摘要: Background: Since 2011, re-emerging pseudorabies virus (PRV) variant strains have been widespread in swine herds immunized with the classical PRV vaccine in China, suggesting that it is necessary to develop a new vaccine against these PRV variant strains. Methods: Here, based on a PRV mutant strain isolated in Jinmen (JM), two recombinant strains were constructed using CRISPR/Cas9 technology, including PRV-JM-Delta EK with the deletion of the gE and TK genes and PRV-JM-Delta EI92K with the deletion of the gE, gI, US2, US9, and TK genes. Results: A one-step growth curve and plaque assay revealed that the cell-to-cell transmission ability of PRV-JM-Delta EI92K was lower than that of PRV-JM-Delta EK. However, the replication ability of PRV-JM-Delta EI92K was approximately 10 times higher than that of PRV-JM-Delta EK, similar to wild-type PRV-JM. The intramuscular injection of 106 TCID50 of PRV-JM-Delta EK or PRV-JM-Delta EI92K could not cause death in mice, and both could produce specific antibodies against gB and gD. The survival rate of mice immunized with both recombinant viruses was 100% when the mice were challenged by the PRV-JM strain. Histopathological sections from the PRV-JM-Delta EK group showed milder pathological changes compared to the PRV-JM-Delta EI92K group, proving that PRV-JM-Delta EK provided more effective protection. In pigs injected with 106 TCID50 of PRV-JM-Delta EK or PRV-JM-Delta EI92K, their body temperature did not rise, and their weight gain was not affected. Both recombinant viruses could induce the production of gB- and gD-specific antibodies and neutralizing antibodies. After the challenge of the PRV-JM virus, neutralizing antibody production was rapidly induced and lasted for at least 3 weeks. Pigs immunized with both PRV-JM-Delta EI92K and PRV-JM-Delta EK had a 100% survival rate, demonstrating that both recombinant viruses could provide effective protection. Conclusions: Compared with PRV-JM-Delta EK, PRV-JM-Delta EI92K had better safety. In conclusion, we constructed two PRV recombinant viruses, which have the potential to be used as a live carrier vaccine.
