Studies were made to determine whether infectious bursal disease virus (IBDV) infection would affect the response of chickens to turkey herpesvirus (HVT) vaccination in the development and level of HVT viremia and virus-neutralizing (VN) antibodies to HVT. The HVT viremia in the vaccinated chickens was not affected by IBDV, whether IBDV was inoculated simultaneously with HVT vaccination at one day of age or whether it was inoculated 3 weeks postvaccination with HVT. However, VN antibody response to HVT was significantly suppressed (P less than 0.001) when vaccinated chickens were exposed to IBDV either at the time of vaccination or at 3 weeks postvaccination. Such immunosuppression by IBDV of VN antibody response to HVT vaccination may result in a reduced antiviral immunity against Marek's disease virus. 相似文献

The average percentage of acid alpha naphthyl acetate esterase reacting lymphocytes (APARL) was enumerated in the peripheral blood of chickens challenged with Marek's disease after vaccination with either turkey herpesvirus (HVT), inactivated Marek's disease virus (IMDV) or a mixture of the two (bivalent vaccine). A gradual increase in APARL value was noticed in the vaccinated chickens from day 7 to 70 after challenge with a virulent Marek's disease virus. The increase was consistent and significantly higher in bivalent (HVT plus IMDV) than in HVT-vaccinated chickens while the slight increase noticed in IMDV vaccinated-challenged birds was inconsistent. 相似文献

An enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) was applied to evaluate the antibody response of commercial White Leghorn chickens to vaccination against Marek's disease (MD) at hatch (day 0) with serotype-1 (Rispens), -2 (SB-1), or -3 (turkey herpesvirus, HVT) vaccine virus and to challenge on day 21 with MD virus. Antigens for the test were whole chicken embryo fibroblast cells infected with Rispens, SB-1, or HVT. The chickens were progeny of stock that had been vaccinated with HVT, and on day 21 the nonvaccinated group had higher levels of maternal antibodies to HVT than to other antigens (P < 0.05). Only SB-1 vaccine had induced antibodies by day 21, and this was detected only against homologous antigens. On day 49, all three vaccines had induced higher levels of antibodies to homologous than to heterologous antigens. Marek's Disease virus (MDV) induced antibodies to all three antigens, but challenging vaccinated chicks did not significantly increase levels of antibodies on day 81 to any of the three antigens. It was concluded that an ELISA using whole cells as antigens would have potential value for monitoring the antibody response induced by MD vaccines and virulent MDV. 相似文献

Eight recently developed 15.B congenic lines of chickens were tested for Marek's disease (MD) resistance by intra-abdominal injection of cell-associated preparations of MD virus of a virulent strain (JM), a very virulent strain (Md5), or Md5 after vaccination with turkey herpesvirus (HVT) strain FC126. Chickens of the 15.N congenic line (B15B21 or B21B21) were very resistant to JM-induced MD, in contrast to chickens homozygous for the B-haplotypes 2, 5, 12, 13, 15, or 19. After Md5 infection, more than 88% of the chickens in all of the congenic lines developed MD. However, when chickens were vaccinated with HVT before being inoculated with Md5, the B5 and B12 homozygotes were more resistant to MD than were the B2, B13, or B19 homozygotes, and B15 and B21 homozygotes had intermediate resistance. B5B5 and B2B5 F2 chicks inoculated with HVT and Md5 had a lower prevalence of MD than B2B2 sibs. These results demonstrate that a protocol involving HVT vaccination of chicks followed by infection with very virulent MD virus will allow the detection of B-haplotypes determining MD resistance, some of which are not detectable in unvaccinated chicks challenged with virulent MD. 相似文献

In a study of outbreaks of Marek's disease in quails, 220 adult quails vaccinated with herpesvirus of turkeys (HVT) were examined pathologically and serologically for Marek's disease (MD). Forty-three of the 220 quails exhibited microscopic lesions similar to those of chickens with MD. MD-virus-specific antigen was found in feather tips of 44 of the 220 birds, and the HVT-specific antibody was found in sera of 56 of the 220 birds by agar gel precipitation. There was a positive correlation between the incidence of lymphomatous changes and the presence of MD-virus-specific antigen, and there was a negative correlation between the incidence of lymphomatous changes and the presence of antibody against HVT on a flock basis. 相似文献

