The prevalence of TT virus (TTV) infection and its relationship to hepatitis in children 总被引:4,自引:0,他引:4

TT virus (TTV) is a newly discovered virus from a patient with post-transfusion hepatitis. We investigated the frequency
and pathogenesis of TTV infection in children. A semi-nested PCR assay was used to amplify TTV-DNA in serum samples from 254
ambulatory children without liver disease, 20 with hepatitis of unknown etiology, and 18 transfusion recipients or hemophiliacs.
In positive samples, TTV-DNA was quantified by real-time quantitative PCR using a fluorescent probe. We detected TTV-DNA in
20% of children with hepatitis of unknown etiology, which was not statistically different from the 23% prevalence in ambulatory
children. In transfusion recipients or hemophiliacs, the frequency was higher (50%) than that in ambulatory children (P = 0.01). Among ambulatory children, TTV-DNA was frequently detected in children with acute gastroenteritis (36%). TTV-DNA
was detected in 10% of the infants under 6 months old, and 20% of the children from 7 to 12 months old. The prevalence was
constant after the age of 1 year; however, the copy number of TTV-DNA was significantly higher in children under 1 year of
age (mean: 105.4 versus 103.8 copies/ml, P= 0.008). Finally, TTV-DNA was quantified serially in three children with chronic hepatitis who were positive for TTV-DNA.
The presence or amount of TTV-DNA was unrelated to the serum alanine aminotransferase level. These results indicate that TTV
infection is common in children. The larger quantity of TTV-DNA in infants and the high prevalence of TTV in children of all
ages suggest that TTV may be transmitted in early childhood. Its relationship to hepatitis is doubtful in children.

TT virus (TTV) is a widespread infectious agent of humans identified in 1998. In infected individuals, TTV induces persistent viremia but its life cycle and pathogenic potential are still poorly understood. In the present study, the presence of TTV DNA in 32 consecutive paired serum and cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) samples from patients with neurological (mainly multiple sclerosis) disorders was investigated by means of a sensitive quantitative real-time PCR assay. Of the 24 patients who were found to carry TTV DNA in serum, 3 also had detectable TTV DNA in their CSF. Two TTV positive CSF samples had markers indicative of blood contamination or a disrupted blood-brain barrier and contained considerably lower TTV loads as compared with the corresponding serum samples, thus suggesting that the virus they contained was of plasma origin. These findings indicated that in general TTV does not permeate effectively an intact blood-brain barrier. Furthermore, the CNS does not represent a common site of TTV replication and persistence. However, at least one exception was observed: the third TTV positive CSF sample (obtained from a patient with subacute dementia of unknown origin) showed no markers suggestive of disrupted blood-brain barrier or blood contamination and had a TTV DNA concentration similar to that found in the patient's serum. In addition, the TTV isolates detected in the two body fluids were distinct genetically. The detection of TTV DNA in CSF is of considerable interest but the clinical significance remains unknown. 相似文献

Histopathologic impact of TT virus infection on the liver of type C chronic hepatitis and liver cirrhosis in Japan 总被引:3,自引:0,他引:3
Moriyama M Matsumura H Shimizu T Shioda A Kaneko M Miyazawa K Miyata H Tanaka N Uchida T Arakawa Y 《Journal of medical virology》2001,64(1):74-81
The present investigation compared the histological findings in the liver of chronic hepatitis C patients who were or were not co-infected with TT virus (TTV) to determine the histological and clinical characteristics of TTV infection. One hundred eighty patients with chronic hepatitis or liver cirrhosis type C were included in this study. Serum samples were tested for the presence of TTV DNA by a nested polymerase chain reaction. The liver biopsy specimen of each patient was examined, and scores were assigned to indicate the severity of each of the following features: inflammatory cell infiltration in the periportal, parenchymal, and portal areas; fibrous stage; lymphoid reaction in the portal area; portal sclerotic change; perivenular fibrosis; pericellular fibrosis; damage of bile duct; and irregular regeneration of hepatocytes. Sixty-four (34.4%) of the 180 patients were positive for TTV DNA. The histological features of the liver and the blood biochemical parameters of the TTV DNA-positive and TTV DNA-negative patients, did not differ significantly except for the score of irregular regeneration (IR) of hepatocytes. Among those in the F4 stage of fibrosis, the score of IR of the TTV DNA-positive patients was significantly higher than that of the TTV DNA-negative patients. In conclusion, chronic TTV infection does not modify the biochemical features of chronic hepatitis type C patients. TTV may be a risk factor, however, for the development of hepatocellular carcinoma in patients with type C liver disease in the F4 stage. 相似文献

Comparative and mutational analysis of promoter regions of rinderpest virus was conducted. Minigenomic RNAs harboring the genomic and antigenomic promoter of the lapinized virulent strain (Lv) or an attenuated vaccine strain (RBOK) were constructed, and the expression of the reporter gene was examined. The activities of the antigenomic promoters of these strains were similar, whereas the activity of the genomic promoter (GP) of the RBOK strain was significantly higher than that of the Lv strain, regardless of cell type and the source of the N, P and L proteins. Increased replication (and/or encapsidation) activities were observed in the minigenomes that contained RBOK GP. Mutational analysis revealed that the nucleotides specific to the RBOK strain are responsible for the strong GP activity of the strain. It was also demonstrated that other virulent strains of RPV (Kabete O, Saudi/81 and Kuwait 82/1) have weaker GPs than that of the RBOK strain. 相似文献

