Pairs of heifers were inoculated IV with infectious bovine rhinotracheitis virus on postbreeding days (PBD) 7, 14, 21, or 28, and were euthanatized 13 to 15 days after inoculation. Reproductive tracts were examined for cytopathologic changes (light microscopy), virus (cell culture), and viral antigen (immunohistochemical evaluation). Heifers inoculated on PBD 7 or 14 had mild oophoritis characterized by foci of necrosis and mononuclear cell accumulations in the corpus luteum. Most of these heifers also had a few necrotic follicles in at least one ovary. Heifers inoculated on PBD 21 or 28 did not have corpus luteum lesions, but necrotic follicles were numerous in both ovaries. Viral antigen was observed in all ovarian lesions, and infectious virus was isolated from a few of the affected tissues. The uteri of all heifers inoculated on PBD 21 or 28 and 1 heifer inoculated on PBD 7 contained normal-appearing concepti. The uterus of the other PBD 7 heifer contained a degenerating conceptus that was infected with infectious bovine rhinotracheitis virus, as determined by viral isolation, immunohistochemical evaluation, and electron microscopy. Heifers inoculated on PBD 14 were not pregnant at necropsy, but histologic evidence was found that the postbreeding estrous cycle had been longer than normal, indicating that early embryonic death had occurred.  相似文献

Disease outbreaks characterized by reproductive failure and/or neurologic disorders, which are commonly referred as "Porcine Reproductive and Neurologic Syndrome (PRNS)", were observed in many swine farms in Iowa and other states. Although an infectious cause was suspected to account for the disease, no conclusive diagnosis had been reached with respect to conventional infectious agents. Extensive laboratory diagnostic investigation on suspect cases repeatedly resulted in the isolation of a cytopathic enveloped virus of 50-60nm in size from nervous and second lymphoid tissues and sera and, to reflect its unknown identity, named "Virus X". The presence of virus particle with morphological characteristics similar to Virus X in tissues from affected animals was also observed on thin-section positive-staining electron microscopy. Isolates of Virus X were not readily recognized by antibodies raised against any known viruses pathogenic to swine but by antisera collected from animals surviving clinical episode, indicating that Virus X is likely a previously unrecognized agent. Pregnant sows experimentally inoculated with Virus X (ISUYP604671) or homogenate (filtrate) of tissues from a clinically affected animal developed clinical signs and pathological changes similar to field observations including the loss of pregnancy. Furthermore, caesarian-derived, colostrum-deprived young pigs developed mild encephalomyelitis lesions in brains after experimental inoculation with the virus or the tissue homogenate although clinical neurologic signs were not observed. More importantly, Virus X was re-isolated from all inoculated animals while control pigs remained negative for the virus during the study. Collectively, Virus X is a novel viral agent responsible for PRNS and remains to be further characterized for taxonomical identity.  相似文献

Nine pregnant heifers were inoculated intravenously with infectious bovine rhinotracheitis virus (IBRV) in the sixth month of pregnancy. Tissues were collected from the fetus of a heifer killed 13 days postinoculation (PI), from fetuses of 6 heifers that aborted 16-27 days PI, and from mummified fetuses of 2 heifers that aborted 53 and 85 days PI, respectively. Control tissues were obtained from the fetus of a non-inoculated heifer that was killed in the seventh month of gestation. Tissues were fixed in 10% formalin, embedded in paraffin, and examined for viral antigen by immunohistochemistry, using biotinylated second antibody and alkaline phosphatase-labeled avidin-biotin complex. Antigen was detected in at least 1 tissue from the fetus of each inoculated heifer. Positive tissues included lung, liver, spleen, kidney, adrenal, and placenta. In several fetuses, antigen was identified in tissues from which virus was not isolated in cell culture. This appeared to occur when tissues had only a few small foci of infection or when tissues were severely autolyzed. The observation of viral antigen in tissues from mummified fetuses indicates that this technique may be useful in diagnostic laboratories to detect IBRV infection in tissues that are not suitable for virus isolation or for examination by the cryostat tissue section-fluorescent antibody technique.  相似文献

Three experimental approaches were used to study transmission of blue tongue (BT), infectious bovine rhinotracheitis (IBR) and bovine virus diarrhoea (BVD) viruses. These were insemination with contaminated semen, experimental infection of embryo donor cows, or transfer of embryos experimentally exposed to virus in vitro to normal recipients. Parameters assessed included number and quality of embryos produced, virus detection (isolation and electron microscopy), serology and histopathology. All superovulated sesceptible cows inseminated with semen containing blue tongue virus (BTV) (n = 2) or infectious bovine rhinotracheitis virus (IBRV) (n = 2) became infected. One cow inseminated with semen containing BTV produced seven virus-free seven-day-old embryos; the second cow failed to produce any embryos. One of two cows inseminated with semen containing IBRV produced two underdeveloped, virus-free embryos while no embryos were produced by the second cow. One of two cows inseminated with semen containing bovine viral diarrhoea virus (BVDV) became infected. Two poorly developed, virus-free seven-day-old embryos were recovered from one of these cows. Superovulated susceptible cows inoculated either intramuscularly with BTV (n = 3) or intranasally with IBR virus (n = 2) became infected. Virus was isolated from some tissues of two BTV-infected cows, neither of which produced embryos. A third BTV-infected cow produced two virus-free embryos collected at necropsy five days after inoculation. One of two cows experimentally infected with IBR virus, produced three embryos but virus was not detected either by electron microscopy (1 embryo) or in cell culture by cytopathic alterations (1 embryo).(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 400 WORDS)  相似文献

