Subgroup-specific peptide-based enzyme-linked immunosorbent assays from the G-protein of the ovine and bovine respiratory syncytial virus (RSV), respectively, were used to determine the prevalence of the ovine and bovine subgroup strains of RSV infections in cattle. A total of 1,102 bovine serum samples were obtained from 6 diagnostic laboratories located in the northwestern and the southeastern USA and were tested for antibody to either the bovine or ovine subgroups of RSV. Antibody to viruses from each subgroup was present in samples from each region and all states tested. The Southeast had a higher prevalence of the bovine subgroup strains (69.5%). Then did the Northwest (40.9%). The prevalence of the ovine strain was similar for the two regions (16.7% in the southeast, 14.9% in the northwest). The overall prevalence was 56.6% for the bovine strain and 15.9% for the ovine strain. These results suggest members of the ovine subgroup of RSV circulate in the cattle population but with less frequency than those viruses of the bovine subgroup. 相似文献

Subgroup-specific peptide-based enzyme immunoassays from each respective G-glycoprotein of the ovine and the bovine respiratory syncytial virus (RSV) were developed to detect RSV-specific IgG responses in cattle. Antigenic peptides from the respective G-glycoprotein were identified from the extracellular central hydrophobic region (amino acids 158-189) located between 2 mucin-rich regions. These antigenic peptides identified by epitope mapping from each G-glycoprotein were synthesized and used to develop the subgroup-specific enzyme immunoassays. The negative cutoff for each enzyme immunoassay was established as the mean optical density of indirect immunofluorescent antibody-negative bovine sera plus 3 SDs. The sensitivity (82.9%) and specificity (100%) of the bovine enzyme immunoassay and the specificity (95.8%) of the ovine enzyme immunoassay were determined by comparison with indirect immunofluorescence (used as the "gold standard"). The negative and positive predictive values were calculated for each assay. The presence of serum antibody to ovine RSV in cattle implies that this virus infects cattle and may contribute to the pathogenesis of bovine respiratory disease. 相似文献

Two different respiratory syncytial virus (RSV) radiolabeled probes were used to characterize the genetic heterogeneity of 25 ruminant RSV isolates by the ribonuclease protection assay. A 32P-radiolabeled antisense RNA probe was transcribed from cloned ovine and bovine RSV G glycoprotein genes and then hybridized with total RNA isolated from infected cells with various ruminant RSV isolates. The results of this study, along with previously published nucleotide sequence data of the ovine RSV G glycoprotein gene, suggest the presence of at least 2 ruminant RSV subgroups. One subgroup is represented by RSV isolated from respiratory disease outbreaks from calves and goats, and the other is represented by RSV isolated from sheep. 相似文献

Nucleotide sequences of 16S rDNA and rpoB gene of 25 bovine and 6 ovine Histophilus somni strains were determined to detect subtle differences between the host animal species. The 1465 nucleotide residues of the 16S rDNA exhibited levels of sequence similarities of 99.4% or more. The high sequence similarity of the 16S rDNA of recently described species H. somni was confirmed in the 31 strains from cattle and sheep. These results suggested that the intra-specific diversity of 16S rDNA was limited in bovine and ovine strains of H. somni. The specific association of strains was also observed in the 311 bp region of rpoB gene which sequence similarities were 98.6% or more. However, the phylogenetic tree analysis of the rpoB gene showed that the ovine strains appeared to form a subgroup recovered in 70% of the bootstrap trees. In the 311 bp region of the ovine strains, a HincII restriction endonuclease site was detected. The PCR-amplified rpoB DNA of 46 bovine and 20 ovine H. somni strains were examined for the digestion with HincII. As the results, 17 strains of ovine strains were cleaved by the enzyme but none of the bovine strains appeared to possess the restriction site. The restriction enzyme analysis of rpoB gene may be useful to differentiate ovine strains from bovine strains of H. somni. 相似文献