Recombinant strains of herpesvirus of turkeys (HVT) were constructed that contain either the fusion protein gene or the hemagglutinin-neuraminidase gene of Newcastle disease virus (NDV) inserted into a nonessential gene of HVT. Expression of the NDV antigens was regulated from a strong promoter element derived from the Rous sarcoma virus long terminal repeat. Recombinant HVT strains were stable and fully infectious in cell culture and in chickens. Chickens receiving a single intra-abdominal inoculation at 1 day of age with recombinant HVT expressing the NDV fusion protein had an immunological response and were protected (> 90%) against lethal intramuscular challenge at 28 days of age with the neurotropic velogenic NDV strain Texas GB. Recombinant HVT expressing the NDV hemagglutinin-neuraminidase provided partial protection (47%) against the same challenge. Chickens vaccinated with recombinant HVT vaccines had low levels of protection against NDV replication in the trachea when challenged ocularly. Recombinant HVT vaccines and the parent HVT strain provided similar levels of protection to chickens challenged with the very virulent RB1B strain of Marek's disease virus, indicating that insertion of foreign sequences into the HVT genome did not compromise the ability of HVT to protect against Marek's disease. 相似文献

One-day-old White Leghorn and broiler chicks with maternal antibody to turkey herpesvirus (HVT) were vaccinated with 300 or 1,000 plaque-forming units (PFU) of cell-free or cell-associated HVT vaccine and challenged with virulent Marek's disease virus (MDV) by contact exposure. Broiler chicks receiving 300 PFU of cell-associated HVT had a 3.3% incidence of MD lesions, whereas only 2.0% of those receiving 1,000 PFU had macroscopic lesions. Broiler chicks vaccinated with 300 PFU of cell-free vaccine had 6.8% gross lesions, and 0.67% of the birds receiving 1,000 PFU had MD lesions. Unvaccinated broiler chickens had a 28.3% incidence of MD lesions. Unvaccinated White Leghorn chickens had a 48.9% incidence of macroscopic lesions, whereas 5.4% of the birds receiving 300 PFU of cell-associated HVT had gross lesions, and 8.3% of the birds vaccinated with 1,000 PFU had lesions. In contrast, 6.7% of the chicks vaccinated with 300 PFU of cell-free HVT had MD lesions, and only 4.0% of those receiving 1,000 PFU of cell-free HVT had macroscopic lesions. 相似文献

Embryo vaccination against Marek's disease with serotypes 1, 2 and 3 vaccines administered singly or in combination 总被引：2，自引：0，他引：2
Marek's disease virus (MDV) vaccines of serotypes 1 and 2 administered in 18-day-old embryonated eggs induced better protection against post-hatch challenge at 3 days with virulent MDV than vaccines given at hatch. Embryonal vaccination with a polyvalent vaccine containing equal quantities of serotypes 1 and 2 of MDV and serotype 3 virus (turkey herpesvirus, HVT) was also significantly more effective than post-hatch vaccination. These and earlier results indicate that protective efficacy of single or combined Marek's disease vaccine serotypes against post-hatch challenge at 3 days can be substantially improved if the vaccines are injected into 18-day embryos rather than at hatch. Injection of vaccines of serotypes 1 or 2 into embryonated eggs or hatched chicks did not cause detectable gross or microscopic lesions in chickens. Vaccine viruses of serotypes 1 and 2 could be isolated from spleen cells of chickens 1 week post-vaccination, and the titer of recoverable viruses was higher in chickens that received the vaccines at the 18th day of embryonation than in chickens vaccinated at hatch. Although embryo vaccination with HVT usually provided better protection than post-hatch vaccination against early post-hatch challenge with variant pathotypes of MDV, the protection was poor regardless of vaccination protocol. If challenge with variant pathotypes of MDV was delayed until embryonally or post-hatch HVT-vaccinated chickens were 21 days of age, protection of chickens by HVT was not enhanced. Thus, resistance induced by embryonal vaccination with HVT was qualitatively similar to that induced by post-hatch vaccination with this virus. 相似文献

