Porcine reproductive and respiratory syndrome virus (PRRSV) can spread in between pigs via contact and airborne route. It was shown before that the highly pathogenic PRRSV strain Lena was able to replicate 10-100 times more in the nasal mucosa compared to the low pathogenic PRRSV strain LV. In this work, the replication characteristics of four type 1 (LV, 07V063, 08VA, 13V091), three type 2 (VR2332, MN-184, VN) and two attenuated (MLV-DV, MLV-VR2332) PRRSV strains were studied. After 72hpi, mean virus titers reached 10(4.5-4.8) TCID50/ml for LV and 08VA, 10(5.2-5.4) TCID50/ml for VR2332 and Lena, and 10(5.8-6.3) TCID50/ml for 07V063, 13V091, MN-184 and VN strains, whereas attenuated strains remained below detection limit. The mean number of PRRSV-positive cells/mm(2) at 72hpi was 1.1 and 1.3 for the attenuated strains and LV, 13.3 for 08VA, 23.5 and 29.3 for VR2332 and 07063, 31.1 and 33.8 for 13V091 and Lena, and, 39.1 and 59.2 for MN-184 and VN respectively. All the LV and MLV-LV infected cells were Sn(+), whereas all other strains also infected Sn(-) macrophages. In conclusion, (i) based on the virus shedding in the respiratory explants, PRRSV strains can be categorized as poor (MLV-DV, MLV-VR2332, LV, 08VA), moderate (Lena, VR2332) and strong (07V063, 13V091, MN-184, VN) secretors, and (ii) based on the number of infected cells isolates can be categorized as low (MLV-DV, MLV-VR2332, LV), moderately (08VA, VR2332), highly (07V063, Lena, 13V091) and hyper (MN-184, VN) virulent in the nasal mucosa.

Porcine reproductive and respiratory syndrome (PRRS) is an endemic disease affecting the swine industry. The disease is caused by the PRRS virus (PRRSV). Despite extensive biosecurity and control measures, the persistence and seasonality of the virus have raised questions about the virus's environmental dynamics during the fall season when the yearly epidemic onset begins and when crop harvesting and manure incorporation into the field occur.

Since the first isolation of the porcine reproductive and respiratory syndrome virus 1 (PRRSV-1) BJEU06-1 strain from a Beijing pig farm in 2006, more and more PRRSV-1 isolates have been identified in China. In this study, we performed the routine detection of PRRSV-1 using 1521 clinical samples collected in 12 provinces/cities from February 2022 to May 2024. Only three lung samples from severely diseased piglets collected in January 2024 were detected as PRRSV-1-positive (0.

As an essential type of vaccine, live attenuated vaccines (LAVs) play a crucial role in animal disease prevention and control. Nevertheless, developing LAVs faces the challenge of balancing safety and efficacy. Understanding the mechanisms animal viruses use to antagonize host antiviral innate immunity may help to precisely regulate vaccine strains and maintain strong immunogenicity while reducing their pathogenicity.

Porcine reproductive and respiratory syndrome virus (PRRSV) causes reproductive failure in sows and respiratory disease in growing pigs, leading to significant economic losses worldwide. Due to the constant mutation and recombination, PRRSV exhibits significant genetic diversity, the general detection of all PRRSV-2 and PRRSV-1 strains is thus needed. In our study, four monoclonal antibodies (mAbs) against PRRSV nucleocapsid (N) protein were generated and the precise and novel B cell epitopes (KPHF and HHTVR) were identified.

Existing genetic classification systems for porcine reproductive and respiratory syndrome virus type 2 (PRRSV-2), such as restriction fragment length polymorphisms and sub-lineages, are unreliable indicators of close genetic relatedness or lack sufficient resolution for epidemiological monitoring routinely conducted by veterinarians. Here, we outline a fine-scale classification system for PRRSV-2 genetic variants in the United States. Based on >25,000 U.