Based on the marked antigenic similarities that exist between antigens of the human and bovine strains of respiratory syncytial virus (RSV), an enzyme immunoassay (EIA) designed to detect human RSV was used to detect bovine RSV. The commercial test kit (RSV EIA) consists of a solid phase (beads) coated with a capture antiserum prepared against the Long strain of human RSV. The RSV EIA test was compared with the method of inoculation of cell cultures and fluorescent antibody (FA) staining of lung tissue for the detection of bovine RSV. Using a cell culture-propagated stock of strain 375 of bovine RSV, the threshold of sensitivity of the EIA test for the cattle strain of RSV was determined to be less than or equal to 10(2.3) CCID50/ml. In addition, RSV EIA detected the bovine RSV in nasal samples obtained from 3 experimentally inoculated cattle. The RSV EIA exhibited a sensitivity of greater than or equal to 80% during the period that shedding of infectious virus took place. All of the bovine RSV FA-positive lung samples (n = 37) were positive by the RSV EIA. Twenty-six of the remaining 214 bovine RSV FA-negative lung samples were positive by the RSV EIA. The RSV EIA was also used to test 137 nasal swabs obtained from cases of bovine respiratory disease. Of these, 38 tested positive by RSV EIA. All samples that tested positive by EIA were confirmed by blocking assays using hyperimmune serum anti-bovine RSV and a pool of monoclonal antibodies specific for that virus. 相似文献

Respiratory syncytial virus (RSV) causes severe lower respiratory tract infection in children and calves. Antibodies to ovine RSV (ORSV) are common in sheep, but the clinical disease is not well defined. There is no report of ORSV infection in Australian sheep although respiratory distress syndrome has been described. This discrepancy may be due to the lack of a suitable diagnostic test. In this report, we have characterised the ORSV G protein in an attempt to study its relatedness to human and bovine RSV (HRSV, BRSV) and for use in the development of a suitable diagnostic assay. Full length and a truncated variant of ORSV G protein were expressed in mammalian cells and the expressed proteins characterised by indirect immunofluorescence and radioimmunoprecipitation assays. Our results indicate that like HRSV, the ORSV G protein is heavily glycosylated. The expressed protein was membrane bound as well as secreted and could be purified from culture supernatants and may be suitable for use in development of a diagnostic assay. 相似文献

Inoculation of lambs with an ovine isolate of respiratory syncytial virus (RSV) by a combined intranasal and intratracheal route resulted in mild respiratory tract illness, with respiratory tract lesions. Lung lesions were characterized by bronchitis and bronchiolitis, hyperplasia of bronchial and bronchiolar epithelium, peribronchiolar and perivascular accumulations of lymphocytes, alveolar septal thickening, and collapse. Respiratory syncytial virus was recovered from the respiratory tract of inoculated lambs, and RSV antigen was demonstrated by immunoperoxidase staining of bronchiolar and alveolar epithelial cell in pneumonic lesions of lambs euthanatized on post-inoculation days 5 and 6. Other primary respiratory tract pathogens were not isolated. Clinical signs of respiratory tract illness or respiratory tract lesions did not develop in the in-contact control lamb. Inoculation of the ovine RSV isolate into calves and deer fawns resulted in infection in both species, and at necropsy, pneumonic lesions were present. A mild to moderate respiratory tract illness developed in the calves, but clinical disease was not seen in the fawns. Lung lesions in fawns were similar to those seen in lambs; lesions in calves were characterized by collapse, scattered areas of parenchymal necrosis, and bronchiolitis. Respiratory syncytial virus was reisolated from the lower respiratory tract of inoculated calves and fawns, and immunoperoxidase-positive epithelial cells were seen in pneumonic lesions. Other primary respiratory pathogens were not detected. Respiratory syncytial virus infection was not demonstrable in control animals that were in contact with inoculated animals.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS) 相似文献

