Analysis of BoDV-1 status, EEG resting-state alpha activity and pro-inflammatory cytokines in adults with and without major depressive disorder

Frontiers in Psychology
IntroductionIn severe cases, an infection with the Borna Disease Virus 1 (BoDV-1), the causative agent of Borna disease in horses, sheep, and other domestic mammals, was reported to be accompanied by cognitive dysfunctions, seizures, deep coma, or severe

Influence of Host and Landscape‐Associated Factors in the Infection and Transmission of Pathogens: The Case of Directly Transmitted Virus in Mammals

Veterinary Medicine and Science, Volume 11, Issue 1, January 2025.
The figure shows the effects (increasing upward arrow or decreasing downward arrow) the most common host traits, landscape attributes, climatic features and anthropogenic variables recorded in the review had on the infection and transmission of directly transmitted virus to mammals.

First isolation, in-vivo and genomic characterization of zoonotic variegated squirrel Bornavirus 1 (VSBV-1) isolates

Emerging Microbes and Infections, 2020
The variegated squirrel bornavirus 1 (VSBV-1), a member of the family Bornaviridae, was discovered in 2015 in a series of lethal human infections. Screening approaches revealed kept exotic squirrels as the putative source of infection.Infectious virus ...

Established and Emerging Roles of DEAD/H‐Box Helicases in Regulating Infection and Immunity

Immunological Reviews, Volume 329, Issue 1, January 2025.
ABSTRACT The sensing of nucleic acids by DEAD/H‐box helicases, specifically retinoic acid‐inducible gene I (RIG‐I) and melanoma differentiation‐associated protein 5 (MDA5), plays a critical role in inducing antiviral immunity following infection. However, this DEAD/H‐box helicase family includes many additional proteins whose immune functions have not ...

Comparative study of virus and lymphocyte distribution with clinical data suggests early high dose immunosuppression as potential key factor for the therapy of patients with BoDV-1 infection

Emerging Microbes and Infections
Borna disease virus 1 (BoDV-1) was just recently shown to cause predominantly fatal encephalitis in humans. Despite its rarity, bornavirus encephalitis (BVE) can be considered a model disease for encephalitic infections caused by neurotropic viruses and ...

Toxoplasma gondii Infection of BALB/c Mice Perturbs Host Neurochemistry

Parasite Immunology, Volume 46, Issue 11, November 2024.
ABSTRACT Toxoplasma gondii infection has been associated with psychoneurological disease in humans and behavioural changes in rodents. However, the mechanisms accounting for this have not been fully described and in some cases could be argued to reflect the severe neuropathology that some mice suffer during infection.

Infection burden, periodontal pathogens, and their interactive association with incident all‐cause and Alzheimer's disease dementia in a large national survey

Alzheimer's &Dementia, Volume 20, Issue 9, Page 6468-6485, September 2024.
Abstract INTRODUCTION Relationships and interplay of an infection burden (IB) and periodontal pathogens or periodontal disease (Pd) markers with Alzheimer's disease (AD) and all‐cause dementia among US adults were examined. METHODS Less than or equal to 2997 participants from the National Health and Nutrition Survey III were linked to CMS‐Medicare [≥45

Tumour or haemorrhage?: Differential diagnosis of an unknown mass within the brain of a budgerigar (Melopsittacus undulatus) using a novel imaging pipeline

Veterinary Record Case Reports, Volume 12, Issue 3, September 2024.
Abstract We report on a previously healthy zoo specimen of an adult budgerigar (Melopsittacus undulatus, obtained with permission from Southwick's Zoo) found deceased in its enclosure. To assess cause of death and ensure the absence of an infectious neoplasia, we used an integrated multiscale brain‐imaging workflow, previously only used on mammals. The

Culture as response

Ethos, Volume 52, Issue 2, Page 308-323, June 2024.
Abstract To explain cultural diversity, many theories refer to the social construction of reality. In this telling, we frame the world to make it meaningful. In my analysis of what people in Namibia and Germany know about “SARS‐Cov‐2” and “climate change,” I propose an anti‐constructivist alternative. Drawing on the work of the phenomenologist Bernhard
