#1 - Safety and efficacy of allogeneic bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells for treatment of canine leukopenia induced by canine parvovirus infection

Abstract in English:

This study aims to establish a therapy strategy for canine leukopenia induced by canine parvovirus (CPV) infection through intravenous infusion of allogeneic bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells (BMMSCs) and to evaluate the therapeutic effect of BMMSCs on canine parvovirus. Forty healthy 2-month-old dogs were randomly divided into four groups including the BMMSC treatment group (A), conventional treatment group (B), CPV infection group (C), and a normal control group (D). Then the A, B, and C groups were orally infected with CPV (103.25 TCID50/mL) at 1mL/kg, and the D group received the same dose of saline. After the onset of infection, Group A received mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) and rehydration as the treatment; Group B was treated with anti-inflammatory therapeutics and rehydration; and Group C and D were injected with the same dose of physiological saline. The level of leukocytes rebounded significantly after the treatment with BMMSCs and returned to reference numbers on Day 3 after treatment, which was significantly higher than that in the conventional treatment group. The concentrations of IL-2 and IFN-α were gradually increased during the treatment, and the BMMSC treatment group exhibited significantly higher IL-2 and IFN-α concentrations than the conventional treatment group on Days 3 and 4. The expression of the virus in the blood gradually decreased during the treatment, and the BMMSC treatment group displayed a faster decrease than the conventional treatment group. These results showed the advantages of BMMSC treatment over conventional treatment. This study provides a new BMMSC treatment strategy for canine leukopenia induced by CPV infection and reveals the mechanism by which BMMSC increases leukocytes after CPV infection.

Este estudo tem como objetivo estabelecer uma estratégia terapêutica de leucopenia canina induzida pela infecção por parvovírus canino (CPV) através de infusão intravenosa de células tronco mesenquimais da medula óssea alogênica (BMMSCs) e avaliar o efeito terapêutico de BMMSCs no parvovírus canino. Quarenta cães saudáveis de dois meses de idade foram divididos aleatoriamente em quatro grupos: o grupo de tratamento de BMMSCs (A), o grupo de terapia convencional (B), o grupo de infecção por CPV (C) e um grupo controle (D). Os grupos A, B e C foram infectados oralmente com CPV (103.25 TCID50/mL) a 1mL/kg e o D recebeu a mesma dose de soro fisiológico. Após o início da infecção, o grupo A recebeu uma dose de derivadas da medula óssea (CTMMO) e hidratação como tratamento, o grupo B foi tratado com terapia anti-inflamatória e hidratação, e grupos C e D foram injetados com a mesma dose de soro fisiológico. As concentrações de IL-2 e IFN-α aumentaram gradualmente durante o tratamento, e o grupo de tratamento BMMSC mostrou concentrações significativamente maiores de IL-2 e IFN-α do que o grupo de tratamento convencional nos Dias 3 e 4. A expressão de vírus no sangue diminuiu gradualmente durante o tratamento, e o grupo de tratamento BMMSC mostrou uma diminuição mais rápida do que o grupo de tratamento convencional. Esses resultados mostraram as vantagens do tratamento BMMSC em relação ao tratamento convencional. Este estudo fornece uma nova estratégia de tratamento da BMMSC para leucopenia canina induzida pela infecção por VCP e revela o mecanismo pelo qual a BMMSC aumenta os leucócitos após infecção por VCP.


#2 - Phylogenetic and pathotypic characterization of newcastle disease virus in Tibetan chickens, China

Abstract in English:

Chickens are considered to be potential reservoirs of Newcastle disease virus (NDV). In this study, six Newcastle disease virus strains were isolated and characterized in Tibetan chickens. The HN gene was sequenced, and phylogenetic relationship to reference strains was studied. The phylogenetic analysis demonstrated that these six isolated strains were closely related to NDV isolates of the reference strains GQ245823, KT002186, KU527561, KJ563939, AY225110, EU305607, KM056357, Y18898, GQ245832, AF077761 and lasota strain. Among them, EU305607, KJ563939 and KM056357 were isolated from India, while lasota strain came from attenuated vaccine widely used in China. Then, mean death time (MDT) and intracerebral pathogenicity index (ICPI) were used to estimate the pathogenicity of the isolates. Pathogenicity experiment showed HNH1 and HN17 to be virulent. Our results indicated that genetically diverse viruses circulate in Tibetan chickens, and based upon the phlogeographic analysis, we estimated the origin of ancestral viruses of the isolates and its sister strains located in India and China (lasota strain). It indicates the importance of continuous surveillance to enhance current understanding of the genetic evolution of the NDV strains.

ABSTRACT.- Ji H.W., Li H.T., Zhu L., Zhang H., Wang Y., Zuo Z.C., Guo W.Z. & Xu Z.W. 2012. Development and evaluation of a loop-mediated isothermal amplification (LAMP) assay for rapid detection of Actinobacillus pleuropneumoniae based the dsbE-like gene. Pesquisa Veterinária Brasileira 32(8):757-760. Key Laboratory of Animal Biotechnology, Center of Sichuan Province, College of Veterinary Medicine, Sichuan Agricultural University, Ya’an, Sichuan, 625014, P.R. China. E-mail: abtcxzw@126.com This paper reports on the development and validation of a loop-mediated isothermal amplification assay (LAMP) for the rapid and specific detection of Actinobacillus pleuropneumoniae (A. pleuropneumoniae). A set of six primers were designed derived from the dsbE-like gene of A.pleuropneumoniae and validate the assay using 9 A. pleuropneumoniae reference/field strains, 132 clinical isolates and 9 other pathogens. The results indicated that positive reactions were confirmed for all A. pleuropneumoniae strains and specimens by LAMP at 63°C for 60 min and no cross-reactivity were observed from other non-A.pleuropneumoniae including Haemophilus parasuis, Escherichia coli, Pasteurella multocida, Bordetella bronchiseptica, Streptococcus suis, Salmonella enterica, Staphylococcus, porcine reproductive and respiratory syndrome virus (PRRSV), and Pseudorabies virus. The detection limit of the conventional PCR was 102 CFU per PCR test tube, while that of the LAMP was 5 copies per tube. Therefore, the sensitivity of LAMP was higher than that of PCR. Moreover, the LAMP assay provided a rapid yet simple test of A. pleuropneumoniae suitable for laboratory diagnosis and pen-side detection due to ease of operation and the requirement of only a regular water bath or heat block for the reaction.
