Abstract
Pseudorabies virus (PRV) is a member of the alphaherpesvirus subfamily and the causative agent of Aujeszky's disease in pigs. Driven by the large economic losses associated with PRV infection, several vaccines and vaccine programs have been developed. To this day, the attenuated Bartha strain, generated by serial passaging, represents the golden standard for PRV vaccination. However, a proteomic comparison of the Bartha virion to wild-type (WT) PRV virions is lacking. Here, we present a comprehensive mass spectrometry-based proteome comparison of the attenuated Bartha strain and three commonly used WT PRV strains: Becker, Kaplan, and NIA3. We report the detection of 40 structural and 14 presumed nonstructural proteins through a combination of data-dependent and data-independent acquisition. Interstrain comparisons revealed that packaging of the capsid and most envelope proteins is largely comparable in-between all four strains, except for the envelope protein pUL56, which is less abundant in Bartha virions. However, distinct differences were noted for several tegument proteins. Most strikingly, we noted a severely reduced incorporation of the tegument proteins IE180, VP11/12, pUS3, VP22, pUL41, pUS1, and pUL40 in Bartha virions. Moreover, and likely as a consequence, we also observed that Bartha virions are on average smaller and more icosahedral compared to WT virions. Finally, we detected at least 28 host proteins that were previously described in PRV virions and noticed considerable strain-specific differences with regard to host proteins, arguing that the potential role of packaged host proteins in PRV replication and spread should be further explored. IMPORTANCE The pseudorabies virus (PRV) vaccine strain Bartha-an attenuated strain created by serial passaging-represents an exceptional success story in alphaherpesvirus vaccination. Here, we used mass spectrometry to analyze the Bartha virion composition in comparison to three established WT PRV strains. Many viral tegument proteins that are considered nonessential for viral morphogenesis were drastically less abundant in Bartha virions compared to WT virions. Interestingly, many of the proteins that are less incorporated in Bartha participate in immune evasion strategies of alphaherpesviruses. In addition, we observed a reduced size and more icosahedral morphology of the Bartha virions compared to WT PRV. Given that the Bartha vaccine strain elicits potent immune responses, our findings here suggest that differences in protein packaging may contribute to its immunogenicity. Further exploration of these observations could aid the development of efficacious vaccines against other alphaherpesvirus vaccines such as HSV-1/2 or EHV-1.

Abstract
Coronavirus (CoV) is an important pathogen of humans and animals, which can infect humans or animals through the respiratory mucosal route. Syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) is quite similar to syndrome coronavirus (SARS-CoV) with the same receptor, angiotensin-converting enzyme 2 (ACE2). The S and N proteins are the most important protective antigens of the SARS-CoV-2. The S protein on the viral membrane mediates the virus attachment with the host cells, and the N protein is the most abundant expression during infection. In this study, the recombinant viruses expressing the S and N proteins of SARS-CoV-2 were successfully constructed by Red/ET recombinant technology using Pseudorabies virus (PRV) strain Bartha-K61 as a vector. Genetic stability and growth kinetics analysis showed that the recombinant viruses rPRV-SARS-CoV-2-S and rPRV-SARS-CoV-2-N had similar genetic stability and proliferation characteristics to the parental PRV. The immunoassay results showed that mice immunized with recombinant viruses could produce total IgG antibodies. Therefore, PRV is feasible and promising as a viral vector to express SARS-CoV-2-S and SARS-CoV-2-N genes. This study can provide a reference for future research on live vector vaccines for domestic animals, pets, and wild animals.

