돼지의 주요 장염 유발 바이러스인 돼지 전염성 위장염 바이러스 (transmissible gastroenteritis virus; TGEV), 돼지 유행성 설사증 바이러스 (porcine epidemic diarrhea virus; PEDV), 돼지 칼리시 바이러스 (porcine enteric calicivirus; PECV), 돼지 로타바이러스 A 형과 C 형 (porcine rotavirus; PRY, group A and C)을 동시에 감별 진단 할 수 있는 신속하고 정확한 oligonucleotide microarray 진단법을 개발하였다. 이 진단법은 유리슬라이드에 각각의 바이러스에 특이적인 부위에서 제작된 oligonucleotide probe를 찍은 DNA chip을 제작하여 여기에 각각의 바이러스를 역전사하고 cy5-dCTP를 포함한 multiplex PCR을 수행한 다음 hybridization 하였다. 이후 hybridization 결과는 fluorescence scanner를 이용하여 확인하였다. 이 새로운 microarray system은 RT-PCR과 같은 기존의 진단방법보다 소량의 바이러스를 민감하게 검사할 수 있을 뿐 아니라 hybridization을 통해 검사결과의 정확성을 확인할 수 있었다. 따라서 본 연구에서 개발한 microarray system은 돼지의 설사 유발 바이러스를 진단하는데 매우 유용한 진단 방법임을 확인하였다.

Interferon (IFN)-λ plays an essential role in mucosal cells which exhibit strong antiviral activity. Lactobacillus plantarum (L. plantarum) has substantial application potential in the food and medical industries because of its probiotic properties. Alphacoronaviruses, especially porcine epidemic diarrhea virus (PEDV) and transmissible gastroenteritis virus (TGEV), cause high morbidity and mortality in piglets resulting in economic loss. Co-infection by these two viruses is becoming increasingly frequent. Therefore, it is particularly important to develop a new drug to prevent diarrhea infected with mixed viruses in piglets. In this study, we first constructed an anchored expression vector with CWA (C-terminal cell wall anchor) on L. plantarum. Second, we constructed two recombinant L. plantarum strains that anchored IFN-λ3 via pgsA (N-terminal transmembrane anchor) and CWA. Third, we demonstrated that both recombinant strains possess strong antiviral effects against coronavirus infection in the intestinal porcine epithelial cell line J2 (IPEC-J2). However, recombinant L. plantarum with the CWA anchor exhibited a more powerful antiviral effect than recombinant L. plantarum with pgsA. Consistent with this finding, Lb.plantarum-pSIP-409-IFN-λ3-CWA enhanced the expression levels of IFN-stimulated genes (ISGs) (ISG15, OASL, and Mx1) in IPEC-J2 cells more than did recombinant Lb.plantarum-pSIP-409-pgsA'-IFN-λ3. Our study verifies that recombinant L. plantarum inhibits PEDV and TGEV infection in IPEC-J2 cells, which may offer great potential for use as a novel oral antiviral agent in therapeutic applications for combating porcine epidemic diarrhea and transmissible gastroenteritis. This study is the first to show that recombinant L. plantarum suppresses PEDV and TGEV infection of IPEC-J2 cells.

Porcine epidemic diarrhea virus(PED), a member of Coronaviridea, is the etiological agent of enteropathogenic diarrhea in swine. The purpose of this study was to investigate genetic characteristic of PEDV isolated in Korea. Nucleocapsid(N) gene and membrane (M) gene of recent Korean PEDV strains isolated in 2001 were amplified, cloned, sequenced and analyzed. N gene of seven Korean PEDV field isolates bad 94.5% to 99.4% nucleotide and 92.4% to 99.4% amino acid sequence homology each other. Nucleotide and amino acid sequences of Korean field PEDVs were different from published foreign PEDVs, showing 95.1% to 98.0% nucleotide and 93.5% to 97.6% amino acid sequence homology. By phylogenetic tree analysis on based nucleotide sequences, PEDVs were clustered into four groups. By phylogenetic tree analysis based on amino acid sequences. PEDVs were clustered into five groups. M gene of our Korean PEDV field isolates had 99.6% to 100% nucleotide and 98.7% to 100% amino acid sequence homology each other. Nuclotide and amino acid sequences of Korean field PEDVs were different from published foreign PEDVs, showing 98.5% to 98.8% nucleotide and 97.3% to 97.8% amino acid sequence homology. By phylogenetic tree analysis based on nucleotide and amino acid sequences, PEDVs were clustered into two groups which were Korean PEDV isolate group and foreign PEDV isolate group.

