Abstract

RODRIGUEZ, María Pilar; BERLANGA, Jorge  and  HAYES, Orlando. Etiología nutro-viral de la neuropatía epidémica. Rev Cubana Med Trop [online]. 1998, vol.50, suppl.1, pp.235-240. ISSN 0375-0760.

Viral sequences of the cerebrospinal fluid were amplified by using olygonucleotides that are homologous to region 5´of the Enteroviruses. The results showed a great variability in the amplified sequences, suggesting the presence of enteroviral quasi-species with altered biological properties in the stressed individuals that may play an important role in the neurological damage.

Keywords : NEURITIS [epidemiology]; NEURITIS [etiology]; DISEASE OUTBREAKS; CUBA.
