Abstract
Porcine parvovirus type 1 (PPV1) can lead to reproductive disorders in pregnant sows, including stillbirth, mummification, embryonic death, and infertility (SMEDI syndrome). In this study, we isolated and identified 10 PPV1 strains in northern China, with genomes around 5 kb long and minor deletions in the 127-nt repeat region. The sequence analysis results showed that compared with strain NADL-2 (Reference strain), eight amino acid substitutions on the NS1 protein and fourteen amino acid substitutions on the VP2 protein were found in the ten isolates. Because the JX strain exhibited reduced neutralizing activity induced by commercially available vaccines in vitro, it was selected for challenge experiments in sows at 35 days of gestation. Mutant strain JX not only caused viremia, but also mild edema and mild inflammation in the trachea, lungs, lymph nodes, reproductive organs, and some intestines of the pregnant sows. Strain JX also caused fetal congestion and organ infection after penetrating the placental barrier. In conclusion, this study focused on the variation and evolution of PPV1 in northern China, screened a strain with reduced neutralizing activity, and determined that it has a certain degree of pathogenicity.
期刊介绍:
Veterinary Microbiology is concerned with microbial (bacterial, fungal, viral) diseases of domesticated vertebrate animals (livestock, companion animals, fur-bearing animals, game, poultry, fish) that supply food, other useful products or companionship. In addition, Microbial diseases of wild animals living in captivity, or as members of the feral fauna will also be considered if the infections are of interest because of their interrelation with humans (zoonoses) and/or domestic animals. Studies of antimicrobial resistance are also included, provided that the results represent a substantial advance in knowledge. Authors are strongly encouraged to read - prior to submission - the Editorials (''Scope or cope'' and ''Scope or cope II'') published previously in the journal. The Editors reserve the right to suggest submission to another journal for those papers which they feel would be more appropriate for consideration by that journal.
Original research papers of high quality and novelty on aspects of control, host response, molecular biology, pathogenesis, prevention, and treatment of microbial diseases of animals are published. Papers dealing primarily with immunology, epidemiology, molecular biology and antiviral or microbial agents will only be considered if they demonstrate a clear impact on a disease. Papers focusing solely on diagnostic techniques (such as another PCR protocol or ELISA) will not be published - focus should be on a microorganism and not on a particular technique. Papers only reporting microbial sequences, transcriptomics data, or proteomics data will not be considered unless the results represent a substantial advance in knowledge.
Drug trial papers will be considered if they have general application or significance. Papers on the identification of microorganisms will also be considered, but detailed taxonomic studies do not fall within the scope of the journal. Case reports will not be published, unless they have general application or contain novel aspects. Papers of geographically limited interest, which repeat what had been established elsewhere will not be considered. The readership of the journal is global.