Romero N, Wuerzberger-Davis SM, Van Waesberghe C, Jansens RJ, Tishchenko A, Verhamme R, Miyamoto S, Favoreel HW. Pseudorabies Virus Infection Results in a Broad Inhibition of Host Gene Transcription. J Virol 2022; 96:e0071422. [PMID: 35730976 PMCID: PMC9278110 DOI: 10.1128/jvi.00714-22] [Citation(s) in RCA: 5] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/05/2022] [Accepted: 05/31/2022] [Indexed: 12/24/2022] Open
Abstract
Pseudorabies virus (PRV) is a porcine alphaherpesvirus that belongs to the Herpesviridae family. We showed earlier that infection of porcine epithelial cells with PRV triggers activation of the nuclear factor κB (NF-κB) pathway, a pivotal signaling axis in the early immune response. However, PRV-induced NF-κB activation does not lead to NF-κB-dependent gene expression. Here, using electrophoretic mobility shift assays (EMSAs), we show that PRV does not disrupt the ability of NF-κB to interact with its κB target sites. Assessing basal cellular transcriptional activity in PRV-infected cells by quantitation of prespliced transcripts of constitutively expressed genes uncovered a broad suppression of cellular transcription by PRV, which also affects the inducible expression of NF-κB target genes. Host cell transcription inhibition was rescued when viral genome replication was blocked using phosphonoacetic acid (PAA). Remarkably, we found that host gene expression shutoff in PRV-infected cells correlated with a substantial retention of the NF-κB subunit p65, the TATA box binding protein, and RNA polymerase II-essential factors required for (NF-κB-dependent) gene transcription-in expanding PRV replication centers in the nucleus and thereby away from the host chromatin. This study reveals a potent mechanism used by the alphaherpesvirus PRV to steer the protein production capacity of infected cells to viral proteins by preventing expression of host genes, including inducible genes involved in mounting antiviral responses. IMPORTANCE Herpesviruses are highly successful pathogens that cause lifelong persistent infections of their host. Modulation of the intracellular environment of infected cells is imperative for the success of virus infections. We reported earlier that a DNA damage response in epithelial cells infected with the alphaherpesvirus pseudorabies virus (PRV) results in activation of the hallmark proinflammatory NF-κB signaling axis but, remarkably, that this activation does not lead to NF-κB-induced (proinflammatory) gene expression. Here, we report that PRV-mediated inhibition of host gene expression stretches beyond NF-κB-dependent gene expression and in fact reflects a broad inhibition of host gene transcription, which correlates with a substantial recruitment of essential host transcription factors in viral replication compartments in the nucleus, away from the host chromatin. These data uncover a potent alphaherpesvirus mechanism to interfere with production of host proteins, including proteins involved in antiviral responses.

Abstract
Variant pseudorabies viruses (vPRV) have constantly emerged in China since late 2011. In the present study, a 1 × 106.0 TCID50 per-animal dosage of a commercially available Bartha-K61 vaccine and an rPRV/XJ5-gI−/gE−/TK− prototype vaccine freshly extracted from the vPRV/XJ-5 at the same dose were administered to evaluate the immune effectiveness thereof on growing pigs to prevent lethal strikes caused by vPRV/XJ-5. The results suggest that the Bartha-K61 vaccine at a dose of 1 × 106.0 TCID50 per animal and the same dosage of the rPRV/XJ5-gI−/gE−/TK− prototype vaccine protected growing pigs against the lethal challenge of vPRV/XJ-5 strain with 100% survive rate. Furthermore, the outcome of the clinical score, virus shedding, weight gain, and viral loads in different pig tissues in these two groups demonstrates that either the Bartha-K61 vaccine or the rPRV/XJ5-gI−/gE−/TK− prototype vaccine at the same dose exhibited parallel efficacy in pigs against the lethal challenge with the XJ-5 strain of vPRV.

Pseudorabies Virus Infection Triggers NF-κB Activation via the DNA Damage Response but Actively Inhibits NF-κB-Dependent Gene Expression. J Virol 2021; 95:e0166621. [PMID: 34613805 DOI: 10.1128/jvi.01666-21] [Citation(s) in RCA: 15] [Impact Index Per Article: 5.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Indexed: 12/22/2022] Open
Abstract
The nuclear factor kappa B (NF-κB) pathway is known to integrate signaling associated with very diverse intra- and extracellular stressors, including virus infections, and triggers a powerful (proinflammatory) response through the expression of NF-κB-regulated genes. Typically, the NF-κB pathway collects and transduces threatening signals at the cell surface or in the cytoplasm leading to nuclear import of activated NF-κB transcription factors. In the current work, we demonstrate that the swine alphaherpesvirus pseudorabies virus (PRV) induces a peculiar mode of NF-κB activation known as "inside-out" NF-κB activation. We show that PRV triggers the DNA damage response (DDR) and that this DDR response drives NF-κB activation since inhibition of the nuclear ataxia telangiectasia-mutated (ATM) kinase, a chief controller of DDR, abolished PRV-induced NF-κB activation. Initiation of the DDR-NF-κB signaling axis requires viral protein synthesis but occurs before active viral genome replication. In addition, the initiation of the DDR-NF-κB signaling axis is followed by a virus-induced complete shutoff of NF-κB-dependent gene expression that depends on viral DNA replication. In summary, the results presented in this study reveal that PRV infection triggers a noncanonical DDR-NF-κB activation signaling axis and that the virus actively inhibits the (potentially antiviral) consequences of this pathway, by inhibiting NF-κB-dependent gene expression. IMPORTANCE The NF-κB signaling pathway plays a critical role in coordination of innate immune responses that are of vital importance in the control of infections. The current report generates new insights into the interaction of the alphaherpesvirus pseudorabies virus (PRV) with the NF-κB pathway, as they reveal that (i) PRV infection leads to NF-κB activation via a peculiar "inside-out" nucleus-to-cytoplasm signal that is triggered via the DNA damage response (DDR), (ii) the DDR-NF-κB signaling axis requires expression of viral proteins but is initiated before active PRV replication, and (iii) late viral factor(s) allow PRV to actively and efficiently inhibit NF-κB-dependent (proinflammatory) gene expression. These data suggest that activation of the DDR-NF-κB during PRV infection is host driven and that its potential antiviral consequences are actively inhibited by the virus.

