Charting the Impact of Maternal Antibodies and Repeat Exposures on Sapovirus Immunity in Early Childhood From a Nicaraguan Birth Cohort. [PDF]
Journal of Infectious DiseasesBACKGROUND: 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.

Human Norovirus and Sapovirus (Caliciviridae)
, 2021 The Caliciviridae family includes human norovirus and sapovirus. These are a diverse set of viruses causing acute gastroenteritis (AGE) in people of all ages, with norovirus being responsible for approximately 20% of all AGE worldwide and sapovirus 3%–17%

The RNA Helicase eIF4A Is Required for Sapovirus Translation [PDF]
Journal of Virology, 2016 ABSTRACT The eukaryotic initiation factor 4A (eIF4A) is a DEAD box helicase that unwinds RNA structure in the 5′ untranslated region (UTR) of mRNAs. Here, we investigated the role of eIF4A in porcine sapovirus VPg-dependent translation. Using inhibitors and dominant-negative mutants, we found that eIF4A is required for viral translation and ...

Norovirus and Sapovirus Epidemiology and Strain Characteristics among Navajo and Apache Infants.
PLoS ONE, 2017 Norovirus and sapovirus are important causes of acute gastroenteritis (AGE) among American Indian infants. We investigated the prevalence and molecular epidemiology of norovirus and sapovirus in American Indian infants who have historically experienced a

Intergenogroup Recombinant Sapovirus in Japan, 2007–2008
Emerging Infectious Diseases, 2009 We investigated the incidence of sapovirus (SaV)-associated gastroenteritis in infants and children in Japan during 2007-2008 and characterized the diversity of SaV-positive strains. SaV was detected in 19 (4%) of 477 fecal specimens. The leading genogroup (79%, 15 cases) comprised intergenogroup recombinant SaVs (GII/GIV).

Asymptomatic Shedding of Enteric Viruses in Young Children: Insights From a Year-Long Prospective Surveillance Study. [PDF]
J Med VirolABSTRACT Enteric viruses are a leading cause of gastroenteritis in young children. With the increasing use of multiplex PCR, these viruses are frequently detected in asymptomatic children. In this prospective study conducted from March 2024 to February 2025, rectal swabs were collected from children < 5 years with no history of diarrhea or vomiting in ...
