Zoonotic and reverse zoonotic transmission of viruses between humans and pigs

open access: yesAPMIS, Volume 129, Issue 12, Page 675-693, December 2021., 2021
Humans and pigs share a close contact relationship, similar biological traits, and one of the highest estimated number of viruses compared to other mammalian species. The contribution and directionality of viral exchange between humans and pigs remain unclear for some of these viruses, but their transmission routes are important to characterize in ...

Filiviruses of southeast Asia, China and Europe (review)

open access: yesЖурнал инфектологии, 2019
Filoviruses are known as causative agents of severe haemorrhagic fevers with a high mortality rate in humans. Zaire ebolavirus and Marburgvirus, the most known of them, are associated with the occurrence of sporadic cases and outbreaks of hemorrhagic ...

Between virus correlations in the outcome of infection across host species: Evidence of virus by host species interactions

open access: yesEvolution Letters, Volume 5, Issue 5, Page 472-483, October 2021., 2021
Abstract Virus host shifts are a major source of outbreaks and emerging infectious diseases, and predicting the outcome of novel host and virus interactions remains a key challenge for virus research. The evolutionary relationships between host species can explain variation in transmission rates, virulence, and virus community composition between hosts,

Macrophage infection, activation, and histopathological findings in ebolavirus infection

open access: yesFrontiers in Cellular and Infection Microbiology, 2022
Macrophages contribute to Ebola virus disease through their susceptibility to direct infection, their multi-faceted response to ebolaviruses, and their association with pathological findings in tissues throughout the body.

Experimental Infection of Bundibugyo Virus in Domestic Swine Leads to Viral Shedding with Evidence of Intraspecies Transmission. [PDF]

open access: yesTransbound Emerg Dis
The Ebolavirus genus contains several of the deadliest zoonotic viruses known. One of these, Bundibugyo virus (BDBV), has been the causative agent of two outbreaks of human disease that have resulted in 211 known cases with a case fatality rate of 33.6%.

Susceptibility of domestic pigs to experimental infection with ebolaviruses [PDF]

open access: yes, 2022
The Ebolavirus genus contains several of the deadliest zoonotic viruses known. Though bats are routinely implicated as the possible reservoir host for the ebolaviruses, the involvement of other species in ecology of these viruses is unclear.

Tolerance and Persistence of Ebola Virus in Primary Cells from Mops condylurus, a Potential Ebola Virus Reservoir

open access: yesViruses, 2021
Although there have been documented Ebola virus disease outbreaks for more than 40 years, the natural reservoir host has not been identified. Recent studies provide evidence that the Angolan free-tailed bat (Mops condylurus), an insectivorous microbat ...

Combinatorial peptide-based epitope mapping from Ebola virus DNA vaccines and infections reveals residue-level determinants of antibody binding

open access: yesHuman Vaccines & Immunotherapeutics, 2017
Ebola virus (EBOV) infection is highly lethal and results in severe febrile bleeding disorders that affect humans and non-human primates. One of the therapeutic approaches for treating EBOV infection focus largely on cocktails of monoclonal antibodies ...