Long-Lasting Impact of Maternal Immune Activation and Interaction With a Second Immune Challenge on Pig Behavior. Front Vet Sci 2020; 7:561151. [PMID: 33330688 PMCID: PMC7732429 DOI: 10.3389/fvets.2020.561151] [Citation(s) in RCA: 15] [Impact Index Per Article: 3.8] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/11/2020] [Accepted: 10/28/2020] [Indexed: 01/30/2023] Open
Abstract
The combined effects on pig behavior of maternal immune challenge during gestation followed by a second immune challenge later in life have not been studied. Porcine reproductive and respiratory syndrome virus (PRRSV) infection during gestation can elicit maternal immune activation (MIA) yet the interactions with the offspring response to a second immune challenge after birth remains unexplored. Knowledge on the response to viral challenges in rodents has been gained through the use of the viral mimetic polyinosinic-polycytidylic acid (Poly(I:C)), yet the effects of this immune stimulant on pig behavior have not been assessed. This study advances the understanding of the combined effect of MIA and a second immune challenge later in life on female and male pig behavior. Three complementary experiments enabled the development of an effective Poly(I:C) challenge in pigs, and testing the interaction between PRRSV-elicited MIA, Poly(I:C) challenge at 60 days of age, and sex on behaviors. Individual-level observations on sickness, locomotor, and social behaviors were measured 1-3 h after Poly(I:C) challenge. Vomiting, panting, lethargy, walking, laying, playing, and touching behaviors were analyzed using generalized linear mixed effect models. Results indicated that a Poly(I:C) dose of 1 mg/kg within 1 h after injection increased the incidence of laying and sickness behavior. The Poly(I:C) challenge decreased the incidence of locomotor behaviors and activity levels. Pigs exposed to MIA had lower rates of social behaviors such as playing. The combined effect of PRRSV-elicited MIA and Poly(I:C) immune challenge further sensitized the pigs to behavior disruption across sexes including changes in sternal and lateral laying, walking, lethargy, and touching incidence. Notably, the effects of Poly(I:C) immune challenge alone on behaviors tended to be more extreme in males, whereas the effects of Poly(I:C) following MIA tended to be more extreme in females. Our findings demonstrate that MIA and Poly(I:C) affected behaviors, and the viral mimetic effects shortly after injection can offer insights into the prolonged effect of postnatal viral infections on feeding, social interactions and health status. Management practices that reduce the likelihood of gestational diseases and accommodate for behavioral disruptions in the offspring can minimize the impact of MIA.

