Post-weaning multisystemic wasting syndrome (PMWS) and porcine dermatitis and nephropathy syndrome (PDNS) are two recently described conditions of pigs at the late nursery and fattening stages. The aim of this short communication was to describe the first reported occurrence of these conditions and of porcine circovirus type 2 (PCV2) infection in Greece. The clinical signs, gross post-mortem changes and histopathological changes observed in affected pigs, were similar to those previously described for both PDNS and PMWS. As in previous reports, the lesions were associated with PCV2 infection, which was demonstrated by immunohistochemical and in situ hybridization methods. 相似文献

Porcine circovirus type 2 (PCV2) has been demonstrated to be the causal agent for postweaning multisystemic wasting syndrome (PMWS) and porcine dermatitis and nephropathy syndrome (PDNS). This report describes the first detection of PCV2 and associated diseases in a Romanian swine herd located in Transylvania. The clinical signs, pathological and histopathological changes observed in affected pigs were similar to those previously described for PDNS and PMWS. Polymerase chain reaction and in situ hybridisation were used for the detection of PCV2 nucleic acids from tissues and serum samples. Complete PCV2 genomes of both PMWS and PDNS cases were sequenced and analysed, and by comparing them with each other no genomic differences could be detected. The sequence analysis showed that the Romanian PCV2 was closely related to PCV2 identified in France and in Hungary. 相似文献

Porcine dermatitis and nephropathy syndrome (PDNS) is broadly discussed as a porcine circovirus type 2 (PCV2)-associated disease, although PCV2, in contrast to postweaning multisystemic wasting syndrome (PMWS), has to date not been proven to be the aetiologic agent. In order to better understand the complex immunopathology of PDNS, the systemic cytokine expression profiles of (i) five pigs suffering from PDNS, (ii) five animals suffering from naturally acquired PMWS and (iii) five controls were investigated at mRNA and protein levels by means of multiplex real-time RT-PCR and flow cytometric intracellular cytokine detection, respectively. IL-1alpha, IL-6 and IFN-gamma mRNA expressions were found to be elevated in PDNS pigs. At the protein level, an increased capacity of peripheral blood mononuclear cells to produce IL-2, IL-4, IL-6, IL-12, TNF-alpha and IFN-gamma was evident. Hematological investigations revealed a hypochromic anemia while basophils and monocytes were relatively and neutrophils absolutely increased in PDNS pigs. PCV2 antibody levels did not differ significantly between PDNS and PMWS affected animals. Taken results together, the cytokine profile of the PDNS affected animals together with hematological data pointed towards a proinflammatory condition supporting a Th1 bias. Cytokine data of PMWS affected animals exhibited only minor non-significant differences when compared to controls, only IL-10 was significantly decreased at the mRNA level. 相似文献

Porcine circovirus type 2 (PCV2) from the Circoviridae family has recently been associated with two serious diseases of swine, post-weaning multisystemic wasting syndrome (PMWS) and porcine dermatitis and nephropathy syndrome (PDNS). During 2002, several outbreaks of clinical disease in pigs with weights ranging from 10 to 70 kg occurred on four farms in different locations in Croatia. The signs were consistent with PMWS and PDNS. Apart from progressive weight loss, pneumonia and/or diarrhoea, multifocal erythematous skin lesions and dermal necrosis were also observed. The PCR results obtained from PCV2 specific oligonucleotide primers confirmed a PCV2 infection. In addition, archive samples that were classical swine fever virus positive and derived from domestic pigs during an outbreak in 1997 were included in this study and one out of the three isolates was found to be positive for PCV2. For a better epizootiological understanding, genetic typing of representative isolates was carried out and compared with available isolates reported in the GenBank databases. 相似文献

Clinical expression of porcine circovirus 2 (PCV2) infection in swine may result in several distinct syndromes and diseases including post-weaning multisystemic wasting syndrome (PMWS), porcine dermatitis and nephropathy syndrome (PDNS), reproductive failure, porcine respiratory disease complex, granulomatous enteritis, necrotizing lymphadenitis, and possibly exudative epidermitis. Association of PCV2 with congenital tremor in piglets is still controversial. The extent of the involvement of PCV2 in swine disease other than PMWS is currently poorly understood. This review concentrates on PCV-2-associated syndromes and diseases other than PMWS. 相似文献

