Ebolavirus evolution and emergence are associated with land use change

open access: hybridEcological Monographs, Volume 95, Issue 1, February 2025.
Anthropogenic land use change facilitates disease emergence by altering the interface between humans and pathogen reservoirs and is hypothesized to drive pathogen evolution.

Ebolavirus replication and Tetherin/BST-2 [PDF]

open access: goldFrontiers in Microbiology, 2012
Ebolavirus (EBOV) is an enveloped, non-segmented, negative-stranded RNA virus, which consists of five species: Zaire ebolavirus (ZEBOV), Sudan ebolavirus (SEBOV), Tai Forest ebolavirus (TFEBOV), Bundibugyo ebolavirus (BEBOV), and Reston ebolavirus (REBOV)

Reversion of Ebolavirus Disease from a Single Intramuscular Injection of a Pan-Ebolavirus Immunotherapeutic

open access: yesPathogens, 2022
Intravenous (IV) administration of antiviral monoclonal antibodies (mAbs) can be challenging, particularly during an ongoing epidemic, due to the considerable resources required for performing infusions.

Pan-ebolavirus serology study of healthcare workers in the Mbandaka Health Region, Democratic Republic of the Congo.

open access: yesPLoS Neglected Tropical Diseases, 2022
Although multiple antigenically distinct ebolavirus species can cause human disease, previous serosurveys focused on only Zaire ebolavirus (EBOV). Thus, the extent of reactivity or exposure to other ebolaviruses, and which sociodemographic factors are ...

Newly discovered ebola virus associated with hemorrhagic fever outbreak in Uganda. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS Pathogens, 2008
Over the past 30 years, Zaire and Sudan ebolaviruses have been responsible for large hemorrhagic fever (HF) outbreaks with case fatalities ranging from 53% to 90%, while a third species, Côte d'Ivoire ebolavirus, caused a single non-fatal HF case.

Fruit–frugivore dependencies are important in Ebolavirus outbreaks in Sub-Saharan Africa

open access: yesEcography, Volume 2024, Issue 10, October 2024.
Ebolaviruses have the ability to infect a wide variety of species, with many African mammals potentially serving either as primary reservoirs or secondary amplifying hosts.

Structural Biology Illuminates Molecular Determinants of Broad Ebolavirus Neutralization by Human Antibodies for Pan-Ebolavirus Therapeutic Development

open access: yesFrontiers in Immunology, 2022
Monoclonal antibodies (mAbs) have proven effective for the treatment of ebolavirus infection in humans, with two mAb-based drugs Inmazeb™ and Ebanga™ receiving FDA approval in 2020.

Ebolavirus diagnosis made simple, comparable and faster than molecular detection methods: preparing for the future [PDF]

open access: goldVirology Journal, 2018
Background The 2014/2015 Ebolavirus outbreak resulted in more than 28,000 cases and 11,323 reported deaths, as of March 2016. Domestic transmission of the Guinea strain associated with the outbreak occurred mainly in six African countries, and ...

Traits, phylogeny and host cell receptors predict Ebolavirus host status among African mammals.

open access: yesPLoS Neglected Tropical Diseases, 2022
We explore how animal host traits, phylogenetic identity and cell receptor sequences relate to infection status and mortality from ebolaviruses. We gathered exhaustive databases of mortality from Ebolavirus after exposure and infection status based on ...

Bombali Ebolavirus in Mops condylurus Bats (Molossidae), Mozambique

open access: yesEmerging Infectious Diseases, 2022
We detected Bombali ebolavirus RNA in 3 free-tailed bats (Mops condylurus, Molossidae) in Mozambique. Sequencing of the large protein gene revealed 98% identity with viruses previously detected in Sierra Leone, Kenya, and Guinea.
