The infectivity, pathogenicity and immunogenicity of 5 human, 6 calf, 2 pig and 2 foal rotavirus isolates were studied in gnotobiotic calves, piglets and lambs. Three of the human isolated produced subclinical infection in newborn gnotobiotic piglets and the piglets developed neutralising antirotavirus antibody. When challenged with pig rotavirus 2 weeks later, the piglets did not develop diarrhoea, but rotavirus was detected in the faeces. In contrast, piglets inoculated with the other 2 human isolates failed to show evidence of infection and there was no specific antibody detected. These piglets developed diarrhoea when challenged 2 weeks later with pig rotavirus. The 4 human isolated failed to infect gnotobiotic calves an lambs. 相似文献

A rotavirus, morphologically similar to other known rotaviruses, was demonstrated in the faeces of 5 foals with diarrhoea on two properties. Four of these 5 samples produced specific intracytoplasmic fluorescence in cell culture when reacted with calf rotavirus antiserum conjugate. Sixteen affected foals from both properties were depressed, did not suckle and became recumbent. Most had a watery diarrhoea which lasted for 3 days and resulted in some dehydration and loss of body condition. Sick foals were separated from their mothers following the onset of diarrhoea and given fluid therapy and antibiotics, but despite these measures 4 of 12 affected foals on one property died. Acute and convalescent sera were collected from 6 foals, and in each case a rise in the titres of complement fixing and neutralising antibodies was demonstrated. Faecal filtrates containing foal rotaviruses were fed to gnotobiotic piglets and the effects compared with those of other rotaviruses. Viral isolates from both properties produced an asymptomatic infection in piglets. This contrasts with the other rotaviruses isolated in Australia that have been shown to cause diarrhoea in gnotobiotic piglets. 相似文献

The isochore organization of the mammalian genome comprises a general pattern and some special patterns, the former being characterized by a wider compositional distribution of the DNA fragments. The large majority of the mammalian genomes belong to the former, and only some groups, such as the Myomorpha sub-order of Rodentia, belong to the latter. Here we describe the compositional organization of the pig (Sus scrofa) genome that belongs to the general mammalian pattern. We investigated (i) the compositional distribution of the genes by analysis of their GC3 levels (the GC levels at the third codon positions), and (ii) the correlation between the GC3 value of orthologous genes from pig and other vertebrates (human, calf, mouse, chicken, and Xenopus). As expected, the highest gene concentration corresponded to the H3 isochore family, and the highest GC3 correlations were observed in the pig/human and pig/calf comparisons. Then we identified, by in situ hybridization of the GC-richest H3 isochores, the pig chromosomal regions endowed by the highest gene-density that largely corresponded to the telomeric chromosomal bands. Moreover, we observed that these gene-rich bands are syntenic with the previously identified GC-richest/gene richest H3+ bands of the human chromosomes. At the cell nucleus level, we observed that the gene-dense region corresponded to the more internal compartment, as previously found in human and avian cell nuclei. 相似文献

Comparison of rotavirus strains by hemagglutination inhibition. 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2
Rotaviruses have been shown to be of importance as aetiologic agents of gastroenteritis in infants and in domestic animals of several species. Hemagglutinins were prepared from two Canadian isolates of bovine rotavirus and from one isolate of a simian rotavirus. A United Kingdon isolate of bovine rotavirus was shown not to possess hemagglutinating activity, indicating a strain difference between a Canadian and United Kingdom bovine rotavirus. In hemagglutination-inhibition (HAI) tests a rabbit hyperimmune (two injections) serum, prepared to one of the bovine rotaviruses, was not helpful in distinguishing the two bovine viruses because of cross-reactions between the viruses. However, it was possible to distinguish the bovine viruses from the simian virus with this serum. When guinea pig immune sera were prepared to the four rotavirus strains and tested with the three hemagglutinins in the HAI test, antigenic differences between the four strains of rotavirus were demonstrated. Hyperimmune guinea pig serum prepared to a strain of human rotavirus did not inhibit any of three hemagglutinins indicating that the human strain is different from the three rotavirus strains which gave hemagglutinins. 相似文献

