Abstract
Mammalian orthoreoviruses (MRVs) infect a wide range of hosts, including humans, livestock, and wildlife. In the present study, we isolated a novel Mammalian orthoreovirus from the intestine of a microbat (Myotis aurascens) and investigated its biological and pathological characteristics. Phylogenetic analysis indicated that the new isolate was serotype 2, sharing the segments with those from different hosts. Our results showed that it can infect a wide range of cell lines from different mammalian species, including human, swine, and non-human primate cell lines. Additionally, media containing trypsin, yeast extract, and tryptose phosphate broth promoted virus propagation in primate cell lines and most human cell lines, but not in A549 and porcine cell lines. Mice infected with this strain via the intranasal route, but not via the oral route, exhibited weight loss and respiratory distress. The virus is distributed in a broad range of organs and causes lung damage. In vitro and in vivo experiments also suggested that the new virus could be a neurotropic infectious strain that can infect a neuroblastoma cell line and replicate in the brains of infected mice. Additionally, it caused a delayed immune response, as indicated by the high expression levels of cytokines and chemokines only at 14 days post-infection (dpi). These data provide an important understanding of the genetics and pathogenicity of mammalian orthoreoviruses in bats at risk of spillover infections.IMPORTANCEMammalian orthoreoviruses (MRVs) have a broad range of hosts and can cause serious respiratory and gastroenteritis diseases in humans and livestock. Some strains infect the central nervous system, causing severe encephalitis. In this study, we identified BatMRV2/SNU1/Korea/2021, a reassortment of MRV serotype 2, isolated from bats with broad tissue tropism, including the neurological system. In addition, it has been shown to cause respiratory syndrome in mouse models. The given data will provide more evidence of the risk of mammalian orthoreovirus transmission from wildlife to various animal species and the sources of spillover infections.

Abstract
Throughout East Asia, Europe, and North America, mammalian orthoreovirus (MRV), for which bats have been proposed to be natural reservoirs, has been detected in a variety of domestic and wild mammals, as well as in humans. Here, we isolated a novel MRV strain (designated as Kj22-33) from a fecal sample from Vespertilio sinensis bats in Japan. Strain Kj22-33 has a 10-segmented genome with a total length of 23,580 base pairs. Phylogenetic analysis indicated that Kj22-33 is a serotype 2 strain, the segmented genome of which has undergone reassortment with that of other MRV strains.

Abstract
Biosecurity enhancement contributes to the reduction of various microbial pathogens. Mammalian orthoreoviruses (MRVs) which are increasingly recognized as potentially serious problems on swine industry were used as indicators of biosecurity enhancement on two pig farms. Twelve MRVs were detected and isolated from fecal specimens of healthy pigs collected from one of the two farms in Japan. By sequencing based on the partial S1 gene, MRV isolates were classified as MRV1 and MRV2. Additionally, the virucidal activities of disinfectants toward the isolated MRV1 were evaluated using quaternary ammonium compound (QAC) diluted 500 times with water (QAC-500), 0.17% food additive glade calcium hydroxide (FdCa(OH)2) solution, QAC diluted with 0.17% FdCa(OH)2 solution (Mix-500), sodium hypochlorite at 100 or 1,000 parts per million (ppm) of total chlorine (NaClO-100 or NaClO-1000, respectively). To efficiently inactivate MRV1 (≥3 log10 reductions), 0.17% FdCa(OH)2, Mix-500 and NaClO-1000 required 5 min, whereas it took 30 min for QAC-500. The number of MRV detections has decreased over time, after using Mix-500 for disinfection on the positive farm. These results suggest that different serotypes of MRVs are circulating among pigs, and that the occurrence of MRVs in the farms decreased consequent to more effective disinfection.

Genetic diversity, reassortment, and recombination of mammalian orthoreoviruses from Japanese porcine fecal samples. Arch Virol 2022; 167:2643-2652. [PMID: 36114317 DOI: 10.1007/s00705-022-05602-8] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/04/2022] [Accepted: 08/12/2022] [Indexed: 12/14/2022]
Abstract
Mammalian orthoreoviruses (MRVs) are non-enveloped double-stranded RNA viruses with a broad host range. MRVs are prevalent worldwide, and in Japan, they have been isolated from various hosts, including humans, dogs, cats, wild boars, and pigs, and they have also been found in sewage. However, Japanese porcine MRVs have not been genetically characterized. While investigating porcine enteric viruses including MRV, five MRVs were isolated from the feces of Japanese pigs using MA104 cell culture. Genetic analysis of the S1 gene revealed that the Japanese porcine MRV isolates could be classified as MRV-2 and MRV-3. Whole genome analysis showed that Japanese porcine MRVs exhibited genetic diversity, although they shared sequence similarity with porcine MRV sequences in the DDBJ/EMBL/GenBank database. Several potential intragenetic reassortment events were detected among MRV strains from pigs, sewage, and humans in Japan, suggesting zoonotic transmission. Furthermore, homologous recombination events were identified in the M1 and S1 genes of Japanese porcine MRV. These findings imply that different strains of Japanese porcine MRV share a porcine MRV genomic backbone and have evolved through intragenetic reassortment and homologous recombination events.