In this study, 60 pigs with clinical signs of post-weaning multisystemic wasting syndrome (PMWS) from 20 different pig herds and 180 control pigs (without clinical signs of PMWS) were examined to get more insights into the frequencies of porcine circovirus 2 infections and the presence of co-infections in pigs with and without clinical signs of PMWS in the Netherlands. Porcine circovirus type 2 was detected in 100% of the pigs with clinical signs of PMWS by virus isolation and/or PCR and in 50% of the pigs from PMWS-free herds. There was an association between the levels of infectious PCV2 and/or PCV2 DNA load and the severity of clinical signs as described for PMWS. A high variation in PCV2 antibody titres was found in the clinically affected pigs, and 27% of these pigs did not mount PCV2 antibody titres higher than 1:200. A concurrent infection of PCV2 and porcine reproductive and respiratory syndrome virus (PRRSV) was found in at least 83% of the pigs with clinical signs of PMWS and in 35% of the pigs from PMWS-free herds. Co-infections of European- and American-type PRRSV were detected only in PMWS herds and in one control herd with a history of PMWS clinical signs. 相似文献

OBJECTIVE: To determine if postweaning multisystemic wasting syndrome (PMWS) is occurring in the New South Wales pig population and to determine the current and past seroprevalence of porcine circovirus 2 (PCV2). DESIGN: Pig veterinarians were contacted seeking submission of tissues from animals with clinical signs suggestive of PMWS. Samples were also accepted from suspected cases of porcine dermatitis and nephropathy syndrome (PDNS). Serological studies were also undertaken on archival sera and sera submitted during the study. PROCEDURE: Histopathological examination was undertaken on all tissues submitted. The presence of PCV2 was determined by immunohistochemistry. Sera were tested for PCV2 using a commercial enzyme linked immunosorbent assay kit modified for testing of serum samples. RESULTS: No cases of PMWS were identified during the study. Four cases of PDNS were identified. PCV2 antibody was detected in 80% of archival sera from 1995 and 75.8% from 2001. Seroprevalence in samples tested during 2002-2003 was 87.8%. PCV2 was isolated from tissues of a case of PDNS. CONCLUSION: PCV2 is widespread in the New South Wales pig population and has been since at least 1995. This study describes the first isolation of an Australian PCV2. No cases of PMWS were identified in New South Wales. 相似文献

Porcine circovirus type 2 (PCV2), an economically important pathogen of swine, is the necessary cause of post weaning multisystemic wasting disease (PMWS); PCV2 infection is associated with porcine dermatitis and nephritis syndrome (PDNS). Current immunohistochemical (IHC) methodologies identify PCV2 antigens but are not capable of differentiating replicating virus from nonreplicating virion particles in tissue sections. In this paper, a combination of IHC using commercial monoclonal antibodies specific for single stranded (ss) and double stranded (ds) DNA and PCV2 specific in situ hybridization (ISH) was used to show the specificity of the former for PCV2 DNA in tissue sections from PCV2-infected gnotobiotic pigs. Cold-ethanol-fixed tissue sections were superior to formalin-fixed tissues for detection of PCV2 DNA, presumably due to the lack of protein cross-linking in the latter. These data demonstrate that conventional IHC detects PCV2 DNA forms in experimentally infected PCV2-positive gnotobiotic porcine tissue sections that are minimally compromised by either formalin fixation or the hybridization conditions needed for ISH. 相似文献

规模化猪场猪圆环病毒2型的血清流行病学调查 总被引：2，自引：0，他引：2
为了解规模化猪场猪圆环病毒2型(PCV2)血清学流行情况,采用ELISA进行PCV2抗体检测。结果表明,运城地区规模化猪场广泛存在PCV2感染,未免疫接种猪圆环病毒疫苗的外观健康猪血清样品中PCV2抗体平均阳性率为49.66%,其中种猪感染率达67%,哺乳仔猪感染率4.55%,保育猪感染率43%,育肥猪感染率64.71%;外观健康猪群检测结果提示,随着年龄的增长PCV2感染有升高趋势。为了进一步研究猪圆环病毒感染各症候群在规模化场发病特点及流行规律,采集临床疑似断奶仔猪多系统衰竭综合征(PMWS)、仔猪先天性震颤(Congenital tremors,CT)、猪肾炎皮炎综合征(PDNS)、猪的繁殖障碍(Reproductive failure)、PCV2相关性肺炎等症状猪血清400份进行PCV2抗体检测。检测结果显示,疑似PMWS症状PCV2抗体阳性率最高,达86.25%,然后依次是疑似PCV2相关性肺炎阳性率56.25%,疑似PDNS阳性率46.25%,疑似繁殖障碍阳性率26.25%,最低的是疑似CT阳性率11.25%。研究结果表明,运城地区规模化猪场PCV2感染以PMWS和PCV2相关性肺炎为主,其次是PDNS和繁殖障碍,仔猪先天性震颤感染率最低。 相似文献

