Seroprevalence of Jamestown Canyon virus in free-ranging caribou in North America is high. We demonstrate serum antibodies and RNA of the virus in blood and tissues of experimentally exposed reindeer with no clinical illness and minimal histopathologic changes. Caribou and reindeer may play a role in emergence and dissemination of vectorborne zoonoses in Arctic regions.
美洲野外驯鹿的 Jamestown Canyon 病毒血清阳性率很高。我们通过实验发现,无临床疾病且组织病理学变化极小的驯鹿血液和组织中存在病毒抗体和 RNA。驯鹿和北美驯鹿可能在北极地区媒介传播的人畜共患病的出现和传播中发挥作用。
