Abstract
The Ibaraki virus (IBAV) causes Ibaraki disease in cattle. Our previous studies have shown that IBAV uses macropinocytosis to enter the host cell and exit from the endosome to the cytosol in response to endosomal acidification. To further explore the mechanism of IBAV infection and replication, we examined the effect of inhibitors of mitochondrial oxidative phosphorylation, carbonyl cyanide m-chlorophenyl hydrazone (CCCP) and antimycin A, on IBAV propagation. These inhibitors significantly suppressed IBAV propagation, with reduced cellular ATP levels resulting from suppression of ATP synthesis. Furthermore, we identified AMP-activated protein kinase (AMPK), which is activated by CCCP or antimycin A, as a key signaling molecule in IBAV suppression. We also observed that IBAV infection induces ATP depletion and increases AMPK activity. Our findings suggest that AMPK is a potential target in Ibaraki disease.

Abstract
Epizootic hemorrhagic disease (EHD) is an infectious viral disease caused by epizootic hemorrhagic disease virus (EHDV) and EHDV frequently circulates in wild and domestic ruminants. Sporadic outbreaks of EHD have caused thousands of deaths and stillbirths on cattle farms. However, not much is known about the circulating status of EHDV in Guangdong, southern China. To estimate the seroprevalence of EHDV in Guangdong province, 2886 cattle serum samples were collected from 2013 to 2017 and tested for antibodies against EHDV using a competitive ELISA. The overall seroprevalence of EHDV reached 57.87% and was highest in autumn (75.34%). A subset of positive samples were serotyped by a serum neutralization test, showing that EHDV serotypes 1 and 5-8 were circulating in Guangdong. In addition, EHDV prevalence always peaked in autumn, while eastern Guangdong had the highest EHDV seropositivity over the five-year period, displaying apparent temporal-spatial distribution of EHDV prevalence. A binary logistic model analysis indicated a significant association between cattle with BTV infections and seroprevalence of EHDV (OR = 1.70, p < 0.001). The co-infection of different serotypes of EHDV and BTV raises a high risk of potential genomic reassortment and is likely to pose a significant threat to cattle, thus urging more surveillance to monitor their circulating dynamics in China.

Abstract
Epizootic hemorrhagic disease virus (EHDV) is a member of the genus Orbivirus, family Sedoreoviridae. It was firstly recognized in 1955 to cause a highly fatal disease of wild white-tailed deer in America. So far, EHDV was detected and isolated in many wild or domestic ruminants, and widely distributed all over the world. Although the domestic cattle and sheep infected by EHDV were usually asymptomatic or subclinical, several outbreaks of epizootic hemorrhagic disease (EHD) in deer and cattle had been reported. Many EHDV strains were isolated and sequenced in last two decades in China, which promoted a general serologic investigation of EHDV in China. In this study, 18,122 sera were collected from asymptomatic or subclinical domestic ruminants (cattle, cow, yaks, sheep, goats, and deer) in 116 regions belonging to 15 provinces in China. All the sera were tested by EHDV C-ELISA, and the results were obtained by big data analysis. EHDV infections were detected in the 14 of 15 provinces, and only Tibet (average altitude ≥ 4000 m) which was the highest province in China was free of EHDV. The numbers of seropositive collections in both bovine and goat/sheep were in an inverse proportion to the latitude. However, the seropositive rates in bovine were ranged from 0% to 100%, while the seropositive rates in goat/sheep were no more than 50%. The results suggested that bovine was obviously more susceptive for EHDV infection than goat and sheep, therefore might be a major reservoir of EHDV in China. The prevalence of EHDV was consistent with the distribution of Culicoides which were known as the sole insect vectors of EHDV. In particular, the seropositive rates of EHDV were very high in the southern provinces, which required the enhanced surveillance in the future. This is a big data analysis. This is the first English report for EHDV prevalence in multiple provinces in China. The samples included in this study cover 15 provinces and 6 years.

