We performed a comprehensive analysis of innate and adaptive immune responses in dual-virus infected pigs to understand whether a pre-existing immunomodulatory respiratory viral infection affects the overall immunity to a subsequent porcine respiratory coronavirus (PRCV) infection in pigs. Pigs were either mock-infected or infected with porcine reproductive and respiratory syndrome virus (PRRSV), a virus known to cause immunosuppressive respiratory disease, and then pigs were co-infected with PRCV, which normally causes subclinical respiratory infection. We collected samples for six independent experiments from 178 pigs that were also used for pathological studies. We detected a significant reduction in innate NK-cell-mediated cytotoxic function in PRRSV-infected pigs, which was synergistically further decreased in pigs co-infected with PRCV. Subsequently, in association with clinical signs we observed elevated levels of proinflammatory (IL-6), Th-1 (IL-12), and regulatory (IL-10 and TGF-β) cytokines. Increased frequencies of CD4CD8 double-positive T lymphocytes and myeloid cells, in addition to the elevated Th-1 and proinflammatory cytokines in dual-infected pigs, contributed to the severity of lung disease in pigs. The results of our study clarify how each virus modulates the host innate and adaptive immune responses, leading to inflammatory reactions and lung pathology. Thus measurements of cytokines and frequencies of immune cells may serve as indicators of the progression of respiratory viral co-infections, and provide more definitive approaches for treatment. 相似文献

Four pigs were inoculated with an aerosol containing porcine reproductive and respiratory syndrome virus (PRRSV) followed 14 days later by inoculation with pseudorabies virus (PRV). The four dually infected pigs showed severe clinical signs, and one died on day 6 after infection with PRV. As demonstrated previously, the clinical disease was much more severe than that produced by either virus alone. All four dually infected pigs developed severe non-suppurative encephalitis, two had tonsillitis, two had necrotizing bronchiolitis, and one had lymphadenitis. The distribution of lesions corresponded closely with the detection of intranuclear inclusion bodies and PRV antigen. High numbers of TUNEL-positive cells detected in the thymus were associated with thymic atrophy. 相似文献

Four pigs (group 1) were infected with an aerosol containing porcine reproductive and respiratory syndrome virus (PRRSV) followed 7 days later by pseudorabies virus (PRV). Three further pigs (group 2) received PRRSV alone, two (group 3) received PRV alone, and two (group 4) remained as uninfected controls. Despite the admittedly small numbers of animals, the experiment appeared to throw light on aspects of synergy. Thus, the group 1 pigs showed severe neurological signs characterized by ataxia and muscular tremors. Total cell numbers in the bronchoalveolar lavage fluid were increased in all PRRSV-infected pigs, and PRRSV antigen was detected in the alveolar macrophages. Total cell numbers in the cerebrospinal fluid of group 1 pigs were considerably greater than those demonstrated in group 3, but no PRV antigen was found. Pigs of groups 1 and 2 showed pulmonary lesions, characterized by interstitial pneumonia and PRRSV antigen immunolabelling. Non-suppurative encephalitis was found in five of the six pigs of groups 1 and 3. In particular, one group 1 animal had severe necrotizing encephalitis with intranuclear inclusion bodies and associated immunolabelling of PRV antigen. The other three group 1 pigs had prominent malacic lesions, with macrophages. These neuropathological findings strongly suggested that PRRSV infection in pigs enhances the severity of brain lesions caused PRV. 相似文献

Adjuvant danger signals increase the immune response to porcine reproductive and respiratory syndrome virus 总被引:4,自引:0,他引:4
The immune response of swine to vaccination with a live, attenuated PRRSV was assessed in the presence and absence of cytokine adjuvants or cholera toxin (CT) to address the hypothesis that adjuvant danger signals, that is, inflammatory cytokines and bacterial extoxin, stimulate a more robust immune response. Animals received four injections of recombinant porcine IL-1 and IL-6, IL-12 alone, or CT alone within 1 week of intramuscular administration of a vaccine strain of PRRSV, Ingelvac MLV. Serological and cell-mediated responses were monitored for 42 days after vaccination and for a further 10 days after challenge with the virulent VR2332 strain of PRRSV. First, the principal observation was an enhancing effect of IL-12 on the interferon gamma response to PRRSV, with a more rapid and heightened PRRSV-specific interferon gamma ELISPOT response in peripheral blood mononuclear cells. The more rapid and robust development of a cell-mediated immune response, as determined by this assay, suggests that IL-12 may influence the induction of antigen-specific T cell responses. Second, animals that received CT adjuvant displayed a more robust antibody response to GP5, the major envelope glycoprotein. Anti-GP5 titers peaked at 21 days after vaccination at more than twice the level of any other treatment, for which the peak response was at 28 days. Third, there was no evidence of PRRSV immunosuppression of immunity to unrelated antigens, including circovirus. CT is a potent mucosal adjuvant, particularly for antibody responses. It acts in part through the production of IL-1 in macrophages, but its effect was not replaced by combination treatment with IL-1 and IL-6. In sum, the results suggest that cytokine adjuvants, particularly IL-12, and CT have the potential to enhance immune responses to live viral vaccines. 相似文献

