Abstract
The high mutation rate of porcine reproductive and respiratory syndrome virus (PRRSV) poses significant challenges to its accurate diagnosis and the implementation of effective control measures. This research explores the pathogenic profiles of two emerging PRRSV stains: the NADC30-like strain SD53 and the highly pathogenic strain HuN4. Our investigation reveals that SD53 initiates distinct immunopathological responses in vivo compared with those provoked by HuN4. By conducting a transcriptome analysis of differential gene expression in the lungs and lymph nodes of infected piglets, we unveil the intricate molecular mechanisms underlying the contrasting pathogenicity of these two strains. The comprehensive insights yielded by this study are instrumental in advancing our understanding of the dominant NADC30-like PRRSV strain, which has become increasingly prevalent in China's swine industry.
