To examine the prevalence of SARS-CoV-2 in rodent populations, we analyzed 128 serum samples and 129 oral swabs collected from 128 brown rats (Rattus norvegicus) and two black rats (Rattus rattus) captured for pest control purposes in Tokyo, Japan, between May and December 2023. A virus-neutralizing test using the omicron variant revealed no evidence of SARS-CoV-2 infection. Real-time reverse transcription- PCR of oral swabs did not detect any SARS-CoV-2 RNA-positive rats.

This study aimed to investigate the genetic characteristics and molecular epidemiology of CVA6 in Linyi between the years 2022 and 2023. In total, 965 patients with HFMD were enrolled in this study, and analyses based on VP1 nucleotide sequences were performed to determine the evolutionary trajectory of CVA6. In 2022, 281/386 (72.8%) patients were positive for enteroviruses (EVs) and 217/281 (77.2%) were CVA6 positive. In 2023, 398/579 (68.7%) samples were positive for EVs and 243/398 (61.1%) were CVA6 positive. Six sequences were selected each year for homology analysis. The results showed that the 12 strains isolated from Linyi were distant from the prototype strain (AY421764) and the first CVA6 strain reported in China (JQ364886).

Skin biopsies were obtained from four selected lesions, including typical and atypical lesions. Histopathological examinations of atypical solitary ulceration revealed infiltrating inflammatory cells predominantly composed of plasma cells and lymphocytes, forming a \"sleeve\" around the superficial vessels of the dermis. These features might be misinterpreted as indicative of cutaneous syphilis infection. Meanwhile, typical pustular lesions displayed central necrotic epidermis accompanied by perivascular inflammatory infiltrate dominated by neutrophils, as well as ballooning and reticular degeneration of keratinocytes. Additionally, multinucleated keratinocytes and eosinophilic cytoplasmic inclusions known as Guarnieri's bodies were also observed. Importantly, this study represented the pioneering report on immunohistochemical detection of MPXV A29 and A35 proteins in skin lesions, distinguishing it from previous studies that focused on detecting vaccinia virus protein. The anti-MPXV A29 antibody exhibited robust cytoplasmic staining specifically within affected keratinocytes in both adjacent epidermis and hair follicles, thereby it could contribute to the diagnosis of MPX, especially for cases with atypical skin lesions.","PeriodicalId":14608,"journal":{"name":"Japanese journal of infectious diseases","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":1.3,"publicationDate":"2024-10-31","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142545485","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