猪圆环病毒免疫学研究进展 总被引：1，自引：0，他引：1
猪圆环病毒(PCV)在世界范围内广泛存在,可引起断奶仔猪多系统衰竭综合征(PMWS)、猪皮炎-肾病综合征(PDNS)和猪呼吸系统疾病症候群,给养猪业造成重大经济损失.已有研究表明,PCV-2感染和免疫刺激作用在PMWS发生中起关键作用,母源抗体对PMWS发生有被动保护作用,通过对初产母猪和经产母猪进行PCV-2免疫,增加母源性免疫和降低病毒血症的措施可以减少PMWS对仔猪死亡的影响.PCV-2疫苗现在已经在商业上应用,疫苗对PCV-2复制和PCVD的诱导增强作用似乎依赖于疫苗佐剂的类型和疫苗的接种时间.因此,基于有效的试验,在发生过PMWS感染的猪群,应该根据PCV-2感染的时间有目的地制定免疫接种方案,以控制或者减少PMWS的发生. 相似文献

Summary Pigs with wasting syndrome were examined for macroscopic and histopathological lesions, and for porcine circovirus (PCV). Histopathological lesions were comparable to those previously documented for post‐weaning multisystemic wasting syndrome (PMWS). In addition, in seven out of ten examined PMWS‐affected pigs focal‐to‐slight mononuclear meningitis and focal cerebral mononuclear infiltrates (4 out of 10) were observed. A virus was isolated from organs and sera from pigs showing wasting syndrome. An immunoperoxidase monolayer assay and an indirect immunofluorescence assay were performed on the infected PK‐15 and Dulac cell cultures, respectively, and both assays indicated the presence of PCV type 2 (PCV2). The nested‐polymerase chain reaction (nPCR) technique, based on the use of PCV2 specific oligonucleotides, revealed specific amplified products of 481 bp. Nucleotide sequence analysis of the entire genome of the Dutch PCV isolate 24657 NL showed a homology with known nucleotide sequences of porcine PCV type 1 (PCV1) and PCV2 isolates of 77.1% and >96%, respectively. This is the first report of the isolation and characterization of PCV2 in PMWS‐affected pigs in the Netherlands. 相似文献

Postweaning multisystemic wasting syndrome (PMWS) was reproduced in prenatally porcine circovirus 2 (PCV2)-infected pigs by either postnatal infection with porcine parvovirus (PPV) or by immunostimulation. Twenty-four randomly selected piglets from 3 sows, which had been experimentally infected during gestation with PCV2, were randomly divided into 3 groups; group 1 (prenatal PCV2 infection, with postnatal PPV infection), group 2 (prenatal PCV2 infection, with postnatal keyhole limpet hemocyanin, emulsified in incomplete Freund's adjuvant [KLH/ICFA] injection), and group 3 (prenatal PCV2 infection only). Twenty-four randomly selected piglets from 3 uninfected sows were randomly divided into 3 groups; group 4 (no prenatal infection, with postnatal PCV2 and PPV infection), group 5 (no prenatal infection, with postnatal PCV2 infection), and group 6 (negative control pigs). Body weight in negative control pigs (group 6) was increased significantly compared with pigs in groups 1, 2, and 4 at 49, 52, 56, 59, and 63 days of age. The granulomatous inflammatory reaction and lymphoid depletion that are typical lesions in pigs with PMWS were observed in the lymph node of piglets in groups 1, 2, and 4 at 63 days of age. Pigs in group 3 had significantly fewer PCV2-positive cells than those from groups 1, 2, 4, or 5. When the prenatally PCV2-infected pigs were infected with PPV or injected with immunostimulant in the postnatal period, they developed PMWS. Thus, factors that potentiate the progression of prenatal PCV2 infection to PMWS are postnatal infection with PPV or immune stimulation. 相似文献

