Establishment of a Novel Caco‐2‐Based Cell Culture System for Human Sapovirus Propagation
Human sapovirus (HuSaV), first identified in the 1970s, is a significant cause of acute gastroenteritis, particularly in young children. Despite its clinical significance, research on HuSaV has been limited due to the absence of a reliable cell culture ...

Human Sapovirus in Clams, Japan
Human sapovirus was detected in 4 of 57 clam packages by reverse transcription–PCR and sequence analysis. This represents the first finding of sapovirus contamination in food. Closely matching sequences have been detected in stool specimens from patients

Prevalence and Genetic Diversity of Adenovirus 40/41, Astrovirus, and Sapovirus in Children With Acute Gastroenteritis in Kansas City, 2011-2016. [PDF]
BACKGROUND Most U.S. acute gastroenteritis (AGE) episodes in children are attributed to norovirus, whereas very little information is available on adenovirus 40/41 (AdV40/41), astrovirus or sapovirus. The New Vaccine Surveillance Network (NVSN) conducted

Prevalence of sapovirus infection among hospitalized pediatric patients in Asia: A systematic review and meta-analysis [PDF]
BACKGROUND Acute gastroenteritis significantly affects children under five, with viral agents causing over 75% of cases. Sapovirus, from the Caliciviridae family, is increasingly recognized as a major cause of childhood diarrhea, especially in low and ...

Charting the Impact of Maternal Antibodies and Repeat Exposures on Sapovirus Immunity in Early Childhood From a Nicaraguan Birth Cohort. [PDF]
BACKGROUND Sapovirus is an important cause of acute gastroenteritis in childhood. While vaccines against sapovirus may reduce gastroenteritis burden, a major challenge to their development is a lack of information about natural immunity.
