ABSTRACT

The State of Pará comprises 26% of Brazilian Amazon region, where a large diversity of arboviruses has been described. This study sought to assess the prevalence and distribution of hemagglutination inhibition (HI) antibodies against antigens of four alphaviruses (Togaviridae: Alphavirus ) from the species: Eastern equine encephalitis (EEEV), Western equine encephalitis (WEEV), Mayaro virus (MAYV), and Mucambo virus (MUCV) in 753 serum samples of horses in Pará State, Brazil. All investigated arboviruses were detected and indicate that horses are susceptible to these alphaviruses, and show evidences of their active circulation in farm animals in the Brazilian Amazon.(AU)


O estado do Pará corresponde a 26% da Amazônia brasileira, onde uma grande diversidade de arbovírus foi descrita. Este estudo procurou avaliar a prevalência e a distribuição de anticorpos inibidores da hemaglutinação (IH) contra antígenos de quatro alfavirus (Togaviridae: Alphavirus ), das espécies: Vírus da encefalite equina do leste (EEEV), Vírus da encefalite equina do oeste (WEEV), Vírus mayaro (MAYV) e Vírus mucambo (MUCV), de 753 amostras de soro de equinos no estado do Pará, Brasil. Todos os arbovirus pesquisados foram detectados, indicando que os equinos são suscetíveis a esses Alphavirus e mostrando evidências de sua circulação ativa em animais de fazenda na Amazônia brasileira.(AU)