Abstract
Epizootic hemorrhagic disease (EHD) is an insect-transmitted viral disease of wild and domestic ruminants. It was first described following a 1955 epizootic in North American white-tailed deer (Odocoileus virginianus), a species which is highly susceptible to the causative agent of EHD, epizootic hemorrhagic disease virus (EHDV). EHDV has been detected globally across tropical and temperate regions, largely corresponding to the presence of Culicoides spp. biting midges which transmit the virus between ruminant hosts. It regularly causes high morbidity and mortality in wild and captive deer populations in endemic areas during epizootics. Although cattle historically have been less susceptible to EHDV, reports of clinical disease in cattle have increased in the past two decades. There is a pressing need to identify new methods to prevent and mitigate outbreaks and reduce the considerable impacts of EHDV on livestock and wildlife. This review discusses recent research advancements towards the control of EHDV, including the development of new investigative tools and progress in basic and applied research focused on virus detection, disease mitigation, and vector control. The potential impacts and implications of these advancements on EHD management are also discussed.

Abstract
The circulation of arboviruses in livestock ruminants has often gone unrecognized owing to the fact that a significant percentage of arboviruses probably induce subclinical infections and/or negligible symptoms in infected animals. To determine the current situation of arbovirus circulation in the Yaeyama Islands, attempts to isolate viruses from bovine blood samples collected between 2014 and 2019 have been made. In total, 308 blood samples were collected during the study period, and 43 of them induced cytopathic effects (CPEs) in cell cultures. The identification of the CPE agents was performed by reported RT-PCR assays and a high-throughput analysis with a next-generation sequencing platform. The obtained viruses consisted of an orthobunyavirus (Peaton virus), Culicoides-borne orbiviruses (bluetongue virus serotypes 12 and 16, epizootic hemorrhagic disease virus [EHDV] serotypes 5, 6, and 7, D'Aguilar virus, and Bunyip Creek virus), and potential mosquito-borne orbiviruses (Yunnan orbivirus, Guangxi orbivirus, and Yonaguni orbivirus). Most of the orbiviruses were recovered from washed blood cells with mosquito cell cultures, suggesting that this combination was more efficient than other combinations such as plasma/blood cells and hamster cell lines. This marked the first time that the isolation of EHDV serotypes 5 and 6 and three potential mosquito-borne orbiviruses was recorded in Japan, showing a greater variety of orbiviruses on the islands than previously known. Genetic analysis of the isolated orbiviruses suggested that the Yaeyama Islands and its neighboring regions were epidemiologically related. Some of the viruses, especially the potential mosquito-borne orbiviruses, were isolated during several consecutive years, indicating their establishment on the islands.

Abstract
Ibaraki virus (IBAV) causes Ibaraki disease. We have previously shown that IBAV NS3 protein is highly glycosylated and that tunicamycin, an inhibitor of N-linked glycosylation, suppressed NS3 glycosylation and viral propagation. Since tunicamycin is known to cause endoplasmic reticulum (ER) stress, we explored the effects of ER stress and NS3 glycosylation on IBAV infection using tunicamycin and thapsigargin. These reagents both induced ER stress and NS3 glycosylation inhibition in a concentration-dependent manner, and as in our previous report, high concentrations of tunicamycin and thapsigargin suppressed IBAV propagation. However, lower concentrations of these reagents produced limited differences in IBAV propagation, despite their ability to suppress NS3 glycosylation and induce ER stress. These findings suggest that a considerable degree of NS3 glycosylation inhibition and ER stress induction does not suppress IBAV propagation. Conversely, lower concentrations of thapsigargin enhanced IBAV propagation, suggesting that moderate ER stress could benefit IBAV.

