Prevalence of equine hepacivirus infection in Mongolia

Virus Research, 2020
Equine hepacivirus (EHV) belongs to the hepacivirus A and is related to hepatitis C virus (HCV). This virus shows hepatic tropism and is known to chronically infect horses. EHV has been reported from various countries, but the prevalence in Mongolia, where large horse populations are pastured, remains unknown.

First identification and phylogenetic analysis of equine hepacivirus in Korea

Infection, Genetics and Evolution, 2017
Non-primate hepacivirus (NPHV) corresponds a group of isolates recently characterized in horses and dogs that present similar genomic organization and are closely related to hepatitis C virus. Since canine hapacivirus, NPHV identified in dogs, was first discovered in dogs in the United States, equine hepacivirus (EqHV, NPHV identified in horses) has ...

Comprehensive evolutionary and phylogenetic analysis of Hepacivirus N (HNV)

Journal of General Virology, 2018
Hepaciviruses (HVs) have been detected in several domestic and wild animals and present high genetic diversity. The actual classification divides the genus Hepacivirus into 14 species (A-N), according to their phylogenetic relationships, including the bovine hepacivirus [Hepacivirus N (HNV)].

A highly divergent hepacivirus-like flavivirus in domestic ducks

Journal of General Virology, 2019
Using random amplification and reverse transcription-PCR, a novel RNA virus was detected in sera of domestic ducks. The full genome of the virus was determined for three strains, identifying the first hepacivirus-like flavivirus in birds. The virus, that we tentatively named duck hepacivirus-like virus (DuHV), possesses several unique molecular ...

Discovery of a Rodent Hepacivirus in the Brazilian Amazon [PDF]

Viruses
In the eastern Brazilian Amazon, the Viseu municipality has almost 70% of its territory deforested. Monitoring viruses from wildlife hosts enables the prevention and control of epizootic events and outbreaks.

Chronic hepatitis in horses with persistent equine hepacivirus infection. [PDF]

Equine Vet J
Background Equine hepacivirus (EqHV) is closely related to hepatitis C virus (HCV), which causes persistent infection and chronic hepatitis in people. Information on persistent EqHV infection and hepatitis is limited.