The growth and plaque formation by turkey herpesvirus (HVT) amd Marek's disease herpesvirus (MDHV) were examined in QT35 cells, a continuous fibroblast cell line derived from chemically induced tumors of Japanese quail. HVT grew and formed plaques consistently in QT35 cells when inoculated with cell-culture-propagated virus or peripheral mononuclear leukocytes (PML) from chickens that had been inoculated with HVT. Both oncogenic and nononcogenic strains of MDHV, however, failed to grow and induced neither plaques nor cytopathic effects in QT35 cells, whether inoculated with cell-culture-grown virus or heavily infected PML. When PML from chickens infected with both HVT and MDHV were assayed, only HVT plaques had developed, despite the presence in the inocula of high levels of MDHV with less HVT. The QT35 cell line provides a simple in vitro system for differentiating between HVT and MDHV and for selective isolation and identification of HVT from chickens infected with both HVT and MDHV. 相似文献

Glycoproteins gB of Marek's disease virus (MDV) and herpesvirus of turkeys (HVT) related to virus neutralization were purified from HVT-infected cells by affinity chromatography. Immunization of chickens with purified glycoproteins gB resulted in partial protection against MD. Neutralizing antibodies were detected in chickens immunized with HVT-gB. 相似文献

White leghorn chickens on five farms were given a bivalent Marek's disease (MD) vaccine consisting of turkey herpesvirus (HVT) and SB-1 (a nononcogenic MD virus); other chickens received only HVT. The farms had histories of "vaccination failures," presumably owing to an exceptionally virulent challenge MD virus. The bivalent vaccine uniformly protected chickens better than HVT alone between 12 and 16-20 weeks of age, when serious MD losses occurred. During that period, total mortality in groups given both viruses ranged from 0.39 to 1.26% (mean 0.86%), whereas that in HVT-vaccinated groups not exposed to SB-1 varied from 1.92 to 7.44% (mean 3.43%). Chickens in pens or rows with close contact to those given bivalent vaccine also had low MD mortality rates (0.46-1.06%, mean 0.77%), probably from the spread of SB-1. 相似文献

A multivalent in ovo vaccine (MIV) was tested for safety and efficacy in a commercial broiler complex. The MIV comprised five replicating live viruses including serotypes 1, 2, and 3 of Marek's disease virus (MDV), an intermediate infectious bursal disease virus (IBDV) and a recombinant fowl poxvirus (FPV) vector vaccine containing HN and F genes of Newcastle disease virus (NDV). The performance of MIV-vaccinated broilers was compared with that of hatchmates that received turkey herpesvirus (HVT) alone (routinely used in ovo vaccine in the broiler complex). The chickens that hatched from the MIV-injected and HVT-injected eggs were raised under commercial conditions in six barns. Barn 1 housed 17,853 MIV-vaccinated chickens and each of the barns 2-6 housed 18,472-22,798 HVT-vaccinated chickens. The HVT-vaccinated chickens were given infectious bronchitis virus (IBV) and NDV vaccines at hatch and at 2 wk of age. The MIV-vaccinated chickens received IBV vaccine at hatch and IBV + NDV at 2 wk of age. The relative values of hatchability of eggs, livability and weight gain of chickens, and condemnation rates at processing were comparable between the MIV and the HVT groups (P > 0.05). Chickens from the MIV- and the HVT-vaccinated groups were challenged with virulent viruses under laboratory conditions. The resistance of vaccinated chickens against Marek's disease could not be assessed because of high natural resistance of unvaccinated commercial broilers to virulent MDV. The relative resistances of the MIV- and the HVT-vaccinated groups, respectively, against other virulent viruses were as follows: IBDV, 100% for both groups; NDV, 81% vs. 19%; FPV, 86% vs. 0%. The successful use of MIV under field conditions expands the usefulness of the in ovo technology for poultry. 相似文献

A commercial infectious bronchitis virus (IBV) vaccine of the Massachusetts 41 strain was injected in embryonating chicken eggs on embryonation day (ED) 18. The IBV vaccine was pathogenic for embryos, and it was passaged in chicken kidney tissue culture to reduce the pathogenicity. At the 40th tissue culture passage (P40-IBV), the virus became apathogenic for the embryos. Maternal antibody-positive or -negative chicks hatching from eggs injected with P40-IBV developed antibody to IBV and were protected against challenge exposure at 4 weeks of age with virulent Massachusetts 41 IBV. Although P40-IBV protected chicks when administered on ED 18, this virus did not protect chicks well if given at hatch. When combined with the turkey herpesvirus (HVT), P40-IBV given on ED 18 did not interfere with the protection against challenge exposure with virulent Marek's disease virus, nor did the presence of HVT interfere with protection by P40-IBV. Thus, under laboratory conditions, IBV vaccine could be combined with HVT to form a bivalent embryonal vaccine. 相似文献

