嵌合猪圆环病毒PCV1-2的构建及其感染性初步鉴定

猪Ⅱ型圆环病毒(PCV2)是当前严重危害养猪业的重要病原之一。目前,世界上还没有有效疫苗用于该病毒的免疫预防。该研究利用PCR方法,将PCV2的ORF2基因替换猪Ⅰ型圆环病毒(PCV1)的ORF2基因,构建了以PCV1基因组为骨架的嵌合病毒(PCV1-2)分子克隆(pSK2PCV1-2)。将该分子克隆转染PK-15细胞并连续盲传5代,用RT-PCR方法可以在转染后盲传的细胞中检测到PCV1的ORF1 mRNA和PCV2的ORF2 mRNA,但检测不到PCV1的ORF2 mRNA和PCV2的ORF1 mRNA。间接免疫荧光检测显示在盲传第5代的细胞中有PCV2 ORF2蛋白的表达,表达蛋白主要分布于细胞核。该研究初步证实构建的PCV1-2分子克隆转染细胞后可以形成具有感染性的嵌合病毒,从而为更深入研究嵌合病毒生物学特性奠定了基础。

An experimental live chimeric porcine circovirus 1-2a vaccine decreases porcine circovirus 2b viremia when administered intramuscularly or orally in a porcine circovirus 2b and porcine reproductive and respiratory syndrome virus dual-challenge model

Commercially available inactivated vaccines against porcine circovirus type 2 (PCV2) have been shown to be effective in reducing PCV2 viremia. Live-attenuated, orally administered vaccines are widely used in the swine industry for several pathogens because of their ease of use yet they are not currently available for PCV2 and efficacy. The aims of this study were to determine the efficacy of a live-attenuated chimeric PCV2 vaccine in a dual-challenge model using PCV2b and porcine reproductive and respiratory syndrome virus (PRRSV) and to compare intramuscular (IM) and oral (PO) routes of vaccination. Eighty-three 2-week-old pigs were randomized into 12 treatment groups: four vaccinated IM, four vaccinated PO and four non-vaccinated (control) groups. Vaccination was performed at 3 weeks of age using a PCV1-2a live-attenuated vaccine followed by no challenge, or challenge with PCV2b, PRRSV or a combination of PCV2b and PRRSV at 7 weeks of age. IM administration of the vaccine elicited an anti-PCV2 antibody response between 14 and 28 days post vaccination, 21/28 of the pigs being seropositive prior to challenge. In contrast, the anti-PCV2 antibody response in PO vaccinated pigs was delayed, only 1/27 of the pigs being seropositive at challenge. At 21 days post challenge, PCV2 DNA loads were reduced by 80.4% in the IM vaccinated groups and by 29.6% in the PO vaccinated groups. PCV1-2a (vaccine) viremia was not identified in any of the pigs. Under the conditions of this study, the live attenuated PCV1-2a vaccine was safe and provided immune protection resulting in reduction of viremia. The IM route provided the most effective protection.

【目的】猪圆环病毒2型(PCV2)是严重危害世界养猪业的重要传染病,即猪圆环病毒相关疾病(PCVAD)的重要病原,其致病机制及流行规律尚未阐明。本研究对2010–2015年间采集自中国华东地区的病料进行PCV2检测,以探讨中国华东地区PCV2的分子流行病学特征,分析PCV2的遗传演化规律。【方法】本研究利用PCR方法对384份断奶仔猪多系统衰竭综合征疑似发病猪样本进行检测,并对随机选取的42份阳性样品进行PCV2全基因组的测定和分析。【结果】华东地区普遍存在PCV2的感染,阳性率为41.15%。序列扩增获得42株PCV2全长基因组,同源性和系统进化树分析表明,基于PCV2 ORF2和全长核苷酸序列构建的系统进化树结构是基本一致的。从病料中测得的42株PCV2与11株参考毒株序列的ORF2基因的核苷酸和氨基酸序列同源性分别为87.0%–100.0%和82.5%–100.0%。遗传进化分析显示,53株PCV2毒株可分为4个基因型,即PCV2a、PCV2b、PCV2c和PCV2d。本文获得的42株序列ORF2基因的核苷酸和氨基酸序列同源性分别为89.6%–100.0%和86.8%–100%,...     

