Arbovirus:
ARthropod BOrne Viruses
Arboviruses are viruses which are maintained in
nature principally, or to an important extent, through
biological
transmission
between
susceptible
vertebrate hosts by hematophagous arthropods:
they multiply and produce viremia in vertebrates,
multiply in the tissues of arthropods, and are passed
to new vertebrates by the bites of arthropods after a
period of extrinsic incubation.
W.H.O. 1967
Arbovirus:
ARthropod BOrne Viruses
Virus trasmessi da artropodi
Zanzare
Zecche
Altri
Sono alcune centinaia (>500
nel catalogo del 1985)
Causano gravi problemi
sanitari a livello globale
Causano milioni di casi ogni
anno
Migliaia di morti ogni anno
Forte impatto sull’economia
Seguono spesso
cambiamenti climatici
Uragani
Riscaldamento globale
“Emergenza” degli Arbovirus
L'emergenza può verificarsi in seguito a:
variazioni ambientali (cambiamenti climatici /ecologici
che favoriscono lo sviluppo dei vettori e degli animali
serbatoi aumentando la possibilità di un loro contatto
con l'uomo)
insorgenza di varianti virali favorite dalla natura stessa
del loro genoma ad RNA segmentato (mutazioni del
genoma virale, riassortimento, selezione naturale,
evoluzione).
variazioni dovute a comportamento umano (scambi
commerciali, comportamenti sociali).
Ri-emergenza di epidemie causate
da arbovirus, 1990-2006

West Nile virus
Virus West Nile:
Isolato per prima volta nel 1937 in Uganda dal
sangue di una donna con sindrome febbrile
Famiglia: Flaviviridae
Genere: Flavivirus
Complesso antigenico: Encefalite giapponese
Il complesso antigenico include i virus: Alfuy(ALF),
Encefalite Giapponese(JE), Cacipacore(CPC), Koutango
(KOU), Kunjin, Encefalite di Murray Valley(MVE),
Encefalite di St. Louis(SLE), Yaounde (YAO), Usutu
(USU), e West Nile(WN).
Tutti i virus sono trasmessi da zanzare, molti di
loro causano malattia febbrile nell’uomo, a volte
fatale.
Virus West Nile:epidemie
Dagli anni ‘60 casi sporadici e gravi epidemie sia
nell’uomo sia nel cavallo, in Africa, Europa e
Medio Oriente.
Dalla metà degli anni ’90 incremento del numero
di epidemie e aumento della gravità della
sintomatologia
Nel 1999 focolai a New York, e dal 2003:
ufficialmente endemica negli USA, ha raggiunto
il Canada e il Sud America.

West Nile virus in Italia
Between August and October 1998 an
outbreak of equine encephalomyelitis
occurred in Tuscany Region. 14 cases
were registered, with 6 deaths.
A strain of West Nile virus was isolated
from the brain of a horse.

Diagnostic problems
All flaviviruses are serologically correlated.
After infection antibodies are produced that
cross-react in ELISA tests with other flaviruses
Vaccination against YF and JE, or Dengue
infection, produce antibodies cross-reacting,
non-neutralising that give positive ELISA test
results
In these cases specific humoral immunity
response against flaviviruses virus can be
determined only with neutralization test