Cloning and sequencing of the ovine gamma-interferon gene 总被引：1，自引：0，他引：1
Cytokines are major modulators of the immune system of all animals. The cloning and expression of recombinant cytokine genes have permitted the analysis of their immune function and role in the control of the immune response to disease and vaccination. While human, murine, and bovine genes have been cloned and sequenced, the cloning of ovine cytokine genes has not yet been reported. As sheep are of dominant economic importance to the Australian farming industry, it is of significance to clone and express these genes to facilitate the development of new and better vaccines and pharmaceuticals. We have initially selected ovine gamma-interferon (gamma-IFN) as a target cytokine gene. By the use of the polymerase chain reaction (PCR), using primers based on the bovine gamma-interferon sequence, we have amplified the ovine gamma-interferon gene from crude messenger RNA extracted from lymphocytes. After cloning and DNA sequencing the gene, we found that ovine gamma-IFN is 93% identical to bovine gamma-IFN in amino acid sequence. This result indicates that the PCR method will be a rapid and efficient means for cloning other ovine cytokine genes. 相似文献

A virus isolated from a yearling cross-bred ewe was identified as respiratory syncytial virus (RSV) by indirect immunofluorescence and by virus neutralization with bovine RSV antisera. The virus caused a mild conjunctivitis in 3-month-old lambs when inoculated alone. Although clinical signs of pneumonia were not observed, there was gross and microscopic evidence of pulmonary inflammation in the lungs of lambs inoculated with either the sheep RSV isolate alone or in conjunction with Pasteurella haemolytica. Lung lesions in the dual infection were more severe, with approximately 10% of the total lung mass affected. Lavage fluids from lambs inoculated with virus and bacteria contained approximately 3 times more inflammatory cells than from control lambs or lambs inoculated with virus only. The sheep RSV isolate was classified as a mild respiratory pathogen in lambs of this age. Speculations on the potential importance of this virus in interspecies transmission to cattle and goats were discussed. 相似文献

The present study used an RT-nested-PCR and an immunohistochemistry assay to detect bovine respiratory syncytial virus in tissues from experimentally infected balb/c mice. As a first step, Chicken Embryo Related (CER) cell monolayers infected with the BRSV-25-BR strain isolated in Brazil were used for antigen production. Then, the infected lung and tracheal tissues of female balb/c mice were collected on 3, 5, 7 and 10 days post-infection and submitted to both techniques. Primers specific to F and G genes that amplify fragments of 481 bp and 371 bp, respectively, were used. The BRSV detection was not successful in all of the animals tested. The genomic fragment of the G gene from the organs of some infected mice on all analyzed post-infection days was amplified. However, in the RT-nested-PCR corresponding to the F gene, it was not possible to observe any amplified fragment. This was probably due to the higher sensitivity of the developed technique to amplify the fragment corresponding to the G gene compared to the F gene. Moreover, only three of the lungs collected five days post-infection were positive by immunohistochemistry. To the author's knowledge, this is the first study reporting bovine respiratory syncytial virus detection in balb/c mice after experimental inoculation. 相似文献

The association between serological titers in infectious bovine rhinotracheitis virus, bovine virus diarrhea virus, parainfluenza-3 virus, respiratory syncytial virus and treatment for respiratory disease in Ontario feedlot calves. 总被引：12，自引：7，他引：5 下载免费PDF全文
下载免费PDF全文 A seroepidemiological study of the association between antibody titers to infectious bovine rhinotracheitis, parainfluenza-3, bovine virus diarrhea and bovine respiratory syncytial viruses, and treatment for bovine respiratory disease was conducted. A total of 322 calves from five different groups were bled on arrival, then one month later all cases (cattle treated for bovine respiratory disease) were rebled together with an equal number of controls (cattle not treated for any disease). Titers to these viruses varied significantly from group to group. Based on seroconversion, infectious bovine rhinotracheitis virus was active in 4.4%, bovine virus diarrhea virus in 24%, parainfluenza-3 virus in 69.5% and bovine respiratory syncytial virus in 71.3% of the cattle. Cattle with low titers to infectious bovine rhinotracheitis and/or bovine respiratory syncytial viruses on arrival, were at increased risk of subsequent treatment for bovine respiratory disease. Treated cattle also had significantly greater increases to parainfluenza-3 and/or bovine virus diarrhea viruses than control calves. Treatment rates varied considerably from group to group and were not strongly correlated with weight gain in the postarrival period. 相似文献
