在我国患急性腹泻成人中发现一种新轮状病毒

从3例急性成人腹泻患者粪便中,经电镜观察,成人腹泻轮状病毒—酶联免疫吸附试验(ADRV-ELISA)、普通轮状病毒—酶联免疫吸附试验(Rota-ELISA),猪抗C型(组)轮状病毒和鸡抗D型(组)轮状病毒血清分别与本病毒的免疫电镜试验以及RNA电泳等实验结果,发现了一种新轮状病毒,该病毒的形态结构与普通轮状病毒(Rotavirus)、成人腹泻论状病毒(Adult Diarrhoea Rotavirus,简称ADRV)极为相似,但抗原性与普通轮状病毒(A组),成人腹泻轮状病毒(B组),C型轮状病毒(C组),D型轮状病毒(D组)显然无关。基因分析表明,该病毒基因组由11个双链RNA片段组成,但其RNA电泳图型具有独自的特点,与目前公认的A组、B组、C组、D组论状病毒韵RNA电泳图型均不同,免疫电镜证实,该病毒能被人恢复期血清所凝集,表明该病毒可能是腹泻病人的病因。

轮状病毒RNA基因图谱变异分析

用聚丙烯酰胺凝胶电泳法对轮状病毒(RV)标准株进行RNA基因图谱分析,发现人轮状病毒(HRV)Wa株在MA104细胞上连续传5代后,其RNA基因图谱由原来的4:2:3:2模式变为4:3:3:2模式。继续分别在CV-1、MA104细胞上传代后,基因图谱进一步演变为4:3:4:2模式。经比较电泳、病毒空斑纯化,初步证实RVWa有变异林存在。目前尚未见RV标准株变异的报告,有待进一步研究。同时对多个RV标准株及1939年南京市区婴幼儿秋季腹泻的RV流行株进行基因图谱分析,发现不同的人RV及牛RV标准株有相同的基因图谱;不同实验室来源的同一标准株有不同的基因图谱。此外,尚证实HRV是1989年南京市区婴幼儿秋季腹泻的主要病源,总检出率45.1％,电泳长型为流行优势株89.2％。本文尚对RV RNA基因图谱变异的原因及意义进行了讨论。

Detection of Rotavirus from Hospitalized Diarrheic Children in Uttar Pradesh, India

In the present study 220 stool samples collected from diarrheic children admitted to different hospitals and nursing homes of Uttar Pradesh and Uttarakhand were screened for rotavirus. Of 220 diarrheic samples screened 46 samples were found to be positive for rotavirus by RNA PAGE. All the isolates exhibited 4-2-3-2 migration pattern suggesting group A rotavirus. Both long and short electropherotypes were prevalent in these regions. Six different electropherotypes were detected in this study period. Male diarrheic children were found to be more susceptible to rotavirus infection (22.96 %) than that of the female ones (17.64 %). Viral RNA isolated from stool samples again subjected to VP4 gene amplification by RT-PCR using con2 and con3 primer which resulted 876 bp product suggesting group A rotavirus. Besides virus isolation was successfully done using MA104 cell line.     

Detection of human rotavirus in hospitalized diarrheic children in central India

During the present study, group A human rotaviruses were detected among diarrheic children using polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis (PAGE) technique, with a typical RNA migration pattern of 4:2:3:2, suggestive of group A rotavirus. During the study, a total of 46 fecal samples collected from hospitalized children with acute diarrhea as well as children inhabiting nearby animal farms with history of presence of animal rotaviruses on the farms were processed for detection of human rotavirus. Out of 33 diarrheic children, 12 showed presence of rotavirus infection (36.36%), however, none of the children from animal farm areas showed presence of rotavirus. Female children were more susceptible to rotavirus infection (46.15%) than males (30%). Majority of the cases of rotavirus gastroenteritis belonged up to one year of the age, with an incidence of 40.91%. RNA profile of rotaviruses suggested circulation of 5 different electropherotypes in this geographical locale of the country, indicating existence of genomic diversity among human rotaviruses. Majority of the isolates were of long pattern (66.67%), whereas short pattern was detected only in one third of the viruses. This preliminary study emphasizes for further detailed studies on the molecular characterization of rotaviruses circulating in this part of country and their relationship with other human rotavirus strains and animal strains in the country.     

