Analysis of viral RNA and apoptotic cells in bursae following infection with vaccine and very virulent strains of infectious bursal disease virus

Previously we have shown that the very virulent (vv) infectious bursal disease virus (IBDV) UPM94/273 and UPM91/61 have significantly distinct pathogenicity and genetic profiles. In this study, a SYBR‚ Green I based real-time reverse transcriptase reaction assay was developed to measure viral RNA in...

description Previously we have shown that the very virulent (vv) infectious bursal disease virus (IBDV) UPM94/273 and UPM91/61 have significantly distinct pathogenicity and genetic profiles. In this study, a SYBR‚ Green I based real-time reverse transcriptase reaction assay was developed to measure viral RNA in the bursae of chickens infected with IBDV. A linear relationship was observed between the amount of input viral RNA and the threshold values for IBDV-specific product over five log10 dilutions. The viral RNA level following infection with UPM94/273 was significantly higher at day 1 and 2 post-inoculation (p.i) compared to UPM97/61 infected chickens. However, chickens infected with UPM97/61 had significantly higher numbers of bursal cells undergoing apoptosis compared to UPM94/273 infected chickens. In both groups the number of apoptotic cells and viral RNA levels peak at day 3 p.i. This study indicates UPM97/61 and UPM94/273 have different efficiency of replication and percentage of apoptotic cells in bursae during the acute phase of IBDV infection.
