人畜共患病毒性疾病
Viral Zoonosis


人畜共患病

– 脊椎动物( vertebrate animals )所患疾病能通过
昆虫媒介直接或间接传递给人类
– 如果有昆虫参与,这个疾病也称为虫媒疾病
( arboviral )

– 如狂犬病、肾综合症出血热、流行性乙型脑炎和埃
博拉出血热

虫媒病毒( Arthropod-borne
viruses , arboviruses )是通过节肢动

物( arthropod vectors )传播的病毒
 The WHO definition is as follows
– Viruses maintained in nature principally,
or to an important extent, through
biological transmission between
susceptible vertebrate hosts by
haematophagus arthropods or through
transovarian and possibly venereal
transmission in arthropods

动物宿主( Reservoirs )

In many cases, the actual reservoir is not known. The
following animals are implicated as reservoirs







– Japanese encephalitis, St Louis encephalitis






– Japanese encephalitis



– Yellow Fever

啮齿类动物



– Russian Spring-Summer encephalitis

传播环节


人 – 节肢动物 – 人
– Dengue




动物 – 节肢动物 – 人

– Japanese Encephalitis



混合方式:两种都有

– some arboviruses such as yellow fever

Man-Arthropod-Man Cycle

Dengue
Reservoir may be in either man or arthropod vector
In the latter transovarial transmission may take place

Animal-Arthropod-Man Cycle


Japanese encephalitis
The reservoir is in an animal, The virus is maintained in nature in a
transmission cycle involving the arthropod vector and animal
Man becomes infected incidentally

登革病毒




Dengue Virus

Dengue is the biggest arbovirus problem in the
world today with over 2 million cases per year
Dengue is found in Southeast Asia, Africa and
the Caribbean and S America

Mature Dengue-2 virus particles replicating in
five day old tissue culture cells








传播环节

Transmitted by Aedes mosquitoes (伊蚊)
which reside in water-filled containers
Human infections arise from a humanmosquitoe-human
reservoir: monkey and human beings
occur in both an urban and jungle cycle




隐性感染率高

临床特点

登革热

– 高热,淋巴结肿大,肌肉酸痛,骨关节痛疼,头痛,斑丘疹



登革出血热、登革休克综合症

– 在再次感染患者中,少数发展成严重的登革出血热
( Dengue haemorrhagic fever )和登革休克综合症
( Dengue shock syndrome ),死亡率达 5-10%
– 发病机机制与机体存在的抗体参与的免疫病理反应有关
– ADE/immune enhancement

A large subcutaneous haemorrhage on the upper arm of a patient with
dengue haemorrhagic fever.

Lab Diagnosis





Culture in C6/36 cells: 1-3days
HI: 1 weeks
CFT:
ELISA: IgM ; IgG
5 days:80%
6-10 days : 99%

预防





No specific antiviral therapy is available
Prevention of dengue in endemic areas
depends on mosquito eradication. The
population should remove all containers
from their premises which may serve as
vessels for egg deposition
A live attenuated vaccine is being tried in
Thailand with encouraging results

流行性乙型脑炎病毒
Epidemic Type B Encephalitis




Virus first discovered and originally restricted to
Japan (1934), also called Japanese B
encephalitits virus
Now large scale epidemics occur in China, India
and other parts of Asia.

病毒性状







Belongs to Flavivirus
Typical arbovirus particle, 20~30nm spherical
+ssRNA genome
Envelop with hemoagglutinin that can agglutinate
RBCs of chicken and pigeon
Only one serotype, can be controlled by vaccine
strategy

Biological properties







Small spherical enveloped virus
SP: C; M; E(HA)
Replicates in susceptible animals, embryo eggs
and cell culture;
Stable antigenicity;
Sensitive to lipid solvent agents, physical and
chemical treatments

Epidemiology





Source of infection: Patients and infected
animals, e.g. young pigs
it is mosquito borne
Young Pigs and birds are its
natural hosts



致病性







Transmitted by culex mosquitoes (库蚊) . Since
Culex has a flight range of 20km, all local control
measures will fail
The virus is maintained in nature in a
transmission cycle involving mosquitoes, birds
and pigs
Viruses are preserved in the body and egg of
mosquitoes, therefore, mosquitoes are the longterm reservoir (蚊是储存宿主)

Aedes mosquito feeding







人被带毒的蚊虫叮咬后,绝大多数表现为隐性
感染或仅轻微症状。只有少数发生脑炎。
病毒侵入人体,经两次病毒血症后,播散到全
身, 10 天左右潜伏期,出现发热、寒战及全身
症状。 0.1% 的患者病毒越过血脑屏障进入脑
组织,造成脑实质炎症和脑膜病变,临床表现
为突然高热、头痛、呕吐、惊厥、昏迷等脑膜
刺激症状和脑炎症状。死亡率高达 10%—30%
部分患者恢复后留下精神障碍、运动障碍等后
遗症

Pathogenicity and Immunity




Virus

reticular endothelial system
Viremia
Liver or Spleen
Viremia
CNS
encephalitis
Immunity: Long

Laboratory Diagnosis




Serology
Virus isolation
RT-PCR

血清学诊断



血凝抑制试验 Hemoagglutinin Inhibition Test

– Screening IgM-HI antibody for early diagnosis, 75%
positive in acute patients
– If the titer of HI test dropped 4 times after treated with
2-mercaptoethanol, always means IgM positive



补体结合试验 Complement fixation test

– Double serum samples, the titer of the second : the
first >4
– The CF antibody of this virus can last only 2 to 4
months, so positive means newly infection

病毒分离 Virus isolation




Viremia lasts a very short period, it is hard to
isolate virus from blood.
Normally, the cerebral spinal fluid and brain
tissue are inoculated into suckling mice brain

预防 Prevention


Control and kill of mosquitoes
– Pesticides, elimination of breeding grounds, insect repellants



Prevent animal infection
– Vaccination of pigs before the epidemic season



Vaccination
– Children under 10-year-old, one month before the epidemic
season
– Inactivated vaccine (灭活疫苗) , double subcutaneous
injections in duration of one week, repeat vaccination one year
later

Tick-borne encephalitis virus




蜱传脑炎病毒
森林脑炎病毒( Forest Encephalitis Virus )
俄罗斯春夏脑炎病毒( Russian SpringSummer Encephalitis Virus )



Morphology
– Typically Flavivirus



Transmitted by tick
– Can be found in Russia, Middle Europe, and
Germany, Epidemic infection also occurs in
northeastern China. Tick is the host and
transmitted vector. Cause encephalitis





Incubation : 10-14 days
Diagnosis = JBV
Prevention
– Prevent tick-biting is the key procedure
– Inactivated virus vaccine is available
