Propagation of Astrovirus VA1, a Neurotropic Human Astrovirus, in Cell Culture

, 2017
Astrovirus VA1/HMO-C (VA1; mamastrovirus 9) is a recently discovered astrovirus genotype that is divergent from the classic human astroviruses (mamastrovirus 1). The gastrointestinal tract is presumed to be the primary site of infection and pathogenicity
