| high-level expression and immunogenicity of porcine circovirus type 2b capsid protein without nuclear localization signal expressed in hansenula polymorpha. | currently, porcine circovirus type 2b (pcv2b) is the dominant pcv2 genotype causing postweaning multisystemic wasting disease (pmws) in pigs worldwide. efforts have been made to develop various recombinant capsid proteins of pcv2b used in vaccines against pcv2b. however, the nuclear localization signal (nls) of pcv2b capsid protein (cp) was found to inhibit the expression of the whole length capsid protein in e.coli. here, we expressed a nls-deleted capsid protein (δcp) of pcv2b in hansenula pol ... | 2018 | 29225046 |
| genomic regions associated with host response to porcine reproductive and respiratory syndrome vaccination and co-infection in nursery pigs. | the wur1000125 (wur) single nucleotide polymorphism (snp) can be used as a genetic marker for host response to porcine reproductive and respiratory syndrome (prrs), prrs vaccination, and co-infection with porcine circovirus type 2b (pcv2b). objectives of this study were to identify genomic regions other than wur associated with host response to prrs vaccination and prrsv/pcv2b co-infection and regions with a different effect on host response to co-infection, depending on previous vaccination for ... | 2017 | 29132293 |
| germocyte lesions caused by porcine circovirus type 2b in kunming mice. | porcine circovirus type 2 (pcv2) has been known as a causative agent of reproductive failure in the sow. in the present study mouse model was used to investigate pcv2 infection. in order to investigate whether pcv2 can induce lesions of spermatocytes and oocytes, 6 male and 6 female mice were each inoculated intraperitoneally with pcv2b, and 3 male and 3 female mice mock-infected with cell culture supernatant served as controls. samples of testes and ovaries from pcv2b-inoculated and mock-infect ... | 2017 | 28525333 |
| effect of a major quantitative trait locus for porcine reproductive and respiratory syndrome (prrs) resistance on response to coinfection with prrs virus and porcine circovirus type 2b (pcv2b) in commercial pigs, with or without prior vaccination for prrs. | a major qtl for host response to porcine reproductive and respiratory syndrome (prrs) virus (prrsv) infection was identified in a previous study. single nucleotide polymorphism wur10000125 (wur), which is in complete linkage disequilibrium with the putative causative mutation, can be used as a tag snp for the qtl. however, the effect of wur following prrs vaccination and/or coinfection with other pathogens is not known. therefore, objectives of this study were to estimate the effect of wur on ho ... | 2017 | 28380604 |
| versatile carboxyl-terminus of capsid protein of porcine circovirus type 2 were recognized by monoclonal antibodies with pluripotency of binding. | we designed the peptide (c3) mimetic carboxyl-terminus (cterminus) of capsid protein of porcine circovirus type 2b (pcv2b-1a/1b) inducing humoral immunity and generating hybridomas. the positive reactivity of the mabs to pcv2 capsid protein was demonstrated by western blot assay. those mabs also showed positive signals on pcv2b infected swine lymphocytes by indirect immunofluorescence staining. the mab 1h3 bound to three minimal linear epitopes (p62, dpplnp; p67, dpplnpk; p73, lkdpplkp), which w ... | 2017 | 28219820 |
| replacing the decoy epitope of pcv2b capsid protein with a protective epitope enhances efficacy of pcv2b vaccine. | microbial pathogens may evolve decoy epitopes to evade host immune responses. in recent years, a decoy epitope has been identified in the capsid protein (cp) of porcine circovirus type 2b (pcv2b) to divert the immune response away from protective epitopes in pigs. to avoid the decoy effect, we designed and produced a recombinant pcv2b cp (δcp) by replacing the decoy epitope with a neutralizing b cell epitope derived from cp and tested the ability of δcp to induce protective antibody responses in ... | 2016 | 27817956 |
| vertical transmission of pcv2b to fetuses in sows intramuscularly infected with pcv2b. | in order to investigate whether pcv2b can be transmitted across the placenta in sows thereby causing vertical infection of fetuses, six sows in 75 day of pregnancy were either intramuscularly inoculated with a pcv2b culture supernatant (n = 4) or mock infected with cell culture supernatant (n = 2). at parturition, 3 newborn piglets from each litter were randomly selected and euthanatized prior to suckling. samples of the mesenteric lymph nodes, spleens, kidneys, hearts and lungs were collected f ... | 2016 | 27760027 |
| phylodynamic analysis of porcine circovirus type 2: methodological approach and datasets. | since its first description, pcv2 has emerged as one of the most economically relevant diseases for the swine industry. despite the introduction of vaccines effective in controlling clinical syndromes, pcv2 spread was not prevented and some potential evidences of vaccine immuno escape have recently been reported ("complete genome sequence of a novel porcine circovirus type 2b variant present in cases of vaccine failures in the united states" (xiao and halbur, 2012) [1], "genetic and antigenic ch ... | 2016 | 27508215 |
| detection of the assembly and disassembly of pcv2b virus-like particles using fluorescence spectroscopy analysis. | monitoring the assembly and disassembly of virus-like particles (vlps) is important in developing effective vlp-based vaccines. we tried to establish a simple and rapid method to evaluate the status of vlp assembly using fluorescence spectroscopic analysis (fsa) while developing a vlp-based vaccine against porcine circovirus type 2b (pcv2b). we synthesized the gene coding for pcv2b capsid protein (cp). the cp was expressed in escherichia coli in a soluble form, dialyzed into three different buff ... | 2015 | 26783743 |
