RESUMO
Os astrovírus humanos (HAstVs) pertencem a família Astroviridae e são associados agastrenterite aguda (GA) em crianças menores de cinco anos, tanto nos paísesdesenvolvidos como naqueles em desenvolvimento, o que os tornam de interesse nocampo da Saúde Pública. A família Astroviridae é dividida em dois gênerosAvastrovirus e Mamastrovirus. No gênero Mamastrovirus, encontram-se os astrovirusassociados à infecção em mamíferos, tanto humanos como animais. Até 2008, osastrovirus associados a doenças em humanos eram restritos a oito genótipos,conhecidos como HAstV 1-8. A partir de então novos HAstVs foram sendo descritos,associados a doenças em humanos, como os HAstVs MLB1-3 e os HAstVs VA1-4.Opresente estudo consiste no estudo epidemiológicos retrospectivos (1994 a 2011) paradetecção e caracterização molecular de HAstV em amostras de fezes provenientes decrianças com menos de cinco anos de idade com GA, em diferentes regiões do BrasilNordeste, Sudeste e Sul. Incluem-se neste trabalho três estudos 1) Estudo dosHAstV em casos esporádicos de GA ocorridos em crianças menores de cinco anos deidade, em três regiões brasileiras (Nordeste, Sudeste e Sul), durante o período de2005 a 2011, incluindo a pesquisa dos novos HAstV; 2) Estudo dos HAstV em criançascom GA, atendidas na creche Bertha Lutz, FIOCRUZ-RJ, durante o período de janeirode 1994 a dezembro de 2008; 3)...
ABSTRACT
Human astrovirus (HAstVs), belong to Astroviridae family, and are associatedwith acute gastroenteritis (GA) in children under five years-old, both indeveloped and in developing countries, which makes them of interest in thePublic Health field. The Astroviridae family is divided into two generaAvastrovirus and Mamastrovirus. Mamastrovirus are the astrovirusesassociated to infection in mammals, both humans and animals. By 2008, theastrovirus associated with human disease were restricted to eight genotypes,known as HAstV 1-8. Since then, new HAstVs have been described, associatedwith human disease, such as HAstVs MLB1-3 and HAstVs VA1-4. The presentstudy is the retrospective epidemiological study (1994 to 2011) for the detectionand molecular characterization of HAstV in stool samples from children underfive years old presenting GA, in different regions of Brazil Northeast, Southeastand South. Three studies are presented 1) Study of HAstV in sporadic cases ofGA occurred in children under five years old in three Brazilian regions(Northeast, Southeast and South) from 2005 to 2011, including the descriptionof a new HAstV; 2) Study of HAstV in children with GA, attending the day careBertha Lutz, FIOCRUZ-RJ from January 1994 to December 2008 and 3) Studyof HAstV in children under two years old presenting GA and hospitalized inNiteroi, Rio de Janeiro from April to September 2003. The detection of HAstVwas performed using different protocols for detection and molecularcharacterization such as Reverse–transcriptase polymerase chain reaction,(RT- PCR), Single step RT -PCR (OneStep RT-PCR) and RealTime RT- PCR.The HAstV detected were characterized by partial sequencing of ORF2 regionof the viral genome. The study 1 demonstrated the HAstV detection frequencyin 7.1 % of samples, and described the first ASTV MLB1 in Brazil. Themolecular characterization identified the circulation genotypes HAstV -1, 2, 3, 4,5, 6 and 8...
