Ebolavirus Species-Specific Interferon Antagonism Mediated by VP24

open access: yesViruses, 2023
Members of the Ebolavirus genus demonstrate a marked differences in pathogenicity in humans with Ebola (EBOV) being the most pathogenic, Bundibugyo (BDBV) less pathogenic, and Reston (RESTV) is not known to cause a disease in humans.

Pathogenicity and Virulence of Ebolaviruses with Species- and Variant-specificity

open access: yesVirulence, 2021
Ebola virus (EBOV), belonging to the species Zaire ebolavirus in the genus Ebolavirus, causes a severe febrile illness in humans with case fatality rates (CFRs) up to 90%.

A predictive model of ebolavirus spillover incorporating change in forests and human populations across spatial and temporal scales

open access: yesmedRxiv, 2023
Past research has found associations between ebolavirus spillover and forest loss and fragmentation, although most predictions of the spatial distribution of ebolaviruses have not utilized these data.

Development and validation of portable, field-deployable Ebola virus point-of-encounter diagnostic assay for wildlife surveillance

open access: yesOne Health Outlook, 2021
Early detection of Ebola virus spillover into wildlife is crucial for rapid response. We developed and validated a portable, cold-chain independent Ebola virus RT-qPCR assay.

Re-emergence of Sudan ebolavirus after a decade: new challenge to Ebola control

open access: yesInternational Journal of Surgery, 2023
Dear Editor, Outbreaks of African filoviruses often have resulted into high mortality, and of these, the West Africa Ebola outbreak during 2014–2016 accounted for more than 11 000 deaths among around 28 000 cases.

One-Step Reverse-Transcription FRET-PCR for Differential Detection of Five Ebolavirus Species. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2015
Ebola is an emerging infectious disease caused by a deadly virus belonging to the family Filoviridae, genus Ebolavirus. Based on their geographical distribution, Ebolavirus has been classified into total five species so far, mainly Zaire, Sudan, Taï ...

Lactic acid bacterial surface display of scytovirin inhibitors for anti-ebolavirus infection

open access: yesFrontiers in Microbiology, 2023
Scytovirin (SVN) is a lectin from cyanobacteria which has a strong inhibitory activity against Ebola virus infection. We engineered scytovirin as the inhibitor for surface display of lactic acid bacteria to block Ebola virus infection.

Tracking ebolavirus genomic drift with a resequencing microarray.

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2022
Filoviruses are emerging pathogens that cause acute fever with high fatality rate and present a global public health threat. During the 2013-2016 Ebola virus outbreak, genome sequencing allowed the study of virus evolution, mutations affecting ...

Ebolavirus: Infection, Vaccination and Control [PDF]

open access: bronzeMolecular Genetics, Microbiology and Virology, 2021
Members of the genus Ebolavirus (family Filoviridae) are among the deadliest viral pathogens spread throughout the world with severe rate of mortality, at least 90% in some outbreaks. Their virions are filamentous and enveloped with enclosed negative-sense single-stranded RNA genome.

Ebolavirus and Other Filoviruses [PDF]

open access: yes, 2007
(Uploaded by Plazi for the Bat Literature Project) Since Ebola fever emerged in Central Africa in 1976, a number of studies have been undertaken to investigate its natural history and to characterize its transmission from a hypothetical reservoir host(s) to humans.
