Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present invention belongs to the field of veterinary biological products, and specifically relates to a porcine reproductive and respiratory syndrome virus NADC30 strain and an application thereof. Background Art
[0002] Porcine reproductive and respiratory syndrome virus NADC30 (PRRSV NADC30) is a single-stranded, positive-sense RNA virus with spherical virions measuring 55 to 60 nanometers in diameter. There are two serotypes, and the strain isolated in my country is the American strain. In recent years, the NADC30 strain circulating in Chinese pig farms is genetically closely related to the NADC30 strain reported in the United States. This strain has reassorted with other subgroups of PRRSV circulating in China (classical PRRSV, HP-PRRSV, or vaccine strains), resulting in a new class of viruses that Chinese researchers collectively refer to as PRRSV NADC30 strains. This strain has become the predominantly circulating PRRSV strain. Infection in sows can cause abortion, while infection in piglets can lead to severe respiratory symptoms, causing significant economic losses to the global swine industry.
[0003] The most effective means of preventing PRRSV NADC30 infection is vaccination. Currently, research on PRRSV NADC30 in my country is in its infancy, and no such vaccines or diagnostic products are available on the market.

[0064] Definition of terms
[0065] In the present invention, unless otherwise specified, the scientific and technical terms used herein have the meanings commonly understood by those skilled in the art. At the same time, in order to better understand the present invention, the definitions and explanations of relevant terms are provided below.
[0066] The term "adjuvant" generally refers to a nonspecific immunopotentiating substance that is injected into the body before or simultaneously with an antigen to enhance or modify the immune response to the antigen. These adjuvants can be used as vaccine components to boost antibody levels in humans and animals, and they can also serve as nonspecific immunopotentiators for adjunctive anti-tumor and anti-infective therapies. The adjuvants are well known to those skilled in the art, and include, but are not limited to: biological adjuvants such as Bacillus Calmette-Guérin (BCG), Corynebacterium pumilus (CP), lipopolysaccharide (LPS), cytokines (such as GM-CSF), cholera toxin (CTX), Escherichia coli heat-labile enterotoxin (LT), and plant adjuvants (such as alkylamines, phenolic components, quinine, saponin, sesquiterpenes, proteins, polypeptides, polysaccharides (such as pachymannan), glycolipids, and lectins); inorganic compound adjuvants such as aluminum adjuvants (such as aluminum hydroxide and aluminum phosphate) and calcium adjuvants (such as calcium carbonate); synthetic adjuvants such as CpG oligodeoxynucleotides (CpG ODN), polyinosinic:cytidylic acid (poly I:C), and levamisole; organic adjuvants such as mineral oil; liposomes such as immunostimulating complexes (ISCOM); and Freund's adjuvants such as complete Freund's adjuvant (CFA) and incomplete Freund's adjuvant (IFA). CFA contains inactivated Mycobacterium tuberculosis (BCG) and mineral oil, and can enhance both humoral and cellular immune responses. IFA, containing only mineral oil, can enhance the body's antibody response. CFA and IFA are the most commonly used adjuvants in animal research. These adjuvants can be pharmaceutically acceptable.
[0067] The term "virulence" is also called virulence or titer, which is intended to indicate the infectivity of the virus. For example, the titer can be expressed as the TCID50 infectious dose (TCID50) of the tissue cell culture medium. 50 )express.
[0068] The term "inactivation" generally refers to destroying the biological activity, reproductive capacity, and pathogenicity of microorganisms while minimizing the impact on their immunogenicity. Inactivated microorganisms are primarily used in the production of inactivated vaccines. The chemical agents or drugs used to inactivate microorganisms are called inactivators.
[0069] The term "inactivated vaccine" usually refers to a biological preparation made by inoculating highly immunogenic pathogenic microorganisms or their metabolites into animals, chicken embryos, tissues or cells for growth and reproduction, and then inactivating them to make them lose their pathogenicity but still retain their immunogenicity.

