As PCV2d infection has been continuously reported in swine farms in which pigs were vaccinated with PCV2a- or 2d-based vaccines, we attempted to develop a novel vaccine using a PCV2d-based capsid to enhance its protective efficacy. In this study, recombinant virus-like particles (VLPs) of rPCV2a, rPCV2b and rPCV2d were synthesized from the capsid proteins of PCV2a, PCV2b and PCV2d field isolates, respectively. A cross-neutralization assay between the VLPs induced antisera and the field isolates demonstrated the broad cross-neutralizing activities of the rPCV2d-induced antisera. Then, the protective efficacy of rPCV2d as a vaccine candidate was investigated in commercial pigs by rPCV2d vaccination and a single- or dual-challenge infection using a PCV2d strain and a type 1 PRRSV strain. High levels of anti-PCV2d IgG and neutralizing antibodies were induced 3 weeks after vaccination. After the challenge infection, the average ADWG values of the vaccinated group were higher than those of the unvaccinated group. None or a significantly low amount of (p < 0.05) reduced PCV2 genomic DNA was found in the blood, saliva and tissues of the vaccinated pigs, when compared to the unvaccinated group. Moreover, macroscopic and microscopic lesions in the tissues were significantly (p < 0.05) reduced in the vaccinated groups. This study therefore suggests that rPCV2d may be highly useful for the control of diverse field genotypes. |
