Of 972 stool samples collected from infants and children with acute gastroenteritis in six different regions (Hokkaido, Tokyo, Shizuoka, Kyoto, Osaka, and Saga) of Japan during 2-year period from July 2014 to June 2016, 63 samples (6.5%) determined to be positive for enterovirus by multiplex RT-PCR were subjected to genotype determination based on the partial VP1 region using the CODEHOP method. Sixty-two strains were succeeded in genotyping and seventeen EV types were identified. The majority of the studied strains belonged to EV-A (30 of 62; 48.4%) and EV-B (31 of 62, 50%) species, and the remaining strain was of the EV-D species. The most frequently detected type was Coxsackievirus A5 (CV-A5) in 2014-2015 while was CV-B5 in 2015-2016. This study provides an insight into the genetic diversity of EV with the predominance of EV-A and EV-B species in Japanese infants and children with acute gastroenteritis during 2014-2016.
在 2014 年 7 月至 2016 年 6 月的 2 年期间,从日本六个不同地区(北海道、东京、静冈、京都、大阪和佐贺)的急性肠胃炎婴儿和儿童中收集了 972 份粪便样本,通过多重 RT-PCR 检测到 63 份(6.5%)为肠道病毒阳性样本,基于部分 VP1 区域,采用 CODEHOP 方法对其进行基因分型。成功对 62 株进行了基因分型,鉴定出 17 种 EV 型。研究的大多数菌株属于 EV-A(62 株中的 30 株;48.4%)和 EV-B(62 株中的 31 株,50%)种,其余一株属于 EV-D 种。在 2014-2015 年期间,最常检测到的类型是柯萨奇病毒 A5(CV-A5),而在 2015-2016 年期间,最常检测到的是 CV-B5。本研究深入了解了 2014-2016 年日本急性肠胃炎婴儿和儿童中肠道病毒的遗传多样性,以 EV-A 和 EV-B 为主。
