Rat hepatitis E virus (HEV) cross-species infection and transmission in pigs

2023-07-06

Rocahepevirus ratti, an emerging hepatitis E virus (HEV), has recently been found to be infectious to humans. Rats are a primary reservoir of the virus; thus, it is referred to as “rat HEV”. Rats are often found on swine farms in close contact with pigs. Our goal was to determine whether swine may serve as a transmission host for rat HEV by characterizing an infectious cDNA clone of a zoonotic rat HEV, strain LCK-...
