Abstract

Arboviruses are viruses that are transmitted by arthropods such as mosquitoes, ticks, and flies, and most of them are RNA viruses. Vector-borne transmission occurs when an infected arthropod bites a vertebrate host, allowing the virus to enter the bloodstream and initiate infection. Arboviruses are known to cause significant morbidity and mortality in mammals, and at least a hundred of them have been identified as human pathogens. In this review, we provide an updated overview of four prominent arboviruses that are present in Southeast Asia (SEA): dengue virus (DENV), Japanese encephalitis virus (JEV), Zika virus (ZIKV), and chikungunya virus (CHIKV). The epidemiology and pathogenesis of these viruses and the currently used methods for diagnosis, prevention, and treatment of arbovirus infections are discussed in detail. Finally, we summarise the concerns and future considerations for combating these dangerous pathogens.

虫媒病毒:热带地区的潜在危险
虫媒病毒是通过蚊子、蜱虫、苍蝇等节肢动物传播的病毒,大多数是RNA病毒。当受感染的节肢动物叮咬脊椎动物宿主时,就会发生媒介传播,使病毒进入血液并引发感染。已知虫媒病毒在哺乳动物中引起严重的发病率和死亡率,其中至少有100种已被确定为人类病原体。在这篇综述中,我们提供了东南亚(SEA)存在的四种主要虫媒病毒的最新概述:登革热病毒(DENV),日本脑炎病毒(JEV),寨卡病毒(ZIKV)和基孔肯雅病毒(CHIKV)。详细讨论了这些病毒的流行病学和发病机制以及目前用于虫媒病毒感染的诊断、预防和治疗方法。最后,我们总结了对这些危险病原体的关注和未来的考虑。

期刊介绍: Archives of Virology publishes original contributions from all branches of research on viruses, virus-like agents, and virus infections of humans, animals, plants, insects, and bacteria. Coverage spans a broad spectrum of topics, from descriptions of newly discovered viruses, to studies of virus structure, composition, and genetics, to studies of virus interactions with host cells, organisms and populations. Studies employ molecular biologic, molecular genetics, and current immunologic and epidemiologic approaches. Contents include studies on the molecular pathogenesis, pathophysiology, and genetics of virus infections in individual hosts, and studies on the molecular epidemiology of virus infections in populations. Also included are studies involving applied research such as diagnostic technology development, monoclonal antibody panel development, vaccine development, and antiviral drug development.Archives of Virology wishes to publish obituaries of recently deceased well-known virologists and leading figures in virology.
