Infectious Virus
1. Needs HA0 cleaved into HA1 & HA2
2. Intracytoplasmic:a) Furin-like enzyme (ubiquitous proteases): HP
b) Trypsine-like enzyme: All AIV
![Page 8: Avian Influenza Saad Gharaibeh DVM, PhD, Dip ACPV Dept. of Pathology and Animal Health Faculty of Veterinary Medicine Jordan University of Science and.](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022062518/56649ce25503460f949ad413/html5/thumbnails/8.jpg)
Cell Types for Replication
1. All AIV (trypsine-like enzymes): a) Respiratory epithelium
b) GI epithelium
2. HP AIV (Furin-like enzymes): Variety of cells resulting in a systemic infection.
![Page 9: Avian Influenza Saad Gharaibeh DVM, PhD, Dip ACPV Dept. of Pathology and Animal Health Faculty of Veterinary Medicine Jordan University of Science and.](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022062518/56649ce25503460f949ad413/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)
Approaches Used to Characterize AIV Pathogenicity
1. In vivo methods: a) Laboratory Inoculation of chickensb) Chicken embryo lethality
2. In vitro methods (evaluation of HA cleavability):a) Plaques or CPE assays (CEF does not have trypsin)b) Direct detection of cleaved HAc) Nucleotide sequence of HA cleavage site
3. Direct measure of pathogenicity potential:a) Identify pathogenicity increases during virus passage in
chickens under controlled conditionsb) Virulence in mice and ability to infect other mammals

High Path Avian Influenza Diagnosis1. Clinical features in commercial poultry give a
tentative diagnosticSudden death and high mortality rate
2. RT-PCR and sequencing3. Virus isolation and identification is the gold standard
but very few laboratories in the world can handle such a virus capable of infecting humans.
4. Commercial antigen capture ELISA (lack sensitivity and will cross react with other endemic subtypes)
5. Serology: AGP, ELISA, HI, NI
![Page 23: Avian Influenza Saad Gharaibeh DVM, PhD, Dip ACPV Dept. of Pathology and Animal Health Faculty of Veterinary Medicine Jordan University of Science and.](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022062518/56649ce25503460f949ad413/html5/thumbnails/23.jpg)
RT-PCR
1. Testing can be performed in one day for multiple agents.
2. Sensitivity is very high and comparable to virus isolation.
3. Can be applied on samples from any species.
4. Decrease the chance of contamination with live virus.

Should we start vaccinating poultry against H5N1?

Killed Vaccines
1. Will result in only humoral antibody response against all viral proteins except NS1.
2. Will significantly reduce shedding of the challenge virus.
3. Will interfere with AGP, ELISA, HI, and NI if (homologous).
4. If sequence of the HA gene is identical to the challenge virus it may eliminate shedding completely.

Advantages of Vaccines
• Reduces the number of chickens from which AI challenge virus could be reisolated.
• Decreased the titers of virus detected in the cloaca and oropharynx (up to 99.99%)
• Reduced environmental contamination and prevented subsequent bird to bird transmission.
• The use of killed H5N2 vaccine in the face of HPAI H5N1 virus challenge was able to protect chickens from disease and interrupt virus transmission.
![Page 51: Avian Influenza Saad Gharaibeh DVM, PhD, Dip ACPV Dept. of Pathology and Animal Health Faculty of Veterinary Medicine Jordan University of Science and.](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022062518/56649ce25503460f949ad413/html5/thumbnails/51.jpg)
DIVADifferentiating Infected from Vaccinated Individuals
• The use of killed vaccine and unvaccinated sentinels: leaving 0.5-1% of the flock unvaccinated and marked (wing band) and these individuals will be subjected to serological monitoring.
• Heterogonous killed vaccine: Screen for field infection using NI.
• Measuring serological response to NS1 by ELISA or western blot.
![Page 52: Avian Influenza Saad Gharaibeh DVM, PhD, Dip ACPV Dept. of Pathology and Animal Health Faculty of Veterinary Medicine Jordan University of Science and.](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022062518/56649ce25503460f949ad413/html5/thumbnails/52.jpg)
Vaccine / Industry / Politics• The use of vaccine to aid in the control of AI
is a political issue and different people have a different say on this.
• In some countries financial constrains preclude stamping out policy.
• In some countries, export markets are not an issue to prevent vaccination.
• In some countries, stamping out attempt may be unsuccessful.
• “With the ubiquitous nature of AI in wild birds it may be vaccination the most feasible tool to soften the sting of AI” Beard 1981
![Page 53: Avian Influenza Saad Gharaibeh DVM, PhD, Dip ACPV Dept. of Pathology and Animal Health Faculty of Veterinary Medicine Jordan University of Science and.](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022062518/56649ce25503460f949ad413/html5/thumbnails/53.jpg)
Vaccine / Industry / Politics• “Field results have not shown vaccine to increase the
risk of undetected infection; in fact, field experience has shown that vaccination greatly enhances a control program.” Halvorson, 2002, Avian Pathology
• There is no way a vaccinated flock can be a greater threat to disease control than a non-vaccinated flock that breaks with AI. Halvorson, 2002, Avian Pathology
• Epidemiological observations have shown that serologically positive birds are not associated with AI transmission. (Kradel, 1992)
• Should the government set the rules when no indemnity (compensation) is paid?
