戊型肝炎病毒跨种间传播研究进展

Research advances in the interspecies transmission of hepatitis E virus

戊型肝炎病毒(HEV)是病毒性肝炎的病原体,可经动物跨种间传播,其感染导致的戊型肝炎发病率居世界急性病毒性肝炎的首位,现已成为危害人类健康的主要公共健康问题。近年来,越来越多的物种被鉴定成为HEV新的天然宿主,HEV跨种间传播途径越来越多,严重阻碍了对该病毒的防控。因此,本文旨在总结、探讨HEV跨物种间传播的进展,为防控HEV的传播提供参考。

Hepatitis E virus(HEV)is a pathogen for viral hepatitis and can be transmitted across species via animals.The incidence rate of hepatitis E caused by HEV infection ranks first among acute viral hepatitis worldwide,and now it has become a major public health issue that threatens human health.In recent years,more and more species have been identified as the natural hosts of HEV,and there are more routes for the interspecies transmission of HEV,which greatly inhibits the prevention and control of this virus.Therefore,this article reviews and discusses the advances in the interspecies transmission of HEV,so as to provide a reference for the prevention and control of HEV.
