Mammalian Reservoirs of Arenaviruses
2002Arenaviruses are negative-stranded RNA viruses that have been isolated from several species of mammals in various parts of the world. With two exceptions, these viruses have all been isolated from rodents of the family Muridae — sensu Musser and Carleton (1993).

Abstract The arenaviruses, which take their name from the sand-sprinkled appearance under the electron microscope, are single-stranded RNA viruses which can cause severe haemorrhagic disease (e.g. Lassa fever, Argentinian, Bolivian and Venezuelan haemorrhagic fevers).

Reverse Genetics of Arenaviruses
2002Arenaviruses merit significant attention both as experimental models to study acute and persistent infections and as clinically important human pathogens, including hemorrhagic fever agents such as Lassa virus.

This chapter focuses on the viral hemorrhagic fever (VHF) viruses from two taxa, the families Arenaviridae and Filoviridae. The family Arenaviridae comprises 29 named viruses, which have unique morphologic and physiochemical characteristics. Antigenic relationships are established mainly on the basis of broadly reactive antibody binding assays ...

Molecular Phylogeny of the Arenaviruses
2002Molecular approaches to the identification of viruses and the delineation of relationships among them has emerged as an important tool in virology only within the past 10–15 years. The rapidity and precision with which virus genetic sequences can now be acquired and the development of sophisticated methods for the phylogenetic analysis of this new ...

Neutralization of Arenaviruses by Antibody
1987Neutralization of infectivity is the end result of a number of alternative or synergistic reactions between a virus and antibody directed against certain antigenic determinants on its surface. These reactions prevent either the attachment of virus to a particular host cell by steric hindrance, the entry of virus into the cell, or the uncoating of the ...
