Reverse Genetics for Influenza A and B Viruses Driven by Swine Polymerase I Promoter
Methods Mol Biol. 2022;2465:257-281. doi: 10.1007/978-1-0716-2168-4_14.ABSTRACTInfluenza viruses are considered prominent pathogens of humans and animals that are extensively investigated because of public health importance. Plasmid-based reverse genetics is a fundamental tool that facilitates the generation of genetically modified viruses from a cDNA copy. The ability to rescue viruses enables researchers to understand different biological characteristics including IV replication, pathogenesis, and transmission. Furthermore, understanding the biology and ability to manipulate different aspects of the virus can aid in prov...

GSE182645 Spatial, temporal and molecular dynamics of swine influenza virus-specific CD8 tissue resident memory cells
Contributors : Veronica Martini ; Siddharth Jayaraman ; Timothy Connelley ; Elma TchilianSeries Type : Expression profiling by high throughput sequencingOrganism : Sus scrofaWe have defined na ïve, central memory, effector memory and terminally differentiated porcine CD8 T cells, using CD45RA and CCR7 mAbs. We analyzed the phenotype of CD8 T cells specific for three influenza nucleoprotein (NP) epitopes using tetramers after influenza infection or immunization in lymphoid and respiratory tissues. The hierarchy of response to the three epitopes changes during the response in different tissues. Most NP-specific CD8 T ...

Gelasakis Ioannis Bossis Gyula Balka Lilla Dénes Maciej Frant Lapo Nannucci Matteo Bonasso Alessandro Giusti Amadeu Griol In this paper we present the development of photonic integrated circuit (PIC) biosensors for the label-free detection of six emerging and endemic swine viruses, namely: African Swine Fever Virus (ASFV), Classical Swine Fever Virus (CSFV), Porcine Reproductive and Respiratory Syndrome Virus (PPRSV), Porcine Parvovirus (PPV), Porcine Circovirus 2 (PCV2), and Swine Influenza Virus A (SIV). The optical biosensors are based on evanescent wave technology and, in particular...

Major applications include using dendrimers to tackle highly contagious foot-and-mouth disease virus (FMDV) and swine fever virus (SFV) in pigs, FMDV in cattle, hypothermic circulatory arrest (HCA) in dogs, rabies, and H9N2 avian influenza virus in chickens. As we review here, intramusc...

Inherent heterogeneity of influenza A virus stability following aerosolization
Appl Environ Microbiol. 2022 Jan 5:aem0227121. doi: 10.1128/aem.02271-21. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTEfficient human-to-human transmission represents a necessary adaptation for a zoonotic influenza A virus (IAV) to cause a pandemic. As such, many emerging IAVs are characterized for transmissibility phenotypes in mammalian models, with an emphasis on elucidating viral determinants of transmission and the role host immune responses contribute to mammalian adaptation. Investigations of virus infectivity and stability in aerosols concurrent with transmission assessments have increased in recent years, enhancing our understa...

[PERSPECTIVES] Equine Influenza
Horses are the third major mammalian species, along with humans and swine, long known to be subject to acute upper respiratory disease from influenza A virus infection. The viruses responsible are subtype H7N7, which is believed extinct, and H3N8, which circulates worldwide. The equine influenza lineages are clearly divergent from avian influenza lineages of the same subtypes. Their genetic evolution and potential for interspecies transmission, as well as clinical features and epidemiology, are discussed. Equine influenza is spread internationally and vaccination is central to control efforts. The current mechanism of inte...

The A179L Gene of African Swine Fever Virus Suppresses Virus-Induced Apoptosis but Enhances Necroptosis
Viruses. 2021 Dec 13;13(12):2490. doi: 10.3390/v13122490.ABSTRACTA179L, a non-structural protein of African swine fever virus (ASFV), is capable of suppressing apoptosis by binding the BH3 domain of the pro-apoptotic Bcl-2 family proteins via a conserved ligand binding groove. Our present study aims to determine if A179L affects necroptosis, the second form of programmed cell death induced by DNA and RNA viruses. Here we report that A179L enhanced TNF-α or TSZ (TNF-α, Smac, and Z-Vad)-induced receptor-interacting protein kinase (RIPK1), RIPK3, and mixed lineage kinase domain like peudokinase (MLKL) phosphorylation in L92...

Swine Influenza Virus Infection Decreases the Protective Immune Responses of Subunit Vaccine Against Porcine Circovirus Type 2
This study indicates that SIV infection decreases the protective immune responses of vaccine S against PCV2. The macrophage polarization induced by SIV infection might facilitate decreased immune responses to vaccine S, which provides new insight into vaccine evaluation and a reference for the analysis of immunization failure.
