Phylogeography of dengue virus serotype 4, Brazil, 2010-2011.

ABSTRACT: Dengue virus serotype 4 (DENV-4) reemerged in Roraima State, Brazil, 28 years after it was last detected in the country in 1982. To study the origin and evolution of this reemergence, full-length sequences were obtained for 16 DENV-4 isolates from northern (Roraima, Amazonas, Pará States) and northeastern (Bahia State) Brazil during the 2010 and 2011 dengue virus seasons and for an isolate from the 1982 epidemic in Roraima. Spatiotemporal dynamics of DENV-4 introductions in Brazil were applied to envelope genes and full genomes by using Bayesian phylogeographic analyses. An introduction of genotype I into Brazil from Southeast Asia was confirmed, and full genome phylogeographic analyses revealed multiple introductions of DENV-4 genotype II in Brazil, providing evidence for >3 introductions of this genotype within the last decade: 2 from Venezuela to Roraima and 1 from Colombia to Amazonas. The phylogeographic analysis of full genome data has demonstrated the origins of DENV-4 throughout Brazil.

Dengue epidemic typology and risk factors for extensive epidemic in Amazonas state, Brazil, 2010-2011.

Project description:BACKGROUND:Dengue is the most prevalent arboviral disease affecting humans. The frequency and magnitude of dengue epidemic have significantly increased over recent decades. This study aimed to identify dengue epidemic types and risk factors for the extensive epidemics that occurred in 2010-2011, across the municipalities of Amazonas state, Brazil. METHODS:Using an ecological approach, secondary data were obtained from the dengue fever surveillance system. Epidemic waves were classified according to three indices: duration, intensity, and coverage. A hierarchical model of multiple logistic regression was used for the identification of risk factors, with the occurrence of extensive dengue epidemic. RESULTS:During the study period, dengue virus affected 49 of the 62 Amazonas municipalities. In 22 of these, the epidemics were of high intensity, wide range, and long time span, and therefore categorized as "extensive epidemics". The final multivariable model revealed a significant association between extensive dengue epidemics occurrence and the average number of days with precipitation (adjusted OR?=?1.40, 95% CI: 1.01-1.94) and the number of years with infestation (adjusted OR?=?1.53, 95% CI: 1.18-1.98). CONCLUSIONS:Our results indicate that it is crucial to integrate vector control, case management, epidemiological investigation, and health education, in order to respond to the growing threat of multiple mosquito-borne diseases, such as dengue, Zika and chikungunya, which are highly prevalent in the South America region.

Complete genome of a dengue virus serotype 4 strain from Amazonas, Brazil.

Project description:Dengue virus (DENV) infections represent a significant concern for public health worldwide, being considered as the most prevalent arthropod-borne virus regarding the number of reported cases. In this study, we report the complete genome sequencing of a DENV serotype 4 isolate, genotype II, obtained in the city of Manaus, directly from the serum sample, applying Ion Torrent sequencing technology. The use of a massive sequencing technology allowed the detection of two variable sites, one in the coding region for the viral envelope protein and the other in the nonstructural 1 coding region within viral populations.

Detection of Rocio Virus SPH 34675 during Dengue Epidemics, Brazil, 2011-2013.

Project description:Recent seroprevalence studies in animals detected Rocio virus in regions of Brazil, indicating risk for re-emergence of this pathogen. We identified Rocio virus RNA in samples from 2 human patients for whom dengue fever was clinically suspected but ruled out by laboratory findings. Testing for infrequent flavivirus infections should expedite diagnoses.

Dengue virus type 4 phylogenetics in Brazil 2011: looking beyond the veil.

Project description:Dengue Fever and Dengue Hemorrhagic Fever are diseases affecting approximately 100 million people/year and are a major concern in developing countries. In the present study, the phylogenetic relationship of six strains of the first autochthonous cases of DENV-4 infection occurred in Sao Paulo State, Parana State and Rio Grande do Sul State, Brazil, 2011 were studied. Nucleotide sequences of the envelope gene were determined and compared with sequences representative of the genotypes I, II, III and Sylvatic for DEN4 retrieved from GenBank. We employed a Bayesian phylogenetic approach to reconstruct the phylogenetic relationships of Brazilian DENV-4 and we estimated evolutionary rates and dates of divergence for DENV-4 found in Brazil in 2011. All samples sequenced in this study were located in Genotype II. The studied strains are monophyletic and our data suggest that they have been evolving separately for at least 4 to 6 years. Our data suggest that the virus might have been present in the region for some time, without being noticed by Health Surveillance Services due to a low level of circulation and a higher prevalence of DENV-1 and DENV- 2.

Resurgence of Dengue Virus Serotype 3 in Minas Gerais, Brazil: A Case Report.

Project description:This report provides a detailed overview of the resurgence of DENV-3 in the state of Minas Gerais, Brazil, which is a concerning scenario in the context of dengue, a mosquito-borne viral disease. Historically, Brazil has grappled with dengue epidemics caused primarily by the DENV-1 and DENV-2 serotypes. However, in 2023, a significant shift in this pattern was observed as DENV-3 made a notable resurgence. This resurgence was characterized by the increase in DENV-3 cases within the country and the region of the Americas. Given the absence of sustained DENV-3 circulation in Brazil in previous years, this situation poses a significant risk, making the population highly susceptible to a potential novel epidemic. In November 2023, a 31-year-old male patient in Belo Horizonte exhibited symptoms of acute febrile syndrome. Multiplex RT-qPCR using the Kit Molecular ZC D-Tipagem confirmed DENV-3 infection, suggesting a likely autochthonous case, as the patient reported no travel history. To promptly assess this resurgence, we applied the nanopore sequencing technology. This allowed for the rapid characterization of the initial DENV-3 case isolated in Minas Gerais in 2023, representing a 13-year interval since the serotype's previous documented circulation in that state. This case report underscores the critical importance of proactive monitoring and the swift implementation of targeted control strategies to address the evolving dynamics of dengue, with a specific emphasis on the resurgence of DENV-3 in the state.

Full-length infectious clone of a low passage dengue virus serotype 2 from Brazil.

Project description:Full-length dengue virus (DENV) cDNA clones are an invaluable tool for many studies, including those on the development of attenuated or chimeric vaccines and on host-virus interactions. Furthermore, the importance of low passage DENV infectious clones should be highlighted, as these may harbour critical and unique strain-specific viral components from field-circulating isolates. The successful construction of a functional Brazilian low passage DENV serotype 2 full-length clone through homologous recombination reported here supports the use of a strategy that has been shown to be highly useful by our group for the development of flavivirus infectious clones and replicons.
