Abstract
Transmissible gastroenteritis virus (TGEV) causes acute and highly contagious diarrheal syndrome in pigs, most often fatal for animals aged less than 2 weeks. Despite the intensive research efforts, no safe and efficient vaccine is available against this major porcine pathogen. The tropism of the causative agent to the differenciated enterocytes covering the intestine villi is responsible for the observed enteric disorders. It is assumed that the natural protection conferred by mothers, infected with wild virus, on their suckling piglets is due to the presence in the milk of mainly IgA type neutralizing antibodies induced by the virus peplomers. (see 1 for a review).
