4 Chronic Wasting Disease (CWD)
5 What is Chronic Wasting Disease (CWD)? CWD is a transmissible spongiform encephalopathy (TSE) characterized by prions that accumulate in the brain and lymphatic system Other TSE s include: Bovine Spongiform Encephalopathy Scrapie (sheep and goats) Creutzfeldt-Jakob Disease (humans) Feline Spongiform Encephalopathy Transmissible Mink Encephalopathy Spongiform changes in the brain
6 What is a Prion? Misfolded proteins that attack the nervous system of the host.
7 Chronic Wasting Disease Susceptible Native Species in Texas: White-tailed Deer Mule Deer
8 Chronic Wasting Disease Susceptible Non- Native Species in Texas North American Elk Moose Sika Deer Red Deer Reindeer Black-tailed Deer Any associated subspecies and hybrids of the above
9 Chronic Wasting Disease Incubation period average 2-4 years Symptoms include: Appetite loss Emaciation Excessive salivation, difficulty swallowing Behavioral changes Excessive urination Increased water intake Neurologic deficits lack of muscle coordination and exaggerated wide posture
10 How Is CWD transmitted? CWD prions accumulate in nervous and lymphatic tissues CWD infected deer are a source of prions. Prions are shed in saliva, urine, blood, feces, soft antler material, and decomposing carcasses CWD can be spread through animal to animal contact It can also be spread by animal contact with a contaminated environment
11 CWD Distribution in US 1967 CWD was first found in a Colorado Research Facility 2012 First detection of CWD in a free-ranging mule deer in far west Texas It is currently in 25 states and 2 Canadian Provinces
12 CWD Positive Cases in Captive WTD in Texas Update as of April 23, 2018 CWD has been found in 5 Permitted Breeding Facilities plus Release Sites associated with two of those Permitted Breeding Facilities There are 76 CWD Positive detections in captive deer in Texas There are 2 CWD Positive detections in captive elk in Texas TPWD list of all CWD positive cases in Texas: WD
13 Chronic Wasting Disease (CWD) Diagnosis Tissues for postmortem testing Obex Medial Retropharyngeal Lymph Nodes (MRPLN s) Tissues for antemortem testing *Practice of veterinary medicine and can only be performed by a veterinarian* Tonsil Biopsy Rectal Biopsy MRPLN Biopsy
14 TAHC Herd Certification Program Regulations For herds enrolled in the TAHC Herd Certification program, tissue samples submitted must include the obex and at least one retropharyngeal lymph node from each animal being tested.
15 Texas Parks and Wildlife Department Regulations A postmortem CWD test is not valid unless it is performed by an accredited testing laboratory on the obex or the medial retropharyngeal lymph node of an eligible mortality and may be collected only by a qualified licensed veterinarian, TAHC-certified CWD sample collector, or other person approved by the department
16 CWD Testing on Direct Trace Animals Diagnostic specimens shall be submitted to TVMDL using one of the following procedures and individuals listed below: A USDA accredited, TAHC authorized, CWD certified veterinarian can either collect and submit the above specimens in 10% formalin or submit a whole head to TVMDL. The facility owner can only submit a whole head to TVMDL. A USDA, TAHC, or TPWD regulatory official can either collect and submit the above specimens in 10% formalin or submit a whole head to TVMDL.
17 Direct Trace Animals Both obex and medial retropharyngeal lymph nodes in 10% formalin collected from trace-forward exposed animals are REQUIRED to be tested for CWD. All animal identification (ear tags, tattoos, etc.) shall be submitted with the entire ear attached fresh or frozen, and must be recorded on the corresponding TVMDL submission form.
18 CWD Postmortem Sample Collection
19 Chronic Wasting Disease (CWD) Spoon Placement (Cross section view) Obex / Brain stem sample Obex / Brain stem sample Photos Courtesy of Kent Munden, USDA APHIS VS Animal Identification Coordinator
20 Spoon Collection With forceps and scissors Remove as much dura as possible This will allow for easier sample removal This will also allow a better view of the sample to be collected Photo Courtesy of Kent Munden, USDA APHIS VS Animal Identification Coordinator
21 Spoon Collection Continued Photo Courtesy of Kent Munden, USDA APHIS VS Animal Identification Coordinator Sever the cranial nerves These are located on both sides of the spinal cord This may be done with scissors or a knife Failure to sever these nerves could cause damage to the brain stem upon removal
22 Spoon Collection Continued Spoon Insertion With light pressure, use forceps to hold the spinal cord to the back of the foramen Insert the spoon on the top side and press it gently into the foramen opening the to sever the cerebellum At a depth of 2/3 of the tool, push the spoon handle forward in order to sever the brain stem Then remove the spoon Photo Courtesy of Kent Munden, USDA APHIS VS Animal Identification Coordinator
23 Spoon Collection Continued Photo Courtesy of Kent Munden, USDA APHIS VS Animal Identification Coordinator With forceps, move the spinal cord forward. Insert the spoon behind the spinal cord to a depth of 2/3 of the handle Gently pull upward on the spoon to remove the sample NOTE: the spoon tip should be kept close to the skull cap during removal to keep from damaging the sample
24 Spoon Collection Continued Once the brain stem has been removed: Clean off all excess blood prior to cutting With a clean sample, this will allow for easier processing at the lab Photo Courtesy of Kent Munden, USDA APHIS VS Animal Identification Coordinator
25 Cut Your Sample Cut only the middle section with the V of the obex Photo Courtesy of Kent Munden, USDA APHIS VS Animal Identification Coordinator
26 Chronic Wasting Disease (CWD) Medial Retropharyngeal Lymph Node Collection Insert the closed scissor tip, at the base of the skull, just inside the jaw bone then pull toward you. This will tear the tissue which covers the node and expose the Retro lymph node. Then grab the node with forceps and trim it out with the scissors. Retro Lymph node, Just inside Jaw, one on each side.

28 Packaging and Shipping
29 Tests For Chronic Wasting Disease Postmortem CWD Testing options available from the Texas A&M Veterinary Medical Diagnostic Laboratory: Immunohistochemistry (IHC) Enzyme-linked Immunosorbent Assay (ELISA)
30 Postmortem ELISA Testing Alternative to postmortem testing of obex and medial retropharyngeal lymph node tissues by immunohistochemistry (IHC) Approved for use by Texas Animal Health Commission and Texas Parks and Wildlife Department under certain circumstances* Performed by Texas A&M Veterinary Medical Diagnostic Laboratory (TVMDL) TVMDL CWD Deer Breeder Facility Submission Forms accessible through the facility TPWD/Texas Wildlife Information Management Services (TWIMS) account now have the option to select ELISA
31 Differences Between ELISA and IHC ELISA Obex & Medial Retropharyngeal Lymph Nodes TVMDL cost for the account holder - $24 for one Tissue; $30 for both tissues Turnaround time is typically around 2-3 days, but can be longer during times of heavy demand Complete a TVMDL CWD Submission Form Accessible only through the facility TPWD/TWIMS Account IHC Obex & Medial Retropharyngeal Lymph Nodes TVMDL cost for the account holder - $40 for one tissue; $45 for both tissues Normal turnaround time is days, but can be longer during times of heavy demand Complete a TVMDL CWD Submission Form Accessible only through the facility TPWD/TWIMS Account
