Objective: To observe the serum immune responses and protection in mice model of the recombinant adenovirus vector mediated human rotavirus VP6 gene expression through coden optimization (rvAdVP6(o)) in comparison with the wild type (rvAdVP6).
Methods: 6-8 week female BALB/c mice were randomly grouped and immunized three times intranasally with 10(8) TCID50 rvAdVP6(o) and rvAdVP6, respectively, then detect the serum IgG level against rotavirus induced by rvAdVP6(o) and rvAdVP6. The amount of sheding viral antigens in feces was detectd after mice rotavirus was taked orally.
Results: The serum IgG level against rotavirus induced by rvAdVP6(o) was higher than that of rvAdVP6 after three times of immunization. The immunized mice shed lower amount of viral antigens in feces as compared with the rvAdVP6.
Conclusion: The recombinant adenovirus which encode optimized human rotavirus VP6 proteins (rvAdVP6(o)) could induce stronger serum immune and protective responses against the challenge of the rotavirus than the wild type (rvAdVP6) at the same immunizing dosage.

Rotavirus A (RVA) is the primary enteric pathogen of humans and many other species. However, RVA interspecies transmission remains poorly understood. In this study, we conducted a comprehensive screening and genotyping analysis of RVA in 1706 wild animal samples collected from various regions within Yunnan Province, China.

In 2020, severe diarrhea occurred in four-month-old fattening pigs from nine farms in Shandong Province, China. Fecal samples were collected from diseased pigs and tested by PCR for the presence of mammalian orthoreovirus (MRV), porcine epidemic diarrhea virus (PEDV), porcine deltacoronavirus (PDCoV), porcine rotavirus A (PoRVA), transmissible gastroenteritis virus (TGEV), porcine kobuvirus (PKV), and pseudorabies virus (PRV). The viral RNA of MRV and PEDV was detected in the fecal samples.

Background: Rotavirus (RV), norovirus (NoV), human enteric adenovirus (HAdV), human astrovirus (HAstV), and sapovirus (SaV) are important viral causes of acute gastroenteritis (AGE) in children. However, limited information is available regarding AGE in Yunnan, Southwest China.
Methods: To investigate the prevalence of group A rotavirus (RVA), norovirus genogroups I (GI) and II (GII), and HAdV, HAstV, and SaV in children aged <5 years hospitalized with AGE between 2020 and 2022.

Dimeric IgA (dIgA) is the dominant antibody in many mucosal tissues. It is actively transported onto mucosal surfaces as secretory IgA (sIgA) which plays an integral role in protection against enteric pathogens, particularly in young children. Therapeutic strategies that deliver engineered, potently neutralizing antibodies directly into the infant intestine through breast milk could provide enhanced antimicrobial protection for neonates.

Broadly neutralizing antibodies (bNAbs) could offer escape-tolerant and lasting protection against viral infections and therefore guide development of broad-spectrum vaccines. The increasing challenge posed by viral evolution and immune evasion intensifies the importance of the discovery of bNAbs and their underlying neutralization mechanism. Here, focusing on the pivotal viral protein VP4 of rotavirus (RV), we identify a potent bNAb, 7H13, exhibiting broad-spectrum neutralization across diverse RV genotypes and demonstrating strong prevention of virus infection in female mice.
