Abstract
Introduction Goose astrovirus (GAstV) is a newly emerging pathogen that is currently widespread among geese, causing visceral gout and leading to substantial gosling mortalities, posing a severe threat to the waterfowl industry. GAstV II is the predominant epidemic strain, characterized by its high morbidity and mortality rate. Consequently, there is an urgent necessity to develop an effective diagnostic approach to control the dissemination of GAstV II, particularly in clinical farms with limited laboratory resources. Methods In this study, a novel multi-enzyme isothermal rapid amplification (MIRA) and lateral flow dipstick (LFD) combined assay was developed. Different primers designed specific targeting a highly conserved region within the viral RdRp gene for the detection of GAstV II. Primers optimized and MIRA-LFD assay analyzed its performance regarding limits of detection, specificity, and efficiency of detection. Results The developed MIRA amplification is conducted at a constant temperature and accomplished within 10 minutes. Subsequent naked-eye observation of the LFD strips merely takes 5 minutes. The established MIRA-LFD method exhibits high specificity, with no cross-reaction with other pathogens and attains a detection sensitivity of 1 copy/μl, which is consistent with the reverse transcription quantitative PCR (RT-qPCR) assay. Further evaluation with clinical samples indicates that the accuracy of this MIRA-LFD method correlates well with RT-qPCR for the detection of GAstV II. Conclusion In summary, the convenience, sensitivity, and rapidity of this newly developed detection method offer a significant advantage for on-site diagnosis of GAstV II.

Viruses 2024; 16:765. [PMID: 38793646 PMCID: PMC11125696 DOI: 10.3390/v16050765] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/16/2024] [Revised: 05/06/2024] [Accepted: 05/06/2024] [Indexed: 05/26/2024] Open
Abstract
(1) Goose astrovirus (GAstV) is a novel emerging pathogen that causes significant economic losses in waterfowl farming. A convenient, sensitive, and specific detection method for GAstV in field samples is important in order to effectively control GAstV. Droplet digital polymerase chain reaction (ddPCR) is a novel, sensitive, good-precision, and absolute quantitation PCR technology which does not require calibration curves. (2) In this study, we developed a ddPCR system for the sensitive and accurate quantification of GAstV using the conserved region of the ORF2 gene. (3) The detection limit of ddPCR was 10 copies/µL, ~28 times greater sensitivity than quantitative real-time PCR (qPCR). The specificity of the test was determined by the failure of amplification of other avian viruses. Both ddPCR and qPCR tests showed good repeatability and linearity, and the established ddPCR method had high sensitivity and good specificity to GAstV. Clinical sample test results showed that the positive rate of ddPCR (88.89%) was higher than that of qPCR (58.33%). (4) As a result, our results suggest that the newly developed ddPCR method might offer improved analytical sensitivity and specificity in its GAstV measurements. The ddPCR could be widely applied in clinical tests for GAstV infections.

Molecular characterization of a virulent goose astrovirus genotype-2 with high mortality in vitro and in vivo. Poult Sci 2024; 103:103585. [PMID: 38492247 PMCID: PMC10959697 DOI: 10.1016/j.psj.2024.103585] [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: 01/03/2024] [Revised: 02/15/2024] [Accepted: 02/20/2024] [Indexed: 03/18/2024] Open
Abstract
Goose astrovirus (GAstV) is a newly identified viral pathogen threatening waterfowl, exhibiting a high prevalence across various regions in China. Notably, the Guanghan District of Deyang City, situated in Sichuan Province, has faced a outbreak of GAstV, resulting in significant mortality among goslings due to the induction of gout-like symptoms. In our research, we successfully isolated a GAstV strain known as GAstV SCG3. This strain exhibits efficient replication capabilities, proving virulent in goslings and goose embryos. Our study delved into the characteristics of GAstV SCG3 both in vitro and in vivo. Additionally, we examined tissue phagocytosis and the distribution of GAstV SCG3 in deceased goslings using H&E staining and IHC techniques. According to the classification established by the ICTV, GAstV SCG3 falls under the category of GAstV genotype-2. Notably, it demonstrates the highest homology with the published AHAU5 sequences, reaching an impressive 98%. Furthermore, our findings revealed that GAstV SCG3 exhibits efficient proliferation exclusively in goose embryos and in LMH cells, while not manifesting in seven other types of avian and mammalian cells. Significantly, the mortality of GAstV on goslings and goose embryos are 93.1 and 80%, respectively. Moreover, the viral load in the livers of infected goslings surpasses that in the kidneys when compared with the attenuated strain GAstV SCG2. The mortality of GAstV is usually between 20% and 50%, our study marks the first report of a virulent GAstV strain with such a high mortality.