表达猪圆环病毒2型Cap蛋白的重组猪瘟兔化弱毒疫苗株的构建与鉴定

猪瘟(CSF)是由猪瘟病毒(CSFV)引起的一种毁灭性传染病,给养猪业造成重大经济损失。猪瘟兔化弱毒疫苗(C株)是一株非常安全、有效的优秀弱毒疫苗,对各年龄和品种的猪都极其安全,同时对不同基因亚型的CSFV均能提供有效的免疫保护。在现地,CSFV和猪圆环病毒2型(PCV2)混合感染的现象时常发生,有必要研制针对这两种病毒混合感染的二价疫苗。本研究首次构建了表达PCV2 Cap蛋白的重组C株,并评价了其在体内外的特性。结果表明,该重组病毒与C株具有相近的体外增殖特征,能够稳定表达Cap蛋白,在家兔体内具有与C株相似的生物学表型,在免疫家兔后10 d,抗CSFV E2抗体全部转阳,然而抗Cap抗体未能转阳。本研究为进一步优化表达PCV2Cap蛋白的重组C株奠定了基础。     

Enhancement of the immunogenicity of a porcine circovirus type 2 DNA vaccine by a recombinant plasmid coexpressing capsid protein and porcine interleukin‐6 in mice

The development of effective vaccines against porcine circovirus type 2 (PCV2) has been accepted as an important strategy in the prophylaxis of post‐weaning multisystemic wasting syndrome; a DNA vaccine expressing the major immunogenic capsid (Cap) protein of PCV2 is considered to be a promising candidate. However, DNA vaccines usually induce weak immune responses. In this study, it was found that the efficacy of a DNA vaccine expressing Cap protein was improved by simultaneous expression of porcine IL‐6. A plasmid (pIRES‐ORF2/IL6) separately expressing both Cap protein and porcine IL‐6 was constructed and compared with another plasmid (pIRES‐ORF2) expressing Cap protein for its potential to induce PCV2‐specific immune responses. Mice were vaccinated i.m. twice at 3 week intervals and the induced humoral and cellular responses evaluated. All animals vaccinated with pIRES‐ORF2/IL6 and pIRES‐ORF2 developed specific anti‐PCV2 antibodies (according to enzyme‐linked immunosorbent assay) and a T lymphocyte proliferation response. The percentages of CD3⁺, CD3⁺CD8⁺, and CD3⁺CD4⁺ subgroups of peripheral blood T‐lymphocytes were significantly higher in mice immunized with pIRES‐ORF2/IL6 than in those that had received pIRES‐ORF2. After challenge with the virulent PCV2 Wuzhi isolate, mice vaccinated with pIRES‐ORF2/IL6 had significantly less viral replication than those vaccinated with pIRES‐ORF2, suggesting that the protective immunity induced by pIRES‐ORF2/IL6 is superior to that induced by pIRES‐ORF2.     

MicroRNA-98促进猪圆环病毒2型在3D4/21细胞中的复制

【目的】通过高通量测序的方法获得PCV2感染3D4/21细胞的miRNAs表达谱,并探讨miRNA-98在PCV2复制中的作用。【方法】本研究以猪肺泡巨噬细胞系3D4/21细胞为细胞模型,对PCV2感染过程中的3D4/21细胞进行miRNAs差异表达分析,筛选与病毒复制相关的特异性miRNAs,并探讨其在PCV2复制中的作用。【结果】经高通量测序,获得PCV2感染3D4/21细胞的miRNAs表达谱,结合实验室前期研究筛选获得miRNA-98。实验表明,miRNA-98的表达量随PCV2感染时间的延长而持续升高,其变化趋势与Cap蛋白表达变化基本一致,由此推测miRNA-98与PCV2复制正相关。过表达miRNA-98可显著上调Cap蛋白的表达量和PCV2的复制。进一步的研究表明,miRNA-98参与调节宿主免疫相关细胞因子的表达和PCV2的复制。【结论】miRNA-98可通过调节免疫相关细胞因子的表达调控宿主免疫功能,帮助PCV2逃逸宿主免疫,促进PCV2在3D4/21细胞中的复制。这些发现不仅为深入了解PCV2与宿主之间的关系提供了新视角,还有望为猪圆环病毒相关疾病的防控提供新的抗病毒策略。     

