Human Adenoviruses are recognized pathogens, causing a broad spectrum of diseases. Serotype identification is critical for epidemiological surveillance, detection of new strains and understanding of HAdvs pathogenesis. Little data is available about HAdvs subtypes in Latin America.
In this study, we have molecularly characterized 213 adenoviruses collected from ILI presenting patients, during 2006-08, in Central and South America.
Our results indicate that 161(76%) adenoviruses belong to subgroup C, 45 (21%) to subgroup B and 7 (3%) to subtype E4.
人类腺病毒是公认的病原体,可引起广泛的疾病。血清型鉴定对于流行病学监测、新菌株的检测以及了解 HAdvs 发病机制至关重要。关于拉丁美洲的 HAdvs 亚型,数据很少。
在这项研究中,我们对 2006-08 年期间从中美洲和南美洲出现 ILI 症状的患者中收集的 213 株腺病毒进行了分子特征分析。
我们的结果表明,161 株(76%)腺病毒属于 C 亚群,45 株(21%)属于 B 亚群,7 株(3%)属于 E4 亚型。
