Plasmid vaccine pBK-CMVMP1LC113 expressing the matrix (M) gene of rinderpest virus was assessed for its potential to protect rabbits against a lethal viral challenge. Rabbits immunized with plasmids expressing the M gene were not protected when challenged with lapinized rinderpest virus, despite the production of anti-M antibodies, while rabbits immunized with rinderpest tissue culture vaccine were completely protected from a lethal challenge with lapinized rinderpest virus. The plasmid vaccine also had no significant effect on the lymphopenia in challenged rabbits. The results indicate that rinderpest M protein does not have a protective role in rinderpest infection. 相似文献

Hyperimmune sera were produced by serial inoculation of rabbits with Vero cell-adapted, sucrose gradient-purified Nigerian peste des petits ruminants virus (PPRV) isolate. Two antisera produced, neutralized the homologous PPRV but not the heterologous rinderpest Kabette "O" virus. The antisera gave strong precipitin lines with purified PPRV antigens and were used to detect PPRV and rinderpest virus antigens from ante-mortem secretions and post-mortem tissue homogenates from PPR and rinderpest virus infected goats and cattle by the agar gel precipitation tests (AGPT). The hyperimmune sera gave good titration curves with both purified Nigerian goat and the United Arab Emirate wildlife PPRV isolates in the indirect enzyme linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA). Results of indirect ELISA showed that although there were some cross reactions with the rinderpest, canine-distemper and measles viruses, at 1:100 dilution, the antisera would give a positive signal with only the homologous PPR virus. 相似文献

Bovine T lymphoblast cell lines transformed by the protozoan Theileria parva were compared with bovine kidney (BK) and Vero cells for their ability to isolate various strains of rinderpest virus from tissues and infected secretions. All of the strains of rinderpest virus that were tested, including attenuated cell-culture, caprinised and lapinised vaccines, and both mild and virulent pathogenic strains, readily induced syncytial cytopathic effect (cpe) in T lymphoblasts. The cpe could often be detected within one day of inoculation of lymphoblasts, whereas it took three to 14 days to appear in Vero and BK cells. Using lymphoblasts it was possible to reisolate rinderpest virus from nine of 42 swabs collected from three cattle experimentally infected with an isolate from a recent outbreak of mild disease whereas the same swabs yielded only one reisolate on BK cells. It was also possible using the lymphoblasts to detect infectious virus in the ocular, nasal and oral secretions of goats and rabbits infected with caprinised and lapinised virus, respectively. Peste des petits ruminants virus appeared to grow as rapidly as rinderpest virus in the lymphoblasts whereas canine distemper virus readily induced cpe on first passage but less readily on subsequent passage. Measles virus induced relatively little cpe when inoculated into lymphoblasts and did not appear to passage in these cells. The lymphoblasts are easy to maintain in culture and since they rapidly recovered 11 isolates from 37 diagnostic samples could prove useful in laboratories carrying out rinderpest diagnosis. 相似文献

In 2011, ten years after the last reported outbreak, the eradication of rinderpest was declared. However, as rinderpest virus stocks still exist, there remains a risk of rinderpest re-introduction. 相似文献

The procedures for the preparation of the rinderpest hyperimmune sera in rabbits were studied by comparing the sera from rabbits immunised by three different schedules of inoculations. The best sera for use in immunodiffusion tests were obtained from rabbits inoculated first with rinderpest hyperimmune serum and lapinised virus, and then with lapinised virus mixed with oil adjuvant twice at weekly intervals. Those rabbits which received additional one or two intravenous inoculations with lapinised virus yielded satisfactory sera for use in the diagnosis of rinderpest by immunodiffusion technique. 相似文献

Monoclonal antibodies (MAb) raised against the RBOK vaccine strain of rinderpest virus were characterized by radio-immunoprecipitation (RIPA) and in the indirect ELISA using measles (MV), distemper (CDV), rinderpest (RPV) and peste des petits ruminants viruses (PPRV). Those found to be specific for the matrix (M) protein and the nucleocapsid (N) protein could be classified into different groups on the basis of the anti-morbillivirus MAb classification scheme; a number of these MAb showed a selective recognition of RPV, measles virus and distemper virus, or of different isolates of rinderpest virus, demonstrating that greater inter-isolate variation occurs than was apparent from analyses using polyclonal antisera. One group of anti-F protein MAb (group F1) reacted with all isolates of both RPV and PPRV. A second group of anti-N protein MAb (group N1/A) reacted with all RPV isolates, but not with the PPRV isolates. Furthermore, these group N1/A antibodies reacted strongly with RPV isolates which were upon original isolation of high pathogenicity, but had a weaker reaction against the isolates of this virus which were of low pathogenicity. Thus, MAb against RPV, in particular those against the N protein offered a potential superior to that of molecular analyses for "isolate fingerprinting", the differentiation of RPV from PPRV and the discrimination between rinderpest viruses which had been, upon isolation, of either high or low pathogenicity. 相似文献

