摘要： There are three main genotypes of porcine circovirus type 2 (PCV2), namely PCV2a, PCV2b and PCV2d, of which PCV2b and PCV2d are currently the most common. There are antigenic differences between these different genotypes. To explore the effect of PCV2 antigen differences on the immune protection provided by vaccines, a cross-immune protection test was carried out in pigs. Three genotype strains, PCV2a-CL, PCV2b-MDJ and PCV2dLNHC, were inactivated and emulsified to prepare inactivated vaccines to immunize pigs, who were then challenged with the circulating strains PCV2b-BY and PCV2d-LNHC. Immunoperoxidase monolayer assays (IPMAs) and micro-neutralization assays were used to detect antibodies against the three different genotypes of PCV2. The results showed that the three genotype vaccines induced pigs to produce antibodies against the same and different genotypes of PCV2, but the levels of IPMA and neutralizing antibodies against the same genotype were higher than those against different genotypes. Quantitative Polymerase Chain Reaction (qPCR), virus titration and immunohistochemistry were used to detect PCV2 genomic DNA, live virus and antigen, respectively, in inguinal lymph nodes of experimental pigs. Following challenge with the PCV2b-BY strain, the viral DNA load in the inguinal lymph nodes of pigs immunized with the three genotype vaccines was reduced by more than 99 % compared to the unimmunized group. Following challenge with the PCV2d-LNHC strain, the viral DNA loads in the inguinal lymph nodes of pigs immunized with PCV2a, PCV2b and PCV2d genotype vaccines were reduced by 93.8 %, 99.8 % and 98.3 %, respectively, compared to unimmunized controls. In addition, neither live PCV2 virus nor antigen were detected in the inguinal lymph nodes of pigs immunized with any of the genotype vaccines (0/18), but both were detected in the lymph nodes of experimental pigs in the unimmunized control group (6/6). These findings suggest that, although the antigenic differences of the three genotype strains induce significant differences in antibody levels, they seem to have little effect on cross-protection between different genotypes.
