Development of a dual immunochromatographic test strip to detect E2 and E rns antibodies against classical swine fever. Front Microbiol 2024; 15:1383976. [PMID: 38666258 PMCID: PMC11043574 DOI: 10.3389/fmicb.2024.1383976] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/08/2024] [Accepted: 03/28/2024] [Indexed: 04/28/2024] Open
Abstract
Background It is essential to consider a practical antibody test to successfully implement marker vaccines and validate vaccination efficacy against classical swine fever virus (CSFV). The test should include a serological antibody assay, combined with a tool for differentiating infected from vaccinated animals (DIVA). The immunochromatographic test strip (ICS) has been exclusively designed for detecting CSFV E2 antibodies while lacking in detecting Erns antibodies, which can be employed and satisfy DIVA strategy. This study developed a novel ICS for detecting CSFV E2/Erns dual-antibody. The effectiveness of ICS in evaluating the DIVA capability of two novel chimeric pestivirus vaccine candidates was assessed. Methods Recombinant E2 or Erns protein was transiently expressed in the plant benthamiana using Agrobacterium tumefaciens. ICS was subsequently assembled, and goat anti-rabbit IgG and recombinant CSFV E2 or Erns protein were plated onto the nitrocellulose membrane as control and test lines, respectively. The sensitivity and specificity of ICS were evaluated using sera with different neutralizing antibody titers or positive for antibodies against CSFV and other pestiviruses. The coincidence rates for detecting E2 and Erns antibodies between ICS and commercial enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) kits were also computed. ICS performance for DIVA capability was evaluated using sera from pigs vaccinated with conventional vaccine or chimeric vaccine candidates. Results E2 and Erns proteins were successfully expressed in N. benthamiana-produced recombinant proteins. ICS demonstrated high sensitivity in identifying CSFV E2 and Erns antibodies, even at the low neutralizing antibody titers. No cross-reactivity with antibodies from other pestiviruses was confirmed using ICS. There were high agreement rates of 93.0 and 96.5% between ICS and two commercial ELISA kits for E2 antibody testing. ICS also achieved strong coincidence rates of 92.9 and 89.3% with two ELISA kits for Erns antibody detection. ICS confirmed the absence of CSFV Erns-specific antibodies in sera from pigs vaccinated with chimeric vaccine candidates. Conclusion E2 and Erns proteins derived from the plant showed great potential and can be used to engineer a CSFV E2/Erns dual-antibody ICS. The ICS was also highly sensitive and specific for detecting CSFV E2 and Erns antibodies. Significantly, ICS can fulfill the DIVA concept by incorporating chimeric vaccine candidates.

