Dengue is the most rapidly spreading mosquito-borne viral disease in the world; in India it has taken endemic proportion implicating all the four known dengue virus serotypes. Dengue infection is caused by a small, single stranded RNA virus comprising of four antigenically distinct virus serotypes designated as dengue virus type 1-4 (DENV-1-4). On the basis of genomic variations, each serotype is classified further into its genotypes. Epidemiological studies have shown that the emergence of a newer dengue serotype/genotype after an interval always leads to a major outbreak; therefore a continuous epidemiological surveillance is needed to monitor the epidemiology of dengue viruses. The present study was planned to identify the serotype/genotype of dengue viruses circulating in Uttar Pradesh, India. Of 433 dengue suspected patients, tested by reverse transcriptase PCR (RT-PCR), 136 were positive for dengue virus RNA. Of these, DENV-1, 2, and 3 were detected in 26 (19.1%), 77 (56.6%), and 33 (24.3%) patients, respectively. Of 136 RT-PCR positive samples, 24 samples were sequenced to identify their genotypes. For sequencing C-prM gene junction of dengue virus genome was chosen. Phylogenetic analysis of sequenced dengue strains revealed that all the 12 DENV-1 strains were genotype III, all the eight DENV-2 strains were genotype IV (Cosmopolitan genotype) and among four DENV-3 strains, three were genotype III and one was genotype I. In conclusion, the co-circulation of multiple dengue virus serotypes and genotypes is alarming in U.P., India.
登革热是世界上传播速度最快的蚊媒病毒病;在印度,它已成为地方性疾病,涉及所有已知的四种登革热病毒血清型。登革热感染是由一种小的、单链 RNA 病毒引起的,该病毒由四种具有不同抗原性的病毒血清型组成,分别命名为登革热病毒 1-4 型(DENV-1-4)。根据基因组的变异,每个血清型进一步分为其基因型。流行病学研究表明,在间隔一定时间后出现一种新的登革热血清型/基因型后,总会导致一次大爆发;因此,需要进行持续的流行病学监测,以监测登革热病毒的流行病学。本研究旨在确定在印度北方邦流行的登革热病毒的血清型/基因型。在 433 例疑似登革热患者中,通过逆转录聚合酶链反应(RT-PCR)检测,有 136 例患者的登革热病毒 RNA 呈阳性。其中,DENV-1、2 和 3 分别在 26(19.1%)、77(56.6%)和 33(24.3%)例患者中被检测到。在 136 例 RT-PCR 阳性样本中,有 24 个样本被测序以确定其基因型。选择登革病毒基因组的 C-prM 基因接头进行测序。对测序的登革热病毒株进行系统发育分析显示,所有 12 株 DENV-1 株均为基因型 III,所有 8 株 DENV-2 株均为基因型 IV(世界性基因型),而在 4 株 DENV-3 株中,有 3 株为基因型 III,1 株为基因型 I。总之,印度北方邦多种登革热病毒血清型和基因型的同时流行令人担忧。