Single-stranded RNA (ssRNA) was transcribed in vitro from inner-shell particles of human rotavirus strain Wa (HRV-Wa) and a bovine rotavirus (neonatal calf diarrhea virus [NCDV]) by virion-associated RNA polymerase activity. The ssRNA product consisted of 11 RNA segments which were separated by polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis. In vitro-transcribed 32P-labeled ssRNA was used to study the genetic relatedness between rotaviruses by annealing with genomic double-stranded RNA (dsRNA) of homologous or heterologous rotavirus. All segments of HRV-Wa ssRNA were hybridized with dsRNA of HRV TK80, collected from the feces of a gastroenteritis patient, at the level of 88 to 100% of the homologous reaction. On the other hand, no segments of ssRNA from HRV-Wa hybridized with dsRNA of NCDV or simian rotavirus (simian agent 11). Similarly, ssRNA from NCDV did not hybridize with dsRNA of HRV-Wa, but hybridized with dsRNA of simian agent 11 at the level of 30% of the homologous value. 相似文献

Rotavirus genomic RNAs, derived from a series of human isolates that exhibit variability in the pattern of migration of the double-stranded RNA on polyacrylamide gels, were transferred to diazobenzyloxymethyl paper, and their sequence diversity was investigated. Hybridization of cDNA probes prepared from the 11 segments of rotavirus RNA indicated that considerable sequence diversity exists among these viruses. Under conditions of both low and high stringency, hybridization analysis of virus collected between 1975 and 1980 suggested that the variation among rotavirus strains may have occurred by a process involving both "drift" and "shift" in the sequence of the rotavirus genomic segments. 相似文献

During the present study, group A human rotaviruses were detected among diarrheic children using polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis
(PAGE) technique, with a typical RNA migration pattern of 4:2:3:2, suggestive of group A rotavirus. During the study, a total
of 46 fecal samples collected from hospitalized children with acute diarrhea as well as children inhabiting nearby animal
farms with history of presence of animal rotaviruses on the farms were processed for detection of human rotavirus. Out of
33 diarrheic children, 12 showed presence of rotavirus infection (36.36%), however, none of the children from animal farm
areas showed presence of rotavirus. Female children were more susceptible to rotavirus infection (46.15%) than males (30%).
Majority of the cases of rotavirus gastroenteritis belonged up to one year of the age, with an incidence of 40.91%. RNA profile
of rotaviruses suggested circulation of 5 different electropherotypes in this geographical locale of the country, indicating
existence of genomic diversity among human rotaviruses. Majority of the isolates were of long pattern (66.67%), whereas short
pattern was detected only in one third of the viruses. This preliminary study emphasizes for further detailed studies on the
molecular characterization of rotaviruses circulating in this part of country and their relationship with other human rotavirus
strains and animal strains in the country. 相似文献

Galactoside-inhibitable lectins have been isolated from rabbit, rat, mouse, pig, lamb, calf, and human spleens. Native molecular mass, subunit structure, pI, and hemagglutinating activity have been compared for these lectins. The yields of lectin varied from 1.8 mg/kg for rabbit spleen to 79 mg/kg for lamb spleen. Pig, lamb, calf, and human spleen lectins yielded single protein peaks when subjected to Superose 12 fast-protein liquid chromatography. The apparent molecular mass for these lectins was 33-34 kDa. In contrast, rat and mouse spleen lectin preparations were separated into three components ranging from 8.4 to 34 kDa. Superose 12 chromatography of rabbit spleen lectin revealed the presence of at least six components. Gradient slab gel sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis showed the presence of single polypeptides for pig, calf, lamb, and human lectins corresponding to a molecular mass of 14-14.5 kDa. Multiple polypeptides were detected for the mouse, rat, and rabbit lectins. The molecular mass of the major polypeptides were 15, 15, and 17 kDa for rat, mouse, and rabbit, respectively. The presence of isolectins in all preparations was shown by isoelectric focusing. The major isolectins were acidic proteins with pI 4.38-4.80. Hemagglutination and hemagglutination inhibition assays demonstrated similarities as well as differences among the lectin preparations. Hemagglutinating activity could not be demonstrated in rabbit spleen extracts nor for isolated putative lectin. Human buffy coat cells were reversibly agglutinated by calf and human spleen lectins, demonstrating the presence of leucocyte cell surface lectin receptors. 相似文献

