AI Article Synopsis

  • Viral enteritis significantly impacts the mortality rate of dogs under 6 months old, prompting a study on various viral pathogens in 62 diarrheal dogs.
  • The study found canine bufavirus (CBuV) in 2 dogs and canine chaphamaparvovirus (CaChPV) in 1 dog, with one also testing positive for three parvoviruses, while all were negative for canine adenovirus.
  • This research identified new strains of CBuV and CaChPV in Turkey, contributing important insights to the molecular epidemiology and understanding of enteric diseases in dogs.

Article Abstract

Viral enteritis is a significant cause of death among dogs younger than 6 months. In this study, the presence of canine chaphamaparvovirus (CaChPV), canine bufavirus (CBuV), and canine adenovirus (CAdV) was investigated in 62 diarrheal dogs previously tested for other viral pathogens (canine parvovirus type 2, canine coronavirus, and canine circovirus). CBuV was detected in two dogs (3.22%) and CaChPV in one dog (1.61%). One dog tested positive for three parvoviruses (CPV-2b, CBuV, and CaChPV). All dogs tested negative to CAdV-1/CAdV-2. A long genome fragment of one of the two identified CBuVs and of the CaChPV was obtained and analyzed. New Turkish CBuVs had high identity rates (96%-98% nt; 97%-98% aa) with some Italian CBuV strains (CaBuV/9AS/2005/ITA and CaBuV/35/2016/ITA). The phylogenetic analysis powerfully demonstrated that these viruses belonged to a novel genotype (genotype 2). A part of the genome ChPV-TR-2021-19 revealed high identity rates (> 98% nt and > 99% aa) with some Canadian CaChPV strains (NWT-W88 and NWT-W171) and the Italian CaChPV strain Te/37OVUD/2019/IT. This study is the first report on the detection of CBuV-2 and the concomitant presence of three canine parvoviruses in Turkey. The obtained data will contribute to the molecular epidemiology and the role in the etiology of enteric disease of new parvoviruses.

Henan Provincial Engineering Laboratory of Insects Bio-reactor, Henan Provincial Engineering, and Technology Center of Health Products for Livestock and Poultry, Henan Provincial Engineering and Technology Center of Animal Disease Diagnosis and Integrated Control, Nanyang Normal University, Nanyang 473061, PR China.

Article Synopsis
  • Bufavirus (BuV) and its canine counterpart (CBuV) were investigated through samples from dogs with diarrhea in China, resulting in 14 positive detections among 622 anal swabs taken from 2018 to 2022.
  • The study involved sequencing the genomes of these strains and revealed potential recombination events with strains from Hungary and Italy, highlighting a genetic link.
  • It also found that while the CBuVs are conserved in a certain protein, there are significant mutations in another protein that might affect vaccine development and understanding of the virus's evolution.

Faculty of Veterinary Science, Center of Excellence for Emerging and Re-Emerging Infectious Diseases in Animals, Chulalongkorn University, Bangkok, Thailand.

Article Synopsis
  • Canine bufavirus (CBuV) was found in domestic dogs in Thailand, with a 9.42% positivity rate in 531 rectal swabs collected from both healthy dogs and those showing gastroenteritis symptoms.
  • The virus was particularly prevalent in younger dogs, especially those under 1 year old, indicating a need for monitoring in this age group.
  • This study is the first to identify and genetically characterize CBuVs in Thailand, showing similarities with strains from China and Italy, and emphasizes the necessity for broader research on CBuVs in domestic animals.

Canine bufavirus (CBuV) or , a nonenveloped DNA virus belonging to the genus , family , has been identified in dogs with respiratory and enteric diseases. Although CBuV detection has been reported in multiple countries, descriptions of pathologic findings associated with infection have not yet been provided. In this study, the authors necropsied 14 dogs (12 puppies and 2 adult dogs) from a breeding colony that died during multiple outbreaks of respiratory diseases.

  • Some parvoviruses found in dogs can potentially infect various species, with recent discoveries of canine parvoviruses leading to limited knowledge about their host ranges.
  • A study in Newfoundland and Labrador found specific strains of canine bocavirus, bufavirus, cachavirus, and canine parvovirus type 2 in free-roaming dogs and local wildlife, indicating distinct viral populations within these species.
  • The research revealed genetic similarities between viruses in domestic dogs and coyotes, suggesting possible viral transmission between wild and domestic canids, and highlighted the ongoing presence of older CPV-2 strains in the area that had not been seen since the 1990s.
