چکیده
|
Rabies in bats is considered enzootic throughout the new world,but few comparative data are available for most countries in the region. as part of a larger pathogen detection program,enhanced bat rabies surveillance was conducted in guatemala,between 2009 and 2011. a total of 672 bats of 31 species were sampled and tested for rabies. the prevalence of rabies virus (rabv) detection among all collected bats was low (0.3%). viral antigens were detected and infectious virus was isolated from the brains of two common vampire bats (desmodus rotundus). rabv was also isolated from oral swabs,lungs and kidneys of both bats,whereas viral rna was detected in all of the tissues examined by hemi-nested rt-pcr except for the liver of one bat. sequencing of the nucleoprotein gene showed that both viruses were 100% identical,whereas sequencing of the glycoprotein gene revealed one non-synonymous substitution (302t,s). the two vampire bat rabv isolates in this study were phylogenetically related to viruses associated with vampire bats in the eastern states of mexico and el salvador. additionally,7% of sera collected from 398 bats demonstrated rabv neutralizing antibody. the proportion of seropositive bats varied significantly across trophic guilds,suggestive of complex intraspecific compartmentalization of rabv perpetuation.
