Abstract
Enteroviruses are one of the most common causative agents of infectious diseases of the central nervous system. They are characterized by genetic variability, the ability to infect a wide range of cells, including brain microglial cells and astrocytes, and persist in the central nervous system tissue, causing delayed and chronic diseases. The review presents data on the basis of neurovirulence of non-polio enteroviruses and the most common pathogens causing enteroviral neuroinfections.

Abstract
Enterovirus D68 (EV-D68), a member of Enterovirus genus of the Picornaviridae family, mainly causes respiratory system-related diseases as well as neurological complications in some patients. At present, there is no effective vaccine or treatment for the virus. The aim of this research was to systematically analyse the molecular epidemiology, recombination and changes in the epitope of EV-D68 in China from 2008 to 2022. Through phylogenetic analysis based on VP1 sequences, it was found that there was limited information about EV-D68 infection before 2011 and that EV-D68 infection was dominated by the A2 gene subtype from 2011 to 2013 and the B3 genotype from 2014 to 2018, during which A2 and B3 were coprevalent and alternately prevalent. We also constructed a phylogenetic tree using the EV-D68 full-length genome sequences, and the genotype of each sequence was consistent with that of the VP1 sequence evolutionary tree. Recombination analysis showed that MH341715 underwent intertypic recombination with the A2 genotype MH341729 at the 5' untranslated region (5'UTR) and that P1-P3 underwent recombination with the B3 genotype MH341712. The capsid protein VP1 is one of the most important structural proteins. In VP1, the BC-loop (89-105 amino acids) and DE-loop (140-152 amino acids) are the most variable domains on the surface of the virus and are associated with epitopes. In this study, it was found that the dominant amino acid composition of the BC-loop and DE-loop continued to change with the epidemic of the virus; the amino acid composition also differed in different regions of the same genotypes. The ongoing genomic and molecular epidemiology of EV-D68 remains important for predicting emergence of new viruses and preventing major outbreaks of respiratory diseases.

Sci Rep 2023; 13:17359. [PMID: 37833525 PMCID: PMC10576028 DOI: 10.1038/s41598-023-44644-z] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/16/2023] [Accepted: 10/11/2023] [Indexed: 10/15/2023] Open
Abstract
Hand, foot and mouth disease (HFMD) is a public health threat worldwide, particularly in the Asia-Pacific region. Enterovirus A71 (EV-A71), coxsackievirus A16 (CVA16), and CVA6 are the major pathogens causing HFMD outbreaks in several countries, including Thailand. We retrieved 385 VP1 nucleotide sequences, comprising 228 EV-A71, 33 CVA16, and 124 CVA6, deposited in the databases between 2000 and 2022 for molecular evolutionary characterization using Bayesian phylogeny. All EV-A71 identified belonged to genotype B, subgenotypes B4, and B5, and to genotype C, subgenotypes C1, C2, C4a, C4b, and C5. The analyzes demonstrated these viruses' co-circulation and subgenotypic changes throughout the past two decades. The CVA16 was grouped in genotype B1, predominantly subgenotype B1a, and the CVA6 was grouped in subgenotype D3, clades 1-4. The tMRCA of EV-A71 genotypes B and C, CVA16 B1, and CVA6 D3 dated 1993.79, 1982.62, 1995.86, and 2007.31, respectively, suggesting that the viruses were likely introduced and cryptically circulated in Thailand before the HFMD cases were recognized. We demonstrated these viruses' fluctuation and cyclical pattern throughout the two decades of observation. This study provided insight into evolutionary dynamics concerning molecular epidemiology and supported the selection of current genotype-matched vaccines, vaccine development, and implementation.

Abstract
Human enterovirus causes various clinical manifestations in the form of rashes, febrile illness, flu-like illness, uveitis, hand-foot-mouth disease (HFMD), herpangina, meningitis, and encephalitis. Enterovirus A71 and coxsackievirus are significant causes of epidemic HFMD worldwide, especially in children aged from birth to five years old. The enterovirus genotype variants causing HFMD epidemics have been reported increasingly worldwide in the last decade. We aim to use simple and robust molecular tools to investigate human enteroviruses circulating among kindergarten students at genotype and subgenotype levels. With the partial 5'-UTR sequencing analysis as a low-resolution preliminary grouping tool, ten enterovirus A71 (EV-A71) and coxsackievirus clusters were identified among 18 symptomatic cases and 14 asymptomatic cases in five kindergartens in Bangkok, Thailand, between July 2019 and January 2020. Two occurrences of a single clone causing an infection cluster were identified (EV-A71 C1-like subgenotype and coxsackievirus A6). Random amplification-based sequencing using MinION (Oxford Nanopore Technology) helped identify viral transmission between two closely related clones. Diverse genotypes co-circulating among children in kindergartens are reservoirs for new genotype variants emerging, which might be more virulent or better at immune escape. Surveillance of highly contagious enterovirus in communities is essential for disease notifications and controls.

Abstract
Enterovirus 71 (EV71) and coxsackievirus (CV-A16) are the major etiological agents of hand, foot and mouth disease (HFMD). This report reviewed the full-length genomic sequences of EV71 identified in different provinces of China between 1998 and 2019 (a total of 312) in addition to eight worldwide reference genomes to address the genomic evolution and genetic events. The main prevalent EV71 strians in China are C4 genotypes, co-circulating with a few A, B5, C1, and C2 subgenotypes. A new emerging subgenotype in China was identified and classified as B6 genotype. Phylogeographic analysis revealed multiple branches, where a Jiangsu strain 2006-52-9 (GenBank ID: KP266579.1) was linked to different subgenotypes through multiple long mutant branches, including the CV-A16 viruses through the A genotype. Furthermore, identification of 28 natural recombination events suggests that the emergence of new genotypes are associated with intratypic recombination involving EV71 strains and intertypic recombination between EV71 and CV-A16 strains. Compared with the structural proteins, the non-structural proteins of EV71 seem to be highly variable with the highest variable regions of peptidase C3 (3C protein), P2A, and the N-terminus of RNA-dependent RNA polymerase. This study updates the phylogenetic and phylogeographic information of EV71 and provides clues to the emergence of new genotypes of EV71 based on genetics.