[0091] Example 1: Isolation and Identification of Porcine Reproductive and Respiratory Syndrome Virus NADC30
[0092] 1.1 Isolation of porcine reproductive and respiratory syndrome virus
[0093] 1.1.1. Treatment of diseased materials
[0094] Lung tissue collected from pigs suspected of being infected with porcine reproductive and respiratory syndrome virus (NADC30) was placed in transport medium (DMEM medium containing 1000 units / ml penicillin, 1000 μg / ml streptomycin, and 20% fetal bovine serum) and stored overnight at 4°C. The tissue was then centrifuged at 10,000 rpm for 10 minutes, and the supernatant was sterilized by filtration through a 0.22 μm microporous filter. The resulting filtrate was used to inoculate Marc145 cells.
[0095] 1.1.2 Virus Isolation and Passaging
[0096] One ml of the treated filtrate was inoculated into a confluent monolayer of Marc145 cells in the logarithmic growth phase. Adsorb at 37°C for 2 hours, gently shaking every 30 minutes to ensure adequate contact between the filtrate and the cells. After adsorption, the cells were decanted and gently washed twice with PBS. DMEM maintenance medium (containing 200 units / ml penicillin, 200 μg / ml streptomycin, and 20 ml / l fetal bovine serum) was then added. The cells were cultured in a 37°C, 5% CO2 incubator for 48–72 hours and then harvested. This method was repeated for five passages. The harvested cell cultures were frozen and thawed twice at -70°C and centrifuged at 4000 rpm for 15 minutes. The supernatant was stored at -70°C until further use and sampled for viral content. The virus solution was inoculated into Marc-145 cells for virus content detection. After the cells grew into a monolayer, the monolayered Marc-145 cells were digested with 0.1% trypsin and the cell suspension was inoculated into a 96-well plate at 100 μl / well. After the cells grew into a monolayer, the culture medium in the well was discarded; 100 μl of virus solution diluted 10-fold with cell maintenance medium (10 -1 ~10 -8 ), each dilution was repeated 4 times, and normal Marc-145 cells were used as control. The cells were cultured in a 37°C, 5% CO2 incubator for 72 h. The cytopathic effect was observed under an inverted biological microscope, and the number of wells with and without cytopathic effect was recorded. The virus TCID was calculated using the Reed-Muench method. 50 The results are as follows Figure 1 As shown, specific cytopathic effect (CPE) was observed in Marc145 cells inoculated with the virus, indicating that Marc145 cells were infected with the virus and the virus could proliferate on Marc145 cells.
[0097] 1.2 PCR identification of porcine reproductive and respiratory syndrome virus NADC30
[0098] 1.2.1 Viral PCR Testing
[0099] Based on the gene sequence of PRRSV GP5 protein published in Genbank, DNAStar was used to align the nucleotide sequences of all PRRSV GP5 protein genes. Two primers were designed in the conserved region using Oligo 6.0. The expected amplification product was 599 bp. The primer sequences are shown in Table 1.
[0100] Table 1. PRRSV PCR primer sequences and amplification target fragment sizes
[0101]
[0102] Extract viral RNA: Take 200 μl of viral cell culture and use the EasyPure Viral DNA / RNA Kit (product of Quanshijin Company, product number: ER201-01) to extract viral RNA, and place it in a -70℃ refrigerator until use.
[0103] RT-PCR reactions were performed in a 20 μL system: 10 μL of 2× one-step reaction mix, 0.4 μL of ES one-step mix, 1 μL of upstream and downstream primers (both at a concentration of 10 pmol), 2 μL of RNA, and 5.6 μL of RNase-free water, for a total of 20 μL system.
