Rotavirus VP8*: Phylogeny, Host Range, and Interaction with Histo-Blood Group Antigens [PDF]
ABSTRACT The distal portion of rotavirus (RV) VP4 spike protein (VP8*) is implicated in binding to cellular receptors, thereby facilitating viral attachment and entry. While VP8* of some animal RVs engage sialic acid, human RVs often attach to and enter cells in a sialic acid-independent manner.

Interaction between noroviruses and human histo-blood group antigens
Norovirus (NOV), a member of the family Caliciviridae, is a major cause of water and food-borne acute nonbacterial gastroenteritis, and forms many morphologically similar but antigenically diverse groups of viruses. The virus-like particles (VLPs) derived from the prototype strain of NoV, Norwalk virus (NV/68), bind to histo-blood group antigens (HBGAs)

Molecular Epidemiology of Sapovirus in Children Living in the Northwest Amazon Region
Sapovirus is an important etiological agent of acute gastroenteritis (AGE), mainly in children under 5 years old living in lower-income communities. Eighteen identified sapovirus genotypes have been observed to infect humans. The aim of this study was to

Human Noroviruses' Fondness for Histo-Blood Group Antigens [PDF]
ABSTRACT Human noroviruses are the dominant cause of outbreaks of gastroenteritis around the world. Human noroviruses interact with the polymorphic human histo-blood group antigens (HBGAs), and this interaction is thought to be important for infection. Indeed, synthetic HBGAs or HBGA-expressing enteric bacteria were shown to enhance norovirus

Bovine Nebovirus Interacts with a Wide Spectrum of Histo-Blood Group Antigens [PDF]
ABSTRACT Some viruses within the Caliciviridae family initiate their replication cycle by attachment to cell surface carbohydrate moieties, histo-blood group antigens (HBGAs), and/or terminal sialic acids (SAs).

Histo-blood group antigens: a common niche for norovirus and rotavirus
Noroviruses (NoVs) and rotaviruses (RVs), the two most important causes of viral acute gastroenteritis, are found to recognise histo-blood group antigens (HBGAs) as receptors or ligands for attachment. Human HBGAs are highly polymorphic containing ABO, secretor and Lewis antigens.

Pseudomonas aeruginosa is not a common enteric pathogen. The association between human histo-blood group antigens (HBGAs) and P. aeruginosa enteric infection has not yet been studied.We collected stool samples from healthy children under 2 years of age for P. aeruginosa gut colonization rate.

DNA Methylation of the ABO Promoter Underlies Loss of ABO Allelic Expression in a Significant Proportion of Leukemic Patients [PDF]
Background: Loss of A, B and H antigens from the red blood cells of patients with myeloid malignancies is a frequent occurrence. Previously, we have reported alterations in ABH antigens on the red blood cells of 55% of patients with myeloid malignancies.
