First report of canine bufavirus in India.

ABSTRACT: Canine bufavirus (CBuV), a novel protoparvovirus of dogs that is associated with enteric and respiratory symptoms, has been reported only in Italy and China. The enteric prevalence of CBuV in India was investigated, and the nearly complete genome sequence (4292 bp) was amplified and reconstructed for one strain. A nucleotide sequence alignment indicated 93.42-98.81% identity to the other available CBuV sequences and 70.88-73.39% and 54.4-54.8% identity to human bufavirus and canine parvovirus 2 (CPV-2), respectively. The current strain is most closely related to Chinese CBuV strains, which together form an Asian lineage. This first report of the prevalence of CBuV in India emphasizes the need for further epidemiological surveillance.

Investigation of canine chaphamaparvovirus, canine bufavirus, and canine adenovirus in dogs with diarrhea: First report of novel canine bufavirus in Turkey.

Project description: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.

First detection and genetic characterization of canine bufavirus in domestic dogs, Thailand.

Project description:Canine bufavirus (CBuV) was reported in domestic dogs worldwide. We conducted a survey of canine bufavirus in domestic dogs in Thailand from September 2016 to October 2022. Rectal swab samples (n = 531) were collected from asymptomatic dogs and dogs with gastroenteritis signs. The samples were tested for CBuV using PCR with specific primers to the VP1/VP2 gene, and 9.42% (50/531) was CBuV positive. Our findings showed that CBuVs could be detected in both symptomatic and healthy dogs. The Thai CBuVs were found in dogs from different age groups, with a significant presence in those under 1 year (12.60%) and dogs aged 1-5 years (7.34%) (p < 0.05), suggesting a high prevalence of Thai CBuVs in dogs under 5 years of age. We performed complete genome sequencing (n = 15) and partial VP1/VP2 sequencing (n = 5) of Thai CBuVs. Genetic and phylogenetic analyses showed that whole genomes of Thai CBuVs were closely related to Chinese and Italian CBuVs, suggesting the possible origin of Thai CBuVs. The analysis of VP1 and VP2 genes in Thai CBuVs showed that 18 of them were placed in subgroup A, while only 2 belonged to subgroup B. This study is the first to report the detection and genetic characterization of CBuVs in domestic dogs in Thailand. Additionally, surveillance and genetic characterization of CBuVs in domestic animals should be further investigated on a larger scale to elucidate the dynamic, evolution, and distribution of CBuVs.

First report and genetic diversity of porcine bufavirus in China.

Project description:BackgroundBufavirus is a newly discovered zoonotic virus reported in numerous mammals and humans. However, the epidemiological and genetic characteristics of porcine bufaviruses (PBuVs) in China remain unclear.MethodsTo detect PBuVs in China, 384 samples (92 fecal and 292 serum specimens) were collected from 2017 to 2018, covering six provinces in China, and were evaluated by nested PCR. Further, the positive samples from different provinces were selected to obtain the complete genome of Chinese PBuVs.ResultsThe prevalence rate of PBuV was 16.7% in Chinese domestic pigs in the Guangdong, Guangxi, Fujian, Jiangxi, Anhui, and Henan provinces. Additionally, the positive rate of fecal specimens was higher than that of the serum samples. Next, we sequenced nine near-complete genomes of Chinese field PBuV strains from different provinces. Homology and phylogenetic analyses indicated that Chinese PBuVs have high genetic variation (93.3-99.2%), showed higher nucleotide identity with an Austrian PBuV strain (KU867071.1), and developed into different branches within the same cluster.ConclusionTo our knowledge, this is the first report on PBuV in China, expanding the geographic boundaries of PBuV circulation. Our data demonstrate that PBuVs are widely distributed in the six Chinese provinces. Moreover, these Chinese PBuVs exhibit genetic variation and continuous evolution characteristics. Taken together, our findings provide a foundation for future studies on bufaviruses.

Genetic and phylogenetic analysis of canine bufavirus from Anhui Province, Eastern China.

Project description:Bufavirus is a novel virus associated with canine gastroenteritis. Three strains of bufavirus were first detected in dog feces collected from Anhui province in Eastern China. The near-complete genome sequences were amplified. Sequence alignment showed 98.3-99.5% homology between the three bufavirus strains and reference strains. Phylogenetic analysis showed the distributed viruses forming a cluster of close relationships. Selective pressure analysis of the VP2 region indicated that the canine bufavirus (CBuV) was mainly subject to negative selection during evolution. The negative selection site was located on the residue of B-cell epitopes, indicating minimal change to the virus's immunogenicity. Since this is the first report of CBuV circulating in Anhui Province, this study will provide further understanding of the phylogenetic and molecular characteristics of CBuV and serve as a reference for prevention and vaccine development.

