Diarrheal diseases are responsible for a significant proportion of mortality and morbidity all around the globe. The contribution of viruses to gastroenteritis incidences in humans is well established. In the present study, we have studied the prevalence of rotavirus, norovirus and enterovirus in Himachal Pradesh, a north Indian state. A total of 287 (111 children and 176 adults) stool samples of gastroenteritis patients were screened for the viruses using RT-PCR method. 34.5 % samples were positive for the viral pathogens of gastroenteritis. Rotavirus was the predominant virus detected in the study with 49.5 and 14.8 % positivity in children and adults, respectively. Enterovirus was present in 5.6 % cases whereas norovirus had least prevalence (1.4 %). Co infection (rotavirus and enterovirus) was witnessed at the prevalence rate of 0.6 %. Among different age groups, the prevalence of studied viruses was highest in the children belonging to the age groups of \5 years. Rotavirus infections were found to be significantly associated with vomiting and trend of higher rates of fever and dehydration was seen in children along with diarrhea. Seasonal distribution shows circulation of diarrheagenic viruses throughout the year. This is the first report of prevalence of various diarrheagenic viruses circulating in this region. The outcome of the study from this cohort provides a baseline data which can be used to design the preventive strategies in the otherwise unexplored state of Himachal Pradesh.

“…In brief, RNA samples were reverse transcribed and amplified in a one-step procedure using the primer pair Beg9-End9 for the VP7 gene and the primer pair con2-con3 for the VP4 gene. Subsequently, multiplex nested PCRs were carried out using primers RVG9, aBT1, aCT2, aET3, aDT4, aAT8, and aFT9 for VP7 and primers Humcon5, P [4], P [6], P [8], and P [9] for VP4.…”

“…Following earlier research on NoV and HBGAs, Huang et al demonstrated that the RV surface spike protein VP8* binds to human HBGAs (19). They showed that all three major human P genotypes, P [4], P [8], and P [6], recognize human HBGAs; P [4] and P [8] recognize the Lewis b and H1-type antigens, while P [6] recognizes only the H1-type antigen (19). Binding patterns in another RV genogroup, P[III], have also been characterized recently, revealing even greater diversity.…”

“…Enteric viruses such as rotavirus (RV) and norovirus (NoV) play critical roles in severe gastroenteritis in children (1,2). Before RV vaccine implementation, RV was identified in 40 to 60% of children hospitalized with acute gastroenteritis worldwide, whereas NoV was detected in 3 to 31% of such patients (3)(4)(5)(6). In countries in which RV vaccines are used nationwide, NoV is now the main cause of gastroenteritis in children (7,8).…”

“…Group A RVs can be classified into 27 G genotypes and 35 P genotypes, which fall within five P genogroups (10). The most commonly found RV G and P genotypes are G1, G2, G3, G4, P [4], and P [8].…”

Diarrhea with secondary decompensation is the main cause of morbidity and mortality in captive young rhesus macaque (Macaca mulatta) colonies. Approximately 25% of diarrhea cases with secondary decompensation are considered to be idiopathic chronic diarrhea. The purpose of this study was to investigate the suspected but not systematically examined association between rotavirus infection and diarrhea with secondary decompensation among young rhesus macaques at the California National Primate Research Center (CNPRC). Blood and stool samples were collected from 89 randomly selected young animals (age range: 6 months to 1.5 years) and were tested for the presence of rotavirus antibody, and rotavirus antigen, respectively, using enzymelinked immunosorbent assays (ELISA's). Test and clinical data were analyzed using Fisher's exact tests and multivariate logistic regression model. Our analysis indicates that rotavirus is endemic among young outdoor-housed rhesus macaques at the CNPRC. Although the relationship between detectable rotavirus antigen in stool and symptomatic diarrhea with secondary decompensation was not significant, there was a significant association between rotavirus seropositivity and a history of diarrhea with secondary decompensation within the past 6 months. While our cross-sectional and case-control study suggests an association between rotavirus infection and diarrhea with secondary decompensation among captive rhesus macaques, more extensive longitudinal studies on larger cohorts and with more intensive sample collection are needed to confirm these findings.
