摘要: 2014年,我国广东省的哨兵牛上分离出蓝舌病病毒血清7型(BTV-7)毒株,但该血清型病毒在我国的流行情况尚不清楚,本研究旨在分离我国流行的BTV-7型毒株并掌握其遗传特征。作者在云南省景洪市勐罕镇设立哨兵牛,每周定时采血,并接种C6/36、BHK-21细胞分离虫媒病毒,通过病毒蚀斑试验与增殖曲线分析病毒在细胞上的感染特性,采用高通量测序获取分离毒株的全基因组序列,通过qRT-PCR与血清中和试验对哨兵牛血液中的病毒核酸与中和抗体变化进行回溯分析。结果表明:2020年5月,分离到1株能引起BHK-21细胞发生细胞病变的病毒(毒株号V303/YNJH/2020),经鉴定为BTV-7型。分离毒株的基因组全长19 154 bp (GenBank收录号MW046280至MW046289),与广东省2014年分离的BTV-7型GDST008毒株具有最近的亲缘关系,基因节段1至6,基因节段9与10的核酸与编码蛋白氨基酸序列(nt/aa)相似度分别大于98%、99%;V303/YNJH/2020毒株的基因的节段7和基因节段8属Western地域型,与广东GDST008毒株对应基因节段的nt/aa序列相似度仅为71.5%/81.6%、79.6/%84.4%。病毒蚀斑与增殖曲线比较显示,V303/YNJH/2020在BHK-21细胞的增殖能力明显强于GDST008。回溯分析显示,感染V303/YNJH/2020的哨兵牛未出现临床症状,血液中的病毒核酸持续存在长达12周;在病毒感染后第4~9周,血液中的中和抗体滴度水平维持在1∶256。云南省2020年分离的BTV-7型V303/YNJH/2020毒株与广东省分离的BTV-7型GDST008毒株具有最近的亲缘关系,在BHK-21细胞上的增殖能力强于GDST008毒株;V303/YNJH/2020虽未引起感染动物的临床症状,但病毒核酸与中和抗体在感染动物血液中长时间存在。研究结果为开展BTV-7型在我国的演化规律、病毒变异以及致病性等方面的研究奠定了基础。

Abstract: Bluetongue virus serotype 7 (BTV-7) was firstly isolated from sentinel cattle in Guangdong Province in 2014; however, the epidemic situation of this serotype was still not clear in China. The objective of the present study is to isolate and analyze the genomic characterization of BTV-7 epideictic in China. Sentinel cattle were placed in Jinghong County, Yunnan Province, and blood samples were collected weekly for arbovirus isolation by inoculating cells. Complete genome sequence of the isolated virus was obtained by high-throughput sequencing. The infection feature of the isolated virus on cells were analyzed by virus plaque assay and proliferation curve analysis. The dynamics of viral nucleic acids and antibodies in the blood of infected sentinel cattle were monitored by serum neutralization test (SNT) and qRT-PCR. In May 2020, a virus strain (V303/YNJH/2020) causing cytopathic effects (CPE) on BHK-21 cells was isolated from the blood sample collected from sentinel cattle, which was serotyped as BTV-7. The genome of V303/YNJH/2020 was 19 154 bp in length (GenBank accession numbers: MW046280 to MW046289), which showed the closest relationship to the BTV-7 GDST008 strain isolated in Guangdong Province in 2014, with nucleic acid (nt) and encoding protein amino acid (aa) sequence identities of segment 1 to 6, segment 9 and 10 higher than 98% and 99%. However, the segment 7 and 8 of V303/YNJH/2020 belonged to the Western topotype, shared nt/aa sequence identities of 71.5%/81.6% and 79.6%/84.4% with the corresponding segment of GSDT008. Results of virus plaque assay and proliferation curve analysis showed that the proliferation ability of V303/YNJH/2020 in BHK-21 cells was significantly robust than that of GDST008. Sentinel cattle infected with V303/YNJH/2020 did not show observed clinical symptoms, but viral nucleic acids in the blood persisted up to 12 weeks, and neutralization antibodies in blood remained at titers of 1:256 during 4-9 weeks after virus infection. The BTV-7 strain V303/YNJH/2020 isolated in Yunnan Province in 2020 has the closest relationship with BTV-7 strain of GDST008, and possessed robust proliferation ability on cells than GDST008. The infection of V303/YNJH/2020 did not cause clinical symptoms in cattle, but viral nucleic acids and neutralization antibodies existed in the blood of infected cattle for a long time. The results of this study laid the foundation for the research on evolution, viral mutation caused by reassortment and pathogenicity of BTV-7 strains.
