Levantamento soroepidemiológico para arbovírus em macaco-prego-galego (Cebus flavius) de vida livre no estado da Paraíba e em macaco-prego (Cebus libidinosus) de cativeiro do nordeste do Brasil

Abstract: Among the primates tested all C. flavius were negative and 46% C. libidinosus presented antibodies to arbovirus. Antibodies were detected for nine arbovirus (9/19). Seventeen heterotypic reactions were observed for at least two Or Flavirus and 15 for Alphavirus, at titers varying between 1:20 to 1:1280. Fifteen samples presented monotypic reaction for ILHV (n=4), MAYV (n=6), SLEV (n=1), ROCV (n=2), OROV (n=1) and MUCV (n=1). These results suggest that there was an intense arbovirus circulation in the studied p… Show more

“…The virus is widely distributed in the Americas from Canada to Argentina, where human outbreaks were recorded in 2005 and 2010 . The natural SLEV cycle is predominantly bird‐mosquito, but viral antibodies have been found in reptiles, marsupials, rodents, armadillos, horses, and primates . The high antibody prevalence to this virus, as well as its ability to infect many vertebrate hosts, explains its finding in humans in the study areas.…”

“…45 The natural SLEV cycle is predominantly bird-mosquito, but viral antibodies have been found in reptiles, marsupials, rodents, armadillos, horses, and primates. 18,37,41,46,47 The high antibody prevalence to this virus, as well as its ability to infect many vertebrate hosts, explains its finding in humans in the study areas. Similarities in symptoms between the non-neurological disease caused by SLEV and dengue fever, coupled with the limited knowledge on its transmission cycle and the lack of knowledge on its prevalence in much of the country, make it difficult to diagnose infections and human cases of the disease.…”
