Virus Mayaro: un arbovirus reemergente en Venezuela y Latinoamérica

Abstract: El virus Mayaro produce una enfermedad de síntomas inespecíficos y subletales, frecuentemente confundida con dengue, con síntomas de artralgias que pueden generar incapacidad laboral. Los brotes han sido esporádicos y localizados en la región selvática de la Panamazonia, posterior a su primer aislamiento en 1954 (Trinidad y Tobago). La información en la literatura científica es escasa, diversa y dispersa. El virus Mayaro es un alfavirus filogenéticamente relacionado con el complejo del virus Semliki Forest (SF… Show more

“…The vector competence and capacity of this species vary with locality. A. albopictus can serve as a primary or secondary vector of the four dengue virus serotypes (Massad et al 2001;Hernandez et al 2015) and can transmit several other arboviruses including the causative agents of west Nile encephalitis, yellow fever, chikungunya, Ross River and Mayaro (Bueno & Jiménez 2012;Muñoz & Navarro 2012;Rúa-Uribe et al 2012). The species range includes Europe, Africa and the Americas.…”

“…Furthermore, Hg. janthinomys is considered the main selvatic yellow fever vector species (Consoli and de Oliveira 1994), and was involved in several outbreaks of Yellow Fever Virus (Flaviviridae: Flavivirus-YFV) in Central and South America (Chadee et al 1992;Degallier et al 1992;Muñoz-Rodriguez et al 2010;Vasconcelos et al 1997), by Mayaro Virus (Togaviridae: Alphavirus) in Brazil (Holch et al 1981) and Venezuela (Muñoz and Navarro 2012). Psorophora cyanescens, among other species of the same genus, has been indicated as a potential vector of Venezuelan Encephalitis Virus (Mesa et al 2005).…”

“…Se caracteriza por una enfermedad febril, benigna, autolimitada y endémica conocida como fiebre Mayaro, la cual tiene signos y síntomas similares al Chikungunya (CHIKV), fiebre amarilla (YFV) y dengue (DENV), por esta razón es incluida como enfermedad de notificación obligatoria (2,3).…”
