Borna disease virus infection in cats

The Veterinary Journal, 2014
Bornaviruses are known to cause neurological disorders in a number of animal species. Avian Bornavirus (ABV) causes proventricular dilatation disease (PDD) in birds and Borna disease virus (BDV) causes Borna disease in horses and sheep. BDV also causes staggering disease in cats, characterised by ataxia, behavioural changes and loss of postural ...

Borna disease virus and deficit schizophrenia

Acta Neuropsychiatrica, 2003
Background:It is controversial whether Borna disease virus (BDV) infects humans and causes psychiatric disorders.Objectives:The relationship between BDV infection and schizophrenia with deficit syndrome was investigated.Study design:Using the Schedule for the Deficit Syndrome, 62 schizophrenic in-patients were selected from three psychiatric hospitals.

Genetic Relationship of Borna Disease Virus Isolates

Virus Genes, 2003
The infection of humans with Boma disease virus (BDV) is still a matter of debate. In a recent publication, we described a BDV (RW98) isolated from the blood of a psychiatric patient. The RNA of this virus differed more than 5% from that of the widely used strain He/80, which was supposed to represent our laboratory virus.

Molecular Biology of Borna Disease Virus

1995
Originally described in the early nineteenth century as a fatal encephalitis in horses, Borna disease (BD) has become an extraordinarily valuable model for the study of both molecular mechanisms and biological consequences of persistent virus infection in the CNS (Nicolau and Galloway 1928; Zwick 1939, this volume).

Borna Disease Virus

2016
The neurotropic virus, Borna disease virus (BDV), a member of a group of nonsegmented, negative strand ribonucleic acid (RNA) viruses (order Mononegavirales), infects warm-blooded animal species. Infection among mammals may be asymptomatic, produce neurobehavioral abnormalities, or result in fatal meningoencephalitis.

The immunopathogenesis of Borna disease virus infection

Frontiers in Bioscience, 2002
Borna disease virus (BDV) infection represents an excellent model system to study immunopathological mechanisms based on a T cell-mediated immune reaction in the central nervous system. The single-stranded RNA Borna disease virus, a member of Bornaviridae in the order of Mononegavirale, lacks cytopathogenicity both in vitro and in vivo.

Full‐length genomic sequencing and characterization of Borna disease virus 1 isolates: Lessons in epidemiology

Journal of Medical Virology, 2020
Borna disease virus 1 (BoDV‐1) is a nonsegmented, negative‐strand RNA virus that infects mammals including humans. BoDV‐1 strains occur globally, dominate the species Mammalian 1 bornavirus, and display highly conserved genomes and persistent infection ...

Sequence characterization of human Borna disease virus

Virus Research, 1996
Borna disease virus (BDV) causes a central nervous system disease in several vertebrate animal species, which is manifest by behavioral abnormalities. Seroepidemiologic data suggest that BDV might infect humans, possibly being associated with certain mental disorders.

Borna disease virus interference with neuronal plasticity

Virus Research, 2005
Viruses able to infect the central nervous system (CNS) are increasingly being recognized as important factors that can cause mental diseases by interfering with neuronal plasticity. The mechanisms whereby such infections disturb brain functions are beginning to emerge.

Borna Disease Virus

Archives of General Psychiatry, 1985
Borna disease virus is a unique neurotropic agent that appears to have a predilection for the limbic area of the brain. In some animal species, it can produce a behavioral syndrome characterized by aggressive and passive phases. This syndrome has suggested an analogy to certain human affective disorders.
