Aptamer based diagnosis of crimean-congo hemorrhagic fever from clinical specimens

Abstract: Crimean-Congo hemorrhagic fever (CCHF) is an acute viral zoonotic disease. The widespread geographic distribution of the disease and the increase in the incidence of the disease from new regions, placed CCHF in a list of public health emergency contexts. The rapid diagnosis, in rural and remote areas where the majority of cases occur, is essential for patient management. Aptamers are considered as a specific and sensitive tool for being used in rapid diagnostic methods. The Nucleoprotein (NP) of the CCHF virus… Show more

“…Alternatively, CCHFV NP may be released into the circulation during infection [52] which could then be bound by circulating anti-NP antibody. TRIM21 may become exposed on the cell surface in response to IFNβ, cell stress or during apoptosis [21,53] and capture antibody-bound NP.…”

“…CCHFV is maintained in vertical and horizontal transmission cycles involving ixodid ticks and a variety of wild and domestic vertebrates, which do not show any sign of illness. The virus circulates in a number of tick genera, but Hyalomma ticks are the principal source of human infection, probably because both immature and adult forms actively seek hosts for blood meals required at each stage of maturation [ 21 , 22 ]. CCHF occurs most frequently among agricultural workers following the bite of an infected tick, and to a lesser extent among slaughterhouse workers exposed to the blood and tissues of infected livestock and medical personnel through contact with the body fluids of infected patients [ 21 ].…”

“…To estimate the Kd of all obtained aptamers in the 11th round of SELEX, orthogonal binding analyses by SPR were performed as described before [ 14 ]. In brief, 100 μl of 0.1 M NaOH and 2 M NaCl with a speed of 25 μl/min within 3 min were used in the cleaning stage.…”