The clinical expression and emergence of porcine circovirus 2 总被引：12，自引：0，他引：12
Harding JC 《Veterinary microbiology》2004,98(2):131-135
Since its discovery and characterization in western Canada in 1995, the distribution of post-weaning multisystemic wasting syndrome (PMWS) has grown and the syndrome is undoubtedly recognized worldwide. More recently, there is a heightened interest in several potentially related conditions including porcine dermatitis and nephropathy syndrome (PDNS), proliferative and necrotizing pneumonia (PNP), congenital tremors (CT-AII), perinatal myocarditis and reproductive failure. Although the causality of porcine circovirus type 2 (PCV2) has recently been proven [Vet. Pathol. 37 (2000) 254; J. Comp. Pathol. 122 (2000) 9; J. Vet. Diagn. Invest. 13 (2001) 185], PCV2 is present in both diseased and healthy pig populations. Furthermore, recent serologic studies have shown that there are no significant differences in PCV2 specific IgG titres between PMWS clinical and non-clinical herds (Harding et al., in press). Clearly, the transmission, epidemiology, and factors triggering clinical expression are poorly understood. With these uncertainties in mind, the objective of this paper is to review the clinical expression and emergence of PMWS and the potentially associated disease syndromes including PDNS. 相似文献

Postweaning multisystemic wasting syndrome (PMWS) is an emerging disease in swine. Recently, the disease has been reproduced with inocula containing a newly described porcine circovirus (PCV), designated PCV 2, and porcine parvovirus (PPV). In order to determine if these viruses interact in naturally acquired PMWS, affected tissues from field cases were examined by immunohistochemistry (IHC) and polymerase chain reaction (PCR) for PCV 2 and PPV, as well as by PCR for the other recognized porcine circovirus, PCV 1. Porcine circovirus 2 was detected by PCR or IHC in affected fixed or frozen tissues from 69 of 69 cases of PMWS collected over 3 years from 25 farms. Porcine parvovirus was detected in 12 of the same cases, and PCV 1 was detected in 9 of 69; however, an apparent decrease was found in the sensitivity of the PCRs used to detect the latter 2 viruses when fixed tissue from the same cases were compared with the use of frozen tissues. Porcine circovirus 2 was not detected by PCR in affected tissues from 16 age-matched pigs that had Streptococcus suis-associated disease. Electron microscopic examination of plasma pooled from 15 pigs with PMWS revealed the presence of PCV and PPV, whereas these viruses were not observed in pooled plasma from 5 age-matched clinically normal pigs. These results confirm and extend previous findings documenting a consistent association of PCV 2 with PMWS. As well, infection by PPV or PCV 1 or both may be an important cofactor in the pathogenesis of some, but apparently not all, cases of PMWS. 相似文献

In a case-control study, the role of porcine circovirus 2 (PCV2) and putative co-factors in the development of porcine dermatitis and nephropathy syndrome (PDNS) were investigated. Pigs with and without PDNS were examined for macroscopic lesions and histopathology. In addition, organs and tissues were collected at necropsy and examined for the presence of fibrinous deposits (immune complexes), CD8+ cells, and for the presence of bacterial and viral infections. Results from PDNS cases were compared with those of three control groups comprising pigs without clinical signs of PDNS and selected from; (1) the same compartment as PDNS cases, (2) another compartment but in the same PDNS herd, and (3) a control herd without any history of PDNS or post-weaning multisystemic wasting syndrome. Macroscopic and histopathological lesions found in PDNS cases were comparable to those previously documented for PDNS e.g. skin lesions and renal lesions representing glomerulonephritis associated with fibrinous deposits and to a lesser extent with interstitial nephritis. PCV2 was detected by PCR in 100% of the PDNS cases, mainly in lymph nodes and tonsils, and in 63% of the control pigs from PDNS free herds. Virus isolation did not reveal infectious PCV2 in all cases. In PDNS affected pigs the PCV2 serum antibody titres were consistently extremely high and the mean PCV2 antibody titre in PDNS pigs was significantly higher than the mean PCV2 antibody titres in pigs from all 3 control groups. Immunohistochemical investigation of kidneys from PDNS affected pigs revealed an increased accumulation of IgG1 + IgG2 and IgM, the complement factors C1q and C3, but also an increase of CD8+ cells. The amounts of IgA and the complement factor C5 in kidneys of PDNS pigs were only slightly increased as compared to control pigs. This study demonstrates that PCV2 infections can result in extremely high PCV2 antibody titres and that PCV2 is a candidate as primary agent in the development of PDNS. The causative physiological basis for PDNS may be the excessive levels of PCV2 antibodies. 相似文献

