Virologic features of an astrovirus diarrhea outbreak in a day care center revealed by reverse transcriptase-polymerase chain reaction

, 1995
Astroviruses cause outbreaks of diarrhea in children attending day care centers (DCCs). Reverse transcriptase-polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) was compared with EIA detection of astrovirus in stool specimens to characterize further the molecular ...

Detection, characterization, and phylogenetic analysis of novel astroviruses from endemic Malagasy fruit bats

Virology Journal
Bats (order: Chiroptera) are known to host a diverse range of viruses, some of which present a human public health risk. Thorough viral surveillance is therefore essential to predict and potentially mitigate zoonotic spillover.

Establishment and application of quadruple fluorescence quantitative RT-PCR method for the identification of waterfowl astrovirus

Frontiers in Microbiology
Avian astrovirus can infect a variety of poultry species and cause viral diarrhea, with a wide epidemic range strong pathogenicity and a high incidence. Among them, Duck astrovirus 3(DAstV-3), Duck astrovirus 4(DAstV-4), Goose astrovirus 1(GoAstV-1) and ...

The conserved human astrovirus-receptor interface reveals a targetable vulnerability for antiviral development

Nature Communications
Human astrovirus (HAstV) is a major cause of viral enteritis in children and the older adults worldwide. The eight serotypes of classical HAstVs (HAstV1-8), employ the neonatal Fc receptor (FcRn) as an entry receptor.

Identification of viral protease-dependent cleavage sites within the human astrovirus polyprotein

Journal of Virology
Infection by human astrovirus (HAstV), a small, positive-strand RNA virus, is a major cause of gastroenteritis and has been implicated in an increasing number of severe, sometimes fatal, neurological diseases since 2008.

Role of ClC-2 and NHE transport proteins in Intestinal Mucosal Barrier

, 2008
Intestinal mucosal barrier recovery is critical to prevent entry of pathogens and toxic products in various patho-physiological conditions. We studied role of ion transporters in the recovery of intestinal barrier function after ischemic injury and found

Avian astrovirus caused mortality in pheasant (Phasianus colchicus, Linnaeus, 1758) farm in Hungary

We present the clinical symptoms, pathologic lesions and diagnostic possibilities of the avian astrovirus-related mortality in a pheasant colony. In addition to enteritis in chicks, we also confirmed acute nephrosis.

Bovine astrovirus infection in feedlot cattle with neurological disease in western Canada. [PDF]

, 2017
A novel bovine astrovirus (BoAstV CH13/NeuroS1) has been associated with encephalitis in cattle in Europe and the USA. We retrospectively analyzed feedlot cattle with encephalitis of unknown etiology for this virus byhybridization.