Detection and genetic analysis of porcine circovirus-like virus in pigs with diarrhea between 2016 and 2021 in Henan and Shanxi provinces of China. Arch Virol 2023; 168:76. [PMID: 36709234 DOI: 10.1007/s00705-023-05701-0] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/01/2022] [Accepted: 12/06/2022] [Indexed: 01/29/2023]
Abstract
Porcine circovirus-like virus (PCLV) is a recently discovered virus that may be associated with diarrhea in pigs. To investigate the epidemic profile and genetic characteristics of this virus, 175 clinical samples (141 intestinal samples, 17 blood samples, and 17 fecal samples) were collected from diseased piglets during outbreaks of diarrhea from 33 pig farms in 19 cities of Henan and Shanxi provinces of China between 2016 and 2021 and were screened by PCR for the presence of PCLV. The results showed that the positive rate for PCLV was 32% (56/175) at the sample level, 60.6% (20/33) at the farm level, and 57.9% (11/19) at the city level, which varied from 5.88% to 44.12% between 2016 and 2021. It was also found that PCLV occurred in coinfections with porcine circovirus type 2 (PCV2), PCV3, PCV4, porcine epidemic diarrhea virus, and porcine reproductive and respiratory syndrome virus, but no nucleic acids were detected for transmissible gastroenteritis virus, porcine deltacoronavirus, or porcine rotavirus in piglets with diarrhea. Notably, PCLV was detected in 13 diarrheal piglets from four different farms that were negative for the other porcine viruses. These findings suggest that PCLV may be associated with porcine diarrhea and that it has been circulating in piglets in Henan and Shanxi provinces of China. In addition, the complete genomes of 13 PCLV strains were sequenced and found to share 35.4%-91.0% nucleotide sequence identity with sequences available in the GenBank database. Phylogenetic analysis based on Rep amino acid sequences revealed that the 13 PCLV strains from this study clustered in group 1 and were closely related to eight Chinese PCLV strains, Bo-Circo-like virus CH, American strains 21 and 22, and Hungarian strains 288_4 and 302_4, but they differed genetically from seven other foreign PCLV strains. The whole genome and rep gene of 13 PCLV strains in this study were 72.2%-82% and 83.8%-89.7% identical, respectively, to those of Bo-Circo-like virus strain CH, indicating that PCLV is a novel virus in pigs that may be involved in cross-species transmission. Evidence of a recombination event was found in the rep region of the 13 PCLV strains sequenced. This study enriches the epidemiological data on PCLV infection in pigs in China and lays a foundation for further study on the pathogenesis of PCLV.

Abstract
A metavirome analysis was performed and detected bopivirus in the diarrhoeal fecal samples of goats in China. A total of 136 fecal samples were collected from yeanlings between the dates of June 2021 and January 2022 in Sichuan province, China. Moreover, "Bopivirus B" strains were detected by a specific RT-PCR targeting the 3D gene of the virus. The results showed that the overall detection rate of "Bopivirus B" was 19.12% (26/136). Additionally, there was a higher detection rate (24.05%, 19/79) in the fecal samples collected from yeanlings with diarrhea compared to those from asymptomatic animals (12.28%, 7/57). In these samples, no other common diarrhea-causing pathogens were detected except for three enteric viruses, namely caprine enterovirus, caprine kobuvirus and caprine hunnivirus (with detection rates of 13.97, 13.97, and 8.82%, respectively). Subsequently, full-length VP4, VP2, VP3, and VP1 genes from "Bopivirus B"-positive samples were amplified, cloned, sequenced, and analyzed. The phylogenetic analysis performed on the VP1 genes revealed that the identified bopivirus belonged to genotype B1 (seven strains) and B2 (three strains) and presented a high genetic diversity. Furthermore, a complete genome sequence of a "Bopivirus B" strain (SWUN/B1/2022) was obtained using PCR from fecal sample of a diarrhoeal yeanling. The complete genome was 7,309 nucleotides in length with a standard picornavirus genome organization, and shares 93.10% and 91.10% nucleotide similarity with bopivirus B1 genotype strain ovine/TB14/2010-HUN and bopivirus B2 genotype strain goat/AGK16/2020-HUN, respectively. According to the species classification criteria put forward by the International Committee on Taxonomy of Viruses and VP1 genotype, the strain SWUN/B1/2022 belongs to the bopivirus B1. This strain has unique amino acid substitutions in the VP4, VP2, VP3, and VP1 genes. Moreover, genomic recombination analysis revealed that this strain may be a minor parental strain of bopivirus B1 ovine/TB14/2010-HUN. Evolutionary analysis based on the 2C and 3CD genes revealed that the new bopivirus B1 strain SWUN/B1/2022 presents a unique evolutionary pattern. This study provided evidence to suggest that "Bopivirus B" is circulating with substantial genetic diversity in goats in China at present, and the mixed infection of "Bopivirus B" with other enteric viruses should be considered to be a composite factor in the occurrence of viral diarrhea in goats.
