A dog was euthanatized because of progressive neurological signs. Histologically, a nonsuppurative meningoencephalitis was found. By immunohistochemistry, in situ hybridization, and nested PCR procedures, Borna disease virus (BDV) antigen and BDV-specific RNA were demonstrated in brain tissues of the dog. The nucleotide sequence of the PCR product showed 94 to 98% homology to published BDV sequences. This is the first description of Borna disease in a dog.
一只狗因进行性神经症状而被实施安乐死。组织学检查发现非化脓性脑膜脑炎。通过免疫组织化学、原位杂交和巢式PCR程序,在该犬的脑组织中检测到博尔纳病病毒(BDV)抗原和BDV特异性RNA。PCR产物的核苷酸序列与已发表的BDV序列显示出94%至98%的同源性。这是犬博尔纳病的首次报道。
