Opinion and report of the French Agency for Food, Environmental and Occupational Health & Safety (ANSES) on the assessment of the impact of fox population dynamics on public health

Food Risk Assess Europe, Volume 3, Issue 2, April 2025.
ABSTRACT The Red Fox (Vulpes vulpes) can be hunted as a game species. It may also be listed as a “species likely to cause damage” (ESOD – the acronym in French), for public health reasons among others. Conversely, benefits linked to the presence of foxes are also put forward, such as the predation of rodents carrying zoonotic agents.

Lymphocytic Choriomeningitis in Michigan

Emerging Infectious Diseases, 2006
We summarize the first reported case of acquired lymphocytic choriomeningitis virus (LCMV) infection in Michigan to be investigated by public health authorities and provide evidence of the focal nature of LCMV infection in domestic rodents.

Evaluation of a Luminex‐Based Multiplex Immunoassay of Hemorrhagic Fever Viruses in Senegal

Transboundary and Emerging Diseases, Volume 2025, Issue 1, 2025.
Given the growing threat posed by viral hemorrhagic fevers, the development of surveillance tools is crucial to provide accurate and rapid solutions. Public health response involves risk assessment as well as effective and sustainable surveillance to ensure downstream communication and preparedness. A serological approach that offers high precision and

Challenges Associated With Re‐Emergence of Lassa Fever in Nigeria: An Exploratory Study of Epidemiology, Phylogenomics, and Recommendations Toward Its Eradication

Health Science Reports, Volume 7, Issue 12, December 2024.
ABSTRACT Background Lassa fever (LF) is a viral hemorrhagic illness endemic in Nigeria and other West African countries. In recent years, the number of reported cases of LF in Nigeria has increased. In this study, we discussed the epidemiology of LF, the phylogenomics of the LF virus, issues associated with the increased cases of LF, and ...

Investigation of Viral, Bacterial and Parasitic Zoonotic Diseases in Rodents in Turkey

Veterinary Medicine and Science, Volume 10, Issue 6, November 2024.
Rodents are reservoir hosts for zoonotic pathogens. In this study, the presence of viral lymphocytic choriomeningitis and hantavirus infections, bacterial tularaemia and leptospirosis, and parasitic leishmaniasis and toxoplasmosis were investigated in 498 rodents collected in Erzurum province, Turkey.

Identification and Genetic Analysis of Species D Rotaviruses in Pangolin Samples

Transboundary and Emerging Diseases, Volume 2024, Issue 1, 2024.
Pangolins have been found to carry severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS‐CoV‐2)‐related coronaviruses. In light of this discovery, interest has been piqued in viromes of these heavily trafficked wild animals. In this study, we performed viral metagenomic sequencing to explore viromes of both confiscated dead pangolins and captive ...

Proteomics Computational Analyses Suggest that the Antennavirus Glycoprotein Complex Includes a Class I Viral Fusion Protein (α-Penetrene) with an Internal Zinc-Binding Domain and a Stable Signal Peptide

Viruses, 2019
A metatranscriptomic study of RNA viruses in cold-blooded vertebrates identified two related viruses from frogfish (Antennarius striatus) that represent a new genus Antennavirus in the family Arenaviridae (Order: Bunyavirales).

Exploring the Immunopathogenesis of Viral Hemorrhagic Fever in Mice with a Humanized Immune System

Frontiers in Immunology, 2017
Viral hemorrhagic fever (VHF) as a disease entity was first codified in the 1930s by soviet scientists investigating patients suffering from hantavirus infection. The group of hemorrhagic fever viruses (HFVs) has since expanded to include members from at