Microbiol Spectr 2022; 10:e0089122. [PMID: 36173294 PMCID: PMC9603908 DOI: 10.1128/spectrum.00891-22] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/11/2022] [Accepted: 07/10/2022] [Indexed: 12/30/2022] Open
Abstract
As a notifiable terrestrial and aquatic animal disease listed by World Organisation for Animal Health (formerly the Office International des Epizooties [OIE]), classical swine fever (CSF) has caused great economic losses to the swine industry worldwide during recent decades. Differentiation of infected and vaccinated animals (DIVA) is urgent for eradication of CSF. In this study, a diagnostic platform based on CRISPR/Cas13a was established with the ability to differentiate between classical swine fever virus (CSFV) virulent and vaccine strains. In combination with reverse transcription recombinase-aided amplification (RT-RAA), the detection limit for CSFV synthetic RNA templates reached 3.0 × 102 copies/μL. In addition, with boiling and chemical reduction, heating unextracted diagnostic samples to obliterate nucleases (HUDSON) treatment was introduced to inactivate nucleases and release viral genome, achieving robust pretreatment of tested sample before CRISPR/Cas13a detection without the need to extract viral nucleic acids. HUDSON-RT-RAA-CRISPR/Cas13a can directly detect cell cultures of virulent Shimen strain and vaccine hog cholera lapinized virus (HCLV) strain, with the detection limit of 3.5 × 102 copies/μL and 1.8 × 102 copies/μL, respectively, which was equally sensitive to nested PCR (nPCR) and 100 times more sensitive than antigen enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA). Meanwhile, HUDSON-RT-RAA-CRISPR/Cas13a showed no cross-reactivity with bovine viral diarrhea virus (BVDV), atypical porcine pestivirus (APPV), porcine reproductive and respiratory syndrome virus (PRRSV), porcine epidemic diarrhea virus (PEDV), African swine fever virus (ASFV), pseudorabies virus (PRV), and porcine circovirus 2 (PCV2), exhibiting good specificity. At last, a total of 50 pig spleen samples with suspected clinical signs were also assayed with HUDSON-RT-RAA-CRISPR/Cas13a, nPCR, and antigen ELISA in parallel. HUDSON-RT-RAA-CRISPR/Cas13a showed 100.0% with nPCR and 82.0% coincident rate with antigen ELISA, respectively. IMPORTANCE Classical swine fever (CSF) is a World Organisation for Animal Health (formerly the Office International des Epizooties [OIE]) notifiable terrestrial and aquatic animal disease, causing great economic losses to the swine industry worldwide during the past decades. Due to the use of the most effective and safe attenuated live vaccine for CSF prevention, differentiation of infected and vaccinated pigs is vital work, as well as a bottleneck for eradication of CSF. Methods with the ability to precisely differentiate classical swine fever virus (CSFV) virulent strains from vaccine strain hog cholera lapinized virus (HCLV) are urgently needed. Combining the high sensitivity of isothermal recombinase-aided amplification (RAA) with the accurate molecular sensing ability of Cas13a, we presented a novel method for CSFV detection without the need to extract viral nucleic acids, which showed great advantage to traditional detection methods for precise differentiation of CSFV virulent strains and vaccine strain, providing a novel powerful tool for CSF eradication.

An Improved Immunochromatographic Strip Based on Plant-Derived E2 for Detection of Antibodies against Classical Swine Fever Virus. Microbiol Spectr 2022; 10:e0105022. [PMID: 35862968 PMCID: PMC9431618 DOI: 10.1128/spectrum.01050-22] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/05/2022] [Accepted: 06/27/2022] [Indexed: 11/29/2022] Open
Abstract
Vaccination is an effective method to control the spread of classical swine fever virus (CSFV), which is a major cause of economic losses to the swine industry. Although serological detection assays are commonly used to assess immune status, current methods for monitoring of antibodies (Abs) are time-consuming, expensive, and require cell culture and virus manipulation. To address these problems, the E2 protein of CSFV was expressed in transgenic rice seeds as a labeled antigen for the development of an immunochromatographic test strip (ICTS) for rapid, precise, and cost-effective detection of Abs. The ICTS has a reasonable sensitivity of 1:128,000 for detection of serum Abs against CSFV and no cross-reactivity with Abs of other porcine viruses. The similarity of the results between the proposed ICTS and a commercial enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay was 94.1% (128/136) for detection of serum Abs from immunized animals and 92.3% (72/78) for detection of maternally derived Abs. The proposed assay was successfully used to monitor Abs against E2 of both pigs and rabbits immunized with a live attenuated vaccine or an E2 subunit vaccine. The results confirmed that the ICTS can be applied to detect Ab levels in animals with different immunological backgrounds. The ICTS based on plant-derived E2 is a relatively inexpensive, rapid, and accurate assay for detection of Abs against CSFV and avoids the risk of contamination by animal products. IMPORTANCE The E2 protein of classical swine fever virus (CSFV) was expressed in transgenic rice endosperms as a diagnostic antigen for use with a rapid colloidal gold assay for the detection of antibodies (Abs) against CSFV. This improved test was used to monitor Abs against the E2 protein in both pigs and rabbits immunized with a live attenuated vaccine or E2 subunit vaccine. The assay successfully detected Ab levels in serum samples from piglets with different immunological backgrounds. In contrast to current E2 protein-based diagnostic methods using Escherichia coli or insect cells as expression systems, plant-derived E2 avoids the limitations of low immunogenicity of eukaryotic expression systems and potential contamination of fetal bovine serum with bovine viral diarrhea virus in cell culture.