Versatility of reverse transcriptase loop-mediated isothermal amplification (RT-LAMP) from diagnosis of early pathological infection to mutation detection in organisms. Mol Biol Rep 2024; 51:211. [PMID: 38270670 DOI: 10.1007/s11033-023-09110-z] [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: 07/23/2023] [Accepted: 12/05/2023] [Indexed: 01/26/2024]
Abstract
Loop-mediated isothermal amplification (LAMP) is a rapid, state-of-the-art DNA amplification technology, used primarily for the quick diagnosis and early identification of microbial infection, caused by pathogens such as virus, bacteria and malaria. A target DNA can be amplified within 30 min using the LAMP reaction, taking place at a steady temperature. The LAMP method uses four or six primers to bind eight regions of a target DNA and has a very high specificity. The devices used for conducting LAMP are usually simple since the LAMP method is an isothermal process. When LAMP is coupled with Reverse Transcription (RT), it allows direct detection of RNA in a sample. This greatly enhances the efficiency of diagnosis of RNA viruses in a sample. Recently, the rampant spread of COVID-19 demanded such a rapid, simple, and cost-effective Point of Care Test (PoCT) for the accurate diagnosis of this pandemic. Loop-mediated isothermal amplification (LAMP) assays are not only used for the detection of microbial pathogens, but there are various other applications such as detection of genetic mutations in food and various organisms. In this review, various implementations of RT-LAMP techniques would be discussed.

Abstract
Goose astrovirus (GAstV) is a small, non-enveloped, single-stranded, positive-sense RNA virus. GAstV has rapidly spread across various regions in China since 2016. In Sichuan, out of 113 samples were collected from goose diseases between 2019 and 2022, 97 were positive for GAstV through PCR testing. Remarkably, over the past three years, GAstV outbreak in Sichuan has accounted for an astonishing 85.8% of all goose-origin viruses. Among these cases, 63.9% had single GAstV infections, 29.9% had dual infections, and 6.2% had quadruple infections. To comprehend the variations in virulence among distinct strains of GAstV. 12 representative strains of single GAstV infections were isolated. These strains exhibited distinct characteristics, such as prominent white urate depositions in organs and joints, as well as extensive tissues phagocytosis in major target organs' tissues. The conserved ORF1b genes and the variable ORF2 genes of these representative GAstV strains were sequenced, enabling the establishment of phylogenetic trees for GAstV. All GAstV strains were identified as belonging to genotype-2 with varying internal gene sequences. Experiments were conducted on GAstV genotype-2, both in vivo and in vitro, revealed significant variations in pathogenicity and virulence across susceptible cells, embryos, and goslings. This comprehensive study enhances researchers' understanding of the transmission characteristics and virulence of GAstV genotype-2, aiding in a better comprehension of their molecular epidemiology and pathogenic mechanism.

[PMID: 38783746 DOI: 10.1016/j.aca.2023.341807] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/14/2023] [Revised: 09/06/2023] [Accepted: 09/07/2023] [Indexed: 05/25/2024]
Abstract
Sulfonephthaleins represent one of the most common and widely employed reactive dyes in analytical chemistry, thanks to their stability, low-cost, well-visible colors, reactivity and possibilities of chemical modification. Despite being first proposed in 1916, nowadays, these molecules play a fundamental role in biological and medical applications, environmental analyses, food quality monitoring and other fields, with a particular focus on low-cost and disposable devices or methods for practical applications. Since up to our knowledge, no reviews or book chapters focused explicitly on sulfonephthaleins have ever been published, in this review, we will briefly describe sulfonephthaleins history, their acid-base properties will be discussed, and the most recent applications in different fields will be presented, focusing on the last ten years literature (2014-2023). Finally, safety and environmental issues will be briefly discussed, despite being quite controversial.

[PMID: 37936127 PMCID: PMC10629041 DOI: 10.1186/s12917-023-03790-2] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/06/2023] [Accepted: 10/21/2023] [Indexed: 11/09/2023] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Goose astrovirus (GoAstV) is an important pathogen that causes joint and visceral gout in goslings. It has been circulating in many provinces of China since 2017. Goose astrovirus genotypes 2 (GoAstV-2) is the main epidemic strain, and its high morbidity and mortality have caused huge economic losses to the goose industry. An accurate point-of-care detection for GoAstV-2 is of great significance. In this study, we developed a real-time reverse transcription recombinase polymerase amplification (RT-RPA) method for the on-site detection of GoAstV-2 infection. RESULTS The real-time RT-RPA reaction was carried out at a constant temperature of 39 °C, and the entire detection time from nucleic acid preparation to the end of amplification was only 25 min using the portable device. The results of a specificity analysis showed that no cross-reaction was observed with other related pathogens. The detection limit of the assay was 100 RNA copies/μL. The low coefficient of variation value indicated excellent repeatability. We used 270 clinical samples to evaluate the performance of our established method, the positive concordance rates with RT-qPCR were 99.6%, and the linear regression analysis revealed a strong correlation. CONCLUSIONS The established real-time RT-RPA assay showed high rapidity, specificity and sensitivity, which can be widely applied in the laboratory, field and especially in the resource-limited settings for GoAstV-2 point-of-care diagnosis.

