Iridoviridae are known to cause disease in sturgeons in North America. Here, histological and molecular methods were used to screen for this family of virus in sturgeons from various European farms with low‐to‐high morbidity. Some histological samples revealed basophilic cells in the gill and labial epithelia, strongly suggesting the accumulation of iridovirus particles. Newly developed generic PCR tests targeting the major capsid protein (MCP) gene of sturgeon iridoviruses identified in North America, namely the white sturgeon iridovirus and the Namao virus (NV), produced positive signals in most samples from four sturgeon species: Russian (Acipenser gueldenstaedtii), Siberian (A. baerii), Adriatic (A. naccarii) and beluga (Huso huso). The sequences of the PCR products were generally highly similar one another, with nucleotide identities greater than 98%. They were also related to (74–88%), although distinct from, American sturgeon iridoviruses. These European viruses were thus considered variants of a single new virus, provisionally named Acipenser iridovirus‐European (AcIV‐E). Moreover, three samples infected with AcIV‐E showed genetic heterogeneity, with the co‐existence of two sequences differing by five nucleotides. One of our European samples carried a virus distinct from AcIV‐E, but closely related to NV identified in Canada (95%). This study demonstrates the presence of two distinct sturgeon iridoviruses in Europe: a new genotype AcIV‐E and an NV‐related virus. 相似文献

Turbot aquaculture is a very important industry in China. However, it is hampered because of viral reddish body syndrome (VRBS) and high mortality caused by piscine turbot reddish body iridovirus (TRBIV). TRBIV virus is an icosahedron‐like and cytoplasmic DNA virus, belonging to Iridoviridae, Megalocytivirus. In previous studies, we have identified two antigen mimotopes using bioinformatics and constructed prokaryotic expression vectors. In this study, a fragment of major capsid protein (MCP) gene with the two antigenic epitopes was cloned into eukaryotic expression vector pVAX1, to generate a recombinant plasmid pVAX1‐TRBIV‐MCP. The plasmid DNA was transferred into turbot cell line TK using liposome, and transient expression was detected using RT‐PCR. After injection into turbot (Scophthalmus maximus), the expression of the antigen gene was analysed using RT‐PCR and was shown to express in all tested tissues in vaccinated fish 2 and 7 days post‐vaccination. The cumulative mortalities in the vaccinated and unvaccinated control fish were 30% and 88% respectively. Immune responses and upregulation of the expression of chemokine receptor, tumour necrosis factor, interferon and interferon‐induced antiviral molecules were observed in the vaccinated fish 60 h post‐vaccination. These results demonstrate that the vaccinated turbots had higher survival rate and produced specific serum antibodies following the TRBIV challenge. More studies are needed to develop and apply the promising DNA vaccine for virus control in turbot. 相似文献

Grouper iridovirus (GIV) is one of the most serious pathogens in mariculture and causes high mortality rates in cultured groupers; then, effective medicines for controlling GIV infections are urgently needed. Viola philippica is a well‐known medicinal plant, and the application of V. philippica aqueous extracts against GIV infection was assessed by different methods in this study. The results showed that the working concentration of V. philippica aqueous extracts was 10 mg/ml. V. philippica aqueous extracts below 10 mg/ml have no significant cytotoxic effects on cell viability, while extracts over 15 mg/ml decreased cell viability and showed cytotoxic activity. V. philippica aqueous extracts had excellent inhibitory effects against GIV infection in vitro and in vivo. The possible antiviral mechanism of V. philippica was further analysed, which indicated that V. philippica did no damages to GIV particles, but it could disturb GIV binding, entry and replication in host cells. V. philippica had the best inhibitory effects against GIV during viral infection stage of binding and replication in host cells. Overall, the results suggest that appropriate concentration of V. philippica aqueous extracts has great antiviral effects, making it an interesting candidate for developing effective medicines for preventing and controlling GIV infection in farmed groupers. 相似文献

