The objective was to determine effects of an intratracheal Mannheimia haemolytica challenge after 72-h exposure to bovine viral diarrhea virus type 1b (BVDV1b) persistently infected (PI) calves on serum antibody production, white blood cell count (WBC), cytokine concentrations, and blood gases in feedlot steers. Twenty-four steers (initial BW = 314 +/- 31 kg) were randomly allocated to 1 of 4 treatments (6 steers/treatment) arranged as a 2 x 2 factorial. Treatments were 1) steers not exposed to steers PI with BVDV nor challenged with M. haemolytica (control; CON); 2) steers exposed to 2 steers PI with BVDV for 72 h (BVD); 3) steers intratracheally challenged with M. haemolytica (MH); and 4) steers exposed to 2 steers PI with BVDV for 72 h and challenged with M. haemolytica (BVD+MH). There were 12 h between exposure to PI steers and challenge with M. haemolytica. Rectal temperature was increased (P < 0.001) for MH and BVD+MH during the initial 24 h after the M. haemolytica challenge. For MH and BVD+MH, total WBC count was increased (P < 0.01) at 36 h post M. haemolytica challenge compared with CON, whereas in BVD steers, WBC count was decreased (P < 0.01). Total lymphocyte count was increased (P = 0.004) during the initial 72 h post BVDV exposure for the BVD and BVD+MH groups compared with MH and CON, and this difference remained at 96 h post M. haemolytica challenge. An increased (P < 0.001) total neutrophil count was observed during the initial 36 h for the MH group and at 72 h for the BVD+MH challenge group. Interleukin 1beta, IL-6, and tumor necrosis factor alpha (TNFalpha) concentrations were greater (P <or= 0.04) in BVD steers than steers not exposed to BVDV, and interferon gamma, IL-1beta, and TNFalpha were greater (P <or= 0.02) in MH steers than in steers not challenged with M. haemolytica. There were BVD x MH interactions (P <or= 0.04) for plasma carbon dioxide, carbonic acid, and sodium bicarbonate concentrations. Challenge with M. haemolytica decreased carbon dioxide, carbonic acid, and sodium bicarbonate concentrations to a greater extent when steers were not exposed to PI steers compared with steers exposed to BVDV. We conclude that the challenge model was successful at inducing bovine respiratory disease (BRD) associated with BVDV and M. haemolytica. Understanding the physiological changes in morbid animals will lead to improved strategies for decreasing severity and economic losses associated with BRD.