Pseudorabies Virus Infection of Epithelial Cells Leads to Persistent but Aberrant Activation of the NF-κB Pathway, Inhibiting Hallmark NF-κB-Induced Proinflammatory Gene Expression. J Virol 2020; 94:JVI.00196-20. [PMID: 32132236 DOI: 10.1128/jvi.00196-20] [Citation(s) in RCA: 14] [Impact Index Per Article: 3.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/05/2020] [Accepted: 02/27/2020] [Indexed: 02/03/2023] Open
Abstract
The nuclear factor kappa B (NF-κB) is a potent transcription factor, activation of which typically results in robust proinflammatory signaling and triggering of fast negative feedback modulators to avoid excessive inflammatory responses. Here, we report that infection of epithelial cells, including primary porcine respiratory epithelial cells, with the porcine alphaherpesvirus pseudorabies virus (PRV) results in the gradual and persistent activation of NF-κB, illustrated by proteasome-dependent degradation of the inhibitory NF-κB regulator IκB and nuclear translocation and phosphorylation of the NF-κB subunit p65. PRV-induced persistent activation of NF-κB does not result in expression of negative feedback loop genes, like the gene for IκBα or A20, and does not trigger expression of prototypical proinflammatory genes, like the gene for tumor necrosis factor alpha (TNF-α) or interleukin-6 (IL-6). In addition, PRV infection inhibits TNF-α-induced canonical NF-κB activation. Hence, PRV infection triggers persistent NF-κB activation in an unorthodox way and dramatically modulates the NF-κB signaling axis, preventing typical proinflammatory gene expression and the responsiveness of cells to canonical NF-κB signaling, which may aid the virus in modulating early proinflammatory responses in the infected host.IMPORTANCE The NF-κB transcription factor is activated via different key inflammatory pathways and typically results in the fast expression of several proinflammatory genes as well as negative feedback loop genes to prevent excessive inflammation. In the current report, we describe that infection of cells with the porcine alphaherpesvirus pseudorabies virus (PRV) triggers a gradual and persistent aberrant activation of NF-κB, which does not result in expression of hallmark proinflammatory or negative feedback loop genes. In addition, although PRV-induced NF-κB activation shares some mechanistic features with canonical NF-κB activation, it also shows remarkable differences; e.g., it is largely independent of the canonical IκB kinase (IKK) and even renders infected cells resistant to canonical NF-κB activation by the inflammatory cytokine TNF-α. Aberrant PRV-induced NF-κB activation may therefore paradoxically serve as a viral immune evasion strategy and may represent an important tool to unravel currently unknown mechanisms and consequences of NF-κB activation.

Abstract
Pseudorabies has caused huge economic losses in China's pig industry and recurred on many large pig farms since late 2011. The disease is caused by highly pathogenic, antigenic variant pseudorabies virus (vPRV) strains. Therefore, the prevention and control of this recurrence of pseudorabies in China has been given priority. In a previous study, we showed that a suitable dose [1 × 106.3 50% tissue culture infectious dose (TCID50) per animal] of commercial Bartha-K61 vaccine protects growing pigs against lethal challenge by the emerging vPRV strain XJ5. In this study, different doses of the Bartha-K61 vaccine and our newly developed rPRV-gI-/gE-/TK- prototype vaccine derived from the vPRV strain XJ5 were used to evaluate immune protection against sublethal challenge by the vPRV strain XJ5. Pigs vaccinated with high doses of the Bartha-K61 vaccine or rPRV-gI-/gE-/TK- prototype vaccine showed no differences in their humoral immune responses, clinical symptoms, body weight gains, viral shedding, or gross and histological lesions after sublethal challenge by the vPRV strain XJ5. Therefore, we concluded that the Bartha-K61 vaccine at a dose of 1 × 105 TCID50 per animal protects pigs against sublethal challenge by the vPRV strain XJ5 and performs equally well as the same dose of the rPRV-gI-/gE-/TK- vaccine, whereas lower doses of the Bartha-K61 vaccine alone do not protect pigs from this challenge. These findings provide useful information for vaccination interventions and the ultimate eradication of pseudorabies caused by vPRV strains emerging in China.