Characterization of an avian rotavirus strain by neutralization and molecular hybridization assays

Pigeon rotavirus strain PO-13, which was recently shown to be neutralized by a hyperimmune serum to the prototype serotype 7 virus Ch-2, showed a one-way neutralization cross with turkey rotavirus Ty-1. When its genome was compared by RNA-RNA hybridization under stringent conditions with those of avian and mammalian rotaviruses, PO-13 displayed a low to medium level of homology only with turkey rotavirus strains Ty-1 and Ty-3 but not with chicken rotavirus strain Ch-1. Furthermore, no homology was found between the PO-13 probe and genomic RNA from 11 rotavirus strains which originated from 6 different mammalian species and which represented 6 major mammalian serotypes (1–6).     

Molecular and antigenic characterization of porcine rotavirus YM, a possible new rotavirus serotype.

In 1983, we isolated a porcine rotavirus (strain YM) that was prevalent in several regions of Mexico, as judged by the frequency of its characteristic electropherotype. By a focus reduction neutralization test, rotavirus YM was clearly distinguished from prototype rotavirus strains belonging to serotypes 1 (Wa), 2 (S2), 3 (SA11), 4 (ST3), 5 (OSU), and 6 (NCDV). Minor, one-way cross-neutralization (1 to 5%) was observed when antisera to the various rotavirus strains were incubated with rotavirus YM. In addition, the YM virus was not neutralized by neutralizing monoclonal antibodies with specificity to serotypes 1, 2, 3, and 5. The subgroup of the virus was determined to be I by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay. To characterize the serotype-specific glycoprotein of the virus at the molecular level, we cloned and sequenced the gene coding for VP7. Comparison of the deduced amino acid sequence with reported homologous sequences from human and animal rotavirus strains belonging to six different serotypes further supported the distinct immunological identity of the YM VP7 protein.     

The electrophoretic typing of rotaviruses in the clinico-epidemiological study of infection]

The electrophoretic study of the RNA of human rotavirus strains (1146 strains) circulating in 9 cities at the territory of the European part of the RSFSR was carried out. The electrophoretic (EP) types of rotavirus were established in each individual area. The study revealed that the most widespread rotaviruses responsible for the majority of gastroenteritis cases are those with the long EP type of RNA, characterized by the joint migration of segments 2, 3 and 7 (the 3rd EP type of RNA). Rotaviruses with the 3rd EP type of RNA much more often induce a severe course of rotavirus gastroenteritis in children aged 8 months to 3 years.

Rabbit model of rotavirus infection.

A new small animal model was developed to study parameters of rotavirus infections, including the active immune response. Seronegative New Zealand White rabbits (neonatal to 4 months old) were inoculated orally with cultivatable rabbit rotavirus strains Ala, C11, and R2 and with the heterologous simian strain SA11. The course of infection was evaluated by clinical findings, virus isolation (plaque assay and enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay), and serologic response. All four strains of virus were capable of infecting rabbits as determined by isolation of infectious virus from intestinal contents or fecal samples, by seroconversion, or by a combination of these methods. The responses differed depending on the virus strain used for inoculation. Rabbits remained susceptible to primary infection to at least 16 weeks of age (upper limit examined). Virus excretion in intestinal contents was detected from 6 h to 7 days postinoculation. RNA electropherotypes of inocula and viruses isolated from rabbits were the same in all samples tested. Transmission of Ala virus and R2 virus but not SA11 virus from inoculated animals to uninoculated controls also occurred. In a challenge experiment with Ala virus, 74- and 90-day-old rabbits were rechallenged with Ala 5 weeks after a primary infection with Ala. Virus was excreted in feces from 2 to 8 days after the primary infection but was not excreted after challenge. These results indicate that the rabbit provides an ideal model to investigate both the primary and secondary active immune responses to rotavirus infections and to evaluate candidate vaccines.
