  • 국제양돈수의학회(International Pig Veterinary Society ; I.P.V.S) 제14차 총회 및 학술대회가 1996년 7월 7일부터 11일까지 이태리 중북부의 대학도시 볼로냐(Bologna, Italy)에서 개최되었다. I.P.V.S.는 1969년에 영국의 캠브리지 (Cambridge, United Kingdom)에서 창립된 이래 1996년 현재 53개 회원국 1,700 여명의 회원을 확보하고 있으며, 세계 각국의 양돈과 수의학에 관심을 가지고 있는 학자, 생산자 그리고 관련업계 인사들의 학술$\cdot$기술 정보교류와 협력을 목적으로 매 2년마다 세계 주요도시를 순회 하면서 개최되고 있다. 앞으로 2년후(1998년도)에는 I.P.V.S.의 탄생국인 영국의 버밍햄(Birmingham, United Kingdom)에서 제 15차 총회 및 학술대회를 개최할 예정이며 2000년대에는 시드니 올림픽과 때를 맞추어 호주의 멜보른(Melboume, Australia)에서 제16차 총회를 개최하기로 결정되어 있다. 금년(1996년도) I.P.V.S 총회에는 우리나라에서 30개 기관/업체로부터 50여명이 참여한 바 있으며 총 27편 (구두 9편, 포스터 18편)의 학술논문을 발표하는 등 눈부신 활약을 보인 바 있다. 금년도 I.P.V.S. 총회의 특징은 돼지의 전염성 질병중 근래에 우리나라에서도 문제시 되고 있는 '돼지 생식기 호흡기 중후군 (Porcine Reproductive and Respiratory Syndrome ; PRRS)'이 세계적인 관심의 대상이었으며, 이태리 양돈병리축산학회 (Societa Italiana di Patologia ed Allevamento dei Suini ; S.I.P.A.S) 주관으로 '돼지 적리 (Swine Dysentery)'에 관한 Satellite Symposium이 개최되었다는 점이다. WTO 이래 어려워지고만 있는 우리나라 축산업 분야중 그래도 비젼이 보이는 양돈산업과 관련하여, I.P.V.S.를 통하여 우리나라 수의업무의 세계화의 길을 찾아보고자, 1 국제양돈수의학회(I.P.V.S)의 역사 (양돈과 수의업무 전문가의 새로운 만남의 장), 2 I.P.V.S.에의 참여(제13차 방콕대회), 3 한국 수의사의 활약(제14차 볼로냐대회), 4 세계화의 길(제15차 버밍햄대회, 제16차 멜보른대회), 5 국내양돈의 문제와 우리가 해야할 일(수의업무 세계화의 길을 찾자)등의 순으로 적어보고자 한다.

  • This study was conducted to survey the farm which suffered from disease similar to classical swine fever(CSF) in Gyeongbuk province. Clinical signs appeared first in a few number of growing pigs which showed specific signs of diarrhea, depression, sleepiness, and reluctance to get up or to eat. Younger piglets may have appeared chilled, shiver and huddle together. As the disease progresses the affected pig's skin went red and purple. In histopathological signs, there were many haemorrhages throughout the body and larger haemorrhages in some organs such as lymph nodes. And there is a precipitous fall in the number of circulating leukocytes in the blood. In spite of insisting of farmer which did not vaccinate to classical swine fever, significant antibody production was detected in these affected pigs at enzyme-linked immuonsorbent assay. According to the above results at first glance, these affected pig suspected with CSF in clinical signs and histopathological lesions only. Because the symptoms and post-mortem picture were very similar to CSF, these false positive results would have been dangerous to diagnostician. But by reverse transcriptase polymerase chain reaction(RT-PCR) and comparative nucleotide sequence analysis, the disease was correctly diagnosed with post-weaning multisystemic wasting syndrome(PMWS) and porcine reproductive and respiratory syndrome(PRRS) compoundly. And the antigen which were detected the lesion similar to CSF virus, was confirmed with LOM vaccine strain of CSF. In most national CSF eradication program and in countries which are free of the CSF virus, vaccination against CSF is not practiced and generally is not allowed. But now in Korea, routine vaccination is practiced because of outbreaking the CSF repeatedly. When CSF is diagnosed the whole herd and other in contact animal are slaughtered continuously.

  • Porcine reproductive and respiratory syndrome (PRRS) is economically the most important and challenging disease in swine industries worldwide and caused by PRRS virus (PRRSV). Previous studies reported that pigs with heterozygous genotypes in the guanylate-binding proteins (GBP1 and GBP5) exhibited increased resistance against PRRSV infection. The present study was conducted to produce higher numbers of the heterozygous pigs based on the PRRS resistant polymorphisms found in GBP1 (GBP1E2 and WUR) and GBP5, and evaluate the resistance of heterozygous pigs against challenge with a type 2 PRRSV (JA142) in comparison with homozygous pigs. In the challenge study, 12, 4 week-old PRRSV-negative piglets were selected based on the genotypes of the 3 polymorphisms (GBP1E2, WUR and GBP5). Among them, 8 piglets [homozygous (n=4) and heterozygous (n=4)] were challenged with JA142 and kept in the same room, and the remaining 4 piglets were kept separately as a negative control. In results, the sperms collected from the boars of GBP1E2-GG genotype produced approximately 28~41% higher numbers of heterozygous piglets as compared with those from the boars of GBP1E2-AG genotype. In the challenge study, we found that heterozygous piglets showed the significantly lower levels of viremia than homozygous piglets at 14, 21 and 28 dpc. Consistently, these heterozygous piglets also exhibited significantly higher ADWG than homozygous piglets. Therefore, in the current study, selection of boars based on SNP markers could increase the production of PRRS resistant piglets and the PRRS resistant pigs were found to be more resistant to PRRSV infection.

  • In this study, we have developed 3D8 scFv transgenic pig (TG) by microinjection of fertilized one-cell pig zygotes (2.17%). The effect of 3D8 scFv TG on porcine reproductive and respiratory syndrome virus (PRRSV) resistance were evaluated through PRRSV VR2332 (1×103 TCID50/mL) challenge and transmission experiments. As a result, the average daily weight gain (ADWG) of TG increased compared to the wild type pigs (WT) in PRRSV challenge groups and the serum viremia levels of the TG was significantly lower than of WT on the 7 day and 21 day after infection, meaning that the viral shedding was suppressed by 3D8 scFv expression. These results suggest that the expression of 3D8 scFv in pig could suppress spreading of infected virus to pigs sharing a room.
