Abstract
Background and Aim No study has successfully isolated parvovirus in Vietnam. This study aimed to isolate and characterize parvovirus strains indigenous in Vietnam for vaccine development against porcine parvovirus (PPV). Materials and Methods We collected serum and stillbirth samples from six provinces in Vietnam, and PPV-positive samples were identified using a polymerase chain reaction. Parvovirus isolation was attempted using the PK-15 cells maintained in a minimum essential medium supplemented with 5% fetal bovine serum and 1% antibiotics (Penicillin-streptomycin). The cells were incubated at 37°C with 5% CO2. Virulence experiments were conducted on white primiparous sows to evaluate the virulence of the PPV strain through hemagglutination inhibition (HI) titers and fetus lesions. Results We analyzed 360 serum and 32 stillbirth (liver and lungs) samples, revealing that 32/392 (8.2% ) of them were PPV-positive, all belonging to PPV1. Thirty-two PPV-positive samples were successfully isolated, with 100% identity as VP2 sequences. The phylogenetic tree revealed a close relationship with the Kresse strain (isolated from Canada in 1996) and the PPV1-0225-L-SD strain (isolated from China in 2022). Two PPV isolates (VC5 from Dongnai and TX7 from Thanhhoa) that exhibited high 50% tissue culture infectious dose titers were selected for the virulence experiment. On day 21, after injection, the HI antibody titers ranged from 10log2 to 12log2. On day 90, 71%-80% of fetuses were mummified. Conclusion This study showed that the PPV infection rate in Vietnam was 8.2%. Thirty-two isolates belonged to PPV1. Two PPV strains, VC5 and TX7, were determined to be highly virulent by the results of HI titers after injection into gilts. VC5 and TX7 were determined to be good candidates for further research on PPV vaccines.

Abstract
This study aimed to investigate the prevalence of viral agents causing reproductive failure in pigs in Korea. In addition, two types of multiplex real-time PCR (mqPCR) were developed for the simultaneous detection of Aujeszky's disease virus (ADV) and porcine parvovirus (PPV) in mqPCR and encephalomyocarditis virus (EMCV) and Japanese encephalitis virus (JEV) in reverse transcription mqPCR (mRT-qPCR). A total of 150 aborted fetus samples collected from 2020 to 2022 were analyzed. Porcine reproductive and respiratory syndrome virus was the most prevalent (49/150 32.7%), followed by porcine circovirus type 2 (31/150, 20.7%), and PPV1 (7/150, 4.7%), whereas ADV, EMCV, and JEV were not detected. The newly developed mqPCR and mRT-qPCR could simultaneously detect and differentiate with high sensitivities and specificities. When applied to aborted fetuses, the newly developed mqPCR for PPV was 33.3% more sensitivities than the previously established diagnostic method. Amino acid analysis of the VP2 sequences of PPV isolates revealed considerable similarity to the highly pathogenic Kresse strain. This study successfully evaluated the prevalence of viral agents causing reproductive failure among swine in Korea, the developed mqPCR and mRT-qPCR methods could be utilized as effective and accurate diagnostic methods for the epidemiological surveillance of ADV, PPV, EMCV, and JEV.

Virus Res 2024; 339:199247. [PMID: 37923168 PMCID: PMC10751695 DOI: 10.1016/j.virusres.2023.199247] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/14/2023] [Revised: 09/19/2023] [Accepted: 10/16/2023] [Indexed: 11/07/2023]
Abstract
Porcine parvovirus (PPV) is a pathogen of infectious reproductive disease, which can cause stillbirth, mummification, embryo death, and infertility (SMEDI) syndrome in pigs. The objective of this study was to gain new insights into the evolution and phylogeny of the PPV1 genome. In this study, we isolated two new PPV1 (HLJ202108-Y and SDLC202109) from northern China and sequenced their whole genomes. The new isolates were found to have three amino acid substitutions (K195R, K562R, and S578P) in nonstructural protein 1. The VP2 amino acid site contained nine nonsynonymous substitutions, including six substitutions of the Kresse strain corresponding to the NADL-2 strain and three substitutions of A414S, S436T, and N555K. Genetic evolution analysis was conducted on 107 reference sequences available in the GenBank database, and 4-5 PPV1 taxa were defined. The new isolates were in the same phylogenetic cluster as strain 27a. The changes in the cluster, specifically marker amino acids, and their potential role in enhancing pathogenicity are discussed in this study. Furthermore, the evolutionary tree map results showed that the strains in China were evolving in two directions: one was becoming increasingly similar to early NADL-2 strains, while the other was evolving toward 27a-like strains. We also compared the proliferation ability of the isolated strains in susceptible cells by analyzing the multistep growth curves. The results showed that the virulence titer of the mutant strain was high. In summary, this study introduced the latest changes in PPV and discussed the virus characteristics that were considered to affect virulence.

Ling Z, Zhang H, Chen Y, Sun L, Zhao J. A Subunit Vaccine Based on the VP2 Protein of Porcine Parvovirus 1 Induces a Strong Protective Effect in Pregnant Gilts. Vaccines (Basel) 2023; 11:1692. [PMID: 38006024 PMCID: PMC10675385 DOI: 10.3390/vaccines11111692] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/12/2023] [Revised: 10/12/2023] [Accepted: 10/19/2023] [Indexed: 11/26/2023] Open
Abstract
Porcine parvovirus 1 (PPV1) is one of the most prevalent pathogens that can cause reproductive disorder in sows. The VP2 protein of PPV1 is the most important immunogenic protein that induces neutralizing antibodies and protective immunity. Thus, VP2 is considered an ideal target antigen for the development of a genetically engineered PPV1 vaccine. In this study, the baculovirus transfer vector carrying the HR5-P10-VP2 expression cassette was successfully constructed with the aim of increasing the expression levels of the VP2 protein. The VP2 protein was confirmed using SDS‒PAGE and Western blot analyses. Electronic microscope analysis showed that the recombinant VP2 proteins were capable of self-assembling into VLPs with a diameter of approximately 25 nm. The immunogenicity of the VP2 subunit vaccine was evaluated in pigs. The results showed that VP2 protein emulsified with ISA 201VG adjuvant induced higher levels of HI antibodies and neutralizing antibodies than VP2 protein emulsified with IMS 1313VG adjuvant. Furthermore, the gilts immunized with the ISA 201VG 20 μg subunit vaccine acquired complete protection against PPV1 HN2019 infection. In contrast, the commercial inactivated vaccine provided incomplete protection in gilts. Therefore, the VP2 subunit vaccine is a promising genetically engineered vaccine for the prevention and control of PPV1.
