ROTAVIRUS AND AUTOIMMUNITY. [PDF]

Journal of Infection, 2020
Rotavirus, a major etiological agent of acute diarrhea in children worldwide, has historically been linked to autoimmunity. In the last few years, several physiopathological approaches have been proposed to explain the leading mechanism triggering autoimmunity, from the old concept of molecular mimicry to the emerging theory of bystander activation and

Seroepidemiology of Human Non-Species A Rotavirus Infections in Valencia, Spain. [PDF]

J Med Virol
ABSTRACT Species A rotavirus (RVA) is a major cause of acute gastroenteritis in children. However, three other rotavirus species (RVB, RVC, and RVH) are also able to infect humans. It has been suggested that vaccination against RVA could facilitate an increase of non‐A rotavirus infections. We investigated the antibody prevalence against RVA, RVB, RVC,

Rotavirus infection [PDF]

Nature Reviews Disease Primers, 2017
Rotavirus infections are a leading cause of severe, dehydrating gastroenteritis in children 200,000 deaths annually, mostly in low-income countries. Rotavirus primarily infects enterocytes and induces diarrhoea through the destruction of absorptive enterocytes (leading to malabsorption), intestinal secretion stimulated by rotavirus non-structural ...

Rotavirus [PDF]

Emerging Infectious Diseases, 1998
Rotavirus, the most common diarrheal pathogen in children worldwide, causes approximately one third of diarrhea-associated hospitalizations and 800,000 deaths per year. Because natural infection reduces the incidence and severity of subsequent episodes, rotavirus diarrhea might be controlled through vaccination.

Continuous detection and genetic diversity of human rotavirus A in sewage in eastern China, 2013–2014

Virology Journal, 2016
BackgroundRotavirus is the leading viral agent for pediatric gastroenteritis. However, the case-based surveillance for rotavirus is limited in China, and its circulation in the environment is not well investigated.MethodsFrom 2013 to 2014, rotavirus was ...

A FUT2 gene common polymorphism determines resistance to rotavirus A of the P[8] genotype.

Journal of Infectious Diseases, 2014
Attachment to carbohydrates of the histo-blood group type of several human Rotavirus strains (RVA) has recently been described. Synthesis of these ligands requires a functional FUT2 enzyme, suggesting that FUT2 null homozygote (ie, nonsecretor ...

Global impact of rotavirus vaccination on diarrhea hospitalizations and deaths among children <5 years old: 2006-2019.

Journal of Infectious Diseases, 2020
Since 2006, more than 100 countries have introduced rotavirus vaccine into their immunization programs. We reviewed published data on relative reductions of rotavirus hospitalizations, acute gastroenteritis (AGE) hospitalizations, and AGE deaths among ...

Rotavirus

Microbiology Spectrum, 2013
ABSTRACTRotaviruses (RV) are ubiquitous, highly infectious, segmented double-stranded RNA genome viruses of importance in public health because of the severe acute gastroenteritis they cause in young children and many animal species. They are very well adapted to their host, with symptomatic and asymptomatic reinfections being virtually universal ...
