High Seropositivity Rate of Neutralizing Antibodies to Astrovirus VA1 in Human Populations [PDF]
Astroviruses are human pathogens with emerging disease associations, including the recent recognition of their capacity to cause meningoencephalitis. Astrovirus VA1 is the most commonly identified astrovirus genotype from cases of human encephalitis, but

Astrovirus and norovirus infections and their association with diarrheal symptoms in immunocompromised children [PDF]
Human astroviruses are a common cause of viral gastroenteritis and are often underdiagnosed. While infections are typically mild or asymptomatic in immunocompetent hosts, astrovirus can cause prolonged and severe disease in immunocompromised individuals.

Indication of Cross-Species Transmission of Astrovirus Associated with Encephalitis in Sheep and Cattle [PDF]
We report the identification of a neurotropic astrovirus associated with encephalitis in a sheep. This virus is genetically almost identical to an astrovirus recently described in neurologically diseased cattle. The similarity indicates that astroviruses