Six, one-week-old gnotobiotic piglets were inoculated with tissues or sera collected from field cases of porcine reproductive and respiratory syndrome. The piglets showed little or no illness, and two that were necropsied at 8 and 9 days post infection appeared grossly normal. However, a Lelystad virus-like agent was isolated from most of the inoculated pigs using porcine alveolar macrophage cultures. Seroconversion to the Lelystad virus was observed and some animals developed microscopically detectable interstitial pneumonias. Scanning electron microscopy was used to study the in vitro cytopathic effect of the Lelystad virus on porcine alveolar macrophages.  相似文献

The cytopathology and length of latency in single-step growth curves of two isolates of stomatitis papulosa virus are compared in this report. Isolate 721 was obtained from a calf with oral ulcers and isolate 8665 was obtained from a calf with respiratory disease and oral ulcers. In single-step growth curves, the latency period of isolate 721 was 8 h while that of isolate 8665 was 6 h. The cytopathic effect produced by isolate 721 in bovine lung cells was characterized by enlargement of the cell, cell-to-cell adherence and large intracytoplasmic accumulations of viral inclusion material. Isolate 8665 caused rapid cell degeneration and detachment, with small accumulation of viral inclusion material. Neither of the two strains grew in bovine alveolar macrophage cultures or in the respiratory epithelium of fetal bovine tracheal explants. Intragingival inoculation of these isolates in cattle resulted in oral lesions without clinical signs of respiratory of systemic involvement. Virus was recovered from the oral lesions and from nasal secretions for as long as 10 days. Inoculation of dexamethasone-treated cattle resulted in a similar clinical condition although virus was recovered for 20 days from oral lesions and nasal secretions. Seroconversions from negative to 1 : 2560 were detected in inoculated cattle by indirect immunofluorescence.  相似文献

Investigations were made to identify the causal agent of an acute outbreak of abortions in a domesticated herd of wild boar. Only porcine parvovirus (PPV) was isolated from samples of organs from the still-born sucklings and mummified aborted fetuses. The isolated virus hemagglutinated erythrocytes of guinea pig, murine, rat, and chicken. Identity of the virus, designated the BQ strain, was confirmed by the production of a specific cytopathic effect on susceptible cells and by the results from ELISA, PCR, immunofluorescence assay, and electron microscopy. PPV BQ strain was adapted to growth in a swine testicular cell line. When inoculated into healthy sows, PPV BQ caused the same reproductive disorder observed in the affected herd.  相似文献

OBJECTIVE: To determine whether monocyte-derived macrophages from Mouflon-domestic sheep hybrids (Ovis musimon X Ovis spp) were susceptible to productive infection with caprine arthritis-encephalitis virus (CAEV) in vitro and whether experimental inoculation of Mouflon-domestic sheep hybrids with a molecularly cloned CAEV would result in persistent infection. ANIMALS: 5 Mouflon hybrids. PROCEDURE: Macrophage monolayers were inoculated with virus in vitro. Three animals were inoculated with virus intratracheally. RESULTS: Productive replication of CAEV was demonstrated in monocyte-derived macrophages following in vitro and in vivo inoculation. Titer of infectious cytopathic CAEV produced by macrophages from the Mouflon hybrids was similar to titers produced by macrophages from an infected goat or by synovial membrane cells. Isolation of virus from monocyte-derived macrophages and use of a semiquantitative polymerase chain reaction assay to amplify a portion of the viral genome demonstrated persistent virus replication in all 3 inoculated animals. Two weeks after inoculation of sheep, approximately 1 of 5,000 monocytes was harboring the virus. CONCLUSIONS AND CLINICAL RELEVANCE: Results indicate that Mouflon-domestic sheep hybrids are susceptible to infection with isolates of CAEV that cause infection in domestic small ruminants.  相似文献

The successful propagation of porcine cytomegalic inclusion disease virus (inclusion-body rhinitis virus) in primary pig lung cell cultures is reported. CID virus was carried through five passages in cell cultures with cytopathic affects appearing from 11 to 18 days post-inoculation. Four pigs inoculated with infected cell culture fluids from the second cell culture passage remained clinically normal. Two, however, had typical inclusion bodies in the glands of the nasal mucosa when examined three weeks post-inoculation. The progressive cytopathic effect produced and the inclusion bodies formed by this strain of porcine CIDV are described. These inclusion bodies appeared to be similar to those formed by cell culture-propagated cytomegaloviruses of man, mouse and guinea pig.  相似文献