Real-time PCR for quantitation of porcine reproductive and respiratory syndrome virus and porcine circovirus type 2 in naturally-infected and challenged pigs 总被引:14,自引:0,他引:14

Real-time PCR assays were developed for quantitative detection of porcine reproductive and respiratory syndrome virus (PRRSV) and porcine circovirus type 2 (PCV2). The established real-time PCR for the quantitation of PRRSV cDNA and PCV2 DNA were found to be in the 9-log(10) linear dynamic range with excellent linearity and reliable reproducibility. Using these techniques, the distribution and quantitation of PRRSV and PCV2 in naturally infected and challenged pigs were investigated. The viral concentrations were expressed as the mean log(10) viral DNA or cDNA copy numbers per mg or ml of tested samples. For pigs infected naturally with both viruses, the lung, spleen, tonsil and lymphoid organs had the highest viral burdens with ranges from 5.73 to 8.38 and 5.65 to 6.91 for PRRSV and PCV2, respectively. The injection of formalin-inactivated Salmonella choleraesuis emulsified in complete Freund's adjuvant 1 week before and after the inoculation of both viruses resulted in PRRSV replication enhancement 2 weeks post-challenge. However, this facilitated the clearance of PRRSV 4 weeks post-challenge. Results from this study show that the established quantitative PCR could be a useful tool when applied to vaccine development and pathogenesis studies in the future. 相似文献

Porcine reproductive and respiratory syndrome (PRRS) is an infectious disease caused by a positive RNA strand arterivirus. PRRS virus (PRRSV) interacts primarily with lung macrophages. Identifying the genetic components involved in host resistance/susceptibility would represent an important step forward in the design of disease control programs. In this study, alveolar macrophages derived from five commercial pig lines were used to study the innate immune response to PRRSV infection in vitro. Analysis by flow cytometry has demonstrated that bronchial alveolar lavage fluid (BALF) preparations were almost exclusively composed of alveolar macrophages and that the pigs tested were free from infection. Macrophages from the Landrace line showed significantly reduced virus replication and poor growth of PRRSV during 30 h of infection. By 72 h, PRRSV viral load was down to 2.5 log(10) TCID(50) compared with an average of 5 log(10) TCID(50) for the other breeds tested. These observations suggest that factors intrinsic to the Landrace breed may be responsible for this reduced or delayed response to PRRSV. Preliminary investigation suggests that the PRRSV coreceptor, sialoadhesin, may not be responsible for the Landrace macrophage phenotype as its abundance and localisation were comparable in all the breeds. Strikingly, we found that the reduced or delayed growth of PRRSV was temporally associated with high levels of tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-alpha) and interleukin (IL)-8 mRNA accumulation and substantial reduction of secretion of IL-8, suggesting a key contributory role for cytokine synthesis and secretion during the innate immune response to PRRSV infection. 相似文献

Porcine reproductive and respiratory syndrome virus (PRRSV) is one of the most economically significant viral diseases in
the swine industry. Infection with PRRSV following vaccination is common, since protection is incomplete. Persistent infection
may be one of the biggest obstacles to control of the disease. “Glycan shielding” was postulated to be a primary mechanism
to explain evasion from neutralizing immune response, ensuring in vivo persistence of virus, such as HIV, SIV, and HBV. The
objective of this study was to construct recombinant adenoviruses expressing single or multiple N-linked glycosylation site
(NGS) mutant GP5 of PRRSV, and evaluate the expression in cell culture, and potential to induce immune responses in BALB/c
mice. Six recombinant adenoviruses were constructed each expressing wild-type GP5 and 1-4 NGS mutants: N44S, N44/51S, N30/44/51S,
N30/33/44/51S and N30/33S. Inoculation of BALB/c mice with all five recombinants expressing NGS mutant GP5 resulted in a significant
neutralizing antibody responses which were significantly higher than that of recombinant adenovirus expressing wild-type GP5.
But there were no significant difference in lymphocyte proliferation responses induced by wild type and NGS mutant GP5. It
indicated that glycosylations of GP5 at residues N30, N33, N44 and N51 are critical for induction of neutralizing antibodies.
These NGS mutant PRRSV GP5 will be useful to characterize the effects of glycosylation on immunogenicity in the natural host,
and may lead to a new approach for the generation of PRRSV vaccines. 相似文献

