Leishmania parazitleri disinda kum sinekleri ayrica dunyanin bircok ulkesinde kum sinegi atesi (sandfly fever), uc gun atesi (three day fever) veya papatasi atesi (papataci fever) olarak bilinen viral bir enfeksiyona neden olan ve
phlebovirus adi verilen bir grupta yer alan viruslerin (Sicilian, Naples, Toscana ve 60'dan fazla diger virusun) ve Guney Amerika'da bartonellosis hastaligina neden olan Bartonella bacilliformis bakterisinin vektorudur.
In a sensitivity test involving all chikungunya serotypes and various alphaviruses, flaviviruses, and one
phlebovirus, the RT-RPA assay identified all virus genotypes, with the only cross-reaction occurring with O'nyong'nyong virus.
America, but related to one found in China called SFTSV for Severe Fever with Thrombocytopenia Syndrome, a
Phlebovirus belonging to the Bunyaviridae family.
The agent of sandfly fever 'Sandfly fever virus (SFV)' is classified in the
phlebovirus species which is an enveloped RNA virus belonging to the bunyavirus group from the arbovirus family.
Out of over 800 sand fly species that have been described to date, approximately 10% are proven or suspected vectors of bacteria (Bartonella bacilliformis), viruses (
Phlebovirus, Vesiculvirus) as well as Leishmania spp.
RVF is caused by the mosquito-borne
phlebovirus, also belonging to the family Bunyaviridae.
Intensive study revealed that the agent involved was a
phlebovirus of the Bunyaviridae family similar to one recently identified in China called severe fever with thrombocytopenia syndrome virus, or SFTSV.
Sandflies are also vectors of many viruses belonging to three different genera: (i) the
Phlebovirus (family Bunyaviridae) including sandfly fever Sicilian virus (SFSV) (1), sandfly fever Naples virus (SFNV) (1), and Toscana virus (TOSV) (1); (ii) the Vesiculovirus (11-12); and (iii) the Orbivirus (13).
TLR3 deletion limits mortality and disease severity due to
Phlebovirus infection.