Protective efficacy of Marek's disease virus (MDV) CVI-988 CEF65 clone C against challenge infection with three very virulent MDV strains 总被引：3，自引：0，他引：3
Comparative 50% protective dose (PD50) assays were performed using a plaque-purified preparation of Marek's disease virus (MDV) strain CVI-988 at the 65th chicken embryo fibroblast (CEF) passage level (MDV CVI-988 CEF65 clone C) and three commercial MD vaccines: herpesvirus of turkeys (HVT) FC126, MDV CVI-988 CEF35, and a bivalent vaccine composed of HVT FC126 and MDV SB-1. In addition, comparative PD50 assays were performed in groups of chickens with maternal antibody to each of the three vaccines. Three representatives of the newly emerged biovariant very virulent (vv) MDV strains-RB/1B, Tun, and Md5-were employed as challenge virus. The experiments made feasible the differentiation between virulent MDV and vvMDV strains, within serotype 1. Vaccination with CVI-988 clone C vaccine resulted in PD50 estimates of about 5 plaque-forming units (PFUs) against challenge infection with each of the three vvMDV strains. The PD50 estimate of CVI-988 clone C vaccine was 12-fold below the PD50 of HVT FC126. The protective synergism of bivalent vaccine, composed of HVT and SB-1, was confirmed by groups given the lowest vaccine doses. The bivalent vaccine, however, resulted in incomplete protection in groups given the highest vaccine doses. Homologous maternal antibodies to serotype 1 caused a fivefold increase in the PD50 estimate of CVI-988 clone C. Heterologous maternal antibodies against HVT did not interfere with efficacy of CVI-988 clone C vaccination. However, the combination of maternal antibodies against both HVT and SB-1 (serotypes 2 and 3) showed a strong adverse effect on CVI-988 clone C vaccine.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS) 相似文献

Dilution of Marek's disease (MD) vaccines is a common practice in the field to reduce the cost associated with vaccination. In this study we have evaluated the effect of diluting MD vaccines on the protection against MD, vaccine and challenge MD virus (MDV) kinetics, and body weight when challenged with strains Md5 (very virulent MDV) and 648A (very virulent plus MDV) by contact at day of age. The following four vaccination protocols were evaluated in meat-type chickens: turkey herpesvirus (HVT) at manufacturer-recommended full dose; HVT diluted 1:10; HVT + SB-1 at the manufacturer-recommended full dose; and HVT + SB-1 diluted 1:10 for HVT and 1:5 for SB-1. Vaccine was administered at hatch subcutaneously. One-day-old chickens were placed in floor pens and housed together with ten 15-day-old chickens that had been previously inoculated with 500 PFU of either Md5 or 648A MDV strains. Chickens were individually identified with wing bands, and for each chicken samples of feather pulp and blood were collected at 1, 3, and 8 wk posthatch. Body weights were recorded at 8 wk for every chicken. Viral DNA load of wild-type MDV, SB-1, and HVT were evaluated by real time-PCR. Our results showed that dilution of MD vaccines can lead to reduced MD protection, reduced relative body weights, reduced vaccine DNA during the first 3 wk, and increased MDV DNA load. The detrimental effect of vaccine dilution was more evident in females than in males and was more evident when the challenge virus was 648A. However, lower relative body weights and higher MDV DNA load could be detected in chickens challenged with strain Md5, even in the absence of obvious differences in protection. 相似文献

Attenuated revertant serotype 1 Marek's disease viruses: safety and protective efficacy. 总被引：2，自引：0，他引：2
R L Witter 《Avian diseases》1991,35(4):877-891
In earlier studies, a revertant serotype 1 Marek's disease virus (MDV), clone Md11/75C/R2, was found to be a highly protective vaccine virus but was mildly pathogenic for susceptible chickens. The term "revertant" indicates that the virus, after attenuation, gained virulence following backpassage in chickens. The present study is an attempt to develop a more attenuated but still protective vaccine virus from Md11/75C/R2. Forty-two derivative viruses or clones from Md11/75C/R2 were evaluated. Two of these, designated clones R2/23 and R2/29, induced viremia but little or no pathology in preliminary trials and were selected for further study. In a series of nine trials, both clones provided protection against challenge with very virulent MDV strains that was superior to that induced by turkey herpesvirus (HVT) and was not significantly different (P greater than 0.05) from that induced by a bivalent (HVT + SB-1) vaccine. Both clones appeared fully attenuated based on pathogenicity tests in susceptible antibody-negative chickens. Both clones gained virulence on backpassage in chickens, but this seemed of little concern because neither virus spread by contact to other chickens. Although the two clones were very similar, clone R2/23 appeared to have a slightly lower pathogenic potential following backpassage and thus best meets the combined criteria of safety and efficacy. 相似文献

