Vírus da raiva
Abstract in Portuguese
A raiva é uma antropozoonose com alta letalidade, acomete todos os animais de sangue quente, essa doença causa enormes prejuízos econômicos ao rebanho pecuário nacional, é impossível estimar os custos reais com controle dessa doença, em decorrência do grande número de subnotificações. O uso de ferramentas moleculares permite identificar as linhagens virais circulantes, facilitando desse modo à compreensão da epidemiologia da raiva. A técnica de RT-PCR para amplificação parcial dos genes N e G, foi aplicada em 60 amostras positivas para o vírus da raiva pelas provas de imunofluorescência direta e prova biológica, procedentes dos Estados do Pará, Tocantins, Rondônia e Acre das espécies bovina, equídea, bubalina e suína. As sequências nucleotídicas obtidas para os genes N (41 amostras) e G (17 amostras) foram analisadas pelo algoritmo Neighbor-Joining e modelo evolutivo Kimura 2-parâmetros. Essa análise permitiu identificar distintas linhagens circulantes nas regiões estudadas, foi evidenciado ainda, um padrão de distribuição geográfico dessas linhagens. Além disso, este estudo possibilitou identificar marcadores moleculares para diferentes regiões geográficas, promovendo um melhor entendimento da epidemiologia molecular da raiva das linhagens circulantes da região em estudo.

Abstract in English
Rabies is an anthropozoonosis with high mortality, affects all warm-blooded animals, this disease causes major economic losses to livestock. It is difficult to estimate the actual costs of disease control, due to sub notification of cases. Molecular techniques allow identification of genetic viral strains circulating, improving rabies epidemiology comprehension. Sixty rabies virus isolates from bovines, equines, swine and buffaloes coming from the states of Pará, Tocantins, Rondônia and Acre were analyzed in the present study. All samples were previously submitted to direct immunofluorescence test and inoculation in mice, afterwards were submitted to RT-PCR for amplification of partial Nucleoprotein and Glycoprotein genes. Nucleotide sequences from nucleoprotein (41 samples) and glycoprotein G (17 samples) genes were analyzed by Neighbor-joining algorithm and Kimura two-parameter model. This analysis allowed to identify different genetic strains circulating and its geographic distribution patterns. Moreover this study revealed molecular markers for different geographic regions, promoting a better understanding of rabies molecular epidemiology of circulating strains of study area.