Abstract
Goose gout disease is a high morbidity and mortality disease caused by novel serotype 1 goose astrovirus (GAstV-1), which has resulted in huge economic loss to the goose industry of China. However, few diagnostic methods have been developed for serological surveillance of GAstV-1. In our previous study, several novel B cell epitopes were identified in the ORF2 protein of GAstV-1. In this study, one novel peptide of 627-646 aa in the ORF2 recognized by monoclonal antibody (mAb) 6C6 was used as an antigen to develop an efficient peptide-based ELISA (pELISA) for detection of antibodies against GAstV-1. Specificity analysis showed that the pELISA only reacted with sera against GAstV-1, but not with sera against other pathogens tested. The sensitivity of the pELISA in detecting positive sera was higher than that of the IFA (Indirect immunofluorescence assay). The coefficients of variation (CV) of the intra-assay and inter-assay were both < 10%, indicating that the reproducibility of pELISA was good. For detection of clinical samples, the pELISA had 87.5% concordance with the IFA. Our data demonstrate that the pELISA generated here provides an accurate, rapid, and economical method for the detection antibodies against GAstV-1 for serological surveillance.

Abstract
Goose astrovirus (GAstV) leads to viscera and joints urate deposition in 1- to 20-day-old goslings, with a mortality rate of up to 50%, posing a severe threat to entire colonies; however, there is no efficient prevention and control method for GAstV infection. This study describes a prophylactic anti-GAstV strategy based on the specific immunoglobulin Y (IgY) from egg yolk. The specific IgY was produced by 22-week-old laying hens intramuscularly immunized with the inactivated GAstV three consecutive times, with 2-week intervals. The egg yolk was collected weekly after the immunization and the anti-GAstV IgY titer was monitored using an agar gel immune diffusion assay (AGID). The results revealed that the AGID titer began to increase on day 7, reached a peak on day 49, and remained at a high level until day 77 after the first immunization. The specific IgY was prepared from the combinations of egg yolk from day 49 to day 77 through PEG-6000 precipitation. Animal experiments were conducted to evaluate the effects of prevention and treatment. The result of the minimum prophylactic dose of the IgY showed that the protection rate was 90.9% when 2.5 mg was administrated. Results of the prevention and the treatment experiments showed prevention and cure rates of over 80% when yolk antibody was administered in the early stages of the GAstV infection. These results suggested that the specific IgY obtained from immunized hens with the inactivated GAstV could be a novel strategy for preventing and treating GAstV infection.

Abstract
Fatal gout in geese caused by goose astrovirus (GAstV) has been spreading rapidly in China since 2018, causing serious economic losses in the goose breeding industry. To achieve simple, convenient and sensitive detection of GAstV, a novel diagnostic test was developed by combining reverse transcription-enzymatic recombinase amplification (RT-ERA) and CRISPR-Cas12a technologies. RT-ERA primers were designed to pre-amplify the conserved region of the ORF2 gene of GAstV and the predefined target sequence detected using the Cas12a/crRNA complex at 37℃ for 30 min. Specific detection of GAstV was achieved with no cross-reaction with non-GAstV templates and a sensitivity detection limit of 2 copies. The experimental procedure could be completed within 1 h, including RNA extraction (15 min), RT-ERA reaction (20 min), CRISPR-Cas12a/crRNA detection (5 min) and result readout (within 2 min) steps. In conclusion, the combination of RT-ETA and CRISPR-Cas12a provides a rapid and specific method that should be effective for the control and surveillance of GAstV infections in farms from remote locations.

Abstract
In recent years, an infection in geese caused by goose astrovirus (GAstV) has repeatedly occurred in coastal areas of China and rapidly spread to inland provinces. The infection is characterized by joint and visceral gout and is fatal. The disease has caused huge economic losses to China's goose industry. GAstV is a nonenveloped, single-stranded, positive-sense RNA virus. As it is a novel virus, there is no specific classification. Here, we review the current understanding of GAstV. The virus structure, isolation, diagnosis and detection, innate immune regulation, and transmission route are discussed. In addition, since GAstV can cause gout in goslings, the possible role of GAstV in gout formation and uric acid metabolism is discussed. We hope that this review will inform researchers to rapidly develop effective methods to prevent and treat this disease.

