Infectious salmon anaemia virus (ISAV) in experimentally challenged Atlantic cod (Gadus morhua)

Juvenile Atlantic cod, Gadus morhua, (6 g) were challenged with infectious salmon anaemia virus (ISAV) either by intraperitoneal (i.p.) injection or by cohabitation with ISA-diseased Atlantic salmon (Salmo salar). Samplings of cod were performed over a period of 45 days and various tissue samples we...

Popis
Shrnutí:Juvenile Atlantic cod, Gadus morhua, (6 g) were challenged with infectious salmon anaemia virus (ISAV) either by intraperitoneal (i.p.) injection or by cohabitation with ISA-diseased Atlantic salmon (Salmo salar). Samplings of cod were performed over a period of 45 days and various tissue samples were collected. The presence of ISAV RNA (segment 8) in samples was assessed by both conventional RT-PCR and a competitive quantitative real-time RT-PCR. In the i.p.-challenged group, ISAV RNA was detected in fish from all samplings, i.e. at days 7, 15, 21, 30 and 45 post-challenge. At day 7 post-challenge, all individual fish were positive, and so were the vast majority of individual tissue samples. At later samplings, the fraction of positive brain samples remained high (~75%). In contrast, the positive fraction of other tissues/organs declined during the experiment. Analysis of positive brain samples by a quantitative real-time RT-PCR analysis showed that the level of ISAV RNA increased significantly (~20 times) between days 7 and 30 post-challenge and remained high at day 45, indicating that a replication of ISAV had taken place. ISAV RNA was not detected in any control or cohabitation-challenged fish. No abnormal behaviour, clinical disease or, most notably, mortality was observed in any of the challenge or control groups.