Abstract
Epizootic hemorrhagic disease (EHD) is an arthropod-borne disease of wild and domestic ruminants caused by the EHD virus (EHDV). To date, seven EHDV serotypes have been identified. In Japan, strain Ibaraki of EHDV serotype 2 has caused outbreaks of Ibaraki disease in cattle. In addition, EHDV serotype 7 (EHDV-7) has caused large-scale EHD epizootics. In mid-September 2016, eight cattle at a breeding farm in Fukuoka Prefecture, Japan developed fever. Since EHDV-7 was detected in sentinel cattle in western Japan in 2016, we suspected that the cause of this fever might be an EHDV-7 infection. In this study, we tested cattle for EHDV-7 and some other viruses. Consequently, EHDV was isolated from washed blood cells collected from three of the eight cattle, and genetic analysis of genome segment 2 revealed that this isolate was EHDV-7. Moreover, all affected cattle tested positive for anti-EHDV-7 neutralizing antibodies. Our results suggest that the fever was caused by EHDV-7 infection. In addition, we modified a conventional reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction assay for the specific detection of EHDV. This modified assay could detect various strains of EHDV isolated in Japan, Australia, and North America. Furthermore, the assay permitted the detection of EHDV-7 in blood cells collected from seven of the eight cattle. We believe that this modified assay will be a useful tool for the diagnosis of EHD.

Ibaraki virus enters host cells by macropinocytosis. Virus Res 2021; 302:198492.

Abstract
Ibaraki virus (IBAV) is the pathogen associated with Ibaraki disease. In a previous study, we suggested that IBAV enters hamster lung (HmLu-1) cells via endocytosis and subsequently escapes into the cytoplasm upon endosomal acidification. However, it is unclear which of the endocytic pathways IBAV utilizes. In this study, we aimed to further elucidate the pathway of IBAV entry into host cells. We found that IBAV replication was not suppressed by inhibitors of clathrin-mediated or caveolin-mediated endocytosis but was markedly suppressed by 5-(N-ethyl-N-isopropyl) amiloride (EIPA) and cytochalasin D, both of which inhibit macropinocytosis. Monensin, which inhibits endosomal acidification, also suppressed IBAV replication. To assess the inhibitory effects of these reagents on endocytosis, dextran and transferrin were used as indicators of macropinocytosis and clathrin-mediated endocytic activity, respectively. Our data confirmed that EIPA and monensin inhibited dextran uptake, and cytochalasin D inhibited the uptake of both. Additionally, we confirmed that endosomal/lysosomal acidification was inhibited by monensin. These results suggest that the macropinocytosis pathway is the major route of IBAV entry and confirm that IBAV infection of HmLu-1 cells is dependent on endosomal acidification.

Abstract
Epizootic congenital abnormalities caused by Akabane, Aino, and Chuzan viruses have damaged the reproduction of domestic ruminants in East Asia for many years. In the past, large outbreaks of febrile illness related to bovine ephemeral fever and Ibaraki viruses severely affected the cattle industry in that region. In recent years, vaccines against these viruses have reduced the occurrence of diseases, although the viruses are still circulating and have occasionally caused sporadic and small-scaled epidemics. Over a long-term monitoring period, many arboviruses other than the above-mentioned viruses have been isolated from cattle and Culicoides biting midges in Japan. Several novel arboviruses that may infect ruminants (e.g., mosquito- and tick-borne arboviruses) were recently reported in mainland China based on extensive surveillance. It is noteworthy that some are suspected of being associated with cattle diseases. Malformed calves exposed to an intrauterine infection with orthobunyaviruses (e.g., Peaton and Shamonda viruses) have been observed. Epizootic hemorrhagic disease virus serotype 6 caused a sudden outbreak of hemorrhagic disease in cattle in Japan. Unfortunately, the pathogenicity of many other viruses in ruminants has been uncertain, although these viruses potentially affect livestock production. As global transportation grows, the risk of an accidental incursion of arboviruses is likely to increase in previously non-endemic areas. Global warming will also certainly affect the distribution and active period of vectors, and thus the range of virus spreads will expand to higher-latitude regions. To prevent anticipated damages to the livestock industry, the monitoring system for arboviral circulation and incursion should be strengthened; moreover, the sharing of information and preventive strategies will be essential in East Asia.

