Hlodavci jako rezervoár hantavirů
KAMIŠ, Jan
This study reveals the presence of hantaviruses in free-living rodents and insectivores in urban areas in the Czech Republic. A large number of hantavirus reservoir hosts were tested for hantavirus RNA in different tissues, using universal and specific primers for amplification of the large and medium fragments of hantavirus genomic RNA. Phylogenetic relationships of obtained nucleotide sequences of hantaviruses were reconstructed. Four different species of hantaviruses were detected, including two species pathogenic (or potentially pathogenic) for humans, suggesting a threat for public health. Additionally, inter-family spillover infections and hantavirus species-associated tissue tropism were recorded in rodent hosts.