In situ production of interferon in tissues of chickens exposed as embryos to turkey herpesvirus and Marek's disease virus 总被引：1，自引：0，他引：1

Chicken eggs at embryonation day (ED) 18 or newly hatched chicks were inoculated with turkey herpesvirus (HVT), Marek's disease virus (MDV), or virus-free diluent and, at intervals after inoculation, tissue homogenates of virus-exposed and virus-free chickens or chicken embryos were examined for interferon (IFN) activity. Homogenates of lung, thymus and spleen specimens from chickens given HVT at ED 18 had IFN activity. Activity of IFN in the lungs was studied further. Homogenates of lung specimens from chickens exposed to HVT at hatching also had IFN activity, although the concentration of IFN was lower than that in chickens given HVT at ED 18. The pathogenic isolates of MDV (JM-MDV), but not the attenuated (Md11/75C-MDV) or nonpathogenic (SB1-MDV) isolates, inoculated at ED 18 also induced high lung IFN activity. Exposure to a combination of HVT and SB1-MDV induced IFN activity comparable with that in chickens given HVT alone. The IFN activity in homogenates of lung specimens from virus-exposed chickens was species specific and heat and pH stable, but was destroyed by trypsin treatment. Occasionally, low IFN activity also was detected in homogenates of tissue specimens from virus-free chickens or chicken embryos. This IFN activity could have been produced constitutively or may have been induced by substances (inducers) in the environment. 相似文献

Turkey herpesvirus (HVT) and an attenuated Marek's disease virus (MDV) replicated in organ cultures of chick embryo skin as assessed by immunofluorescence and/or electron microscopy. HVT-specific immunofluorescent antigen was detected in the feather follicle epithelium (FFE) and in the surface layer of the skin epidermis. Electron microscopy of infected explants revealed herpes-type cytopathology. Immature particles of both viruses appeared first in the nucleus. Oval or horseshoe-shaped non-enveloped particles of HVT and enveloped virions of MDV were seen in the cytoplasm of some transitional cells. The difference in the ability of HVT and MDV to form an envelope was believed to account for the difference in their transmissibility in chickens. The results indicated that HVT replicated in the FFE and in the epidermis of the skin. However, attempts to localise the site(s) of MDV replication by electron microscopy were unsuccessful. 相似文献

The objective of our work was to investigate the dynamics of pathological lesions of chicken organs after infection with high doses of turkey herpesvirus THV-BIO-I. This virus strain is commonly used in form of the Marvak vaccine against Marek's disease of poultry in Czechoslovakia. High doses of the vaccine are used in practice with respect to the epizootological situation. The incidence of pathological lesions in the organs of Brown Leghorn chickens was investigated in a five-week experiment. One-day chickens were infected intramuscularly with the HVT strain at the doses of approximately 10(2), 10(3) and 10(4) PFU in 0.2 ml of infective inoculum per chick. The body weights of ten chickens of each group were recorded at intervals of 1, 2, 3 and 5 weeks after infection, serological examination was performed for precipitating antibodies to MDV and the feather was examined for MDV-antigen. Bursae Fabricii and spleens were weighed. Thymus, bursae Fabricii, spleens, peripheral nerves (n. ischiadicus and pl. brachialis) and gonads were sampled for histopathological examination. Neither maternal nor post-infection antibodies were found in any chick. Cytolytic lesion severity of lymphoid organs was scored using the scale of immunosuppression degrees (0-4). Morphological criteria were published in a previous paper (Halouzka and Jurajda, 1991b). The differences observed in the weights of bursa Fabricii and spleen between the infected and control chickens were not statistically significant. The observed lymphoid infiltrations in the skin, gonads, nerves and other tissues following the HVT infection are well-known and correlate with the infection dose.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS) 相似文献