Abstract
Nucleic acid amplification-based techniques have gained acceptance by the scientific, and general, community as reference methodologies for many different applications. Since the development of the gold standard of these techniques, polymerase chain reaction (PCR), back in the 1980s many improvements have been made, and alternative techniques emerged reporting improvements over PCR. Among these, isothermal amplification approaches resulted of particular interest as could overcome the need of specialized equipment to accurately control temperature changes, but it was after year 2000 that these techniques have flourished in a huge number of novel alternatives with many different degrees of complexities and requirements. An added value is their possibility to be combined with many different naked-eye detection strategies, simplifying the resources needed, allowing to reduce cost, and serving as the basis for novel developments of lab-on-chip systems, and miniaturized devices, for point-of-care testing. In this review, we will go over different types of naked-eye detection strategies, combined with isothermal amplification. This will provide the readers up-to-date information for them to select the most appropriate strategies depending on the particular needs and resources for their experimental setup.

Abstract
Goose astrovirus (GAstVs) is an emerging pathogen of goslings that causes fatal gout, kidney hemorrhages, renomegaly, and high mortality. The GAstVs VP27 protein is an important capsid protein and a candidate for the development of diagnostic reagents. The aim of this study was to clone and express the VP27 gene for preparation of a specific monoclonal antibody (mAb). The VP27 protein was expressed and purified in the supernatant of Escherichia coli BL21. Then, the mAb was obtained with the hybridoma technique and named 2AF11. It was differentiated as IgG1 with the help of immunoglobulin subclass tests. This mAb can specifically recognize the VP27 protein in GAstVs-infected cells, as evidenced by western blot analysis and immunofluorescent assay. Furthermore, this mAb could also detect the VP27 protein in GAstVs-infected tissues, as demonstrated by immunohistochemistry. These findings indicate that this mAb has high diagnostic potential. Therefore, the newly produced anti-VP27 mAb, 2AF11, could be a useful tool as a specific diagnostic marker for GAstVs.

Abstract
The novel coronavirus disease 2019 caused by the severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) has been surging rapidly around the world, which has exposed humanity to unprecedented economic, social and health impacts. To achieve efficient and accurate detection of SARS-CoV-2 on site, we developed and verified a rapid and sensitive fluorescence lateral flow immunoassay based on the innovative enhanced strand exchange amplification (ESEA-LFIA) in this study. With good amplification efficiency for short-sequence targets, ESEA is an ideal choice for the point-of-care testing of SARS-CoV-2 with a high mutation rate. ESEA reaction can be completed in one step and verified by restriction enzyme digestion. The design consisting of three working primers greatly improved the amplification efficiency. Amplification of the target sequences of the RdRP and N genes can be accomplished under the same reaction conditions, and does not require expensive instruments. The sensitivity of the ESEA-LFIA assay targeting the RdRP and N genes was 90 copies per μL and 70 copies per μL, respectively. Specificity tests showed that the novel assay can specifically detect SARS-CoV-2, and had no cross-reactivity with 9 closely-related human pathogenic coronaviruses and other common respiratory pathogens with similar clinical manifestations. The cutoff values of the RdRP and N gene assays are 11 and 12, respectively, and the assays can be completed within 1 h. The novel strategy proposed in this study is a sensitive and specific method for the rapid detection of SARS-CoV-2, and is suitable as an effective potential bioanalytical tool to respond to future regional or global outbreaks of emerging infectious pathogens with high mutation rates.

Abstract
In this study, a one-step isothermal method combining polymerase spiral reaction (PSR) with reverse transcription (RT-PSR) was established for rapid and specific detection of novel astroviruses causing fatal gout in goslings (N-GoAstV). The one-step RT-PSR was accomplished at the optimal temperature of 62°C and time of 40 min and used primers simply designed as conventional PCR primers, and the results of detection were visible to the naked eye. The detection limit of PSR was above 34.7 copies/μL at a 95% probability level according to probit regression analysis. The assay specifically detected N-GoAstV, and no other reference viruses were detected. These results suggest that the newly established RT-PSR assay could, in one step, accomplish reverse-transcription, amplification, and result determination providing a visible, convenient, rapid, and cost-effective test that can be carried out onsite, in order to ensure timely quarantine of N-GoAstV-infected birds, leading to effective disease control.