Porcine circovirus type 2 (PCV2) is a member of the family Circoviridae, a recently established virus family composed of small, non-enveloped viruses, with a circular, single-stranded DNA genome. PCV2, which is found all over the world in the domestic pig and probably the wild boar, has been recently associated with a number of disease syndromes, which have been collectively named porcine circovirus diseases (PCVD). Postweaning multisystemic wasting syndrome (PMWS), porcine dermatitis and nephropathy syndrome (PDNS) and reproductive disorders are the most relevant ones. Among them, only PMWS is considered to have a severe impact on domestic swine production. PMWS mainly affects nursery and/or fattening pigs; wasting is considered the most representative clinical sign in this disease. Diagnosis of this disease is confirmed by histopathological examination of lymphoid tissues and detection of a moderate to high amount of PCV2 in damaged tissues. Since PMWS is considered a multifactorial disease in which other factors in addition to PCV2 are needed in most cases to trigger the clinical disease, effective control measures have focused on the understanding of the co-factors involved in individual farms and the control or elimination of these triggers. PDNS, an immuno-complex disease characterized by fibrino-necrotizing glomerulonephritis and systemic necrotizing vasculitis, has been linked to PCV2, but a definitive proof of this association is still lacking. PCV2-associated reproductive disease seems to occur very sporadically under field conditions, but it has been characterized by late-term abortions and stillbirths, extensive fibrosing and/or necrotizing myocarditis in fetuses and the presence of moderate to high amounts of PCV2 in these lesions. Taking into account that scientific information on PCV2 and its associated diseases has been markedly expanded in the last 8 years, the objective of this review is to summarize the current state of knowledge of the most relevant aspects of PCV2 biology and PCVD. 相似文献

The objectives of this study were to determine if coinfection of segregated early weaned (SEW) pigs with porcine circovirus type 2 (PCV2) and porcine parvovirus (PPV) induces an increase in the incidence of post-weaning multisystemic wasting syndrome (PMWS) compared to singular PCV2 infection, and to determine if vaccination against PPV protects pigs against PMWS associated with PCV2/PPV coinfection in SEW pigs. Seventy, 3-week-old, SEW pigs were randomly assigned to one of the five groups. Pigs in group 1 (n = 14) served as the negative controls, group 2 pigs (n = 14) were inoculated with PCV2, group 3 pigs (n = 12) were inoculated with PPV, groups 4 (n = 16) and 5 (n = 14) pigs were inoculated with both PCV2 and PPV. Pigs in groups 1-3 and 5 were vaccinated with two doses of a killed parvovirus-leptospira-erysipelothrix (PLE) vaccine prior to inoculation. The PCV2/PPV-coinfected pigs (groups 4 and 5) had significantly (P < 0.05) higher and more persistent fevers than the singular PCV2-infected pigs. One pig in each of the coinfected groups developed clinical disease (fever, respiratory disease, jaundice, weight loss) consistent with PMWS. Lymphoid depletion was significantly (P < 0.05) more severe in the dually-infected pigs at 42 days post-inoculation (DPI). Vaccinated, coinfected pigs (group 5) remained viremic significantly (P < 0.05) longer and had higher copy numbers of genomic PCV2 DNA in sera at 28, 35, and 42 DPI compared to the unvaccinated coinfected pigs (group 4). PPV-viremia was detected only in the unvaccinated group 4 pigs. PLE-vaccination prevented PPV-viremia but did not prevent clinical PMWS or reduce the severity of lymphoid depletion in PCV2/PPV-coinfected pigs. Evidence of increased incidence of clinical PMWS due to vaccination was not observed in this model. 相似文献
