Genetic characterization of porcine circovirus-2 field isolates from PMWS pigs
Young S. Lyoo,YoungS.Lyoo 대한수의학회 2002 Journal of Veterinary Science Vol.3 No.1
PMWS is a new emerging disease in swine herdsworldwide. Field isolates of PCV-2, a putative majorcausative agent of PMWS, were isolated and geneticalycharacterized. Viral genome of two field isolates(PC201DJ and PC201SS) from pigs showing typicalPMWS was equenced. The nucleotide sequence homologywith other PCV-2 isolates was ranging from 95% to99% in complete viral genomic sequence. The highlywas identical to that of other PCV-2 isolates. Todetermine the genetic heterogeneity of PCV-2 isolates,t h e p h y l o g e n e t i c t r e e b a s e d o n t h e c o m p l e t e g e n o m eof PCV-2 isolates were constructed. Two PCV-2 fieldisolates were closely related to Canadian isolates ofPCV-2. PCV-2 isolated from field may have an originof North America nd is posibly originated fromimportation of breding stocks. The result indicatesthat although the genome of PCV-2 is relatively stablein general, minor genetic variations exist amongPCV-2 isolates from the diferent geographic locations.important implication for genetic characteristics ofPCV-2 infection. Thre major imunorelevant epitopesof capsid protein showed variations in amino acidsequences. Also, the variance of amino acid sequencein antigenic epitope xisted betwen two KoreanPCV-2 isolates.

<P>The pathology of Parkinson's disease (PD) is not confined to the nigrostriatal dopaminergic pathway, but also involves widespread cerebral cortical areas. Such non-nigrostriatal lesions may contribute to disabling dopa-resistant parkinsonian motor deficits. We performed cortical thickness analysis to identify cerebral cortical brain areas in which thickness correlates with the severity of parkinsonian motor deficits. We performed T1-weighted brain magnetic resonance imaging studies in 142 PD patients. Motor scores on the Unified Parkinson's Disease Rating Scale (UPDRS) were measured, and subscores were calculated for bradykinesia, rigidity, tremor, and axial motor deficits. Using FreeSurfer software, we studied cortical areas in which thickness correlates with disease duration or the severity of parkinsonian motor deficits. The cortical thickness of the parieto-temporal association cortex, including the inferior parietal and posterior parietal cortices, showed a negative correlation with disease duration, total UPDRS motor score, and UPDRS subscores for bradykinesia and axial motor deficits. We found no cortical areas in which thickness correlated with subscores for tremor and rigidity. In addition to nigrostriatal dopaminergic deficit, progressive thinning of the parieto-temporal sensory association cortices related to disease duration seems to be related in part to the exacerbation of bradykinesia and the axial motor symptoms of PD.</P>

Preclinical studies suggest that lithium may exert neurotrophic effects that counteract pathological processes in the brain of patients with bipolar disorder (BD). To describe and compare the course and magnitude of gray matter volume changes in patients with BD who are treated with lithium or valproic acid (VPA) compared to healthy comparison subjects, and to assess clinical relationships to gray matter volume changes induced by lithium in patients with BD, we conducted longitudinal brain imaging and clinical evaluations of treatment response in 22 mood-stabilizing and antipsychotic medications-naive patients with BD who were randomly assigned to either lithium or VPA treatment after baseline assessment. Fourteen healthy comparison subjects did not take any psychotropic medications during follow-up. Longitudinal data analyses of 93 serial magnetic resonance images revealed lithium-induced increases in gray matter volume, which peaked at week 10–12 and were maintained through 16 weeks of treatment. This increase was associated with positive clinical response. In contrast, VPA-treated patients with BD or healthy comparison subjects did not show gray matter volume changes over time. Results suggest that lithium induces sustained increases in cerebral gray matter volume in patients with BD and that these changes are related to the therapeutic efficacy of lithium.

Porcine pneumonia is caused by Pasturella multocida and Actinobacillus pleuropneumoniae. To identify a potent drug for antipneumonia therapy, several herbal compounds showing antibacterial effects were screened, and it was found that a methanol extract of Coptidis rhizoma root stem exhibited activity against both pneumonia-causing bacteria. Using an activity-guided fragmentation procedure, an isoquinoline alkaloid was isolated which would be responsible for the antibacterial activities against P. multocida and A. pleuropneumoniae.
Virulence of a novel reassortant canine H3N2 influenza virus in ferret, dog and mouse models

<P>An outbreak of a canine influenza virus (CIV) H3N2 reassortant derived from pandemic (pdm) H1N1 and CIV H3N2 in companion animals has underscored the urgent need to monitor CIV infections for potential zoonotic transmission of influenza viruses to humans. In this study, we assessed the virulence of a novel CIV H3N2 reassortant, VC378, which was obtained from a dog that was coinfected with pdm H1N1 and CIV H3N2, in ferrets, dogs, and mice. Significantly enhanced virulence of VC378 was demonstrated in mice, although the transmissibility and pathogenicity of VC378 were similar to those of classical H3N2 in ferrets and dogs. This is notable because mice inoculated with an equivalent dose of classical CIV H3N2 showed no clinical signs and no lethality. We found that the PA and NS gene segments of VC378 were introduced from pdmH1N1, and these genes included the amino acid substitutions PA-P224S and NS-I123V, which were previously found to be associated with increased virulence in mice. Thus, we speculate that the natural reassortment between pdm H1N1 and CIV H3N2 can confer virulence and that continuous surveillance is needed to monitor the evolution of CIV in companion animals.</P>

New emerging post weaning multisystemic wasting syndrome (PMWS) threatening swine industry worldwide and investigation of the etiological agent is underway. The porcine circovirus (PCV) consistently identified from PMWS pigs and research result indicate that there is strong relationship between PCV and PMWS. Fauns with PMWS submitted pigs suffered from various PMWS typical signs and necropsy finding showed lymph node anomalies. The PCV DNA was amplified from inguinal lymph node collected from pigs with PMWS. PCV specific primers were successfully amplified PCV DNAs and were able to differentiate PCV type I and II. We have identified noble PCV virus with genetic variation. The virus showed insertion of the nucleic acid at the 5' of the genome but did not have PCR product with primer set corresponding to PCV type II virus.

The Transcendentalist Controversy in the mid 19th century in America is a conflict in the Unitarian sect. The Unitarians who called themselves liberals challenged the authority of Christianity with the spirit of free inquiry and free expression. Among them more radical Transcendentalist ministers denied the authority of Jesus, the Bible and the church by assailing the miracles in the Bible which were based on the authority of "sense" of John Locke's empiricism. Their new epistemological basis was "intuition" which was originated from German idealism, especially that of Kant. Even though Unitarians had successfully protected their version of Christianity from Theodore Parker's Absolute Religion, it has eventually flowed into Parker's direction to the blink of losing the characteristics of Christianity. It seems to be a sect of humanism. Thus, the main concern will be the matter of its survival as religion. However, there are many positive contributions of the Unitarian tradition to the civilization of America. It is liberalization and democratization in religion with the spirit of Yankee. It contributed to the flowering of American literature and many other fields. It also shows a possibility of the communication between Christianity and eastern religions, especially Zen Buddhism.