The establishment and partial characterization of a continuous cell line from the dorsal fin of red sea bream, Pagrus major, are described. The cell line, designated RSBF‐2, has been subcultured for more than 100 passages since its initiation in November 2000. It was optimally maintained at 28 °C in Leibovitz L‐15 medium with 10% foetal bovine serum. Propagation of RSBF‐2 cells was serum dependent and exhibited low plating efficiency (<1.7%). Aside from long‐term cryopreservation, the cells could also be kept at 4 °C for 72 days. The distribution of the chromosome number was 38–98 with a mode of 48. The RSBF‐2 cell line was susceptible to red sea bream iridovirus but only produced a few rounded and refractory cells. Virus‐inoculated RSBF‐2 cells were then subcultured to generate a persistently infected cell line. RSBF‐2 was also very sensitive to the extracellular products of Photobacterium damselae ssp. piscicida and produced significant fluorescent signals after transfection with pEGFP‐C3. Analysis of mitochondrial cytochrome b gene sequences revealed 99% identity between the cell line and Pagrus major. 相似文献

Iridoviruses infect a wide variety of wild and cultured fish. Those iridoviruses belonging to the genus Ranavirus, in the Iridoviridae family, cause systemic disease in infected animals with a high morbidity and mortality. This paper reports the cloning, sequencing, and expression of the rock bream iridovirus (RBIV) major capsid protein (MCP) in an Escherichia coli expression system for subsequent immunological studies. The completeness of the expressed protein was confirmed by peptide mass fingerprinting (PMF) analysis using MALDI-TOF MS. The recombinant MCP (rMCP)-specific mouse polyclonal antibody reacted with the viral 52 kDa protein, indicating that this rMCP induces an immunological response. Fish antibodies induced against iridovirus infection were also detected using ELISA when rMCP was used as an antigen. As a result, it was found that many cultured rock bream (92.5%) were naturally infected with iridovirus and that the rMCP might be useful for serological tests. 相似文献

Megalocytiviruses have been associated globally with severe systemic disease and economic loss in farmed food fish and ornamental fish. The viruses have been spread internationally by translocation of live fish. In New Zealand, megalocytiviruses are regarded as exotic. A potential pathway for introduction has been identified, namely imported ornamental fish. In the present study, real‐time PCR assays were developed for detection of megalocytiviruses using a conserved major capsid protein gene. A SYBR green assay was developed to target all known megalocytiviruses. A second real‐time PCR assay using a molecular beacon was developed to specifically target gourami, Trichogaster trichopterus, iridovirus, a species of iridovirus previously linked to ornamental fish imports in Australia. The analytical sensitivity for the SYBR green and molecular beacon assays were 10 and 100 fg, respectively. The analytical specificity of the real‐time PCR assays determined using genomic DNA templates from three target viruses, 12 non‐target viruses and 25 aquatic bacterial species were 100%. The intra‐run and inter‐run coefficients of variation of both assays were <5%. The real‐time PCR assays developed in this study provide rapid, sensitive, and specific detection of megalocytiviruses and gourami iridovirus. 相似文献

应用同源PCR技术,从被一种球状病毒感染的患病大菱鲆(Scophthalmus maximus)脾脏和肾脏组织中扩增出了一段长度为620bp的DNA片断。序列测定和Blast分析表明,该DNA片断与鱼类虹彩病毒主要衣壳蛋白(MCP)C末端编码区的DNA序列高度相似,由此证实感染养殖大菱鲆的这种球状病毒为一种鱼类虹彩病毒,暂命名为大菱鲆红体病虹彩病毒(TRBIV)。多序列比对和分析发现,TRBIV MCP C末端的205个氨基酸序列与GenBank中20种虹彩病毒相应序列的相似性分别为99.47%(韩国大菱鲆虹彩病毒)、97%~98%(待指定病毒属的7种病毒),以及50%以下(蛙病毒属、淋巴囊肿病毒属、虹彩病毒属的12种病毒),由此绘制出了包含TRBIV在内的21种虹彩病毒的系统发育树。研究结果表明,感染中国养殖大菱鲆的TRBIV属于虹彩病毒科待指定病毒属,位于该属ISKNV亚群和RSIV亚群之间,是该病毒属的一个新成员。 相似文献
