Human astrovirus types 1, 4 and 5 circulating among children with acute gastroenteritis in a rural Brazilian state, 2010-2016

Abstract This study combined conventional epidemiology of human astroviruses. From 2010 to 2016, 232 stool samples from children under 5 years of age were screened using NGS and conventional RT-PCR followed by genetic analysis in order to investigate the genotypic diversity of classical human astrovirus (HAstV) circulating in Tocantins State, Brazil. HAstV was detected in 16 cases (6.9%). Seven specimens (43.7%; 7/16) were positive according RT-PCR and next-generation sequencing (NGS) to investigate the molecular to both NGS and RT-PCR. NGS and RT-PCR individually revealed six (37.5%; 6/16) and three (18.8%; 3/16) additional positive samples, respectively. Sequencing of the HAstV-positive samples revealed HAstV-1a (9/16), HAstV-4c (3/16), and HAstV-5c (4/16) lineages..