[0104] Reaction conditions: 98°C for 30 s; 30 cycles of 98°C for 10 s, 58°C for 10 s, and 72°C for 30 s; and 72°C for 2 min. After completion of the reaction, the PCR product was identified by electrophoresis on a 1% agarose gel. The PCR product was stored at 4°C. A 5 μl aliquot of the reaction product was added with an appropriate amount of loading buffer, mixed thoroughly, and then electrophoresed on a 1% agarose gel (Golden View, 5 μl / 100 mL) at 120 V for 30 min. After electrophoresis, the gel was removed and analyzed using a gel imager. A specific band of approximately 599 bp was amplified. The PCR product was sent to Shanghai Sangon Biotechnology Co., Ltd. for sequencing analysis, which confirmed that the specific band was a DNA molecule with the nucleotide sequence shown in SEQ ID No. 1. The DNA molecule is the GP5 gene sequence of porcine reproductive and respiratory syndrome virus NADC30, encoding the GP5 protein of porcine reproductive and respiratory syndrome virus NADC30. The amino acid sequence of the GP5 protein is SEQ ID No. 2. A gene alignment of the nucleotide sequence of the DNA molecule with the sequence published by NCBI showed a homology of 99.3% with the existing gene encoding the GP5 protein of porcine reproductive and respiratory syndrome virus NADC30. The results showed that the virus in the above-mentioned viral cell culture is porcine reproductive and respiratory syndrome virus NADC30 (PRRSV NADC30).
[0105] Example 2: Virus subculture and determination of titer and virulence
[0106] 2.1 Virus proliferation and culture
[0107] The isolate was inoculated with Marc145 monolayer cells at an MOI of 0.1 and cultured for 48 to 72 hours, then harvested as the F1 generation. The harvested virus solution was subjected to a series of tests including sterility test, exogenous virus test, specificity, and virus titer determination according to the methods in the appendix of Part III of the Chinese Pharmacopoeia of Veterinary Medicine, and the isolates with high titer and purity were selected for cryopreservation. The study eventually screened out a PRRSV NADC30 virus strain, named PRRSV NADC30 strain, as a backup seed virus, and then the PRRSV NADC30 strain was used for continuous cell propagation to allow the virus to better adapt to cell proliferation and increase the virus content (toxin titer). The seed virus was continuously propagated to the F10 generation, and the virus harvest volume of each generation was at least 100 ml. The harvested virus was stored at -70°C. At the same time, the viruses after continuous propagation were subjected to PCR detection, and all of them could be amplified to specific target bands. The results are shown in the table. Figure 2 .
[0108] The porcine reproductive and respiratory syndrome virus (PRRSV) NADC30 strain (passage 5) obtained by screening in the present invention was deposited with the General Microbiology Center of the China Culture Collection Administration on June 5, 2023, with the deposit number CGMCC No. 26423. The deposit address is the Institute of Microbiology, Chinese Academy of Sciences, No. 3, Yard 1, Beichen West Road, Chaoyang District, Beijing. This strain is also referred to herein as the porcine reproductive and respiratory syndrome virus (PRRSV) NADC30 strain CGMCC No. 26423, or simply the PRRSV NADC30 strain.
[0109] 2.2. Toxicity determination
[0110] The acclimated virus was labeled as F1 generation and passaged for 10 generations to detect the virus content. The virus solution was inoculated into Marc-145 cells for virus content detection. After the cells grew into a monolayer, the monolayered Marc-145 cells were digested with 0.1% trypsin and the cell suspension was inoculated into a 96-well plate at 100 μl / well. After the cells grew into a monolayer, the culture medium in the well was discarded; 100 μl of virus solution diluted 10-fold with cell maintenance medium (10) was added to each well. -1 ~10 -8 ), each dilution was repeated 4 times, and normal Marc-145 cells were used as control. The cells were cultured in a 37°C, 5% CO2 incubator for 72 h. The cytopathic effect was observed under an inverted biological microscope, and the number of wells with and without cytopathic effect was recorded. The virus TCID was calculated using the Reed-Muench method. 50 The highest virus titer before acclimation is 10 6.33 TCID 50 / ml, using Marc145 suspension cell culture up to 10 8.0 TCID 50 / ml. Its toxicity can be increased by more than 10 times compared with the toxicity before virus acclimation.
