Abstract
With poliovirus eradication within reach, the WHO has included in its recommendations a cell-culture independent algorithm for enterovirus surveillance. This study was designed to compare both the cell culture dependent and independent algorithms and assess how either might impact our perception of the diversity of enterovirus types present in a sample. Sixteen paired samples (16 isolates from RD cell culture and their corresponding stool suspension. i.e. 32 samples) from AFP cases in Nigeria were analyzed in this study. One of these 16 sample pairs (the control) was previously identified and confirmed as poliovirus 2 (PV-2). All the samples were subjected to RNA extraction, cDNA synthesis, RT-snPCR (the WHO recommended cell-culture independent algorithm) and its modifications for co-infection detection and resolution. Amplicons were sequenced and strains identified using the enterovirus genotyping tool and phylogenetic analysis. The enterovirus diversity was shown to be the same between RD cell culture isolates and fecal suspension for the control and five (7, 10, 11, 12 & 14) of the samples analyzed. It was however, different for the remaining 10 (62.5%) samples analyzed. Fourteen different enterovirus types were identified in this study. To be precise, 9 (CV-B4, E6, E7, E13, E14, E19, E29, EV-B75 and EV-B77) and 5 (CV-A1, CV-A11, CV-A13, EV-C99 and PV2) EV-B and EV-C types, respectively where detected in this study. It is crucial to mention that E19 and EV-B75were only recovered from RD cell culture isolates while E14, EV-B77, CV-A11 and CV-A13 were only recovered from fecal suspension. The results of this study show that both the cell culture dependent and independent protocols recommended by the WHO for enterovirus detection unavoidably bias our perception of the diversity of enterovirus types present in a sample. Hence, rather than jettison one for the other, effort should be directed at harmonizing both for increased sensitivity.
期刊介绍:
Accounts of Chemical Research presents short, concise and critical articles offering easy-to-read overviews of basic research and applications in all areas of chemistry and biochemistry. These short reviews focus on research from the author’s own laboratory and are designed to teach the reader about a research project. In addition, Accounts of Chemical Research publishes commentaries that give an informed opinion on a current research problem. Special Issues online are devoted to a single topic of unusual activity and significance.
Accounts of Chemical Research replaces the traditional article abstract with an article "Conspectus." These entries synopsize the research affording the reader a closer look at the content and significance of an article. Through this provision of a more detailed description of the article contents, the Conspectus enhances the article's discoverability by search engines and the exposure for the research.
