Analysis of Hepatitis E Virus-Like Sequence in Chimpanzee
Hepatitis E virus (HEV), a member of the genus Hep-evirus, is a non-enveloped virus with a positive stranded RNA genome that is approximately 7.2 kb in length (1). It has been hypothesized that zoonosis is involved in the transmission of HEV (2, 3). Hepatitis E virus antibodies or genes have been reported to exist in many species of mammals, including monkeys (4, 5). Recently, divergent HEV str...
متن کاملSeroprevalence of Hepatitis E Virus Infection among Patients with Acute Hepatitis Symptoms in Ahvaz, Iran

It also causes fulminant hepatitis in pregnant women. Although HEV infection in Iran is endemic, there are numerous reports of epidemics caused by this infection in this part of the world. This study aimed to determine seropreval...
متن کاملHepatitis E Virus and Serum Level Aminotransferases in Blood Donors

متن کاملSequence-based genotyping of hepatitis B virus in general popula-tion
Background: Hepatitis B Virus (HBV) causes acute and chronic liver disease worldwide. HBV has eight genotypes (A to H) which is the reflection of its genome with their characteristic geographical distribution. Each genotype could have different pathogenic and therapeutic characteristics. There have been few records on HBV genotyping in general population from our region. This study aimed to...
متن کاملNovel hepatitis E like virus found in Swedish moose
A novel virus was detected in a sample collected from a Swedish moose (Alces alces). The virus was suggested as a member of the Hepeviridae family, although it was found to be highly divergent from the known four genotypes (gt1-4) of hepatitis E virus (HEV). Moose are regularly hunted for consumption in the whole of Scandinavia. Thus, the finding of this virus may be important from several aspe...
متن کاملSeroepidemiology of Hepatitis E Virus in Hemodialysis Patients in Gorgan-Iran
Abstract Background & Objective: Hepatitis E virus is one of the most common causes of acute infection in adults. Pregnant and transplant patients are more in risk of HEV infection. Fecal-oral is the main route of HEV transmission but recently transmission by blood transfusion has been observed. This study was aimed to determine the prevalence of HEV-Ab in hemodialysis patients in Gorgan, I...
