Secretor status strongly influences the incidence of symptomatic norovirus infection in a genotype-dependent manner in a Nicaraguan birth cohort.

open access: yesJournal of Infectious Diseases, 2021
BACKGROUND The role of histo-blood group on the burden and severity of norovirus gastroenteritis in young infants has not been well documented. METHODS Norovirus gastroenteritis was assessed in 443 Nicaraguan children followed from birth until 3 years ...

Norovirus Infection and Disease in an Ecuadorian Birth Cohort: Association of Certain Norovirus Genotypes With Host FUT2 Secretor Status. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
BACKGROUND: Although norovirus is the most common cause of gastroenteritis, there are few data on the community incidence of infection/disease or the patterns of acquired immunity or innate resistance to norovirus.

Infection control for norovirus [PDF]

open access: yesClinical Microbiology and Infection, 2014
Norovirus infections are notoriously difficult to prevent and control, owing to their low infectious dose, high shedding titre, and environmental stability. The virus can spread through multiple transmission routes, of which person-to-person and foodborne are the most important.

Infection of neonatal mice with the murine norovirus strain WU23 is a robust model to study norovirus pathogenesis

open access: yesLab animal, 2023
A mouse model to study norovirus pathogenesis is described. The murine norovirus strain WU23, originally isolated from an intestinal site, induces severe but self-resolving diarrhea in neonates, reflecting the pathology observed during human norovirus ...

Glycan Recognition in Human Norovirus Infections [PDF]

open access: yesViruses, 2021
Recognition of cell-surface glycans is an important step in the attachment of several viruses to susceptible host cells. The molecular basis of glycan interactions and their functional consequences are well studied for human norovirus (HuNoV), an important gastrointestinal pathogen.

Fucose Binding Cancels out Mechanical Differences between Distinct Human Noroviruses

open access: yesViruses, 2023
The majority of nonbacterial gastroenteritis in humans and livestock is caused by noroviruses. Like most RNA viruses, frequent mutations result in various norovirus variants.

Identification of immune and viral correlates of norovirus protective immunity through comparative study of intra-cluster norovirus strains.

open access: yesPLoS Pathogens, 2013
Whether or not primary norovirus infections induce protective immunity has become a controversial issue, potentially confounded by the comparison of data from genetically distinct norovirus strains.

Risk factors for norovirus infection in healthcare workers during nosocomial outbreaks: a cross-sectional study

open access: yesAntimicrobial Resistance and Infection Control, 2021
Background Norovirus outbreaks cause severe medico-socio-economic problems affecting healthcare workers and patients. The aim of the study was to investigate prevalence of norovirus infection and risk factors for infection in healthcare workers during ...
