摘要： A variant of pseudorabies virus (PRV) with enhanced pathogenicity have emerged in many vaccinated swine herds in China since 2011. PRV Delta TK&gE-AH02, a previously described TK/gE deletion PRV strain arising from the PRV variant AH02LA, has been shown to be safe for PRV antibody positive piglets, and could provide protection against emerging PRV variants. However, inoculation of PRV Delta TK&gE-AH02 into PRV antibody negative neonatal piglets caused lethal infection. In the study, in order to attenuate the virulence of PRV Delta TK&gE-AH02, an additional deletion of 1 similar to x223C13 bp of US3 (the serine/threonine kinase, PK) gene was performed to generate a TK/PK/gE deletion PRV variant (PRV Delta TK&PK&gE-AH02). We found that the growth kinetics of PRV Delta TK&PK&gE-AH02 was similar to that of PRV Delta TK&gE-AH02. Mice inoculated with PRV Delta TK&PK&gE-AH02 in different dose (10(4.0)similar to x223C10(7.0) TCID50) survived and showed no observable clinical symptoms. No virus was detected in the brains or lungs of the mice inoculated with PRV Delta TK&PK&gE-AH02. Moreover, mice inoculated with PRV Delta TK&PK&gE-AH02 and PRV Delta TK&gE-AH02 showed similar survival against virulent PRV AH02LA strain. Importantly, safety test showed no clinical symptoms in PRV antibody negative neonatal piglets that were intranasally inoculated with PRV Delta TK&PK&gE-AH02 at a dose of 10(6.5) TCID50, indicating that the virulence of PRV Delta TK&PK&gE-AH02 was significantly mitigated. Piglets immunized with PRV Delta TK&PK&gE-AH02 exhibited a high serum neutralization index. All piglets inoculated intramuscularly (I.M.) with 1 mL (10(5.0) TCID50) PRV Delta TK&PK&gE-AH02 were completely protected against challenge intranasally (I.N.) with 2LD(50) (10(6.5)TCID(50)) PRV AH02LA strain. In summary, our results indicate that deletion of 1 similar to x223C13 bp of US3 (PK) can provide a useful way for further attenuation of PRV and the PRV Delta TK&PK&gE-AH02 might be a promising vaccine candidate for controlling of the virulent PRV variants in China.