Recently, hepatitis B virus (HBV) genotypes and mutations have been reported to be related to hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). This cross‐sectional case–control study examined the relationship between HCC and mutations in the enhancer II/core promoter and precore regions of HBV by comparing 135 Korean HCC patients infected with HBV genotype C2 (HBV/C2; HCC group) with 135 age‐, sex‐, and hepatitis B e antigen (HBeAg) status‐matched patients without HCC (non‐ HCC group). Age and sex were also matched between HBeAg‐positive and ‐negative patients. The prevalence of T1653, A1689, V1753, T1762/A1764, T1846, A1850, C1858, and A1896 mutations was evaluated in this population. The prevalence of the T1653 mutation in the box α region, the A1689 mutation in between the box α and β regions, and the T1762/A1764 mutations in the basal core promoter region was significantly higher in the HCC group compared to the non‐HCC group (8.9% vs. 2.2%, P = 0.017; 19.3% vs. 4.4%, P < 0.001; and 60.7% vs. 22.2%; P < 0.001). Among HBeAg‐negative patients, the frequency of the T1653 mutation was higher in the HCC group. Regardless of HBeAg status, the prevalence of the A1689, and T1762/A1764 mutations was higher in the HCC group than in the non‐HCC group. However, no association was observed between mutations in the precore region and HCC. Upon multivariate analysis, the presence of the T1653, A1689, and T1762/A1764 mutations was an independent predictive factor for HCC. The addition of the T1653 or A1689 mutation to T1762/A1764 increased the risk of HCC. In conclusion, the T1653, A1689, and/or T1762/A1764 mutations were associated with the development of HCC in Korean patients infected with HBV/C2. J. Med.

Distribution of TT virus (TTV), TTV-like minivirus,and related viruses in humans and nonhuman primates 总被引:4,自引:0,他引:4
TT virus (TTV) and TTV-like minivirus (TLMV) are small DNA viruses with single-stranded, closed circular, antisense genomes infecting man. Despite their extreme sequence heterogeneity (>50%), a highly conserved region in the untranslated region (UTR) allows both viruses to be amplified by polymerase chain reaction (PCR). TTV/TLMV infection was detected in 88 of 100 human plasma samples; amplified sequences were differentiated into TTV and TLMV by analysis of melting profiles, showing that both viruses were similarly prevalent. PCR with UTR primers also detected frequent infection with TTV/TLMV-related viruses in a wide range of apes (chimpanzees, gorillas, orangutans, gibbons) and African monkey species (mangabeys, drills, mandrills). These findings support the hypothesis for the co-evolution of TTV-like viruses with their hosts over the period of primate speciation, potentially analogous to the evolution of primate herpesviruses. 相似文献

Zika virus (ZIKV) outbreaks have raised alarm because of reports of congenital Zika virus syndrome in infants. The virus is also known to cause the debilitating Guillain–Barré syndrome in adults. As a result, extensive research has been carried out on the virus over the past few years. To study the molecular responses of viral infectivity in mammals, in vitro two‐dimensional and three‐dimensional cellular models have been employed. The in vivo models of mouse, pig, chicken, and nonhuman primates are primarily used to investigate the teratogenicity of the virus, to study effects of the virus on specific tissues, and to study the systemic effects of a proposed antiviral agent. The virus exhibits wide tissue tropism in the mammalian host. The major host tissues of viral persistence and propagation are neural tissue, ocular tissue, testicular tissue and placental tissue. An understanding of the function of viral components, viral replication cycle, and the molecular responses elicited in the host tissues is imperative for designing antiviral treatment strategies and for development of vaccines. This review provides an update on ZIKV research models and mammalian host responses with respect to ZIKV tissue infection. 相似文献

TT virus (TTV) is widely distributed in the general population. The objective of the present study was to investigate the prevalence and distribution of TTV genotypes among blood donor candidates and multiple transfused patients in the Southeast region of the state of São Paulo, Brazil. TTV-DNA detection by amplification of a segment of the ORF-1 region, presented a prevalence of 11.9% in 270 serum samples from blood donors, of 46.2% in 18 samples from patients with coagulopathies, and of 31.8% in 15 samples from patients with hemoglobinopathies. When specific primers for the non-coding (UTR) region of the TTV genome were used the prevalences were 50.5%, 95.0%, and 82.0% for blood donors, patients with coagulopathies and patients with hemoglobinopathies, respectively. Positive samples from 49 individuals were sequenced and partial segments of 230 base pairs referring to the ORF-1 region of the TTV genome were used for the determination of their genotypes with the aid of phylogenetic analysis. The most frequent genotype was 1 (74.0%), followed by genotype 2 (26.0%). These data indicate a high prevalence of this virus in the populations of blood donors and transfused patients, providing further evidence for the role of transfusions as an efficient pathway in the transmission chain. 相似文献

In order to determine whether peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMC) contain proviral DNA or double-stranded replicative forms of TT virus (TTV) and to define which cell subset harbors TTV, we analyzed 126 PBMC DNA samples by PCR, using the NG059/NG061/NG063 and the T801/T935 primer sets. TTV sequences were detected in nearly 20% (25/126) of PBMC DNA samples. Analysis of PBMC subsets revealed that TTV was preferentially distributed in CD19(+) cells. TTV DNA was also detected in CD3(+)/CD19(+) double-depleted cells but was undetectable in CD3(+) cells. After degradation of single-stranded DNA using mung bean nuclease (MBN), TTV could not be detected in previously TTV-positive PBMC DNA samples nor in DNA from CD19(+) cells, CD3(+)-depleted, and CD3(+)/CD19(+) double-depleted cells, indicating the lack of TTV DNA integration and the absence of viral double-stranded replicative intermediates in PBMC or PBMC subset cells. Our data indicate that PBMC and PBMC subsets are not the major sites of TTV replication. 相似文献
