The neuropathology of fatal encephalomyelitis in human Borna virus infection [PDF]
After many years of controversy, there is now recent and solid evidence that classical Borna disease virus 1 (BoDV-1) can infect humans. On the basis of six brain autopsies, we provide the first systematic overview on BoDV-1 tissue distribution and the ...

Summary: Borna disease viruses (BoDV) have recently emerged as zoonotic neurotropic pathogens. These persistent RNA viruses assemble nuclear replication centers (vSPOT) in close interaction with the host chromatin.

Molecular epidemiology of human Borna disease virus 1 infection revisited
Borna disease virus 1 (BoDV-1) strains attracted public interest by recently reported rare fatal encephalitis cases in Germany. Previously, human BoDV-1 infection was suggested to contribute to psychiatric diseases.

Detection of bornavirus-reactive antibodies and BoDV-1 RNA only in encephalitis patients from virus endemic areas: a comparative serological and molecular sensitivity, specificity, predictive value, and disease duration correlation study. [PDF]
Abstract Purpose Human Borna disease virus (BoDV-1) encephalitis is an emerging disease in Germany. This study investigates the spectrum of human BoDV-1 infection, characterizes anti-BoDV-1-antibodies and kinetics, and compares laboratory test performances.

Risk factors for Borna disease virus 1 encephalitis in Germany – a case–control study
In 2018, Borna Disease Virus 1 (BoDV-1) was confirmed as a human zoonotic pathogen causing rare but fatal encephalitis in Germany. While diagnostic procedures and the clinical picture have been described, epidemiology remains mysterious.