Abstract
Classical swine fever (CSF) is caused by classical swine fever virus (CSFV) and has led to huge economic losses in the pig industry worldwide. Although vaccination and other control measures have been carried out, it is essential to establish a rapid and valid method for CSF vaccination monitoring and clinical diagnosis. The CSFV E2 protein has been widely used as a major antigen for antibody detection. It is important to improve the affinity between the E2 protein and CSFV antibodies to improve the performance of the detection method. In this study, a recombinant E2 extracellular protein (amino acids 1-331) with a native homodimer conformation and high affinity for the anti-CSFV-E2 monoclonal antibody WH303 was expressed using a Bac-to-Bac baculovirus expression system. A novel immunochromatographic test strip based on the recombinant CSFV E2 protein was developed for CSFV antibody detection. The sensitivity of this strip for detecting CSFV standard-positive serum was 1:102400, 4 times higher than that of the previously developed CnC2 test strip. No cross-reactivity with antibodies of other swine viruses was observed. Detection of clinical swine serum samples (n = 813) demonstrated that the agreements of this E2 test strip with three commercial ELISA kits were 97.17% (790/813), 95.94% (780/813), and 93.73% (762/813), respectively. Our data indicate that a novel E2 test strip with enhanced sensitivity has been developed and can be applied for clinical sample detection, providing a new, powerful and simple approach for CSFV antibody monitoring.

Abstract
Classical swine fever (CSF) is a highly contagious viral disease of pigs, including wild boar. It is regarded as one of the major problems in the pig industry as it is still endemic in many regions of the world and has the potential to cause devastating epidemics, particularly in countries free of the disease. Rapid and reliable diagnosis is of utmost importance in the control of CSF. Since clinical presentations of CSF are highly variable and may be confused with other viral diseases in pigs, laboratory diagnosis is indispensable for an unambiguous diagnosis. On an international level, well-established diagnostic tests of CSF such as virus isolation, fluorescent antibody test (FAT), antigen capture antibody enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA), reverse-transcription polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR), virus neutralization test (VNT), and antibody ELISA have been described in detail in the OIE Terrestrial Manual. However, improved CSF diagnostic methods or alternatives based on modern technologies have been developed in recent years. This review thus presents recent advances in the diagnosis of CSF and future perspectives.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The importance of peptides in regulatory interactions has caused peptide-protein docking to attract the attention of many researchers. A variety of methods for molecular modeling of peptide-protein docking, such as local search and global search, are currently used. RESULTS The interactions of 11 peptides and CSFV E2 protein were evaluated by the GalaxyPepDock and FlexX/ SYBYL programs, respectively. The assessment scores of all the peptides were correlated with their KD values. The final results showed that a moderate correlation coefficient was represented between KD values and CScores of predicted models by FlexX/ SYBYL. CONCLUSION Our results demonstrate that considering the flexibility of the peptide is better than searching for more potential binding sites on the target protein surface while performing peptide-protein molecular docking. These data provide reasonable evidence for the molecular design of peptides and guidance for the functional assignment of target proteins. © 2018 Society of Chemical Industry.

Use of recombinant nucleocapsid proteins for serological diagnosis of feline coronavirus infection by three immunochromatographic tests. J Virol Methods 2014; 196:1-6.

Abstract
Three types of immunochromatographic assays (ICAs) were designed to detect anti-feline coronavirus (FCoV) antibodies. Recombinant FCoV nucleocapsid protein (rNP) was used as a conjugate or test line in all 3 ICA kits (CJIgG/TNP, CJNP/TNP, and CJNP/TPA). All three ICA kits were capable of detecting anti-FCoV antibodies; however, non-specific positive reactions of anti-FCoV antibody-negative plasma samples with the test line were observed in 2 ICA kits (CJIgG/TNP and CJNP/TNP), in which rNP was used as the test line. On the other hand, the specific detection of anti-FCoV antibodies was possible in all plasma, serum, whole blood, and ascitic fluid samples using the ICA kit with protein A blotted as the test line (CJNP/TPA). In addition, the specificity and sensitivity of ICA (CJNP/TPA) were equivalent to those of the reference ELISA. The development of simple antibody test methods using the principle of ICA (CJNP/TPA) for other coronavirus and feline viral infections is expected in the future.