Abstract
Ibaraki virus (IBAV) is an arbovirus that is transmitted by biting midges and causes
Ibaraki disease in cattle. IBAV induces apoptosis in several mammalian cell lines, and
apoptosis in turn facilitates IBAV replication. In addition, virus-induced apoptosis may
contribute to mammalian-specific pathogenicity considering that some arboviruses induce
apoptosis in mammalian cells but not in insect cells. In this study, we found that when
hamster lung cells (HmLu-1) are used as a virus host, IBAV causes severe cytopathic
effects with little induction of apoptosis. Furthermore, pharmacological inhibition of
apoptosis did not affect IBAV-induced cytotoxicity. These results indicate the existence
of an apoptosis-independent pathway in which IBAV replicates and exerts cytotoxicity in
mammalian cells.

Abstract
Ibaraki virus (IBAV) is a strain of epizootic hemorrhagic disease virus 2 that belongs to the genus Orbivirus of the family Reoviridae. IBAV replication is suppressed by the inhibition of autophagy, and since mechanistic target of rapamycin complex 1 (mTORC1) is a key regulator of autophagy, we examined if mTORC1 inhibition by amino acid starvation or mTOR inhibitors (Torin 1 and rapamycin) affects IBAV replication. We found that IBAV replication is significantly enhanced after amino acid starvation of host cells, but not after treatment with mTOR inhibitors, during early stages of viral infection (0-1 hpi). Notably, inhibition of mTORC1 by amino acid starvation was reversible and thus restricted to 0-1 hpi, whereas mTOR inhibitors sustainably suppressed mTORC1 even after the 1-h treatment, suggesting that mTORC1 suppression itself does not affect IBAV replication. To investigate the mechanism of enhanced IBAV replication by amino acid starvation, we examined the endocytic pathway, since IBAV utilizes acidification of endosomes as a trigger for viral replication. Accordingly, we found that amino acid starvation, but not mTOR inhibitors, strongly induced acidification of endosomes/lysosomes and that inhibition of endosomal acidification by bafilomycin A1 effectively blocked enhancement of IBAV replication. Altogether, the inactivation of mTORC1 by amino acid starvation during early stages of infection enhances acidification of endosomes, which in turn enhances IBAV replication.

Abstract
Background In Japan, epizootic arboviral infections have severely impacted the livestock industry for a long period. Akabane, Aino, Chuzan, bovine ephemeral fever and Ibaraki viruses have repeatedly caused epizootic abnormal births and febrile illness in the cattle population. In addition, Peaton, Sathuperi, Shamonda and D’Aguilar viruses and epizootic hemorrhagic virus serotype 7 have recently emerged in Japan and are also considered to be involved in abnormal births in cattle. The above-mentioned viruses are hypothesized to circulate in tropical and subtropical Asia year round and to be introduced to temperate East Asia by long-distance aerial dispersal of infected vectors. To watch for arbovirus incursion and assess the possibility of its early warning, monitoring for arboviruses was conducted in the Yaeyama Islands, located at the most southwestern area of Japan, between 1994 and 2014. Results Blood sampling was conducted once a year, in the autumn, in 40 to 60 healthy cattle from the Yaeyama Islands. Blood samples were tested for arboviruses. A total of 33 arboviruses including Akabane, Peaton, Chuzan, D’ Aguilar, Bunyip Creek, Batai and epizootic hemorrhagic viruses were isolated from bovine blood samples. Serological surveillance for the bovine arboviruses associated with cattle diseases in young cattle (ages 6–12 months: had only been alive for one summer) clearly showed their frequent incursion into the Yaeyama Islands. In some cases, the arbovirus incursions could be detected in the Yaeyama Islands prior to their spread to mainland Japan. Conclusions We showed that long-term surveillance in the Yaeyama Islands could estimate the activity of bovine arboviruses in neighboring regions and may provide a useful early warning for likely arbovirus infections in Japan. The findings in this study could contribute to the planning of prevention and control for bovine arbovirus infections in Japan and cooperative efforts among neighboring countries in East Asia.

