Perfil antigênico do vírus da raiva isolado de diferentes espécies de morcegos não hematófagos da Região de Presidente Prudente, Estado de São Paulo

Abstract: Using the monoclonal antibody technique, the Clinical and Molecular Virology Laboratory of the Institute of Biomedical Sciences of the University of São Paulo typed 18 rabies virus samples from non-hematophagous bats of several species from the region of Presidente Prudente, SP, Brazil. Among these samples, 15 (82.3%) were defined as variant 3 (compatible with samples isolated from Desmodus rotundus bats) and three (16.7%) as variant 4 (compatible with samples isolated from Tadarida brasiliensis bats).

“…In other regions of São Paulo state, in different periods, other families stand out with higher positivity [ 11 , 16 , 30 ]. This variation could be explained by the different types of urbanization found in the state, leading to changes in the food supply and shelters for these animals.…”

“…The research conducted in Brazil describing the occurrence of bat rabies rarely presents the taxonomic identification of all the specimens received for diagnosis, being restricted to the species that had a positive diagnosis [ 6 , 11 , 12 , 13 , 14 , 15 , 16 ], most likely due to the difficulty of performing this identification during routine laboratory procedures. Therefore, the conclusions are based on absolute numbers and not on the ratio between the positive results and the diversity of species received for diagnosis in the studied area.…”

“…Contudo, o morcego hematófago D.rotundus é considerado o principal hospedeiro do vírus rábico sendo responsável pela infecção direta de animais domésticos e eventualmente de seres humanos (23) . Além disso, os morcegos hematófagos distribuem-se amplamente do sul do México ao norte da Argentina e têm interferido no ciclo aéreo de transmissão da doença, com inúmeros casos em espécies não hematófagas (24)(25)(26) , além do ciclo urbano, transmitindo a raiva a cães e gatos (27) . Com o rápido crescimento urbano, os morcegos têm colonizado novos nichos ecológicos e deixado seus abrigos noturnos para ocupar ambientes construídos pelo homem.…”