Abstract
The objective of this study was to evaluate the effectiveness of the SurePure Turbulator ultraviolet-C (UV-C, 254 nm wavelength) irradiation equipment on inactivation of different enveloped and non-enveloped viruses in commercially collected liquid animal plasma. Specifically, Pseudorabies virus (PRV), Porcine reproductive and respiratory syndrome virus (PRRSV), Porcine epidemic diarrhea virus (PEDV), Bovine viral diarrhea virus (BVDV), Classical swine fever virus (CSFV), Swine influenza virus (SIV) as enveloped viruses and Porcine parvovirus (PPV), Swine vesicular disease virus (SVDV), Porcine circovirus type 2 (PCV-2) and Senecavirus A (SVA) as non-enveloped viruses, were inoculated in bovine or porcine plasma and subjected to different UV-C irradiation doses (0, 750, 1500, 3000, 6000 and 9000 J/L) using an UV-C device developed for opaque liquid working under turbulent flow. The enveloped viruses tested were inactivated at < 3000 J/L of UV-C, being the dose needed to inactivate 4 log TCID50 (4D) of 1612 J/L for PRV,1004 J/L for PRRSV, 1953 J/L for PEDV, 1639 J/L for SIV, 1641 J/L for CSFV and 1943 J/L for BVDV. The non-enveloped viruses tended to have higher 4D values: 2161 J/L for PPV, 3223 J/L for SVA and 3708 J/L for SVDV. Because the initial viral concentration was <4.0 Log for PCV-2, it was not possible to calculate the 4D value for this virus. In conclusion, these results demonstrated that the SurePure Turbulator UV-C treatment system is capable of inactivating significant levels of swine viruses inoculated in commercially collected porcine or bovine plasma. It was concluded that irradiation with UV-C can provide an additional redundant biosafety feature in the manufacturing process of spray-dried animal plasma.

Abstract
Although pseudorabies virus (PRV) has been eradicated in domestic swine in many countries, its presence in wild boars remains a threat for a reintroduction into the currently unprotected swine population. To assess the possible impact of such a reintroduction in a naive herd, an in vivo infection study using two genetically characterized wild boar PRV isolates (BEL24043 and BEL20075) representative for wild boar strains circulating in south-western and central Europe and the virulent NIA3 reference strain was performed in 2- and 15-week-old domestic pigs. Our study revealed an attenuated nature of both wild boar strains in 15-week-old pigs. In contrast, it showed the capacity of strain BEL24043 to induce severe clinical symptoms and mortality in young piglets, thereby confirming that the known age dependency of disease outcome after PRV infection also holds for wild boar isolates. Despite the absence of clinical disease in 15-week-old sows, both wild boar PRV strains were able to induce seroconversion, but to a different extent. Importantly, differences in infection and transmission capacity of both strains were observed in 15-week-old sows. Strain BEL24043 induced a more prolonged and disseminated infection than strain BEL20075 and was able to spread efficiently to contact animals, indicative of its capacity to induce a sustained infection. In conclusion, it was shown that a reintroduction of a wild boar isolate into the domestic swine population could have serious economic consequences due to the induction of clinical symptoms in piglets and by jeopardizing the PRV-negative status.

Abstract
Different alphaherpesviruses, including pseudorabies virus (PRV), are able to cross the basement membrane barrier in nasal respiratory epithelium. As a first step in investigating this invasion process, a detailed quantitative analysis system was set up to determine the kinetics of horizontal and vertical virus spread in nasal explants, using the virulent PRV strain 89V87. Plaque latitudes, total depths, depths measured from the basement membrane and volumes were determined at 0, 12, 24 and 36h post inoculation (pi). PRV 89V87 was found to spread in a plaquewise manner and to cross the basement membrane between 12 and 24hpi. During the 1960s-1970s, an increase in PRV virulence has been reported. To analyse potential differences in efficiency of infection and spread for different historical PRV strains, single infected cells and plaques of infected cells were quantified at 12 and 36hpi in nasal mucosa explants for seven European PRV strains, isolated in the 1960s (Becker, NIA1), the 1970s (NS374, NIA3, 75V19) and later (89V87, 00V72). All viruses were used at second passage in cell culture, except for the Becker strain, which had an unknown passage history. Older strains, Becker, NIA1 and/or NS374, showed lower numbers of primary infectious centers, lower capacity to form plaques and/or lower capacity to cross the basement membrane. The observed differences in virus-mucosa interactions may aid in understanding the virulence increase of PRV. The quantitative assay established here will be of use in unravelling the mechanism of alphaherpesvirus-mediated invasion through the basement membrane.

