Comparison of the Pathogenicity of Two US Porcine Reproductive and Respiratory Syndrome Virus Isolates with that of the Lelystad Virus

Abstract: Abstract. The Lelystad virus or one of two US isolates (VR2385, VR2431) of porcine reproductive and respiratory syndrome virus were given intranasally to 25 4-week-old cesarian-derived colostrum-deprived pigs. Pigs from these groups were necropsied at 1, 2, 3, 5, 7, 10, 15, 21, or 28 days postinoculation. The Lelystad virus and VR243 1 induced mild transient pyrexia, dyspnea, and tachypnea. VR2385 induced labored and rapid abdominal respiration, pyrexia, lethargy, anorexia, and patchy dermal cyanosis. All thre… Show more

“…The variation in pathogenesis of different isolates of PRRSV is well documented [20,32,35]. Pathological studies have led workers to postulate that it is related to their ability to replicate in vivo [33] though it is possible that such pathogenesis may also be related in part to the ability of certain strains to evade or modify the immune system of the host.…”

“…Fifty percent endpoint titers were computed by the Reed-Meunch method [25]. The presence of macroscopic lung lesions for all seven lung lobes was examined and scored as previously described [26]. All animal studies were conducted in accordance with the National Animal Disease Center's Institutional Animal Care and Use Committee.…”