Abstract
Epizootic hemorrhagic disease virus (EHDV) is a distinct species within the genus Orbivirus, within the family Reoviridae. The epizootic hemorrhagic disease virus genome comprises ten segments of linear, double stranded (ds) RNA, which are packaged within each virus particle. The EHDV virion has a three layered capsid-structure, generated by four major viral proteins: VP2 and VP5 (outer capsid layer); VP7 (intermediate, core-surface layer) and VP3 (innermost, sub-core layer). Although EHDV infects cattle sporadically, several outbreaks have recently occurred in this species in five Mediterranean countries, indicating a potential threat to the European cattle industry. EHDV is transmitted by biting midges of the genus Culicoides, which can travel long distances through wind-born movements (particularly over water), increasing the potential for viral spread in new areas/countries. Expression systems to generate self-assembled virus like particles (VLPs) by simultaneous expression of the major capsid-proteins, have been established for several viruses (including bluetongue virus). This study has developed expression systems for production of EHDV VLPs, for use as non-infectious antigens in both vaccinology and serology studies, avoiding the risk of genetic reassortment between vaccine and field strains and facilitating large scale antigen production. Genes encoding the four major-capsid proteins of a field strain of EHDV-6, were isolated and cloned into transfer vectors, to generate two recombinant baculoviruses. The expression of these viral genes was assessed in insect cells by monitoring the presence of specific viral mRNAs and by western blotting. Electron microscopy studies confirmed the formation and purification of assembled VLPs.

Abstract
Epizootic hemorrhagic disease (EHD) is an arthropod-borne infectious viral disease sustained by the epizootic hemorrhagic disease virus (EHDV). The only commercially available and currently used vaccines are manufactured for EHDV-2 in Japan, either live or inactivated vaccines. In this study we tested the innocuity for fetuses of the live attenuated EHDV-2 vaccine in five late-term pregnant cows. Whole blood and serum samples were collected from dams and screened for the presence of EHDV-2 RNA, infectious virus and antibodies. After calving, whole blood and serum samples collected from calves, before and after colostrum intake, were also tested for antibodies and for virus detection. In dams, neither fever nor clinical signs were observed. All of them seroconverted and a strong humoral response was detected throughout the sampling period. All blood samples tested negative for EHDV-2 except for one sample collected from a dam 11 days post-vaccination which tested positive at virus isolation at the third cell passage following two rounds of blind passages. Although they had free access to colostrum, calves tested serologically negative for EHDV-2 during the entire course of the experiment. Overall, the tested live attenuated vaccine can be safely administered to late-term pregnant cows as it was not demonstrated to cross the placental barrier. The safety of the live-attenuated vaccine is further confirmed by the emergence of Ibaraki virus in 2013 in Japan which is apparently not related to the spread of the vaccine strain currently used in Japan.

Abstract
The effect of environmental acidification on Ibaraki virus (IBAV) infection was tested
using endosomal inhibitory chemicals and low pH treatment. Treatment of target cells with
endosomal inhibitors significantly decreased the progeny virus production. IBAV outer
capsid proteins, VP5 and VP2, were removed from virion when purified IBAV was exposed to
low pH environment. Further experiment showed that the exposure to low pH buffer
facilitated IBAV infection when the cellular endosomal pathway was impaired by bafilomycin
A1. Results obtained in this study suggest that acidic environment is essential to
initiate IBAV infection.

Abstract
The cytotoxicity of Ibaraki virus nonstructural protein NS3 was confirmed, and the
contribution of glycosylation to this activity was examined by using glycosylation mutants
of NS3 generated by site-directed mutagenesis. The expression of NS3 resulted in leakage
of lactate dehydrogenase to the culture supernatant, suggesting the cytotoxicity of this
protein. The lack of glycosylation impaired the transport of NS3 to the plasma membrane
and resulted in reduced cytotoxicity. Combined with the previous observation that NS3
glycosylation was specifically observed in mammalian cells (Urata et al.,
Virus Research 2014), it was suggested that the alteration of NS3 cytotoxicity
through modulating glycosylation is one of the strategies to achieve host specific
pathogenisity of Ibaraki virus between mammals and vector arthropods.