First Report of Autochthonous Canine Leishmaniasis in Hong Kong.

Project description:Canine leishmaniasis is a zoonotic disease caused by Leishmania infantum; transmitted by the bite of phlebotomine sand flies. Leishmania infantum amastigotes were identified by cytology from a locally born Hong Kong dog exhibiting nasal, cutaneous, and systemic disease who was part of a kennel of eight dogs. All eight kennel dogs were subsequently tested serologically by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) and by polymerase chain reaction (PCR) followed by DNA sequencing for L. infantum infection. The local dog was seropositive and blood and splenic tissue were PCR positive for L. infantum whilst the other kennel dogs were negative on serology and PCR. Autochthonous transmission was suspected for the local dog as Hong Kong lacks known vectors of L. infantum. Either vertical transmission from the deceased dam who had previously died with disease suspicious for leishmaniasis or horizontal transmission from a second non-locally born kennel dog who had been diagnosed previously with leishmaniasis was possible. This is the first recorded autochthonous case of canine leishmaniasis in Hong Kong. Leishmaniasis should be considered as a differential for cutaneous or systemic illness in local untraveled dogs in Hong Kong. In addition, as dogs serve as L. infantum reservoirs for human infection attention should be paid to the possibility of leishmaniasis emerging in Hong Kong.

Operational Tolerance after Liver Transplantation: First Report from India.

Project description:Operational tolerance after liver transplantation is an ideal goal to avoid long-term morbidities associated with chronic immunosuppressive medication use. It is achievable in a highly selected group of post-transplant recipients but requires long-term follow-up and strict monitoring. We hereby report a post-transplant case who achieved spontaneous operational tolerance after inadvertent immunosuppression withdrawal.

Vaccine-induced thrombotic thrombocytopenia (VITT): first report from India.

Project description:BackgroundVaccine-induced thrombotic thrombocytopenia (VITT) is a rare but devastating adverse event following adenoviral vector-based vaccinations for COVID-19, resulting in thrombosis, especially of the cerebral and splanchnic vasculature. Despite the progress in laboratory techniques for early diagnosis, VITT remains a clinical diagnosis supplemented by coagulation studies. We report on VITT for the first time from India.CaseWe describe cortical venous sinus thrombosis and intracerebral bleed associated with severe thrombocytopenia in two young men who had no other contributory cause besides a recent ChAdOx1 nCoV-19 vaccination. The diagnosis was supported with PF-4 antibodies in one patient. The second patient's test could not be processed to technical limitations. Both patients were treated with IVIG at 1 g/kg for 2 days and anticoagulation (Apixaban). One patient fully recovered with no residual deficits, and the other is under treatment and recovering.ConclusionVITT can cause devastating fatality and morbidity in otherwise healthy patients via potential immune-mediated effects. Clinicians should have a high suspicion index and treat VITT in the appropriate setting even if the PF-4 antibody testing by ELISA is unavailable or delayed. Though counterintuitive, clinicians must not delay the administration of non-heparin anticoagulation, IVIG and restrict platelet transfusion even in the presence of intracerebral haemorrhage.

First report of canine ocular thelaziosis in the Republic of Moldova.

Project description:BackgroundCountries of eastern Europe are considered, due to several risk factors, more vulnerable to infections with newly (re)emerging pathogens. During the last decade, in several European countries, reports of autochthonous cases of ocular thelaziosis due to Thelazia callipaeda have been published, posing a great concern from both veterinary and public health perspective. However, in the Republic of Moldova only limited epidemiological data are available regarding zoonotic vector-borne pathogens and, until now, no data exist on the zoonotic nematode T. callipaeda.MethodsIn September 2018, an 11-year-old dog, mixed-breed, intact male was referred to a private veterinary clinic from Chișinău, Republic of Moldova, with a history of 2 weeks of an ocular condition affecting the right eye. The ophthalmological exam revealed the presence of nematode parasites in the conjunctival sac and under the third eyelid. The collected parasites were identified by morphological techniques and molecular analysis.ResultsA total of 7 nematodes were collected, and 5 females and 2 males of T. callipaeda were identified morphologically. The BLAST analysis confirmed the low genetic variability of this parasite in Europe. The travel history of the patient allowed us to confirm the autochthonous character of the case.ConclusionsTo the best of our knowledge, this is the first report of thelaziosis in dogs from the Republic of Moldova, which confirms the spreading trend of T. callipaeda and the existence of an autochthonous transmission cycle of this zoonotic parasite in the country.
