Genetic characteristics associated with the virulence of porcine epidemic diarrhea virus (PEDV) with a naturally occurring truncated ORF3 gene
2024
Overview
Porcine epidemic diarrhea virus (PEDV) has emerged in American countries, and it has reemerged in Asia and Europe, causing significant economic losses to the pig industry worldwide. In the present study, the 17GXCZ-1ORF3d strain, which has a naturally large deletion at the 172–554 bp position of the ORF3 gene, together with the 17GXCZ-1ORF3c strain, was serially propagated in Vero cells for up to 120 passages. The adaptability of the two strains gradually increased through serial passages in vitro. Genetic variation analysis of the variants of the two strains from different generations revealed that the naturally truncated ORF3 gene in the 17GXCZ-1ORF3d variants was stably inherited. Furthermore, the survival, viral shedding and histopathological lesions following inoculation of piglets demonstrated that the virulence of 17GXCZ-1ORF3d-P120 was significantly attenuated. These results indicate that the naturally truncated ORF3 gene may accelerate the attenuation of virulence and is involved in PEDV virulence together with mutations in other structural genes. Importantly, immunization of sows with G2b 17GXCZ-1ORF3d-P120 increased PEDV-specific IgG and IgA antibody levels in piglets and conferred partial passive protection against heterologous G2a PEDV strains. Our findings suggest that an attenuated strain with a truncated ORF3 gene may be a promising candidate for protection against PEDV.