Seven of nine avian virus families tested (Birnaviridae, Coronaviridae, Herpesviridae, Paramyxoviridae, Poxviridae, Reoviridae, and Retroviridae) were found to replicate in a quail fibroblast cell line, designated QT35, resulting in a cytopathic effect (CPE) visible with the naked eye or by low-power microscopy. In comparison, only one (Paramyxoviridae) of seven mammalian virus families tested produced an observable CPE. Cytopathic changes induced by examined viruses were round cell, syncytial, and focus formation. Trypsin did not promote cytopathic changes by selected CPE-negative avian and mammalian viruses in QT35 cells. Several avian viruses (infectious bursal disease virus, Newcastle disease virus, Canary pox virus, and reovirus) formed plaques under agar. Avian reovirus and infectious bursal disease virus produced similar titers in chicken embryo fibroblast (CEF) and QT35 cell cultures. Chicken-egg-yolk neutralizing-antibody titers to IBDV were comparable in CEF and QT35 cell-culture systems.  相似文献

A virus (151) isolated from synovial membrane explant cultures from a goat with arthritis-synovitis was characterised with respect to cytopathic effect in synovial membrane cell cultures, virus morphology, buoyant density and presence of RNA dependent DNA polymerase. Virus 151 was shown to be a retrovirus with similar properties to caprine arthritis-encephalitis virus in the United States of America. Inoculation of the virus into uninfected goats caused the development of arthritis-synovitis lesions and the virus was recovered from affected joints and lung 361 days post-inoculation. The development of antibody to virus 151 was detected using an enzyme linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA). Other goats with arthritis-synovitis, progressive pneumonia or viral leukoencephalomyelitis all had antibody that reacted in this ELISA. Viruses similar to virus 151 were recovered from a number of cases. Goats inoculated with one of the viruses produced serum antibody that cross-reacted in ELISA using maedi-visna virus and virus 151 as antigens.  相似文献

During 2001, a mild infectious laryngotracheitis virus (ILTV) infection occurred in broiler flocks in the southeastern United States. Clinical signs included mild tracheitis, swollen sinuses, and conjunctivitis, with no increased mortality and minimal serologic response. Infrequent intranuclear inclusion bodies with or without syncytial cell formation were observed in eyelid, trachea, and larynx and in the chorioallantoic membrane of infected embryos. Immunohistochemistry and a nested infectious laryngotracheitis polymerase chain reaction (ILT PCR) were utilized to confirm the presence of ILTV nucleic acid in fixed tissues. In addition, 2-wk-old specific-pathogen-free (SPF) birds inoculated with field material exhibited the mild signs observed in broilers in the field. Tracheal swabs and tissues taken from these SPF birds were also positive by nested ILT PCR. Restriction fragment length polymorphism analysis of ILT PCR products indicated that ILT virus associated with mild respiratory disease in the southeast is related to the chicken embryo origin vaccine type strains.  相似文献

A herpesvirus was isolated from buffy coat cells from a newborn wildebeest (Connochaetes gnou) and from tissues of a 12-day-old wildebeest during the 1982 calving season of a captive, inbred herd maintained in a zoologic collection. Both wildebeests were clinically healthy, and there was no herd record that malignant catarrhal fever (MCF) existed. Each viral isolate produced cytopathologic changes in bovine kidney cell cultures (intranuclear inclusions and massive syncytia). The viral-infected cell cultures contained antigens of MCF virus detected by immunofluorescence. The morphology of each viral isolate as determined by electron microscopy was that of a herpesvirus. Suspensions of 4 to 5 ml of disrupted cell culture material which contained virus from each wildebeest were inoculated (IV) into white-tailed deer (Odocoileus virginianus). Each deer became clinically ill within 28 days. Both deer had mucoid catarrh and a febrile response (40.5 to 41 C). Each also seroconverted to MCF virus. The histopathologic change in the tissues from the 2 inoculated deer was vasculitis. At 16 to 17 days after the deer were inoculated, a syncytial-forming virus was isolated from each deer from buffy coat cells fused with polyethylene glycol (1000) to bovine fetal kidney cells. The virus was identified as MCF virus by immunofluorescence and production of antibody to MCF virus. The presence of virus in the inbred wildebeest herd established this species as a reservoir or latent carrier of African MCF virus at the zoologic park.  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

A condition in Australian sheep resembling border disease was transmitted by the inoculation of pregnant ewes with material from affected lambs. This material contained mucosal disease virus (MDV). Twenty-two lambs comprising 6 from uninoculated control ewes, together with 11 with hairy coats and 5 with normal coats from inoculated ewes, were observed from 7 to 182 days after birth. Nine of the lambs from inoculated ewes died during the experiment from a variety of causes. Glial cell abnormalities were observed in control and affected lambs, but only 4 of the 11 hairy lambs were judged to have abnormal glial cells. There were no consistent histopathological findings indicative of MDV infection. MDV was recovered from tissues of all 11 hairy lambs, but not from any of the lambs with normal coats. The hairy lambs appeared to be immunologically tolerant to the virus. Susceptible sheep in contact with the hairy lambs were infected with MDV. It is suggested that a condition in Australian lambs characterised by hairiness of the birth coat and poor viability is due to foetal infection with a mucosal disease virus.  相似文献
