First isolation and genetic characterization of pseudocowpox virus from cattle in Japan

BACKGROUND: Pseudocowpox virus (PCPV) infects cattle worldwide with zoonotic potential but has not been isolated in Japan. Thus, the epidemiological status of PCPV infection in cattle is undetermined. RESULTS: In May 2016, a cattle in a farm in Yamaguchi Prefecture showed white vesicles and hyperemi...

description BACKGROUND: Pseudocowpox virus (PCPV) infects cattle worldwide with zoonotic potential but has not been isolated in Japan. Thus, the epidemiological status of PCPV infection in cattle is undetermined. RESULTS: In May 2016, a cattle in a farm in Yamaguchi Prefecture showed white vesicles and hyperemia in the mucosa under the tongue surface, but not on the teats and coronary cushions. A parapoxvirus was isolated from the oral lesion swab and was genetically characterized based on the full-length sequence of B2L gene encoding viral envelope. Phylogenetic analysis showed that the isolated virus was classified into PCPV. CONCLUSION: This case indicates its potential spread in Japan. This is the first report of isolation of PCPV in Japan.
