RESUMO

African swine fever (ASF) was introduced into the Eastern European Union in 2014 and led to considerable mortality among wild boar. In contrast, unexpected high antibody prevalence was reported in hunted wild boar in north-eastern Estonia. One of the causative virus strains was recently characterized. While it still showed rather high virulence in the majority of experimentally infected animals, one animal survived and recovered completely. Here, we report on the follow-up characterization of the isolate obtained from the survivor in the acute phase of infection. As a first step, three in vivo experiments were performed with different types of pigs: twelve minipigs (trial A), five domestic pigs (trial B), and five wild boar (trial C) were inoculated. 75% of the minipigs and all domestic pigs recovered after an acute course of disease. However, all wild boar succumbed to infection within 17 days. Representative samples were sequenced using NGS-technologies, and whole-genomes were compared to ASFV "Georgia 2007/1". The alignments indicated a deletion of 14560 base pairs at the 5' end, and genome reorganization by duplication. The characteristic deletion was confirmed in all trial samples and local field samples. In conclusion, an ASFV variant was found in Estonia that showed reduced virulence.

RESUMO

Classical swine fever (CSF) remains one of the most important viral diseases that impact on sustainable pig production world wide. To control the disease in either endemic situations or in case of large, high-impact contingencies, safe and highly efficacious live attenuated vaccines exist since decades. However, until recently, the available live vaccines did not allow a serological marker concept that would be important to circumvent long-term trade restrictions. Recently, a new live attenuated marker vaccine, Suvaxyn® CSF Marker (Zoetis), was licensed by the European Medicines Agency (EMA). To supplement the data that are necessary for the design of appropriate vaccination strategies, a trial was carried out with single "emergency-type" vaccination of two pregnant sows. Focus was laid on the kinetics of maternally derived antibodies (MDA) in the screening assays of their offspring that would be used in case of a CSF outbreaks, i.e. CSFV E2 and Erns antibody ELISA. Neutralization peroxidase linked antibody assays were carried out to allow a rough estimate of protection. Upon vaccination with Suvaxyn® CSF Marker 21days before farrowing, MDAs were measurable in all piglets born to the vaccinated sows. The E2 ELISA reactivities showed an almost linear decrease over 10 weeks after which all piglets were tested negative in the ELISA again. No problems were observed in DIVA assays (Erns antibodies) when heat-inactivated sera were used. The protective effect of MDA needs further investigations as the titers were found to be lower than reported for C-strain vaccines.
