RESUMO
This study explored the transcriptome of lamb testis cells infected with sheeppox virus (SPPV) wild strain (WS) and vaccine strain (VS) at an immediate-early time. Most of the differentially expressed genes (DEGs) and differentially expressed highly connected (DEHC) gene network were found to be involved in SPPV-VS infection compared to SPPV-WS. Further, the signaling pathways were mostly involved in SPPV-VS infection than SPPV-WS. SPPV modulates the expression of several important host proteins such as CD40, FAS, ITGß1, ITGα1, Pak1, Pak2, CD14, ILK leading to viral attachment and entry; immune-related DEGs such as MAPK, JNK, ERK, NFKB, IKB, PI3K, STAT which provide optimal cellular condition for early viral protein expression; and FOXO3, ATF, CDKNA1, TCF, SRF, BDNF which help in inducing apoptosis and MPTP, BAD and Tp53 inhibits apoptosis or cell death at the immediate-early time. The results captured the specific genes and enabled to understand distinct pathogenic mechanisms employed by VS and WS of SPPV.

The present investigation deals with the characterization of defective interfering (DI) particles of Peste-des-petits ruminants (PPR) vaccine Sungri/96 strain generated as a result of high MOI in Vero cells. During the serial 10 passages, infectivity titres drastically reduced from 6.5 to 2.25 log10TCID50/ml at high MOI. Further, attenuation of CPE with high MOI indicated generation of DI particles that resulted in no/slow progression of CPE during the late passages. Monoclonal antibody based cell ELISA indicated normal protein (N & H) packaging in samples with DI activity. At genomic level, inconsistency in amplicon intensity of H gene was observed in RT-PCR, indicating a possible defect of H gene. Further analysis of copy number of PPRV by RT-qPCR indicated intermittent fluctuations of viral genomic RNA copies. The significant decline of viral RNA copies with MOI 3 (314 copies) compared to low MOI (512804 copies), proved that higher DI multiplicities cause more interference with the replication process of the standard virus. Therefore, MOI is critical for manufacturing of vaccines. These investigations will help in upscaling of PPR vaccines in view of ongoing National and Global PPR control and eradication programme.

Sheeppox disease is associated with significant losses in sheep production world over. The sheep pox virus, the goatpox virus, and the lumpy skin disease virus cannot be distinguished by conventional serological tests. Identification of these pathogens needs molecular methods. In this study, seven genes viz. EEV maturation protein-F12L, Virion protein-D3R, RNA polymerase subunit-A5R, Virion core protein-A10L, EEV glycoprotein-A33R, VARV B22R homologue, and Kelch like protein-A55R that cover the start, middle, and end of the genome were selected. These genes were amplified from Roumanian-Fanar vaccine strain and Jaipur virulent strain, cloned, and sequenced. On analysis with the available database sequences, VARV B22R homologue was identified as a marker for phylogenetic reconstruction for classifying the sheeppox viruses of the ungulates. Further, divergence time dating with VARV B22R gene accurately predicted the sheeppox disease outbreak involving Jaipur virulent strain.
