Peripheral immune responses to filoviruses in a reservoir versus spillover hosts reveal transcriptional correlates of disease

open access: yesFrontiers in Immunology
Several filoviruses, including Marburg virus (MARV), cause severe disease in humans and nonhuman primates (NHPs). However, the Egyptian rousette bat (ERB, Rousettus aegyptiacus), the only known MARV reservoir, shows no overt illness upon natural or ...

The latest advancements in Sosuga virus (SOSV) research

open access: yesFrontiers in Microbiology
The last 60 years have seen the emergence of several zoonotic viruses, some of which originate from bats. Among these are Nipah virus, Marburg virus and Ebola viruses, which have high case fatality rates, and pose significant public health risks. In 2012,

Coordinated inflammatory responses dictate Marburg virus control by reservoir bats

open access: yesNature Communications
Bats are increasingly recognized as reservoirs of emerging zoonotic pathogens. Egyptian rousette bats (ERBs) are the known reservoir of Marburg virus (MARV), a filovirus that causes deadly Marburg virus disease (MVD) in humans.

Behavioral risk assessment of exposure to wild and domestic animals in response to a Marburg virus disease outbreak, Ghana 2022

open access: yesOne Health
In July 2022, Ghana reported its first outbreak of Marburg virus disease (MVD). The source of the outbreak was unknown. In August 2022 we conducted a behavioral risk assessment, surveying 715 participants in three rural communities associated with the ...

Modeling natural coinfection in a bat reservoir shows modulation of Marburg virus shedding and spillover potential.

open access: yesPLoS Pathogens
The Egyptian rousette bat (ERB) is a natural reservoir for Marburg virus (MARV; family Filoviridae), a putative reservoir for Sosuga virus (SOSV; family Paramyxoviridae), and a vertebrate reservoir for Kasokero virus (KASV; family Orthonairoviridae ...
