Detecção de dna de herpesvírus bovino em encéfalos de bovinos submetidos ao diagnóstico de raiva

Kunert Filho, Hiran Castagnino January 2011 (has links)
Os herpesvírus bovino tipo 1 (BoHV-1) e 5 (BoHV-5) são alfaherpesvírus freqüentemente associados a meningoencefalites. Por outro lado, o vírus da raiva é o agente mais frequentemente identificado como causador de encefalites virais em bovinos no Brasil. O objetivo do presente estudo foi examinar a ocorrência de infecções por BoHV-1 e/ou BoHV-5 em amostras de tecido encefálico bovino submetidas ao diagnóstico de raiva e avaliar seu possível envolvimento nos quadros de encefalite que originaram a suspeita de raiva. Para tanto, 101 amostras desses tecidos, sendo 39 positivas para raiva e 62 negativas, recebidas pelo órgão oficial responsável pelo diagnóstico de raiva no Estado do Rio Grande do Sul (IPVDF) no período de 2009- 2010, foram submetidas a exames buscando o isolamento viral e amplificação de genomas de herpesvírus bovinos. Ao isolamento viral, todas as amostras foram negativas para vírus infeccioso após a realização de três passagens cegas em células MDBK. As mesmas foram submetidas à amplificação por “nested PCR” (nPCR) para a pesquisa de genomas de BoHV-1 e BoHV-5. Das 101 amostras totais analisadas esta técnica revelou que 25,7% (26/101) continham genomas de BoHV-1 e 21,8% (22/101) continham genomas de BoHV-5. Genomas de ambos os tipos foram identificadas em 30 (29,7%) amostras. Entre as amostras que foram também positivas para raiva em 23% (9/39) foram detectados genomas de BoHV-1 e em 15,4% (6/39) continham genomas de BoHV-5. Em 16 destas 39 amostras (41%) foram detectados genomas de BoHV-1 e BoHV-5. Em contrapartida, nas amostras negativas para o vírus rábico, 27,4% (17/62) também foram positivas para BoHV-1, 25,8% (16/62) foram positivas para BoHV-5. Detectaram-se os genomas de ambos BoHVs em 22,6% (14/62) dos animais. Estas diferenças não foram estatisticamente significativas, indicando não haver correlação entre a ocorrência de raiva e infecções por herpesvírus na amostragem realizada. Estes resultados indicam que, embora as infecções por BoHV-1 e BoHV-5 tenham apresentado elevada incidência nessas amostras, não havia vírus infeccioso nas mesmas, sugerindo infecções latentes sem envolvimento aparente nos quadros de encefalite que originaram a suspeita inicial de raiva. / Bovine herpesvirus type 1 (BoHV-1) and 5 (BoHV-5) are alphaherpesviruses associated with a number of clinical manifestations in cattle, including encephalitis. On the other hand, rabies virus is the agent most frequently identified as cause of viral encephalitis in cattle in Brazil. The aim of this study was to examine the occurrence of BoHV-1 and / or BoHV-5 in bovine brain tissue samples submitted to rabies diagnosis. The search was carried out by virus isolation and nested polymerase chain reaction (PCR) in brain tissues of cattle submitted to rabies diagnosis in the state of Rio Grande do Sul in the period 2009-2010. One hundred and one brain samples from cattle with signs of neurological disease, of which 39 were positive and 62 negative for rabies, were used in this study. At virus isolation, all samples were negative for the presence of infectious herpesviruses after three successive passages in MDBK cells. Of the 101 total samples analyzed, this test revealed that 25.7% (26/101) of cattle were infected with BoHV-1 and 21.8% (22/101) were infected with BoHV-5. Genomes of both types were detected in 29.7% (30/101) samples. With the 39 samples positive for rabies virus, BoHV-1 genome was detected in 23% (9/39) and 15.4% (6/39) were positive for BoHV-5 as well as in 41% (16/39) of these samples, which were positive for both BoHVs. On the other hand, the negative samples for rabies virus, 27.4% (17/62) also were positive for BoHV-1, as well and 25.8% (16/62) were positive for BoHV-5. Genomes of both BoHVs were detected in 22.6% (14/62) of the specimens. These differences were not statistically significant indicating no correlation between the occurrence of rabies and herpesvirus infections in the animals. These results do not imply that the herpesviruses detected, even showing a high incidence, were the causative agents of meningoencephalitis in the samples tested, once it was not possible to isolate virus in its infectious form, however it suggests a latent infection in the animals involved with neurological signs of meningoencephalitis whose primary suspicion was rabies.
