Resumo: | Saint Louis encephalitis virus (SLEV) is a mosquito-borne flavivirus that occurs throughout the Americas, and is considered a public health threat. In Brazil, SLEV has been detected from human cases associated with dengue-like disease, but no neurological symptoms were reported. Furthermore, the epidemiology of SLEV in human populations is still poorly explored in the country. We reported serological and molecular detection of SLEV in a healthy population of equids and humans from rural areas in Southeast Brazil. A plaque reduction neutralization test was applied, and neutralizing antibodies were detected in 11 individuals (4.6%) and 60 horses (21.5%). A qPCR targeting the 5′UTR region and reverse transcription-PCR (RT-PCR) targeting the non-structural protein (NS5) gene were performed and three individuals tested positive in both assays. Subsequent phylogenetic analysis confirmed SLEV circulation and its findings suggest the occurrence of an asymptomatic or subclinical presence in human and animal cases, correlating with the risks for outbreaks and consequently burden of SLEV infections to public health. Preventive strategies should include improved surveillance in regions with a high probability of SLEV occurrence, improvement in diagnostic methods, and evaluation of exposure/risk factors that can favor SLEV emergence. |

No Brasil, o SLEV foi detectado em casos humanos associados a doenças semelhantes à dengue, mas nenhum sintoma neurológico foi relatado. Além disso, a epidemiologia do SLEV em populações humanas ainda é pouco explorada no país. Relatamos a detecção sorológica e molecular do SLEV em uma população saudável de equídeos e humanos de áreas rurais do Sudeste do Brasil. Foi aplicado teste de neutralização por redução de placa e foram detectados anticorpos neutralizantes em 11 indivíduos (4,6%) e 60 cavalos (21,5%). Um qPCR direcionado à região 5′UTR e PCR de transcrição reversa (RT-PCR) direcionado ao gene da proteína não estrutural (NS5) foram realizados e três indivíduos testaram positivo em ambos os ensaios. A análise filogenética subsequente confirmou a circulação do SLEV e os seus resultados sugerem a ocorrência de uma presença assintomática ou subclínica em casos humanos e animais, correlacionando-se com os riscos de surtos e consequentemente com a carga das infecções por SLEV para a saúde pública. As estratégias preventivas devem incluir a melhoria da vigilância em regiões com elevada probabilidade de ocorrência do SLEV, a melhoria dos métodos de diagnóstico e a avaliação dos factores de exposição/risco que podem favorecer o aparecimento do SLEV.CNPq - Conselho Nacional de Desenvolvimento Científico e TecnológicoFAPEMIG - Fundação de Amparo à Pesquisa do Estado de Minas GeraisCAPES - Coordenação de Aperfeiçoamento de Pessoal de Nível SuperiorOutra AgênciaengUniversidade Federal de Minas GeraisUFMGBrasilICB - DEPARTAMENTO DE MICROBIOLOGIAVET - DEPARTAMENTO DE MEDICINA VETERINÁRIA PREVENTIVAVirusesVírus da encefalite de St. LouisEstudos soroepidemiológicosEpidemiologiaDoenças assintomáticasSaúde públicaSaint Louis encephalitis virusSeroprevalenceEpidemiologyAsymptomatic casesPublic health burdenSilent circulation of the Saint Louis Encephalitis virus among humans and equids, southeast BrazilCirculação silenciosa do vírus da Encefalite de Saint Louis entre humanos e equídeos, sudeste do Brasilinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersioninfo:eu-repo/semantics/articlehttps://www.mdpi.com/1999-4915/11/11/1029Galileu Barbosa CostaDanilo Bretas de OliveiraBetania Paiva DrumondErna Geessien KroonGiliane de Souza TrindadePaula Eillany Silva MarinhoAna Paula Pessoa VilelaAna Teresa Saraiva SilvaAna Paula Correia CrispimIara Apolinário BorgesAna Gabriella Stoffella DutraZélia Inês Portela LobatoJenner Karlison Pimenta dos Reisapplication/pdfinfo:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessreponame:Repositório Institucional da UFMGinstname:Universidade Federal de Minas Gerais (UFMG)instacron:UFMGLICENSELicense.txtLicense.txttext/plain;
