion of the spike protein was validated and compared with an indirect immunofluorescence assay. In serum samples from experimentally infected pigs (n?=?35), anti-IgG PEDV antibodies were detected as early as 7 days post-infection. In field serum samples (n?=?239), the diagnostic sensitivity of the S1 ELISA was 100% and the diagnostic specificity was 94%. The S1 ELISA showed no cross-reactivity with antibodies against other porcine coronaviruses. Colostrum samples (n?=?133) were also tested for anti-PEDV IgG and IgA. The diagnostic sensitivity was 92% for IgG and 100% for IgA, and the diagnostic specificity was 90% for IgG and 99.4% for IgA. These data suggest that the S1 ELISA is a sensitive and specific test that could also be used to evaluate PEDV colostral immunity.

Project description:Encephalomyocarditis virus (EMCV) can cause acute myocarditis in young pigs or reproductive failure in sows. It has been recognized worldwide as a pathogen infecting many species and causes substantial economic losses. In the present study, an indirect ELISA was developed for the detection of antibodies to EMCV. The VP1 gene of EMCV was amplified by reverse transcription-quantitative polymerase chain reaction and expressed in Escherichia coli with 49.3 kDa under the condition of isopropyl-β-d-thiogalactoside. Following this, the authors obtained the recombinant protein VP1 as a coating antigen. The antigen concentration and serum dilution were optimized using a checkerboard titration. Compared with viral neutralization tests, the sensitivity and specificity of the indirect ELISA was 95.7% and 92.9%, respectively. A total of 265 clinical swine serum samples from different pig farms in China were used to a serological survey. The seropositive rate of the serum samples was 81.9%. In conclusion, the developed indirect ELISA assay is sensitive and specific, which will be useful for large-scale serological survey in EMCV infection and monitoring antibodies titers against EMCV.

Project description:Atypical porcine pestivirus (APPV) had been detected in many countries. However, to date, a commercial detection kit is not available because of a lack of specific monoclonal antibodies (mAbs) to APPV. We generated 7 mAbs targeting the NS3 protein of APPV. Isotyping results indicated that all of these mAbs are IgG1 with a kappa light chain. We analyzed the epitopes recognized by mAbs 2B6, 6G11, 8D1, 8D3, and 8F12, which recognized the same linear epitope (GRIKSAYSDE); the 6H3 and 7E10 mAbs recognized 2 different conformational epitopes. Applications of these antibodies were verified by ELISA, western blot, indirect immunofluorescence assay, and flow cytometry. The antibodies were functionally workable for these immunoassays except for 8F12, which could not be used in flow cytometry.

Project description:Senecavirus A (SVA) is an emerging pathogen that negatively affects the pig industry in China. Affected animals present vesicular lesions which are indistinguishable from other vesicular diseases. To date, there is no commercial vaccine that can be used to control SVA infection in China. In this study, recombinant SVA 3AB, 2C, 3C, 3D, L and VP1 proteins are expressed by using a prokaryotic expression system. The kinetics of the presence and levels of SVA antibodies with SVA-inoculated pig serum show that 3AB has the best antigenicity. An indirect enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) is developed with the 3AB protein, exhibiting a sensitivity of 91.3% and no cross-reaction with serum antibodies against PRRSV, CSFV, PRV, PCV2 or O-type FMDV. Given the high sensitivity and specificity of this approach, a nine-year (2014-2022) retrospective and prospective serological study is conducted to determine the epidemiological profile and dynamics of SVA in East China. Although SVA seropositivity declined markedly from 2016 (98.85%) to 2022 (62.40%), SVA transmission continues in China. Consequently, the SVA 3AB-based indirect ELISA has good sensitivity and specificity and is suitable for viral detection, field surveillance and epidemiological studies.