The aim of this study was to elucidate the pathogenesis of experimental infection with Korean type 1 porcine reproductive and respiratory syndrome virus (PRRSV) by defining the virus distribution, sites of viral replication, viraemia and gross and microscopical lesions in conventional pigs studied for 28 days after intranasal inoculation. Mean rectal temperature was significantly higher in infected pigs than in negative control pigs at 2 days post inoculation (dpi) (P=0.004), 3 dpi (P<0.001), 4 dpi (P=0.003) and 5 dpi (P=0.034). The log(10)TCID(50)/ml of type 1 PRRSV increased significantly at 0-1 dpi (P=0.024) and 5-7 dpi (P=0.029), but decreased at 10-14 dpi (P=0.026) and 14-21 dpi (P=0.012) in infected pigs. Infected pigs developed multifocal, tan-mottled areas of lung tissue with irregular and indistinct borders. Microscopical lesions, when present, were multifocal, mild to moderate, generally most extensive at 5-7 dpi (P=0.036), and were nearly resolved at 28 dpi. Type 1 PRRSV nucleic acid and antigen were detected exclusively within the cytoplasm of macrophages and type I and II pneumocytes. The score for PRRSV-positive cells increased at 3-7 dpi (P<0.05) and decreased at 10-14 dpi (P=0.034) in infected pigs. Thus, respiratory disease was reproduced in conventional pigs by infection with Korean type 1 PRRSV. 相似文献

Porcine reproductive and respiratory syndrome virus (PRRSV) continues to be one of the most important diseases facing swine industry today. Following PRRSV infection pigs develop both humoral and cell-mediated responses following PRRSV exposure; however, the relative importance in protection and clearance of the virus is not yet completely understood. Swine contain a large percentage of gammadelta T-lymphocytes in peripheral circulation capable of responding to various pathogens in both an innate and specific immune response. The objectives of this study were to determine whether gammadelta lymphocytes functionally respond to PRRSV upon initial exposure and re-exposure. Four month old PRRSV free gilts were intranasally inoculated with a field isolate MN-30100 then assessed at various time points post infection. On day 120, pigs were re-exposed with MN-30100 PRRSV strain and subsequently were bled on days 0, 7, and 14 post re-exposure. Lymphocyte subpopulations, antigen specific proliferation, and IFN-gamma production were evaluated throughout the study. Circulating gammadelta lymphocytes in PRRSV exposed animals expanded between days 14 to 70 (d14-d70, p = 0.016); following antigen stimulation, gammadelta lymphocyte proliferated by day 14 (d0-d14, p = 0.001) continuing through day 60. gammadelta lymphocytes produced IFN-gamma by day 14 pi continuing through day 50 (d0-d50, p = 0.004). Following re-exposure both gammadelta+ and CD4+ lymphocytes increased in IFN-gamma production. These results are not fully conclusive on the role of gammadelta lymphocytes against PRRSV; the data indicate that gammadelta lymphocytes specifically respond to PRRSV. 相似文献

Autophagy is an evolutionarily conserved lysosome-dependent degradation pathway that acts in the maintenance of cellular homeostasis and plays important functions in viral replication and pathogenesis. In this study, we investigated the role of autophagy in the replication of porcine reproductive and respiratory syndrome virus (PRRSV), an agent that has caused devastating losses in the international swine industry since the late 1980s. Using protein quantification and microscopy, we observed that PRRSV infection results in LC3-I/II conversion, an increased accumulation of punctate GFP-LC3-expressing cells, and a higher number of autophagosome-like double-membrane vesicles in the cytoplasm of host cells. Inhibition of autophagy using 3-methyladenine (3-MA) or small interfering RNAs targeting ATG7 and Beclin-1 led to a significant reduction in PRRSV titers and protein expression. Conversely, induction of autophagy by rapamycin resulted in increased viral replication. These results demonstrate that PRRSV infection induces autophagy which, in turn, enhances viral replication efficiency. 相似文献

