“…Reports were mainly from Asia probably due to consumption habits (eating raw or undercook food). However, cases directly associated with pork meat are limited to the study of Deest et al (2007), who reported the case of two patients who had eaten undercooked pig meat 4 weeks before suffering hepatitis E (Deest et al, 2007). Besides, in a case control study in Germany, raw pig meat and sausage were not associated with HEV cases (Wichmann et al, 2008).…”

Zoonotic hepatitis E, mainly caused by hepatitis E virus (HEV) genotype (gt) 3, is a foodborne disease that has emerged in Europe in recent decades. The main animal reservoir for genotype 3 is domestic pigs. Pig liver and liver derivates are considered the major risk products, and studies focused on the presence of HEV in pig muscles are scarce. The objective of the present study was to evaluate the presence of HEV in different organs and tissues of 45 apparently healthy pigs from nine Spanish slaughterhouses (50% national production) that could enter into the food supply chain. Anti-HEV antibodies were evaluated in serum by an ELISA test. Ten samples from each animal were analyzed for the presence of HEV RNA by reverse transcription realtime PCR (RT-qPCR). The overall seroprevalence obtained was 73.3% (33/45). From the 450 samples analyzed, a total of 26 RT-qPCR positive samples were identified in the liver (7/45), feces (6/45), kidney (5/45), heart (4/45), serum (3/45), and diaphragm (1/45). This is the first report on detection of HEV RNA in kidney and heart samples of naturally infected pigs. HEV RNA detection was negative for rib, bacon, lean ham, and loin samples. These findings indicate that pig meat could be considered as a low risk material for foodborne HEV infection.

“…A recent cluster of illnesses in southern France was associated with ingestion of figatelli , a pig liver sausage mainly eaten raw ( 3 ). Foodborne illness has been associated with ingestion of pig liver and pig muscle tissue ( 14 , 15 ). Our study showed that in the United Kingdom, pork products with high-volume nationwide consumption might be contaminated with HEV.…”

“…And the possible zoonotic transmission of HEV from pig to human has been recently reported [25][26][27]. However, Shukla et al [28] isolated a HEV of genotype-4 from a pig from India where HEV is highly endemic and where all described viruses isolated from humans are of genotype-1.…”

Molecular characterization and phylogenetic analysis of the complete genome of a hepatitis E virus from European swine

et al. 2008

Hepatitis E virus (HEV) has been detected in humans and in a broad range of animals, including pigs. For the first time the full-length genomic sequence of a HEV of European porcine origin, termed swX07-E1, was determined. Comparative analysis of 76 complete or nearly complete nucleotide sequences showed that swX07-E1 shares the highest nucleotide identity with Japanese swine HEV swJ8-5 and swJ12-4. The whole-genome phylogenetic analysis showed that swX07-E1 from Europe belongs to genotype-3 HEV, clusters with variants from Japan, Mongolia and Kyrgyzstan in subgroup 3c, but it is divergent from the prototype US HEV. Our analysis indicates that swX07-E1 represents a new subgroup of genotype-3 and that analysis of full-length sequences is necessary to discover new subgroups of HEV. According to our knowledge, swX07-E1 is the first full-length genome sequence of HEV from European swine. Knowledge about the full length HEV sequence from European swine is very important for understanding the HEV evolutionary events and the molecular mechanism of infection in human and in animals.