[0111] 2.3 Toxicity assay
[0112] Virulence was determined for the third generation virus culture. Virulence was expressed as the minimum infectious dose (MID), which was determined by diluting the virus 10-fold to 10 -6 , take 10 -4 , 10 -5 , 10 -6Piglets aged 49 to 56 days, negative for PRRSV antibodies and antigens (purchased from Chengxin Farm in Mancheng District, Baoding City, Hebei Province), were inoculated intranasally with 5 ml of the virus at three dilutions. Each pig was observed for 14 consecutive days after challenge. Blood samples were collected for viremia on days 7, 10, and 14 after challenge. Viral PCR was performed according to the method described in 1.2 of Example 1, and the minimum infectious dose (MID) of PRRSV was calculated. The results showed that the MID of PRRSV was 5×10 6.0 TCID 50 / head.
[0113] Example 3. Preparation and testing of inactivated porcine reproductive and respiratory syndrome virus NADC30 vaccine
[0114] 3.1 Virus Reproduction
[0115] The third generation virus seed of porcine reproductive and respiratory syndrome virus (PRRSV) NADC30 strain CGMCC No. 26423 was diluted 1:10 with DMEM cell maintenance medium (DMEM medium containing 200 units / ml of penicillin, 200 μg / ml of streptomycin and 20 ml / l of fetal bovine serum). The diluted virus solution was then inoculated into well-grown Marc145 suspension cells at an MOI of 0.1 and cultured in a cell shaker incubator at 37°C with 5% CO2 for 2-3 days. The cell culture was harvested and the virus content was determined to be 10 7.0~ 8.0 TCID 50 / ml, can be used as antigens for preparing vaccines.
[0116] 3.2. Inactivation of Porcine Reproductive and Respiratory Syndrome Virus (PRRSV) NADC30 strain
[0117] The cell culture was inactivated using binary ethyleneimine (BEI) by adding 2% of a 0.1 mol / L BEI solution, stirring while adding to thoroughly mix, and stirring at 37°C for 20-24 hours to inactivate the virus. A sterile, filtered 1 mol / L sodium thiosulfate solution was then added to the inactivated virus solution, so that the final volume of sodium thiosulfate was 30% of the volume of the added BEI solution. The solution was thoroughly mixed to inactivate the virus, resulting in an inactivated virus solution of porcine reproductive and respiratory syndrome virus (PRRSV) NADC30 strain, which was then stored at 2-8°C. The inactivated virus solution was sampled for sterility and inactivation testing, and qualified for use in vaccine formulation. The sterility test is carried out in accordance with the method in the appendix of Part III of the Chinese Pharmacopoeia of Veterinary Medicine; the inactivation test method is to inoculate two bottles of Marc145 monolayer cells with the inactivated virus solution of porcine reproductive and respiratory syndrome virus PRRSV NADC30 strain, discard the virus solution after adsorption for 1 hour, add 10 times the volume of maintenance solution of the virus inactivation solution, culture at 37°C for 3 days, harvest the cell culture medium and blindly propagate it for one generation according to the same method, and inoculate Marc145 cells for detection without the occurrence of specific cytopathic effect (CPE) to be judged as qualified.
[0118] Among them, 0.1 mol / L BEI solution was prepared by mixing equal volumes of 0.2 mol / L 2-bromoethylamine hydrobromide (BEA, purchased from Shanghai Youen Chemical Co., Ltd.) and 0.4 M sodium hydroxide solution, placing it in a 37°C water bath and shaking it every 10 minutes for 60 minutes to prepare a BEI (diethyleneimine) solution with a final concentration of 0.1 M, which was then sterile filtered before use.
