Research Abstract |
Saffold virus (SAFV) has been isolated and/or detected from human cases of diarrhea and upper respiratory tract inflammation in worldwide since the first report in 2007 and were considered epidemiologically that most people generally infected in early childhood. However, SAFV has been detected in the some cases of non-polio acute flaccid paralysis and a few cases of neuronal disorders. Then SAFV possibly be neurovirulent to human. To understand the pathogenesis of SAFV, first of all, we established a detection system of virus antigen and virus genome in pathological diagnosis. Next, we evaluated the susceptibility of experimental animals to SAFV using two clinical isolates of SAFV. Then we attempted to generate an animal model of cerebellar hypoplasia after SAFV infection using neonatal mice.
