RESUMO

Equine parvovirus-hepatitis (EqPV-H) was first reported from the serum and liver tissue of a horse diagnosed with Theiler's disease in the United States in 2018. Theiler's disease, also known as equine serum hepatitis, is a severe hepatitis with fulminant hepatic necrosis. The disease has most frequently been reported following the administration of equine-origin biological products; however, it has also been reported in in-contact horses with no prior biologic administration. EqPV-H has been detected in clinically healthy horses in North America (USA, Canada), Europe (Germany, Austria, Slovenia), Asia (China, South Korea), and South America (Brazil). Previous prevalence studies conducted worldwide have shown the presence of EqPV-H DNA in serum or plasma ranging from 3.2 to 19.8%. This study investigated the prevalence of EqPV-H DNA in 170 healthy broodmares of various breeds located on 37 farms in southern Ontario, Canada. The occurrence of EqPV-H infection was determined by quantitative PCR for EqPV-H DNA in serum samples. The effects of age, breed, season, pregnancy status, and equine herpesvirus-1 (EHV-1) vaccination history on EqPV-H status were also investigated. There was a prevalence of 15.9% (27/170) with viral loads of EqPV-H ranging from detectable to 2900 copies/mL. Statistical analysis showed that increasing age was a significant factor in the detection of EqPV-H DNA. Neither breed, season, pregnancy status, nor EHV-1 vaccination history was significant in predicting EqPV-H infection status.


L'hépatite à parvovirus équin (EqPV-H) a été signalée pour la première fois à partir du sérum et du tissu hépatique d'un cheval diagnostiqué avec la maladie de Theiler aux États-Unis en 2018. La maladie de Theiler, également connue sous le nom d'hépatite sérique équine, est une hépatite sévère avec nécrose hépatique fulminante. La maladie a été le plus souvent rapportée à la suite de l'administration de produits biologiques d'origine équine; cependant, il a également été signalé chez des chevaux en contact sans administration préalable de produit biologique. EqPV-H a été détecté chez des chevaux cliniquement sains en Amérique du Nord (États-Unis, Canada), en Europe (Allemagne, Autriche, Slovénie), en Asie (Chine, Corée du Sud) et en Amérique du Sud (Brésil). Des études de prévalence antérieures menées dans le monde entier ont montré la présence d'ADN EqPV-H dans le sérum ou le plasma allant de 3,2 à 19,8 %. Cette étude a examiné la prévalence de l'ADN EqPV-H chez 170 poulinières en bonne santé de différentes races situées dans 37 fermes du sud de l'Ontario, au Canada. La survenue d'une infection par EqPV-H a été déterminée par PCR quantitative pour l'ADN d'EqPV-H dans des échantillons de sérum. Les effets de l'âge, de la race, de la saison, de l'état de grossesse et des antécédents de vaccination contre l'herpèsvirus équin-1 (EHV-1) sur le statut EqPV-H ont également été étudiés. Il y avait une prévalence de 15,9 % (27/170) avec des charges virales d'EqPV-H allant de détectable à 2900 copies/mL. L'analyse statistique a montré que l'augmentation de l'âge était un facteur significatif dans la détection de l'ADN EqPV-H. Ni la race, ni la saison, ni l'état de grossesse, ni les antécédents de vaccination contre l'EHV-1 n'étaient significatifs pour prédire l'état de l'infection par l'EqPV-H.(Traduit par Docteur Serge Messier).

RESUMO

Theiler's disease (TD) is a (sub-)acute hepatitis in adult horses and one of the most common causes of acute hepatic failure. Recent findings indicate that equine parvovirus hepatitis (EqPV-H) likely causes TD and that its transmission occurs via iatrogenic and/or natural routes. Following the death of an EqPV-H positive mare with TD, close-contact mares and foals in the same paddock were monitored to evaluate if there was any evidence of EqPV-H. For this purpose, the serum of close contact horses was examined 6 and 42 days after the mare's death for the presence of EqPV-H DNA and changes in liver-associated serum biochemical parameters. The foals had higher EqPV-H viral loads than the mares. Apart from the mare that was euthanized, none of the horses included in this study showed signs of severe disease and nor did they have particularly elevated liver enzymes. Nucleotide sequence analysis revealed no major differences between the viral DNA detected in the serum of the dead mare and any of the in-contact horses. In conclusion, our data confirmed previous findings that horizontal transmission of EqPV-H may occur through close contact between horses.