The re-emergence of rinderpest virus in East Africa in 1979 caused widespread outbreaks of disease and subclinical infection throughout the region until mid-1983. Subsequent massive emergency vaccination campaigns have been successful in eliminating clinical rinderpest from Tanzania and preventing its spread southwards. Unfortunately the virus is still endemic in north-eastern Uganda and has recently caused epidemic outbreaks with high mortality in cattle in that country. In Kenya, buffaloes (Syncerus caffer) in and around the Masai Mara game reserve have developed antibodies to rinderpest virus as recently as late 1984. Although there have been no outbreaks of clinical disease in Tanzania or Kenya from April 1983 to the end of 1985 this serological evidence plus the increasing incidence of clinical outbreaks in Uganda indicate that rinderpest virus still threatens East Africa. The substantial aid which has been provided to the region for rinderpest control must be maintained. 相似文献

More than 400 small ruminant sera from Za?re were screened for antibodies to IBR, CHV2, BVD, bovine and ovine PI3, BRS and rinderpest viruses. Sera from local animals were negative for BVD, PI3 and rinderpest viruses: 8% of sera were positive for IBR virus, all with higher titers to CHV2; 31% of sera were positive to BRS virus. 相似文献

Approximately 0.2% (n=4397) of the bovids (cattle and buffalo) in Sri Lanka were sampled, from June 1992 using a multi-stage sampling procedure. Serum antibodies for the rinderpest virus were detected using the competitive enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay. The age, the agroclimatic zone, the management system practiced in the farms, and the vaccination history of the sampled bovids were studied as potential risk factors for being seropositive.
The prevalence of rinderpest antibodies in non-vaccinated bovids was 3.5% (n=4101). The prevalence was higher in the dry zone (9%; where the outbreak emerged in 1987), compared to bovids in the other zones (1%). Seropositive bovids over three years of age were approximately at fourfold higher chances of being seropositive compared to those that were ≤3 years old. The higher prevalence in older animals is probably due to exposure to the virus during the 1987 epidemic. Bovids from the dry zone (annual rainfall 20 to 35 inches) were at higher odds of being seropositive even after controlling for the possible effects of age, agroclimatic zone, management system and vaccination. The fact that 62% of bovids from the dry zone in this study were reared under extensive management system (free grazing) which allow unrestricted contact between animals, may be the reason for the above finding. A relatively poor response to vaccination observed in vaccinated bovids (seroprevalence=12%; n=296) could be attributed to difficulties in maintaining the vaccine at recommended temperatures in the field. This is the first island-wide study on seroprevalence of rinderpest in Sri Lanka. 相似文献

In January 1997, serum samples from 1346 adult sheep and goats were tested by a competitive ELISA to determine the prevalence of rinderpest in the northern zone of Tanzania. Seroconversion rates of 20%, 13%, 9%, 7% and 3% in sheep and goats were recorded in Ngorongoro, Monduli, Hai, Arumeru and Simanjiro districts, respectively. The low profile and insidious nature of the rinderpest virus involved caused very mild disease in cattle in some of these area. The mild signs associated with this outbreak of rinderpest resulted in difficulty in its diagnosis. In these circumstances, the presence of rinderpest antibody in sheep and goats served as a valuable and effective indicator of the rinderpest outbreak in cattle. 相似文献

The one-humped camel (Camelus dromedarius) was first introduced to German South West Africa (Namibia) for military purposes in 1889. Introductions to the Cape of Good Hope (South Africa) in 1897 and Rhodesia (Zimbabwe) in 1903 were initially with a view to replacing oxen that died of rinderpest. Disease risks attendant on these introductions were recognised and to some extent guarded against. There were, however, relatively few problems. One camel was diagnosed as having foot-and-mouth disease. Mange in camels from India caused some concern as did trypanosomosis from Sudan. Trypanosomosis was introduced into both the Cape of Good Hope and Transvaal. Antibodies to some common livestock disease were found in later years. 相似文献

Between 1998 and 2005, the Regional Reference Laboratory at Bingerville (Ivory-Coast) received samples for analysis from Western and Central African countries. From a total of 606 sera; 65 tissue samples and 75 swabs received, no rinderpest virus or specific gene products or antibodies against rinderpest were detected. Use of the PCR on the tissue and swabs (total of 140 samples) identified the genomic presence of BVD (4/140), MCF (2/140), IBR (1/140) and FMD (6/140) viruses. These cause diseases that produce similar clinical signs to rinderpest. The quality of many samples sent to the reference laboratory did not meet the laboratory requirements and this compromised analysis of some specimens. 相似文献

