La Crosse virus Ab [Presence] in Serum by Hemagglutination inhibition
Active
Term Description
California encephalitis virus has more than 20 strains, most of which include "strain" in the name. In some cases such as La Crosse virus, however, the name does not signal that it is a strain of California encephalitis.
Part Descriptions
LP14236-1 La Crosse virus
La Crosse virus is a mosquito-borne virus causing encephalitis in the United States at higher rates than bacterial meningitis. The disease is recurrent during warm seasons in the Mid-West and mid-Atlantic whose hardwood trees provide breeding sites for the mosquito species Aedes triseriatus. Testing for La Crosse virus should be perfomed on young patients with symptoms of encephalitis in these two parts of the United States during the summer and fall. PMID: 9494831

LP14236-1 La Crosse virus
La Crosse encephalitis is an encephalitis caused by an arbovirus (the La Crosse virus) which has a mosquito vector (Ochlerotatus triseriatus synonym Aedes triseriatus).
Historically, most cases of LAC encephalitis occur in the upper Midwestern states (Minnesota, Wisconsin, Iowa, Illinois, Indiana, and Ohio). Recently, more cases are being reported from states in the mid-Atlantic (West Virginia, Virginia and North Carolina) and southeastern (Alabama and Mississippi) regions of the country.

LP6304-2 HAI
The hemagglutination-inhibition assay (HAI) can be used to identify subtypes of hemagglutinin producing viruses, such as Influenza. HAI can also be used to identify the subtype-specificity of antibodies against the virus. Normally, Influenza's hemagglutinin glycoprotein binds to receptors on the surface of red blood cells, causing them to agglutinate. If antibodies specific to the virus are present in the patient sample, they will bind to the virus, which prevents the virus from binding to the red blood cells and therefore prevents agglutination. To determine which subtype of virus is present, a viral isolate is tested against a series of antibodies with known subtype specificities. Whichever antibody inhibits red cell agglutination identifies the viral subtype. Similarly, antibody specificity is identified by testing the patient sample against known virus subtypes.
