Studies on the Transmission of Human Viral Hepatitis to Marmoset Monkeys

Abstract: Inoculation of human serums or plasmas obtained during the early acute phase of viral hepatitis induced chemical and morphological hepatic disease in marmosets in two out of five experimental series. The disease was transmissible in series from marmoset to marmoset with an apparent increased virulence of the causative agent in later marmoset passages. The chemical evidence for the disease was elevation of the activity of SGOT and SICD and of serum bilirubin. In serial liver biopsy specimens interpreted under c… Show more

“…The availability of efficient cell culture systems and animal models makes these related viruses attractive in vitro and in vivo models for HCV. GBV-B, the closest relative of HCV, was recovered from a tamarin inoculated with blood from a surgeon suffering from acute hepatitis (16,54) and causes acute and chronic hepatitis in New World monkeys, which are believed to represent the natural hosts (10). Subsequent attempts to isolate GBV-B sequences from humans have failed.…”

“…Los genotipos I, II y III han sido aislados de muestras de origen humano (6,23,52). Los genotipos IV, V y VI, representados cada uno por una cepa única, han sido aislados de simios de los géneros Aotus, Macaca, Cercopithecus y Saguinus (10,18,22,53). Cabe aclarar que el genotipo III es el único grupo que incluye aislamientos de humanos y de primates.…”

“…Su principal ruta de transmisión es la fecaloral por consumo de agua y alimentos contaminados (2-5); también se puede transmitir por el contacto de persona a persona y, en raras ocasiones, por transfusiones de sangre o por vía sexual (4,(6)(7)(8)(9). La epidemiología de la infección por VHA se relaciona estrechamente con los bajos niveles de higiene (8,10,11).…”

“…Los genotipos I, II y III se han aislado principalmente de humanos (5,9) y, los genotipos IV, V y VI, de primates (4,6,10,11). El genotipo I se encuentra distribuido a nivel mundial; el subgenotipo IA es prevalente en Europa occidental y en América (5,12), y comprende la mayoría de cepas estudiadas aisladas de humanos, así como de muestras ambientales (13)(14)(15)(16).…”