[0119] 3.3 Vaccine Preparation
[0120] The qualified porcine reproductive and respiratory syndrome virus PRRSV NADC30 strain inactivated antigen was diluted to 10 6.0 TCID 50 / ml and 10 7.0 TCID 50 / ml, then mixed with the company's patented adjuvant (605 adjuvant) at a 2:1 ratio (volume ratio) and stirred at 100-300 r / min for 30 minutes to thoroughly mix. The 605 adjuvant (i.e., 605 oil-free adjuvant) is disclosed in the authorized patent ZL201310018498.X. The formula used in this application is: 3.5 g disodium hydrogen phosphate, 0.6 g potassium dihydrogen phosphate, 7 g sodium chloride, 7 g trehalose, 7 g astragalus polysaccharide, 3 g sodium glutamate, 13 g gelatin, 7 g polyethylene glycol 3000, 3 g dextran, and 1000 ml water for injection.
[0121] Three groups of vaccines were prepared in the experiment, as shown in Table 2.

[0124] 3.4 Safety of inactivated porcine reproductive and respiratory syndrome virus vaccine
[0125] Five healthy piglets aged 14 to 21 days (purchased from Chengxin Farm in Mancheng District, Baoding City, Hebei Province) were injected with vaccine No. 1, vaccine No. 2 and the immune control group vaccine through the neck muscle, 4.0 ml per piglet, and observed for 14 consecutive days. No clinical symptoms of porcine reproductive and respiratory syndrome virus or local and systemic adverse reactions caused by vaccination occurred.
[0126] 3.5. Efficacy of inactivated porcine reproductive and respiratory syndrome virus vaccine
[0127] As shown in Table 3, 20 healthy piglets (14 to 21 days old, negative for porcine reproductive and respiratory syndrome virus (PRRSV) antibody antigen) (purchased from Chengxin Farm in Mancheng District, Baoding City, Hebei Province) were used. Five piglets were injected intramuscularly with the inactivated PRRSV NADC30 strain 1 vaccine (1.0 ml / pig), five piglets were injected intramuscularly with the inactivated PRRSV NADC30 strain 2 vaccine (1.0 ml / pig), and five piglets were injected intramuscularly with the control vaccine (2.0 ml / pig). Twenty days after the second vaccination, each piglet received a booster vaccination with the same dose. The control group received a freeze-thawed Marc145 cell suspension. Blood was collected 14 days after the second vaccination, and serum was isolated. Neutralizing antibodies in the serum were measured according to the neutralization test method in the Appendix of the Chinese Pharmacopoeia of Veterinary Medicine. A challenge protection test was also conducted. The 15 immunized piglets and the five control piglets were intranasally infected with 5×10 PRRSV NADC30 strain CGMCC No. 26423 virus. 6.0 TCID 50 The animals were observed for 14 consecutive days after challenge. Blood samples were collected on days 7, 10, and 14 post-challenge for viral serum testing. The detection primers and methods were the same as those described in "1.2. PCR Identification of Porcine Reproductive and Respiratory Syndrome Virus NADC30" in Example 1. The experimental groups are shown in Table 3.

[0129]
[0130] The serum neutralizing antibody titer is determined by the serum neutralization test (fixed virus dilution serum method), and the specific procedure is as follows:
[0131] (1) Preparation
[0132] a. Serum inactivation: Before testing, all serum samples were inactivated in a 56°C water bath for 30 minutes and stored frozen in aliquots.
[0133] b. Cell Preparation: Marc145 cells were cultured in 96-well cell culture plates until they became confluent monolayers.
[0134] c. Preparation of working antigen: Dilute the virus of known titer to 200 TCID using cell culture medium (Gibco product, catalog number: 12100046). 50 / ml.
[0135] (2) Operation method
[0136] a. Take a 48-well cell culture plate and add 200 μl of cell basal culture medium to each well;
[0137] b. Take 200 μl of the test serum and positive serum respectively, add them to the corresponding wells in the first column, mix thoroughly, then pipette 200 μl and add it to the second well. After mixing, pipette 200 μl and add it to the third well. Repeat this dilution process until the eighth well. After mixing, pipette 200 μl and discard.
[0138] c. Add 200 μl of working antigen to each well, mix thoroughly, and incubate at 37°C for 1 hour.
