The family includes enterically transmitted small quasi-enveloped or non-enveloped positive-sense single-stranded RNA viruses infecting mammals and birds (subfamily ) or fish (). Hepatitis E virus (genus ) is responsible for self-limiting acute hepatitis in humans; the infection may become chronic in immunocompromised individuals and extrahepatic manifestations have been described. Avian hepatitis E virus (genus ) causes hepatitis-splenomegaly syndrome in chickens. This is a summary of the International Committee on Taxonomy of Viruses (ICTV) Report on the family , which is available at www.ictv.global/report/hepeviridae.
该病毒科包括肠道传播的小型准包膜或无包膜的正链单链RNA病毒,可感染哺乳动物和鸟类(亚科)或鱼类()。戊型肝炎病毒(属)可导致人类自限性急性肝炎;在免疫功能低下的个体中,感染可能会转为慢性,并已描述了肝外表现。禽戊型肝炎病毒(属)可引起鸡的肝炎-脾肿大综合征。这是国际病毒分类委员会(ICTV)关于该病毒科报告的摘要,可在www.ictv.global/report/hepeviridae上获取。
