Long-Term Survival of Borna Disease Virus 1 (BoDV-1)-Encephalitis: An Exceptional Case with Valuable Insights for Pathophysiology and Disease Management [PDF]
Introduction Borna disease virus 1 (BoDV-1) encephalitis has a (sub)acute and mostly fatal course. Initial flu-like symptoms are typically followed by rapid progressive panencephalitis and death within weeks. No curative therapy exists so far. We present

BoDV-1 Infection Is Associated with Altered Prion Protein Glycoform Maturation and Reduced ETS1-MGAT5/GnTV Pathway Activity in Rat C6 Astroglial Cells [PDF]
Borna disease virus 1 (BoDV-1) is a noncytolytic, neurotrophic virus that causes neurological disorders, where astrocytes contribute to neuropathology. Cellular prion protein (PrPC) is involved in pro-survival signaling and antioxidative defense.

Borna Disease Virus 1 as Cause of Fatal Meningoencephalomyelitis in Wild Hedgehogs, Germany, 2022–2025 [PDF]
Borna disease virus 1 (BoDV-1) causes encephalitis with a fatality rate of >90% in domestic mammals and humans. Currently, the bicolored white-toothed shrew is the only known reservoir host. We report BoDV-1 infections in 15 wild European hedgehogs from
