Adenovirus is a world public health problem that causes symptoms of respiratory, intestine, urethra and bladder, eyes and liver. The aim of this study is to observe the infectivity of adenovirus to cells from different species, which will provide evidence for finding potential adenovirus infecting animals and nature hosts. 10 cells from different species were infected with human adenovirus (HAdV) in group B (HAdV-3, HAdV-7, HAdV-14 and HAdV-55). Results showed that all the cells supported HAdV-55 entry and hexon protein expression. Increased viral DNA levels were observed in HEp-2, Vero, MDCK, PK15, OAR-L1, MDBK, and F81 cells, while not in CHO, NIH3T3, CT26WT and BHK21 cells. Infectious viral particles were produced in HAdV-55 infected HEp-2, Vero, MDCK, MDBK and PK15 cells, and in HAdV-7 infected HEp-2, Vero, MDCK, F81, MDBK, PK15 and OAR-L1 cells. Conclusively, it is possible to find animals that might be infected by human adenovirus through screening of susceptible cells, and the prevalence of human adenovirus in these animals deserves further investigation.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