The simian rotavirus SA11 was used to develop a simple, reliable, and efficient method to concentrate rotavirus from tap water, treated sewage, and raw sewage by absorption to and elution from Filterite fiberglass-epoxy filters. SA11 adsorbed optimally to Filterite filters from water containing 0.5 mM AlCl3 at pH 3.5. Filter-bound virus was eluted with 0.05 M glycine-NaOH supplemented with 10% tryptose phosphate broth at pH 10. SA11 was quantitated by plaque assay, whereas human rotavirus was detected by immunofluorescence. The method was applied to detect rotavirus in raw and treated sewage at two Houston, Tex., sewage treatment plants. The sewage isolates were identified as rotavirus, probably a human strain, based on several criteria. The sewage isolates were detectable by an immunofluorescence test, using anti-SA11 serum which would detect the simian, human bovine, and porcine rotaviruses. No reaction was noted by immunofluorescence with the reoviruses or several common enteroviruses. The sewage isolates were neutralized by convalescent sera from a human adult and infant who had been infected by rotavirus as well as by a hyperimmune serum prepared in guinea pigs against purified human rotavirus. Preimmune or preillness sera did not react with the isolates by neutralization or immunofluorescence. The natural isolates were sensitive to pH 11 and other inactivating agents, similar to SA11. The buoyant density of the sewage isolates in CsCl gradients was 1.36 g/cm3, which is the value usually reported for complete, infectious rotavirus particles. The double-shelled particle diameter was 67.1 +/- 2.4 nm. Finally, electron micrographs of cell lysates inoculated with the sewage isolate showed particles displaying characteristic rotavirus morphology. 相似文献

The diagnostic potential of cloned cDNA copies of human rotavirus (strain WA) genome segments for the detection of rotavirus in clinical specimens has been determined. A hybridization assay in which a mixture of 32P-labeled cDNAs representing the 11 rotavirus segments was used as a probe compared favorably with three frequently used diagnostic tests for rotavirus in terms of both specificity and sensitivity. Significantly, clinical isolates could be readily distinguished when cloned cDNA copies of individual genome segments were used independently as a probe. In assays in which genome RNA from rotaviruses of known subgroups and serotypes were tested, cloned probes that encode nonstructural viral proteins hybridized efficiently to genome RNAs of all strains, whereas cloned probes corresponding to genome segments 6 and 9 exhibited the potential for differentiating strains of different subgroups and serotypes. Cloned cDNA copies of rotavirus genome segments therefore offer considerable potential for improved general diagnosis of rotavirus in clinical specimens, as well as for epidemiological studies in which virus isolates can be distinguished on the basis of nucleotide sequence homology of individual genome segments. 相似文献

Cloned DNA copies of double-stranded RNA segments 7, 8, and 9 of UK bovine rotavirus were nick-translated with [alpha-(32)P]ATP and hybridized to double-stranded RNA of various rotavirus strains which had been separated on long polyacrylamide gels and then transferred to o-aminophenylthioether paper. Specific hybridization of the UK calf clones to the separated RNA segments allowed the corresponding genes of four different rotaviruses to be rapidly determined. 相似文献

The genomic RNA patterns of six different bovine rotavirus isolates were analyzed on high-percentage polyacrylamide gels (12.5, 13.6, and 17.5%). In contrast to the RNA patterns exhibited by conventional gel systems, those on the high-percentage gels showed an improvement in segment resolution which consequently aided in the detection of extensive band splitting in these patterns. The ability to clone out various electrophoretically distinct virus subpopulations from each of the six isolates provided an explanation for the band splitting detected by the high-resolution gels. The significance of the coexistence of genetically distinct rotavirus populations within a single host is discussed. 相似文献

The ovine NRAMP1 and cervine NRAMP1 cDNAs were cloned by RT PCR of RNA derived from macrophage enriched leukocyte preparations. The complete coding and 3' regions were sequenced. Both sheep and deer NRAMP1 proteins are 548 amino acids long. There are 77 and 73 amino acid differences, respectively, compared to the mouse Nramp1 sequence. Dinucleotide repeats were found in both the ovine and cervine 3' non-coding sequence. Amplification of these regions in individual sheep and deer showed them to be polymorphic micro-satellites. They have polymorphism information content values of 0·76 and 0·84 in sheep and deer, respectively. Using these microsatellites, the ovine NRAMP1 gene was mapped in a linkage group on ovine chromosome 2q and cervine NRAMP1 was mapped in a linkage group syntenic with human chromosome 2, mouse chromosome 1 and sheep chromosome 2. 相似文献
