Oral Administration of Astrovirus Capsid Protein Is Sufficient To Induce Acute Diarrhea In Vivo

MBio, 7(6).

By: V. Meliopoulos*, S. Marvin*, P. Freiden*, L. Moser*, P. Nighot n, R. Ali n, A. Blikslager n, M. Reddivari* ...

MeSH headings : Administration, Oral; Avastrovirus / pathogenicity; Capsid Proteins / administration & dosage; Capsid Proteins / toxicity; Cell Membrane / chemistry; Cytoplasm / chemistry; Diarrhea / chemically induced; Diarrhea / pathology; Intestinal Mucosa / pathology; Sodium-Hydrogen Exchangers / analysis; Turkey
TL;DR: Oral administration of purified recombinant turkey astrovirus 2 (TAstV-2) structural (capsid) protein induces acute diarrhea, increases barrier permeability, and causes relocalization of NHE3 in the small intestine, suggesting that rotavirus may not be alone in possessing enterotoxigenic activity.

Misoprostol: Is it safety or a lack of understanding that prevents its more frequent usage?
