Borna Disease Virus

Journal of Neurovirology, 2002
Borna disease virus, a negative-strand RNA virus, infects a wide variety of warm-blooded animals. Depending on the age of the host and the integrity of its immune response, infection may be asymptomatic or cause a broad spectrum of behavioral disorders.

Borna Disease in Horses

Veterinary Clinics of North America: Equine Practice, 2000
Borna disease is a sporadically occurring, progressive viral polioencephalomyelitis that primarily affects horses and sheep. The etiological agent, Borna disease virus (BDV), is an enveloped, single-stranded RNA virus that has been classified in the new virus family Bornaviridae within the order Mononegavirales.

Borna disease virus – Fact and fantasy

open access: yesVirus Research, 2011
The occasion of Brian Mahy's retirement as editor of Virus Research provides an opportunity to reflect on the work that led one of the authors (Lipkin) to meet him shortly after the molecular discovery and characterization of Borna disease virus in the late 1980s, and work with authors Briese and Hornig to investigate mechanisms of pathogenesis and its

Neurotransmitter abnormalities in Borna disease

Brain Research, 1988
Borna disease (BD) agent is an infectious pathogen that causes progressive central nervous system (CNS) dysfunction in a wide range of vertebrate hosts. The course of BD in adult rats is biphasic. The acute phase is characterized by aggressive behavior and inflammatory cell infiltrates in brain.

Dementia and Borna Disease Virus

Dementia and Geriatric Cognitive Disorders, 1997
Human Borna disease virus (BDV) infection has been reported to be a threat to mental health [1]. BDV is an unclassified, nonsegmented negative sense single-stranded RNA virus which naturally infects horses, cattle, cats and sheep [2, 3]. Infection causes disturbances in behavior and cognitive function [1].

Immunopathogenesis of Borna Disease

1995
Diseases of the central nervous system are fearsome conditions due to their deleterious effects on physical and mental functions. In addition to acute diseases caused by viruses and bacteria infecting the meninges and the brain, disturbances of motility, disorders in sensory functions, behavioral abnormalities, personality changes and chronic debility ...

Borna—A slow virus disease

Comparative Immunology, Microbiology and Infectious Diseases, 1978
Abstract Borna is an ideal model for the study of the pathogenesis of slow virus diseases. Our present knowledge of the nature of the agent, the immunology, the pathogenesis, the different courses of infection and diagnosis is described. The wide host and cell spectrum of Borna virus leads one to suppose that Borna infections are more widespread ...
