Molecular characterization of rabies virus isolated from non-haematophagous bats in Brazil

Abstract: Introduction:Rabies is an important zoonosis that causes thousands of deaths worldwide each year. Although the terrestrial cycle, mainly transmitted by dogs, is controlled in Brazil, the aerial cycle remains a serious public health issue, besides the economic problem. In the aerial cycle, the haematophagous bat Desmodus rotundus is the main source of infection, where several different species of non-haematophagous bats can be infected and can transmit the virus. Methods: The aim of this work was to study the e… Show more

“…According to antigenic and genetic characterization studies of rabies, bats are among the most important reservoirs and vectors of the rabies virus around the world 6,7 . In recent years, however, certain human rabies cases associated with bat variants have been detected in the absence of skin lesions that were attributable to bat bites and in cases that lacked any documented history of bat bites.…”

“…Fonte: Diaz et al, 1994 No Brasil, encontram-se as variantes antigênicas 2, 3, 4 e 6, entretanto, estudos utilizando este painel de AcM também demonstram a existência de outros quatro perfis antigênicos não compatíveis com os perfis esperados para este painel, os quais foram encontrados em diferentes gêneros de morcegos insetívoros (FAVORETTO et al, 2002;OLIVEIRA, 2009;ALBAS et al, 2011;QUEIROZ et al, 2012). Lasiurus blosseviilli e Lasiurus cinereus) também são mantidas por morcegos brasileiros (PIÑERO et al, 2012;YUNG et al, 2012).…”

“…Pelo fato de que a maioria destas amostras serem do estado de São Paulo, pouco se conhece sobre a distribuição destas linhagens em outras regiões do país. Isto também dificulta a realização de estudos filogeográficos para a identificação de um padrão de distribuição de subgrupos dentro de uma linhagem, relacionados a distribuição geográfica de seus reservatórios (OLIVEIRA, 2009;OLIVEIRA et al, 2010;ALBAS et al, 2011;ALLENDORF et al, 2012;MENOZZI, 2012 FAVORETTO et al, 2002;CUNHA, 2006;KOBAYASHI et al, 2005KOBAYASHI et al, , 2007OLIVEIRA, 2009;OLIVEIRA et al, 2010;ALBAS et al,2011;QUEIROZ et al, 2011;MENOZZI, 2012;ALLENDORF et al, 2012).