[0139] d. Take a well-grown monolayer of Marc145 cells cultured in a 96-well plate, discard the cell culture medium, and wash one to two times with 0.01 mol / L PBS.
[0140] e. Add 100 μl of neutralized virus solution to each well. Repeat for four wells at each dilution. Incubate the cells in a 37°C, 5% CO2 incubator for 1 hour. Add 100 μl of cell maintenance medium to each well and continue incubation for another 4 days. Determine the neutralizing antibody titer using indirect immunofluorescence assay (IFA).
[0141] f. Simultaneously perform viral regression titration on the working antigen, diluting the working antigen to 100 TCID 50 、10TCID 50 , 1 TCID 50 Each dilution was added to 4 wells, 100 μl per well, and then 100 μl of cell maintenance medium was added to each well. After 1 hour at 37°C, all cells were transferred to a 96-well plate with a well-grown monolayer of Marc145 cells and cultured in a 37°C, 5% CO2 incubator for 4 days. TCID 50 Determination;
[0142] g. Control setup: The titer of the positive serum control group is determined simultaneously with the test serum. The negative serum control is performed in 4 wells, the virus control is performed in 4 wells, and the normal cell control is performed in 8 wells.
[0143] (3) Result determination
[0144] The neutralizing antibody titer of the standard positive serum should be no less than 1:32; CPE should appear in each well of the negative serum and virus control; the virus content should be between 30 and 300 TCID by regression titration of the working antigen. 50 The neutralizing antibody titer of the serum to be tested should be calculated according to the Reed-Muench method in Appendix III of the current Chinese Veterinary Pharmacopoeia.
[0145] Neutralizing antibody testing showed that the vaccine prepared with the porcine reproductive and respiratory syndrome virus (PRRSV) NADC30 strain (CGMCC No. 26423) induced high levels of antibodies. A 1.0 ml vaccination dose of the purified and acclimated PRRSV NADC30 strain (CGMCC No. 26423) achieved the same antibody levels and protection against challenge as a 2.0 ml vaccination dose of the first-generation PRRSV virus, as compared to the first-generation virus. This indicates that the PRRSV NADC30 strain (CGMCC No. 26423) has a higher titer and better immunogenicity. Specific data are shown in Table 4.
[0146] After the challenge, the subjects were observed for 14 consecutive days, with body temperature measured daily, clinical symptoms observed and recorded, and blood was collected on the 7th, 10th, and 14th days after the challenge. Virus PCR testing was performed according to the method described in 1.2 of Example 1. Comprehensive evaluation of body temperature (body temperature increased above 40.5°C and lasted for at least 2 days), clinical symptoms (symptoms such as mental depression and loss of appetite), and pathogen detection (detoxification detection) was performed. The challenge protection rate was 4 / 5 or more, that is, more than 80% protection against virulent challenge was achieved. The results are shown in Table 4. The results show that the porcine reproductive and respiratory syndrome virus PRRSV NADC30 strain CGMCC No. 26423 strain can induce high levels of antibodies and produce 100% protection against virulent challenge.

[0150] Example 4: Study on the persistence of antibodies to inactivated porcine reproductive and respiratory syndrome virus vaccine
[0151] Healthy piglets, 14 to 21 days old and negative for porcine reproductive and respiratory syndrome virus (PRRSV) antibodies (purchased from Chengxin Farm in Mancheng District, Baoding City, Hebei Province), were divided into two groups. Group 1 was immunized with the vaccine of the present invention (vaccine No. 2) via intramuscular inoculation of 1.0 ml of the vaccine and a booster 21 days after immunization. Group 2 was a control group immunized with frozen-thawed Marc145 cells. Neutralizing antibody titers were determined by blood sampling at 1, 3, 5, and 7 months after immunization. The results, shown in Table 5, indicate that PRRSV antibody levels reached their peak 3 months after immunization and remained at a high level until 7 months after immunization. The results of antibody persistence are also shown in Table 5.
