[0001] The invention belongs to the field of biotechnology and relates to a new method for successfully culturing and continuously replicating hepatitis E virus in vitro. Background technique
[0002] Hepatitis E Virus (HEV) is a viral hepatitis pathogen transmitted through the intestinal tract, which can infect humans and various animals across species. HEV is a single-stranded positive-sense RNA virus. Current studies have found that there are mainly 8 genotypes (HEV-1---HEV-8), and the genotype 4 HEV strain (HEV-4) is mainly prevalent in China. It has been confirmed that the transmission route of HEV is mainly the fecal-oral route, and it can also be transmitted by other routes, such as blood transmission, contact transmission, vertical transmission, and organ transplantation.
[0003] HEV infection is generally an acute self-limiting infection, and patients can recover after 4-6 weeks of self-detoxification. However, immunodeficiency patients and the el...