Neutralizing antibody responses of pigs infected with natural GP5 N-glycan mutants of porcine reproductive and respiratory syndrome virus 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2

In order to assess the effect of the N-glycans associated with the GP5 neutralization epitope of porcine reproductive and respiratory syndrome virus (PRRSV) on the neutralizing antibody (Ab) response of swine, groups of young pigs were infected with PRRSV strains differing in N-glycosylation pattern. The humoral immune response to strain VR-2332, harboring four potential N-glycan sites, was compared to that of two natural field isolates carrying mutations either abolishing the N-glycosylation site at position 44 (N44) or the two N-glycosylation sites in the hypervariable region upstream of the neutralization epitope (HV-1). The pigs were bled at intervals and their sera were assayed for neutralizing Abs by indirect and competition ELISAs using peptides containing the GP5 neutralization epitope, and selectively for infectivity neutralization of a number of PRRSV strains. In addition, viremia was monitored by quantitative RT-PCR, and anti-N-protein Ab formation was measured by HerdChek ELISA. The neutralizing Ab responses as measured by peptide ELISA varied greatly between individual pigs infected with each PRRSV strain. Some pigs generated high titers of peptide binding Abs between 7 and 28 days post infection (p.i.), whereas other pigs had not generated a response by 90 days p.i. However, the HV-1-infected pigs generated Abs to the neutralization epitope more rapidly and to a 5-10 times higher level than VR-2332-infected pigs, and the Abs neutralized the homologous HV-1 virus 10-20 times more efficiently than PRRSV strains VR-2332, N44, MN184, or SDSU73. In contrast, most N44-infected pigs generated neutralizing Abs only after 42 days p.i. and only to low levels. The results suggest that the deletions of the N-glycans or other amino acid substitutions in the GP5 ectodomains of the mutants affect the immunogenicity of the neutralization epitope and the specificity of the Abs raised to it but not the sensitivity of the virions to Ab neutralization. 相似文献

Porcine reproductive and respiratory syndrome virus (PRRSV) continues to be responsible for financial losses in the swine industry worldwide. It remains undetermined whether genetic variability of the host in susceptibility to PRRSV exists and if this variability can be exploited to help control this important disease. The objective of this study was to determine if an in vitro flow cytometry (FACS) assay that detects the percentage of monocyte-derived macrophages (MDM) infected with PRRSV could be utilized to demonstrate genetic variability in the susceptibility between distinct lines of pigs. Over 400 growing pigs from six genetic lines maintained in a single commercial breeding herd were screened using an in vitro FACS assay. From this initial screening, two genetically diverse lines of pigs that were also divergent in their FACS results were selected for further study. An additional 264 pigs from these two lines were subsequently tested for in vitro susceptibility to PRRSV. As in the preliminary screening, the Large White line had significantly higher average percent positive MDM over the Duroc-Pietrain synthetic line. This report suggests a genetic component for susceptibility to PRRSV exists and that the in vitro assay may be useful in predicting the relative susceptibility to PRRSV in large groups of animals. 相似文献

Kinetics of humoral immune response to the major structural proteins of the porcine reproductive and respiratory syndrome virus 总被引:16,自引:0,他引:16

Summary The kinetics of appearance of antibodies directed to the major structural proteins N, M and E of porcine reproductive and respiratory syndrome virus (PRRSV) was followed in pigs naturally- and experimentally-exposed to the virus. Specific IgM antibody titers were first detected by indirect immunofluorescence (IIF) at the end of the first week of PRRSV infection, peaked by day 14 to 21 post-inoculation (p.i.), then rapidly decreased to undetectable levels by day 35 to 42 p.i. On the other hand, specific IgG antibody titers peaked by day 21 to 28 p.i. and remained unchanged to the end of the 6- or 9-week observation period; in addition, a persistent viremia was observed. Virus neutralizing (VN) antibody titers >8 were not detected until 3 to 4 weeks p.i. Taken together, the results obtained by Western blotting analyses using purified virus andE. coli-expressed ORFs 5 to 7 gene products, suggested that antibodies directed against the envelope E protein appear by day 7 p.i., whereas antibodies directed against the nucleocapsid N and membrane M proteins can only be detected by the end of the second week p.i. No correlation could be demonstrated between VN and IIF antibody titers, viremia, and viral protein specificities of circulating antibodies at various times p.i. 相似文献
