The Role of Host Glycobiology and Gut Microbiota in Rotavirus and Norovirus Infection, an Update
2021-12-03
Abstract excerpt
Rotavirus (RV) and norovirus (NoV) are the leading cause of acute gastroenteritis (AGE) worldwide. Several studies have demonstrated that histo-blood group antigens (HBGAs) have a role in NoV and RV infections, since their presence on the gut epithelial surfaces is essential for the susceptibility to many NoV and RV genotypes. Polymorphisms in genes that code for enzymes required for HBGAs synthesis lead to secret...
