description | Rabies is a viral zoonosis distributed worldwide that affects the central nervous system. Epidemiologically, due to the form of transmission rabies has been classified into two categories: urban form, associated with canine and feline, and sylvatic, involving vampire bats. In Colombia, the first rabies virus was isolated in 1968 from the vampire bat (Desmoncus rotundus), and since then the population has been historicall affected by urban and jungle outbreaks. The objective of this study was to analyze 19 partial sequences of nucleocapsid protein N of rabies virus reported in Colombia, and deposited in GenBank between 1994 and 2008, to establish their phylogenetic relationships. The phylogeny showed four monophyletic groups. Epidemiologically, two forms of transmission of the virus (urban and sylvatic cycle) are present, with implications for public health. Therefore, it is necessary to implement prevention and control measures to reduce the impact of the zoonosis on the human population. |

Epidemiologically, due to the form of transmission rabies has been classified into two categories: urban form, associated with canine and feline, and sylvatic, involving vampire bats.

La rabia es una zoonosis viral de distribución mundial que afecta el sistema nervioso central, epidemiológicamente, por su forma de trasmisión se ha clasificado en dos categorías: la forma urbana, asociada a caninos y felinos, y la selvática, a murciélagos hematófagos. En Colombia se aisló en 1968 el primer virus rábico, del murciélago vampiro (Desmodus rotundus), y desde entonces la población se ha visto afectada históricamente por brotes urbanos y selváticos. El objetivo de este trabajo fue analizar 19 secuencias parciales de la proteína N de la nucleocápside del virus de la rabia reportadas en Colombia y depositadas en el GenBank entre 1994 y 2008, para establecer su relación filogenética. El árbol filogenético mostró 4 grupos monofiléticos. Epidemiológicamente se presentan dos formas de trasmisión del virus (ciclo urbano y selvático), con implicaciones en salud pública, por lo que se hace necesario implementar medidas de prevención y control que disminuyan el impacto sobre la población humana.
