Re-emergence of Vesicular Stomatitis in the Western United States Is Associated with Distinct Viral Genetic Lineages

Abstract: Phylogenetic analysis of partial phosphoprotein and glycoprotein gene sequences showed that a single genetic lineage of vesicular stomatitis virus (VSV) serotype New Jersey (NJ) caused the 1995 and 1997 outbreaks of vesicular stomatitis (VS) in the western United States. While distinct from VSV-NJ strains causing previous outbreaks in the western United States and those circulating in feral swine in the southeastern United States, this lineage was closely related to viral lineages circulating in the Mexican st… Show more

“…Vesicular stomatitis virus (VSV) has been used successfully as a vector for filovirus vaccines, and antibody frequency against the vector in human subjects is presumed to be low, since it is primarily a veterinary pathogen and rarely causes symptomatic clinical infection in humans. However, the discovery of Chandipura virus as the causative agent of febrile illness and encephalitis in humans (35) as well as documented human VSV exposure coincident with livestock outbreaks in the United States (37) suggest that natural exposure may occur more frequently than has been assumed, but surveys have not been performed to evaluate human seroprevalence. In contrast, extensive sampling has been undertaken to determine the frequency of anti-adenovirus antibodies in human sera (1,28).…”

“…The San Juan isolate of the Indiana serotype of VSV provided the template for all of the cDNA clones of the VSIV genome except the G protein gene, which was derived from either the Orsay (VSIV) (58) or 95COB (VSNJV) isolate. Isolate 95COB was obtained from a bovine during an outbreak of VSNJV in Colorado in 1995 (45). Baby hamster kidney (BHK-21) cells were used to recover viruses from cDNAs, for single-step growth experiments, and for radioisotopic labeling of viral proteins.…”

“…All animal inoculations were performed with a VSNJV field strain obtained from tongue epithelium of a bovine naturally infected during the 1995 epidemic in Colorado (95COB). This virus was identified as VSNJV by virus neutralization and sequencing of the complete viral genome [21]. The virus was propagated by passing once in baby hamster kidney cells (BHK-21) infected at 0.01 multiplicity of infection.…”
