• W4387392298 abstract "ABSTRACT Since 2015, virulence-associated protein N ( vapN )-positive Rhodococcus equi has been isolated from pyogenic lesions in ruminants in multiple countries, including Japan, supporting the widespread distribution of this pathogen in ruminants, and suggesting that VapN is responsible for the pathogenicity of this infection. However, no immunological diagnostic method has been established for this infection. In this study, we attempted to produce anti-VapN monoclonal antibodies and apply them to immunostaining methods. Mice were immunized intraperitoneally or subcutaneously with 5 µg of recombinant VapN (rVapN). After cell fusion and cloning by limiting dilution, we generated three anti-VapN antibody-producing hybridomas (4H4, 5C3, and 5G10). Next, VapN-based immunostaining was performed using a mouse model inoculated with rVapN, the JCM94-3 (VapN-producing) strain, or the JID03-27 (low-producing) strain. Positive reactions were observed in necrotic lesions in the liver and spleen, especially in the rVapN-treated and JCM94-3-treated groups. Immunostaining of goats ( n = 2) and cattle ( n = 3) presumed to be infected with vapN -positive R. equi was also positive in organs carrying necrotic lesions including the lungs, lymph nodes, abomasum, and ribs. The reactivity of immunostaining differed among the antibodies, with the 4H4 antibody exhibiting the best reactivity and allowing detection at low concentrations. However, the reactivity of the other two antibodies was improved by antigen retrieval treatment. Several known diseases cause necrotizing granuloma formation, and the immunological diagnostic method established in this study can be used to distinguish R. equi infection from similar diseases or identify infection in previously missed cases. IMPORTANCE Rhodococcus equi can cause infection in ruminants, and its pathogenicity is suggested to be associated with VapN. Despite its wide distribution, no immunological diagnostic method has been developed for VapN-producing R. equi . Against this background, we attempted to develop monoclonal antibodies targeting VapN and assess their application in immunostaining. In the study, mice were immunized with recombinant VapN, and cell fusion and cloning by limiting dilution permitted the generation of three antibody-producing hybridomas. The utility of the antibodies produced from the hybridomas in immunostaining was demonstrated using an infected mouse model, and the antibodies were further applied to previously reported cases of R. equi infection in goats and cattle. Although the 4H4 antibody induced the strongest reactions, the reactivity of two other antibodies was improved by antigen retrieval. Our monoclonal antibodies will be utilized to support the definitive diagnosis of suspected R. equi infection, including cases that were previously missed." @default.