In the light of the recent outbreaks of rinderpest in Africa a further assessment of the efficacy of the simultaneous inoculation of rinderpest virus vaccine and contagious bovine pleuropneumonia vaccine was undertaken. Groups of cattle were inoculated with a dual preparation of rinderpest vaccine virus and Mycoplasma mycoides subspecies mycoides or M mycoides alone. These groups were then challenged with M mycoides, first unsuccessfully by an in-contact challenge method and then by subcutaneous challenge. All animals were examined clinically after challenge for evidence of contagious bovine pleuropneumonia and serologically for rinderpest virus and M mycoides mycoides antibodies. There was no evidence that the serological response to the dual vaccine was in any way less than that to either agent given alone and no clinical disease was detected in these animals after in-contact challenge. However, after subcutaneous challenge, the dual vaccinated groups reacted similarly to an unvaccinated control group and unlike the group vaccinated only with M mycoides. This would indicate that the rinderpest virus component of the dual vaccine interfered with the ability of the M mycoides component to induce a fully effective immune response. In the pan African rinderpest campaign the use of the dual vaccine in areas where contagious bovine pleuropneumonia occurs should be carefully considered; in areas where the disease does not occur it is contraindicated. 相似文献

We report surveillance for rinderpest virus in wildlife populations in three major ecosystems of East Africa: Great Rift Valley, Somali and Tsavo from 1994 to 2003. Three hundred and eighty wild animals were sampled for detection of rinderpest virus, antigen or genome and 1133 sampled for antibody in sera from Kenya, Uganda, Ethiopia and Tanzania from 20 species. This was done modifying for wildlife the internationally recommended standards for rinderpest investigation and diagnosis in livestock. The animals were selected according to susceptibility and preference given to gregarious species, and populations were selected according to abundance, availability and association with livestock. Rinderpest virus, antigen and/or genome were detected in Kenya; within Tsavo, Nairobi and Meru National Parks. Serological results from 864 animals (of which 65% were buffalo) from the region were selected as unequivocal; showing the temporal and spatial aspects of past epidemics. Recent infection has been only in or peripheral to the Somali ecosystem (in Kenya). Our evidence supports the hypothesis that wildlife is not important in the long-term maintenance of rinderpest and that wildlife are infected sporadically most likely from a cattle source, although this needs to be proven in the Somali ecosystem. Wildlife will continue to be a key to monitoring the remaining virus circulation in Africa. 相似文献

Rinderpest was brought under control in Kenya in 1976 but in April 1986 an outbreak of the disease occurred in cattle in Western Kenya, five kilometres from the Kenya-Uganda border. This was the first confirmed field outbreak of the disease in Kenya after a lull of over 10 years. Clinical disease was confined to unvaccinated zebu calves aged six to eight months from which rinderpest virus was isolated. High titres of antibodies to rinderpest virus were demonstrated in sera collected from sheep and goats that were grazing together with the affected cattle herds; there was, however, no evidence of clinical disease in these small ruminants and wildlife species in the affected area. The disease outbreak was rapidly stamped out by quarantine and vaccination. 相似文献

Three goats, experimentally infected with rinderpest virus were examined for the development and distribution of precipitating antigens in various tissues and secretions using the agar gel immunodiffusion test. Virus antigens were detected in ocular secretions and lymph node biopsies from the second to the fourth and fifth days of pyrexia, respectively, but were not detected in nasal secretions. Precipitating antigens were demonstrated in various lymphoid organs, the lung and abomasum of a goat killed on the fourth day of pyrexia. These findings are discussed in relation to the epidemiology of rinderpest in goats in Africa. 相似文献

One hundred and ninety-five goat and 67 sheep sera collected from various parts of southern Nigeria were screened for neutralising antibodies to both the peste des petits ruminants (PPR) and rinderpest viruses. Neutralising antibodies against both viruses were found in the sheep and goat sera examined. Parallel titration of samples which neutralised both viruses indicated a primary infection with the PPR virus (PPRV). However, some samples which failed to neutralise PPRV neutralised the rinderpest virus (RV) indicating RV activity in sheep and goats in Nigeria. These findings are discussed in relation to the diagnosis of PPRV infection and the recent reappearance of bovine rinderpest in Nigeria. 相似文献

Goats vaccinated with attenuated rinderpest were protected from peste-des-petits-ruminants virus for at least 12 months; vaccinated animals were unable to transmit the challenge virus. Before challenge neutralising antibodies were directed primarily against rinderpest but following exposure to peste-des-petits-ruminants, a high antibody level to both viruses was found. 相似文献

The immune response of cattle and pigs to a vaccinia recombinant virus containing the fusion (F) protein gene of rinderpest virus was examined. Half the cattle and all the pigs gave humoral response to primary vaccination and all the cattle gave an anamnestic response to a second vaccination 28 days after the primary vaccination. All the cattle after a single or secondary vaccination were completely protected clinically after exposure to a lethal dose of the Saudi 1/81 strain of virus. Prior vaccination with another TK- vaccinia recombinant (VVCAT) suppressed, but did not abrogate, the immune response to the rinderpest F recombinant. The pigs gave a humoral immune response in the absence of any local reaction at the site of vaccination. 相似文献
