Noroviruses are a leading viral cause of acute gastroenteritis among humans. During the 2014-15 epidemic season, norovirus GII.17 was detected in rhesus monkeys in China. Genetic, structural, and challenge studies revealed virus mutations and verified the infections. Thus, cross-species transmission may occur, and monkeys may be a virus reservoir.
诺如病毒是人类急性胃肠炎的主要病毒病因。在2014 - 15年流行季节,中国的恒河猴中检测到了诺如病毒GII.17。基因、结构和攻毒研究揭示了病毒突变并证实了感染情况。因此,可能发生跨物种传播,猴子可能是病毒宿主。
