molecular analysis of hepatitis e virus from farm rabbits in inner mongolia, china and its successful propagation in a549 and plc/prf/5 cells.rabbit hepatitis e virus (hev) strains have recently been isolated in several areas of china and in the us and france. however, the host range, distribution and zoonotic potential of these hev strains remain unknown and their propagation in cultured cells has not yet been reported. a total of 211 4-month-old rabbits raised on a farm in inner mongolia were tested for the presence of anti-hev antibodies and hev rna. overall, 121 rabbits (57.3%) tested positive for anti-hev antibodies, and 151 (71. ...201223041252
swine and rabbits are the main reservoirs of hepatitis e virus in china: detection of hev rna in feces of farmed and wild animals.hepatitis e virus (hev) infection is recognized as a zoonosis. the prevalence of hev rna and anti-hev antibodies in many animal species has been reported, but the host range of hev is unclear. the aims of this study were to investigate hev infection in various animal species and to determine the reservoirs of hev. eight hundred twenty-two fecal samples from 17 mammal species and 67 fecal samples from 24 avian species were collected in china and tested for hev rna by rt-npcr. the products of pcr ...201526303139
molecular and serological survey of hepatitis e virus infection among domestic pigs in inner mongolia, china.to evaluate the prevalence and characteristics of swine hepatitis e virus (hev) infection in inner mongolia, china, serum samples obtained from 356 2- to 4-month-old pigs on 14 farms in inner mongolia were tested for the presence of anti-hev antibodies and hev rna. overall, 186 pigs (52%) tested positive for anti-hev antibodies, while 30 pigs (8%) had detectable hev rna levels. the 30 hev isolates recovered from the viremic pigs were phylogenetically classified into genotype 4 and differed from ...201020512514
hepatitis e virus infection in farmed rabbits and swine in the eastern chinese city lianyungang: showing no potential interspecies transmission.rabbit hev isolated recently from farmed rabbits in china has been shown experimentally to be able to infect both cynomolgus macaques and pigs. the purpose of the present study was to investigate the extent to which cross-species transmission of rabbit hev in farm settings is a significant factor in the spread of this zoonotic infection. rabbit and swine feces were collected from the same area in eastern china (lianyungang city) and analyzed by rt-pcr. partial genome sequencing of a 365 bp regio ...201425069969
first report of hepatitis e virus infection in sika deer in china.hepatitis e virus (hev), a single stranded rna, nonenveloped virus, belongs to the genus hepevirus, in the family of hepeviridae. in this study, 46 (5.43%) out of the 847 serum samples from sika deer (cervus nippon) were detected as seropositive with hepatitis e virus (hev) by enzyme linked immunosorbent assay (elisa). these samples were collected from inner mongolia and jilin and heilongjiang provinces in china, between october 2012 and october 2013. seroprevalence of hev infection in male and ...201525949999
hepatitis e virus seroprevalence among farmers, veterinarians and control subjects in jilin province, shandong province and inner mongolia autonomous region, china.china is commonly considered to be a hev-endemic region but limited epidemiological data for hev among farmers and veterinarians are available. thus, a case-control study was carried out to detect the seroprevalence and assess potential risk factors associated with the acquisition of hev infection by farmers and veterinarians in china from july 2013 to may 2015. three hundred veterinarians and 600 farmers recruited from jilin province, shandong province, and inner mongolia autonomous region and ...201727664799
