Felipivirus is a feline picornavirus that was first discovered in fecal samples from stray cats in Hong Kong in 2012, and has been reported only in a few cases. We previously reported next-generation sequencing (NGS) analyses of fecal samples from 20 adult cats in an animal shelter in Tokyo, Japan, and now, in this study, report detection of felipivirus A2 from the same samples. Reverse transcription (RT)-PCR demonstrated the presence of the same virus in the 8 cats. Phylogenetic analyzes demonstrated a close relationship of the virus with some picornaviruses from wild animals such as raccoon dog and marmot. This study highlights the importance of surveillance of cats in animal shelters to detect viruses potentially originated from wild animals.
猫细小核糖核酸病毒是一种猫小核糖核酸病毒，于2012年首次在香港流浪猫的粪便样本中发现，仅在少数病例中被报道。我们之前报告了对日本东京一家动物收容所中20只成年猫的粪便样本进行的下一代测序（NGS）分析，现在，在本研究中，报告了从相同样本中检测到猫细小核糖核酸病毒A2。逆转录（RT）-PCR证明8只猫中存在相同病毒。系统发育分析表明该病毒与一些来自野生动物如貉和土拨鼠的小核糖核酸病毒关系密切。本研究强调了对动物收容所中的猫进行监测以检测可能源自野生动物的病毒的重要性。