Protective efficacy of a DNA vaccine encoding capsid protein of porcine circovirus‐like virus P1 against porcine circovirus 2 in mice

The capsid protein is the major immunogenic protein of porcine circovirus 2 (PCV2). The nucleotide sequence of porcine circovirus‐like virus P1 shares high homology with open reading frame (ORF) 2 of PCV2, and ORF1 of P1 encodes its structural protein. Mice were vaccinated twice intramuscularly with a plasmid expressing the P1 ORF1 protein (pcDNA3.1(+)‐ORF1) at 2‐week intervals. All animals vaccinated with pcDNA3.1(+)‐ORF1 developed higher specific anti‐P1 antibody levels, and had less PCV2 viremia and milder histopathological changes than PCV2‐challenged mice in the control group. Our results show that the P1 DNA vaccine elicited immune responses against PCV2 infection in a mouse model.

     

Protective immunity conferred by porcine circovirus 2 ORF2‐based DNA vaccine in mice

Post‐weaning multisystemic wasting syndrome (PMWS) associated with porcine circovirus type 2 (PCV2) has caused the swine industry significant health challenges and economic damage. Although inactivated and subunit vaccines against PMWS have been used widely, so far no DNA vaccine is available. In this study, with the aim of exploring a new route for developing a vaccine against PCV2, the immunogenicity of a DNA vaccine was evaluated in mice. The pEGFP‐N1 vector was used to construct a PCV2 Cap gene recombinant vaccine. To assess the immunogenicity of pEGFP‐Cap, 80 BALB/c mice were immunized three times at 2 weekly intervals with pEGFP‐Cap, LG‐strain vaccine, pEGFP‐N1 vector or PBS and then challenged with PCV2. IgG and cytokines were assessed by indirect ELISA and ELISA, respectively. Specimens stained with hematoxylin and eosin (HE) and immunohistochemistry (IHC) techniques were examined histopathologically. It was found that vaccination of the mice with the pEGFP‐Cap induced solid protection against PCV2 infection through induction of highly specific serum IgG antibodies and cytokines (IFN‐γ and IL‐10), and a small PCV2 viral load. The mice treated with the pEGFP‐Cap and LG‐strain developed no histopathologically detectable lesions (HE stain) and IHC techniques revealed only a few positive cells. Thus, this study demonstrated that recombinant pEGFP‐Cap substantially alleviates PCV2 infection in mice and provides evidence that a DNA vaccine could be an alternative to PCV2 vaccines against PMWS.

Mapping of the nuclear localization signals in open reading frame 2 protein from porcine circovirus type 1

Porcine circovirus type 1 （PCV1） contains two major open reading frames encoding the replication-associated proteins and the major structural capsid （Cap） protein. PCV1 Cap has an N-terminus carrying several potential monopartite or bipartite nuclear localization signals （NLS）. The contribution of these partially overlapping motifs to nuclear importing was identified by expression of mutated PCVI Cap versions fused to enhanced green fluorescent protein （EGFP）. The Cterminus truncated PCV1 Cap-EGFP was localized in nuclei of PK-15 cells similar to the wild-type PCV1 Cap-EGFP, whereas truncation of the N-terminus rendered the fusion protein distributed into cytoplasm, indicating that the nuclear import of PCV1 Cap was efficiently mediated by its N-terminal region. Substitutions of basic residues in stretches 9RR- RR12 or the right part of 25RRPYLAHPAFRNRYRWRRK43 resulted in a diffused distribution of the fusion protein in both nuclei and cytoplasm, indicating that the two NLSs were responsible for restricted nuclear targeting of PCV1 Cap.
