TTsuV1 can cause persistent infection and unidentified clinical signs in pigs. In this study, a survey of TTsuV1 prevalence was conducted in slaughter pigs from Henan, Liaoning, and Shandong provinces in China. A total of 180 swine lymphoid tissues were assayed by PCR with primers targeting the conserved 5'-untranslated region (5'-UTR). The results showed that a 17.8 % positive rate, and different genotypes were detected. TTSuV1 presented higher viral load and prevalence in inguinal lymph node than in submandibular lymph node samples. All TTsuV1 isolates have 84-100 % nucleotide sequence homology in the 5'-UTR region and can be grouped into three subgenotypes (TTsuV1, TTsuV1, and TTsuV1). Notably, the novel genetic subtype TTsuV1 was first reported in slaughter pigs.
猪圆环病毒1型(TTsuV1)可在猪群中引起持续性感染和不明临床症状。本研究对来自中国河南、辽宁和山东三省的屠宰猪进行了TTsuV1流行情况调查。采用针对保守5'-非翻译区(5'-UTR)的引物,通过聚合酶链反应(PCR)对180份猪淋巴组织进行检测。结果显示,阳性率为17.8%,且检测到不同基因型。与下颌下淋巴结样本相比,腹股沟淋巴结中TTsuV1的病毒载量和流行率更高。所有TTsuV1分离株在5'-UTR区域的核苷酸序列同源性为84%-100%,可分为三个亚基因型(TTsuV1、TTsuV1和TTsuV1)。值得注意的是,新型遗传亚型TTsuV1首次在屠宰猪中被报道。