Porcine epidemic diarrhea virus (PEDV) causes an acute and lethal watery diarrhea in piglets that is great economic losses to the swine country worldwide. The spike (S) glycoprotein is an important determinant for PEDV biological properties. In the present study, we determined the full-length S gene sequences of five Chung-nam PEDV field isolates collected in 2016. The S gene was amplified by RT-PCR, purificated, sequenced, analyzed and then compared with published sequences of other PEDV strains. 5 field strains share 98.5%~99.9% homologies with each other at the nucleotide sequence level and 96.7%~99.9% homologies with each other at the amino acids sequence level. Most field strains have nucleotide insertions, deletions and mutation regions, and show lower homologies (93.1~93.8%) with classical and vaccine strains, however higher homologies (99.1%~99.5%) with US PEDV isolates in 2013. By phylogenetic tree analysis based on nucleotide sequence, five PEDV field isolates were clustered into Genogroup 2b but differ genetically from the vaccine strains (SM-98 and DR-13).

Porcine epidemic diarrhea virus (PEDV) causes acute enteritis in pigs of all ages and is often fatal for neonates. In order to develop sweetpotato plants expressing PEDV antigen, we constructed the vector expressing spike gene of PEDV under the control of sweetpotato sporamin promoter or constitutive CaMV 35S promoter. The spike protein region of PEDV was synthesized by PCR and linked to each promoter, Transgenic sweetpotato [Ipomoea batatas (L.) Lam. cv. Yulmi] plants were developed from embryogenic calli following Agrobacterium tumefaciens-mediated transformation. The co-cultured embryogenic calli transferred to selective MS medium containing 1 mg/L 2,4-D, 100 mg/L kanamycin, and 400 mg/L claforan. These embryogenic calli were subcultured to the same selection medium at 3 weeks interval. Kanamycin-resistant calli transferred to hormone-free MS medium with kanamycin gave rise to somatic embryos and then converted into plantlets in the same medium. Southern blot analysis confirmed that the spike gene of PEDV was inserted into the genome of the sweetpotato plants. RT-PCR revealed that the spike gene of PEDV was highly expressed in transgenic sweetpotato plants.

Intestinal infections are common in growing pigs and can be caused by multiple pathogens, environmental and management factors [1]. Among the most important viruses in swine enteritis are porcine epidemic diarrhea virus (PEDV), transmissible gastroenteritis virus (TGEV), porcine enteric calicivirus (PECV), porcine group A rotavirus (PRV gp A) and bacteria are Escherichia coli and Salmonella spp. and protozoa is Isospora suis [1]. The DNA chip system can serve as a powerful tool that can be utilized for simultaneous detection of specific pathogenic bacteria strains and viruses [2,3]. The combination of PCR and DNA chip technology will provide a novel method for the detection of porcine enteric pathogens thus revolutionize the diagnosis and management of the disease. The aim of this study is to develop DNA chip system for the rapid and reliable detection of five major porcine enteric pathogens based on oligonucleotide DNA chip hybridization. (omitted)

Porcine transmissible gastroenteritis (TGE) has been a significant cause of economic losses in pig farming industry since 1950s. Although transmissible gastroenteritis virus (TGEV) has declined in recent years, it should not be excluded because of its characteristics; the frequency of gene mutation, the mortality in piglets, and the possibility for sudden incidence. Therefore, the herd-level monitoring of the virus is important to prevent further circulation of TGE. The aim of this study is to develop a large-scale sandwich enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) with high specificity to rapidly detect TGEV in feces by using monoclonal antibodies (Mabs). The TGEV specific Mabs were produced in hybridoma cells. Among the Mabs belonged to the IgG class developed by this study, the final selected 8H6, 1B7, 4G3, and 1F8 were identified to have the neutralization ability against TGEV. The sandwich ELISA was established using 8H6 as a reporter antibody and 1B7 and the reported 5C8 as a capture antibody. The developed sandwich ELISA was able to distinguish TGEV from other pathogenic diarrheal agents (porcine rotavirus, porcine reovirus, porcine epidemic diarrhea virus (PEDV), E. coli, and C. perfringens) in tissue culture as well as fecal samples. And the detection rate of TGEV in feces was 80% compared with RT-PCR. The results suggested that the developed sandwich ELISA may be useful in the herd-level monitoring for effective preventive measures due to the early diagnosis of TGEV using a large amount of samples.
