Diverse hosts, diverse immune systems: Evolutionary variation in bat immunology
Bats are recognized to have distinct immune systems from other vertebrates that may allow them to host virulent pathogens without showing disease. However, these flying mammals are also incredibly diverse, such that bats should not be expected to be immunologically homogenous.

Background: The lack of effective vaccines against Ebola virus initiates a search for new approaches to overcoming this problem. The aim of the study was to design artificial polyepitope T-cell immunogens—candidate DNA vaccines against Ebola virus and to

Isolation and Phylogenetic Characterization of Ebola Viruses Causing Different Outbreaks in Gabon
Three outbreaks of Ebola hemorrhagic fever have recently occurred in Gabon. Virus has been isolated from clinical materials from all three outbreaks, and nucleotide sequence analysis of the glycoprotein gene of the isolates and virus present in clinical ...

Immune parameters and outcomes during Ebola virus disease.
BACKGROUND The West African Ebola virus epidemic from 2014-2016 highlighted the lack of knowledge about the pathogenicity of the virus and the factors responsible for outcome.

Posttranslational modifications of heterologous proteins expressed in Nicotiana benthamiana
Summary The success of Nicotiana benthamiana as a workhorse for heterologous protein production is closely linked to its accessibility and tolerance to genetic manipulation, allowing efficient engineering of posttranslational protein modifications (PTMs) that are critical for the function and stability of heterologous proteins.

Monoclonal Antibody Therapy for Ebola Virus Disease.
Early reports in 1976 and 1995 documented cases in the Democratic Republic of Congo (DRC) of what we now know to be Ebola virus disease (EVD) caused by Zaire ebolavirus.

Political identity and risk politics: Evidence from a pandemic
Abstract The way political identity serves as a foundation for political polarization in the United States permits elites to extend conflict rapidly to new issue areas. Further, the types of cognitive mechanisms and shortcuts used in the politically polarized information environment are similar to some of those used in risk perception.

Ebola Virus Infection Associated with Transmission from Survivors
Ebola virus (EBOV) can persist in immunologically protected body sites in survivors of Ebola virus disease, creating the potential to initiate new chains of transmission. From the outbreak in West Africa during 2014–2016, we identified 13 possible events
