Simultaneously Reconstructing Viral Cross-Species Transmission History and Identifying the Underlying Constraints [PDF]

open access: yesPhilosophical Transactions of the Royal Society B: Biological Sciences, 2013
The factors that determine the origin and fate of cross-species transmission events remain unclear for the majority of human pathogens, despite being central for the development of predictive models and assessing the efficacy of prevention strategies ...

Cross-species transmission and recombination of ‘AIDS’ viruses

Philosophical Transactions of the Royal Society of London. Series B: Biological Sciences, 1995
Abstract Acquired Immune Deficiency Syndrome (AIDS) is caused by two different Human Immunodeficiency Viruses, HIV-1 and HIV-2. Closely related viruses (SIVs) are found in many species of non-human primates. Phylogenetic analyses indicate that cross-species transmission events have been quite frequent.

Cross-species microRNA transmission modulates flavivirus growth in mosquitoes

Trends in Parasitology, 2022
Mosquitoes can be infected with a variety of RNA viruses. Recently,Zhu et al. demonstrated that human microRNA hsa-miR-150-5p is acquired by mosquitoes during blood meals and protects the Dengue virus by downregulation of chymotrypsin AaCT-1 mRNA. This finding suggests the use of microRNA antagomirs as an antiviral approach in mosquitoes.

Cross-Species Retroviral Transmission From Macaques to Human Beings

Lancet, The, 2002
Cross-species transmission of simian foamy virus (SFV) to human beings from chimpanzees, baboons, and African green monkeys has been described. Although macaques are the non-human primate most often handled in research, human infection with SFV from macaques has not been reported.

Cross-Species Transmission of Poxviruses

2006
The poxviruses are an ancient group of intracellular pathogens whose “survival strategy” is based on the release of hardy virions from sites of replication on the external surface of the body. Their large size, complex genomes, and ability to replicate in the cytoplasm independent of the nucleus suggest that an ancestral agent was a free-living microbe

The molecular basis for cross‐species prion transmission

The FASEB Journal, 2016
Background A key event in the pathogenesis of prion diseases is the conversion of the cellular prion protein, PrP C , into a misfolded, self‐templating conformer called PrP Sc .

Molecular Determinants of Cross-Species Transmission in Emerging Viral Infections.

Microbiology and Molecular Biology Reviews
SUMMARY Several examples of high-impact cross-species transmission of newly emerging or re-emerging bat-borne viruses, such as Sudan virus, Nipah virus, and severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2, have occurred in the past decades.

Hepacivirus cross-species transmission and the origins of the hepatitis C virus

Current Opinion in Virology, 2016
Just 5 years ago the hepatitis C virus (HCV) - a major cause of liver disease infecting >3% of people worldwide - was the sole confirmed member of the Hepacivirus genus. Since then, genetically-diverse hepaciviruses have been isolated from bats, dogs, cows, horses, primates and rodents.

Potential for the cross-species transmission of swine torque teno viruses

Veterinary Microbiology, 2018
Torque teno viruses [TTVs] are negative sense, single-stranded, DNA viruses, which are distributed globally in several mammalian hosts such as humans, apes, sheep and swine in a species-specific manner. While the pathogenic potential of TTVs is under debate, recent experimental studies in gnotobiotic pigs indicate that swine TTVs, TTSuV1 in particular,
