摘要: 犬腺病毒2型(canine adenovirus type 2,CAV-2)是重要的犬呼吸道病原,本试验旨在调查CAV-2在川渝部分地区的流行情况及其分离毒株致病性。采用检测CAV-2的特异性PCR方法,对2021—2022年采集自川渝部分地区的121份患呼吸道疾病的犬鼻咽拭子进行检测,分离流行毒株并研究其基因组特征及致病性。结果显示:CAV-2的阳性率为29.8%,值得注意的是,69.4%的阳性样本在E3基因存在9个核苷酸连续缺失(1 035—1 043 nt),导致4个氨基酸缺失(345—348 aa)。成功分离出1株E3基因自然缺失毒株,噬斑纯化后的细胞半数感染值为10-9.46TCID50·0.1 mL-1;该毒株经口鼻感染幼犬后,幼犬出现体温升高、打喷嚏、流鼻涕及咳嗽等典型呼吸道症状。该分离毒株基因组全长31 786 bp,与GenBank中CAV-2基因组的核苷酸相似性为98.8%~98.9%。与已知的CAV-2基因组相比,本研究分离毒株除了E3基因的独特突变外,还在Fiber、Hexon和E1A等蛋白有独特的氨基酸突变,使得该毒株在基因组进化树上区别于已知的CAV-2毒株。本试验首次获得了中国CAV-2毒株的基因组序列,发现了E3基因的自然缺失现象,有助于了解CAV-2的流行及遗传进化。

Abstract: Canine adenovirus type 2(CAV-2) is an important respiratory pathogen in Canine. The aim of this study was to investigate the prevalence and pathogenicity of CAV-2 in parts of Sichuan Province and Chongqing Municipality. The nasal swabs of 121 canines with respiratory tract diseases were collected from 2021 to 2022 for detecting CAV-2 by specific PCR primers, and the epidemic strain was isolated for further study, including its genome characteristics and pathogenicity. The results showed that the positive rate of CAV-2 in canine was 29.8%. Notably, 69.4% of the positive samples had identical 9 consecutive nucleotide deletions (1 035-1 043 nt) in the E3 genes, which resulting in 4 amino acid deletions in the E3 genes (345-348 aa). One strain with natural E3 deletion was successfully isolated, and the half infection value of MDCK cells was 10-9.46TCID50·0.1 mL-1 after plaque purification. The puppies inoculated with the isolation showed typical respiratory symptoms, such as sneezing, runny nosing and coughing. The genome of the isolate was 31 786 bp, and shared the homology of 98.8%-98.9% in nt with the CAV-2 genomes in GenBank. Compared with the known CAV-2 genomes, besides the unique mutations of the E3 gene, the isolate in this study also had unique amino acid mutations in Fiber, Hexon, and E1A, which made this strain distinguish from the known CAV-2 strain in the genomic evolutionary tree. This study obtained the genome sequence of the Chinese CAV-2 strain for the first time, and found the strain with natural deletion in E3 genes, which is helpful to understand the prevalence and genetic evolution of CAV-2.
