In 2012, an unprecedented large-scale outbreak of disease in pigs in China caused great economic losses to the swine industry. Isolates from pseudorabies virus epidemics in swine herds were characterized. Evidence confirmed that the pathogenic pseudorabies virus was the etiologic agent of this epidemic.

Pseudorabies virus (PRV) is one of the highly contagious pathogens causing significant economic losses to the swine industry worldwide. More importantly, PRV is becoming a potential "life-threatening zoonosis" since the human-originated PRV strain was first isolated in 2019. Previously we found that the canonical Wnt/β-catenin pathway facilitates PRV proliferation, while the underlying mechanism remains unknown.

Alpha-ketoglutarate-dependent dioxygenase, also known as fat mass and obesity-associated protein (FTO), is an RNA demethylase that mediates the demethylation of N,2-O-dimethyladenosine (m6Am) and N-methyladenosine (m6A). Both m6Am and m6A are prevalent modifications in mRNA and affect different aspects of transcript biology, including splicing, nuclear export, translation efficiency, and degradation. The role of FTO during (herpes) virus infection remains largely unexplored.

Background: Pseudorabies virus (PRV), porcine parvovirus (PPV) and porcine circovirus 3 (PCV3) are common in swine farms in China. Single infection or co-infection with PRV, PPV and/or PCV3 was difficult to distinguish between their clinical symptoms and pathological changes. Therefore, a quick and accurate detection method is needed for epidemiological surveillance, disease management, import and export control.

Deletion of gE in Herpes Simplex Virus 1 Leads to Increased Extracellular Virus Production and Augmented Interferon Alpha Production by Peripheral Blood Mononuclear Cells.

Herpes simplex virus (HSV) in humans and pseudorabies virus (PRV) in pigs are both alphaherpesviruses. Plasmacytoid dendritic cells (pDCs) make part of the peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs) and are specialized in producing large amounts of antiviral type I interferon (IFN-I). IFN-I production by PBMCs in response to both HSV-1 and PRV can be virtually exclusively attributed to pDCs.

Insight into the Interaction Mechanism of Pseudorabies Virus Infection.

Biology (Basel)

December 2024

College of Veterinary Medicine, China Agricultural University, Beijing 100193, China.

The pseudorabies virus (PRV), also known as suid alphaherpesvirus 1 (SuAHV-1), has garnered significant attention due to its broad host range and the economic losses it incurs in the swine industry. This review aims to provide a comprehensive understanding of the intricate virus-host interactions during PRV infection, focusing on the evasion strategies of the virus against the host responses. We also summarize the mechanisms by which PRV manipulates the host cell machinery to facilitate its replication and spread, while simultaneously evading detection and clearance by the immune system.
