PG - 824-834 LID - 10.1111/1348-0421.12455 [doi] AB - In this study, a porcine reproductive and respiratory syndrome virus (PRRSV) that was isolated from a 9-week-old diseased pig on a farm in Japan with a high mortality rate during 2007-2008 was characterized. This unique isolate, designated as Jpn5-37, did not have a high nucleotide identity in open reading frame 5 against any Japanese isolates. Among all available type 2 PRRSV complete genome sequences, Jpn5-37 shared the highest nucleotide identity (93.6%) with virulent strain MN184A. The genomic characteristics of Jpn5-37 were highly conserved with respect to the virulent MN184A, including a continuous eight amino acid deletion in the nonstructural protein 2 region. Moreover, virus distribution, viremia and the gross and microscopic characteristics of lesions were investigated in pigs 10 days post-inoculation to elucidate the pathogenicity of the isolate. Intranasal inoculation was found to rapidly result in viremia and dissemination of the Jpn5-37 isolate to several tissues in a similar manner to EDRD1; however, the amounts of Jpn5-37 RNA in serum were significantly greater. Similarly, the quantities of Jpn5-37 viral RNA in all organs tested tended to be higher than with EDRD1 infection. Mean rectal temperatures were significantly higher in the Jpn5-37-inoculated than in the control group at 4 and 6 days post infection (dpi) and in the EDRD1-inoculated group at 6 and 8 dpi. These results suggest that the Jpn5-37 strain replicates and is more efficiently distributed to the organs than is EDRD1 under the same conditions.