Project description:Porcine deltacoronavirus (PDCoV) is a recently identified coronavirus in the genus Deltacoronavirus that can cause enteric disease including diarrhea, vomiting, dehydration and mortality in neonatal piglets. Serological assays to detect anti-PDCoV antibodies are presently limited to certain laboratories and geographic regions. In this study, a recombinant M protein-based indirect enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (PDCoV-rM ELISA) was developed and utilized to determine the prevalence of anti-PDCoV IgG in Hebei province. The PDCoV-rM ELISA showed no cross-reaction with antisera against transmissible gastroenteritis virus (TGEV), porcine epidemic diarrhea virus (PEDV), porcine rotavirus (PRV), porcine circovirus 2 (PCV2), classical swine fever virus (CSFV) or porcine reproductive and respiratory syndrome virus (PRRSV). The diagnostic sensitivity was 90.6% and the diagnostic specificity was 93.3%. A total of 871 serum samples collected in Hebei from January 2015 to October 2016 were checked for presence of antibodies against PDCoV using the novel PDCoV-rM ELISA. Anti-PDCoV IgG antibodies were detected in 11% (96/871) of the samples and in 25% (10/40) of the investigated farms. The data suggest that PDCoV has a low seroprevalence in pig population in Hebei province, China.

Project description:Atypical porcine pestivirus (APPV), an RNA virus member of the Flaviviridae family, has been associated with congenital tremor in newborn piglets. Previously reported quantitative polymerase chain reaction (qPCR)-based assays were unable to detect APPV in novel cases of congenital tremor originated from multiple farms from U.S. Midwest (MW). These assays targeted the viral polyprotein coding genes, which were shown to display substantial variation, with sequence identity ranging from 58.2% to 70.7% among 15 global APPV strains. In contrast, the 5'-untranslated region (5' UTR) was found to have a much higher degree of sequence conservation. In order to obtain the complete 5' UTR of the APPV strains originated from MW, the 5' end of the viral cDNA was obtained by using template switching approach followed by amplification and dideoxy sequencing. Eighty one percent of the 5' UTR was identical across 14 global and 5 MW strains with complete or relatively complete 5' UTR. Notably, some of the most highly conserved 5' UTR segments overlapped with potentially important regions of an internal ribosome entry site (IRES), suggesting their functional role in viral protein translation. A newly designed single qPCR assay, targeting 100% conserved 5' UTR regions across 19 strains, was able to detect APPV in samples of well documented cases of congenital tremor which originated from five MW farm sites (1-18 samples/site). As these fully conserved 5' UTR sequences may have functional importance, we expect that assays targeting this region would broadly detect APPV strains that are diverse in space and time.

Project description:Atypical porcine pestivirus (APPV) is a recently discovered and very divergent species of the genus Pestivirus within the family Flaviviridae, which causes congenital tremor (CT) in newborn piglets. In this study, an APPV epidemiological investigation was conducted by studying 975 swine samples (562 tissue and 413 serum samples) collected from different parts of China from 2017 to 2021. The results revealed that the overall positive rate of the APPV genome was 7.08% (69/975), among which 50.7% (35/69) of the samples tested positive for one or more other common swine viruses, especially porcine circovirus type 2 (PCV2) with a coinfection rate of 36.2% (25/69). Subsequently, a novel APPV strain, named China/HLJ491/2017, was isolated in porcine kidney (PK)-15 cells for the first time from a weaned piglet that was infected with both APPV and PCV2. The new APPV isolate was confirmed by RT-PCR, sequencing, immunofluorescence assay, and transmission electron microscopy. After clearing PCV2, a pure APPV strain was obtained and further stably propagated in PK-15 cells for more than 30 passages. Full genome sequencing and phylogenetic analysis showed that the China/HLJ491/2017 strain was classified as genotype 2, sharing 80.8 to 97.6% of its nucleotide identity with previously published APPV strains. In conclusion, this study enhanced our knowledge of this new pestivirus and the successful isolation of the APPV strain provides critical material for the investigation of the biological and pathogenic properties of this emerging virus, as well as the development of vaccines and diagnostic reagents.
