Generating bat primary and immortalised cell-lines from wing biopsies
Bats are becoming recognised as new model species to study naturally evolved mammalian extended healthspan and disease tolerance. However, this research is limited by the lack of bat specific cellular resources.

Ephrin B1 and B2 Mediate Cedar Virus Entry into Egyptian Fruit Bat Cells
Cedar virus (CedV), closely related to the Hendra and Nipah viruses, is a novel Henipavirus that was originally isolated from flying foxes in Australia in 2012. Although its glycoprotein G exhibits relatively low sequence similarity with its counterparts of the Hendra and Nipah viruses, CedV also uses ephrin receptors, i.e., ephrins B1, B2, A2 and A5 ...
