Background: Rotavirus infection is the most important cause of infectious, severe and dehydrating diarrhea death in children aged 5 under continues to have a significant impact on child morbidity mortality our countries. The aim this study was retrospectively determine prevalence rotavirus adenovirus patients presenting with gastroenteritis symptoms distribution pathogens according gender, age ...

Rotavirus circulates extraintestinally in animals used as models for rotavirus infection and in children. Rotavirus infection in mice was used to define host or viral factors that affect rotavirus viremia. Antigenemia was observed with homologous and heterologous rotaviruses, and neither age nor mouse strain genetics altered the occurrence of rotavirus antigenemia or viremia. Rotavirus RNA and ...

In order to effectively prevent any disease, it is necessary apply preventive measures in the most vulnerable group of this disease. case rotavirus, children. Since parents (guardians) take care children, their awareness very important, because only they can ensure timely vaccination children and train them personal hygiene rules. Rotavirus infection an urgent public health problem due high mor...

We recently showed that class I-restricted CD8+ T cells mediate clearance of primary rotavirus infection in mice: JHD knockout (JHD -/-) (B-cell-deficient) mice depleted of CD8+ T cells become chronically infected with murine rotavirus, and beta2 microglobulin knockout (beta2m -/-) mice have delayed but complete clearance of primary rotavirus infection. In the present work we have analyzed the ...

objective: group a rotaviruses (garv) are responsible for the vast majority of severe diarrhea worldwide that kills an estimated 600,000-870,000 children annually. since infantile gastroenteritis is a main health problem, therefore diagnosis and treatment of this disease is crucial. gene rearrangements have been detected in vitro during serial passages of the virus at a high multiplicity of inf...

BACKGROUND Rotavirus causes 500 000 deaths and millions of physician visits and hospitalizations per year, with worse outcomes and reduced vaccine efficacy in developing countries. We hypothesized that the gut microbiota might modulate rotavirus infection and/or antibody response and thus potentially play a role in such regional differences. METHODS The microbiota was ablated via germ-free or...

Transmission of rotavirus infection was studied in a birth cohort of children based in an urban slum in Vellore and their familial contacts. Contemporaneous samples from index patients and their familial contacts were collected for analysis in three different settings. Firstly, samples were collected from familial contacts during a period of rotavirus infection in children from the cohort. Seco...

A 2.5-year-old girl died suddenly during the course of rotavirus gastroenteritis. The autopsy showed encephalopathy with rotavirus systemic infection. Here, we provide evidence of rotavirus replication in multiple organs. Our findings clarify that rotavirus infection in children can extend beyond the intestinal tract through viremia.

Human rotavirus is a major etiologic agent for infantile diarrhea worldwide. It is responsible for up to 3.3 million deaths per year in children in developing countries. Various rapid and sensitive techniques have been developed to readily diagnose rotavirus gastroenteritis. In the present study, we compared the sensitivity and specificity of immunochromatography and RNA-polyacrylamide-gel elec...

Immunoglobulin A (IgA) is the primary immune response induced in the intestine by rotavirus infection, but vaccination with virus-like particles induces predominantly IgG, not IgA. To definitively assess the role of IgA in protection from rotavirus infection, IgA knockout mice, which are devoid of serum and secretory IgA, were infected and then rechallenged with murine rotavirus at either 6 wee...
