AI Article Synopsis

  • - An outbreak of acute encephalitis syndrome linked to Chandipura virus (CHPV) was identified in Maharashtra, India, with a focus on the role of sandflies in its transmission.
  • - Researchers isolated CHPV from Sergentomyia spp. by processing 625 sandfly specimens and confirming infection through RT-PCR, revealing differences in genetic sequences compared to previous isolates.
  • - The findings suggest that Sergentomyia spp. may play a significant role in CHPV transmission, highlighting the need for further research to better understand this vector's impact.

Article Abstract

Background & Objectives: An outbreak of acute encephalitis syndrome was reported from Vidarbha region of Maharashtra s0 tate, India, during July 2012. Anti-IgM antibodies against Chandipura virus (CHPV) were detected in clinical samples. Sandfly collections were done to determine their role in CHPV transmission.

Methods: Twenty nine pools of Sergentomyia spp. comprising 625 specimens were processed for virus isolation in Vero E6 cell line. Diagnostic RT-PCR targeting N-gene was carried out with the sample that showed cytopathic effects (CPE). The PCR product was sequenced, analysed and the sequences were deposited in Genbank database.

Results: CPE in Vero E6 cell line infected with three pools was detected at 48 h post infection. However, virus could be isolated only from one pool. RT-PCR studies demonstrated 527 nucleotide product that confirmed the agent as CHPV. Sequence analysis of the new isolate showed difference in 10-12 nucleotides in comparison to earlier isolates.

Interpretation & Conclusions: This is perhaps the first isolation of CHPV from Sergentomyia spp. in India and virus isolation during transmission season suggests their probable role in CHPV transmission. Further studies need to be done to confirm the precise role of Sargentomyia spp. in CHPV transmission.