Abstract
A recombinant bovine herpesvirus type 1 (BHV-1), designated BHV-1/TF17-1, which expresses pseudorabies virus (PrV) glycoproteins gB, gC, gD, gE and gI in combination was constructed. To test the protective immunity, 10 mice were inoculated with BHV-1/TF17-1 and three weeks later 10 mice were intraperitoneally (i.p.) challenged with 20 LD50 virulent PrV (YS-81). BHV-1/TF17-1 protected all the mice from the PrV lethal challenge while all the control mice died in around 3 days. Mice vaccinated with BHV-1/TF17-1 acquired high PrV-neutralizing antibody titers and demonstrated strong delayed type hypersensitivity responses and moderate in vitro lymphocyte proliferative responses to PrV antigen. Since the major PrV glycoproteins were integrated into virions (probably into viral envelope), BHV-1/17-1 was neutralized with anti-PrV antiserum. However, the susceptibility of BHV-1/TF17-1 to anti-PrV antiserum is 2- to 4-fold lower than that of PrV vaccine lines. Our results demonstrated the possibility of BHV-1/17-1 as a vaccine to protect piglets from Audjesky's disease where maternal antibodies against PrV interfere attenuated live PrV vaccines.

Abstract
Although reduction in transmission of an agent in the host population is an important goal of many vaccinations, suitable experimental methods to measure transmission have been lacking. Therefore, we designed and tested an animal experiment to quantify transmission among vaccinated and unvaccinated animals. We used Aujeszky's disease virus (ADV) in pigs, because a serological test was available to detect infection in vaccinated pigs and because vaccination against ADV will be used in an attempt to eliminate ADV from the Netherlands. Our experiments showed that vaccinating twice with vaccine 783 significantly reduces ADV transmission. In unvaccinated groups, the estimated maximum number of secondary cases per infectious individual, i.e. the basic reproduction ratio R0, was 10.0. In contrast, the reproduction ratio for the vaccinated groups R, i.e. the average number of secondary cases per infectious individual in a totally vaccinated population, was 0.5. These results show that it is possible to measure transmission experimentally. Therefore, such measurements should be obtained for all vaccines that are intended to eliminate agents causing animal diseases, either on a single farm or in a whole country.

Abstract
The purpose of the study was to evaluate the short- and long-term immunity after intranasal vaccination in pigs with maternally derived antibodies (MDA). In two experiments, 10-week-old pigs with moderate MDA titres against Aujeszky's disease virus (ADV) were vaccinated intranasally with the Bartha strain of ADV to evaluate the protective immunity conferred at 2 weeks, 2 months and 4 months after vaccination. Protection was evaluated on the basis of severity of clinical signs, periods of fever and growth arrest, and duration and amount of virus excreted after challenge with a virulent ADV. During the first 2-3 weeks after vaccination, antibodies to ADV continued to decline as in unvaccinated control pigs. After that, antibody titres stabilized or gradually increased. At 2 weeks, 2 months and 4 months after vaccination, vaccinated pigs were significantly better protected than unvaccinated controls. The vaccinated pigs challenged 2 weeks after vaccination hardly developed any sign of disease. Mild signs of Aujeszky's disease and a growth arrest period of 5 days were observed in vaccinated pigs challenged 2 months after vaccination, whereas vaccinated pigs challenged 4 months after vaccination developed severe signs of disease and a growth arrest period of 13 days. Vaccinated pigs challenged 2 weeks after vaccination did not excrete challenge virus, and pigs challenged 2 or 4 months after vaccination excreted far less virus than unvaccinated controls. The results demonstrate that intranasal ADV vaccination of pigs with moderate MDA titres protected them from 2 weeks to at least 4 months after vaccination. Immunity steadily declined, however, after vaccination.

Abstract
Inactivated and live Aujeszky's disease virus vaccines were administered intradermally using a special device without a needle. The 88 pigs were vaccinated at the beginning of the fattening period, both under experimental conditions and in commercial herds. All the pigs were challenged at the end of the fattening period in isolation units. The same vaccines were also injected intramuscularly. Vaccination by the intradermal route induced good protection, similar to that conferred with live virus vaccine injected intramuscularly. The inactivated virus vaccine was not as effective when it was injected by the intradermal route. In animals vaccinated intradermally, there were no local lesions in the meat, but very small nodules were found in the dermis; these do not affect carcass quality. The effects of challenge exposure depended on the initial health of the animals, and a synthetic value (delta G) was used to interpret the data. In fattening pigs, intradermal vaccination required less animal constraint than intramuscular injection; administration could be verified by the presence of a papule at the site of inoculation, and pigs could be vaccinated while they were feeding. Injection without a needle also helps avoid bacterial contamination under farm conditions.

