Abstract

The tick-borne encephalitis (TBE) virus has been confirmed by molecular analysis in the Caucasus region for the first time. The virus obtained from a tick Ixodes ricinus ex Caspian green lizard belongs to the Zausaev strain of the Siberian subtype (not to a strain of the European subtype highly distributed in the territories adjacent to the Caucasus). This unusual record indicates the need to study the role of lizards in the circulation of natural focal infections.

俄罗斯高加索地区蜱传脑炎:在欧洲和小亚细亚边境首次发现病毒。

在高加索地区首次通过分子分析证实了蜱传脑炎(TBE)病毒。从里海绿壁虎身上获得的病毒属于西伯利亚亚型的Zausaev毒株(不属于高度分布于毗邻高加索地区的欧洲亚型毒株)。这一不寻常的记录表明有必要研究蜥蜴在自然局部感染循环中的作用。

期刊介绍： Vector-Borne and Zoonotic Diseases is an authoritative, peer-reviewed journal providing basic and applied research on diseases transmitted to humans by invertebrate vectors or non-human vertebrates. The Journal examines geographic, seasonal, and other risk factors that influence the transmission, diagnosis, management, and prevention of this group of infectious diseases, and identifies global trends that have the potential to result in major epidemics. Vector-Borne and Zoonotic Diseases coverage includes: -Ecology -Entomology -Epidemiology -Infectious diseases -Microbiology -Parasitology -Pathology -Public health -Tropical medicine -Wildlife biology -Bacterial, rickettsial, viral, and parasitic zoonoses
