Borna Disease Virus Infection Impairs Synaptic Plasticity [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Virology, 2007
ABSTRACT The mechanisms whereby Borna disease virus (BDV) can impair neuronal function and lead to neurobehavioral disease are not well understood. To analyze the electrophysiological properties of neurons infected with BDV, we used cultures of neurons grown on multielectrode arrays, allowing a real-time ...

Synaptic Plasticity and Neurological Disorders in Neurotropic Viral Infections [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Based on the type of cells or tissues they tend to harbor or attack, many of the viruses are characterized. But, in case of neurotropic viruses, it is not possible to classify them based on their tropism because many of them are not primarily neurotropic.

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