Abstract
Different deleted Aujeszky's disease vaccines were compared for their ability to induce an immunity which suppresses virus excretion optimally upon infection. Groups of pigs were vaccinated once with attenuated deleted Aujeszky's disease vaccine (gI, gX or gp63 negative), suspended in phosphate buffered saline. Two additional groups were vaccinated with a gI deleted vaccine virus suspended in an oil-in-water emulsion. Other groups were vaccinated twice with gI deleted inactivated vaccines. The three control groups included were: pigs immune after infection, unvaccinated pigs and pigs receiving vaccine without known deletion in the envelope. Experimental challenge took place 3 or 4 weeks after the only or the last vaccination. The number of excreting pigs, the duration of excretion and the virus titers excreted, were determined for all the groups. All the pigs vaccinated with glycoprotein deletion vaccines suspended in phosphate buffered saline, excreted virus for 2 to 6 days after challenge. A 100 to 1000 fold reduction in excreted virus titers was obtained in vaccinated pigs compared to unvaccinated ones. Some vaccines suppressed virus excretion better than others, but no correlation could be made between the type of deletion (gI, gX or gp63) and the degree of reduction in virus excretion. Similar results were obtained with two applications of inactivated vaccines. The lowest number of excreting pigs, the lowest duration of excretion and the lowest titers were obtained in groups vaccinated with the attenuated vaccine suspended in an oil-in-water emulsion. No vaccine suppressed virus excretion totally.

Abstract
A study was undertaken of the protection induced by inactivated and live Aujeszky's disease virus vaccines. The vaccines were administered using a special device which, without the use of a needle, delivered the preparation intradermally. The trials were performed on 88 pigs which were vaccinated at the beginning of the fattening period both in experimental conditions and in pig herds. All the pigs were challenged at the end of the fattening period in isolation units. The results obtained were compared with those obtained using the same vaccines injected intramuscularly. It was shown that vaccination via the intradermal route induced good protection in the vaccinated animals and was similar to that conferred by live virus vaccine injected intramuscularly. The results, with the inactivated virus vaccine, were not so good when it was injected via the intradermal route. Studies with intradermal vaccination showed no local lesion or very small nodules strictly localized to the dermis. The results also confirmed that the effects of challenge exposure depended on the health status of animals prior to infection and show the necessity to use a synthetic value (delta G) to interpret the data and mainly to compare the results objectively. In fattening pigs this vaccination procedure is attractive because (i) less animal constraint is needed than would be for intramuscular injections, (ii) injection can be checked by the presence of a visible papula at the site of inoculation and, (iii) pigs can be vaccinated in the ham while they are feeding. Injection without a needle also contributes to avoiding bacterial contamination under practical farm conditions of vaccination.

Abstract
A criterion for the potency testing of pseudorabies vaccine based on the difference between the mean weight gain during the seven days after pathogenic challenge of vaccinated or control piglets is proposed. This criterion, termed delta G7, has been studied as a function of initial weight variation of the animals, different challenge strains and the period between challenge and the end of the test. The statistical analysis of results optimizes the experimental parameters and gives rise to a quantitative test which discriminates between vaccinates and controls and substantiates a proposal for a minimum vaccine potency requirement. The implementation of the method proposed is compatible with current practice in control laboratories.

Abstract
A standardized test was developed to compare the efficacy of Aujeszky's disease virus (ADV) vaccines under laboratory conditions. Per test 3 groups of 6 to 8 sero-negative pigs were used. The first vaccination was done at 10 weeks of age. One group was vaccinated once, another was vaccinated twice and the 3rd served as control. Pigs were challenge exposed to the virulent NIA-3 strain of ADV 12 weeks after the first vaccination. Apart from mortality, average periods of growth arrest, fever and virus shedding after challenge were used as parameters to evaluate vaccine efficacy. Two inactivated and 4 attenuated vaccines were tested. Two attenuated vaccine viruses were excreted after vaccination. Despite maximal standardization, a considerable variation still existed between the experiments in mortality and growth arrest periods of control pigs after challenge. However, the controls were always more severely affected than the vaccinated pigs. All vaccines except one were effective in preventing death after challenge, but none conferred complete protection. Most vaccinated pigs still lost weight, developed fever and shed virus after challenge. Revaccination after 3 or 4 weeks had little effect, particularly with the attenuated vaccines. The results of the present study indicate that 2 of the attenuated vaccines conferred the best protection, 1 attenuated vaccine appeared to be as effective as the 2 inactivated ones, and the 4th attenuated vaccine was least effective.
