Cellular Factors Implicated in Filovirus Entry [PDF]
Although filoviral infections are still occurring in different parts of the world, there are no effective preventive or treatment strategies currently available against them. Not only do filoviruses cause a deadly infection, but they also have the potential of being used as biological weapons.

Investigating Filovirus Expression in Monodelphis domestica
In this study, we explored the expression of a filovirus nucleoprotein (NP) gene and a filovirus RNA dependent RNA polymerase (L) gene in Monodelphis domestica. While we know that these filovirus genes are maintained within M.

Identification of Filovirus Entry Inhibitors from Marine Fungus-Derived Indole Alkaloids
Filoviruses, mainly consisting of the two genera of Ebolavirus and Marburgvirus, are enveloped negative-strand RNA viruses that can infect humans to cause severe hemorrhagic fevers and outbreaks with high mortality rates.

Infection Risk From Humans and Animals in the Anatomy Laboratory: A Scoping Review
ABSTRACT Whole‐body dissection is a cornerstone of anatomy education. During and following the COVID‐19 pandemic, exposure to infectious agents and other risks of dissection were highlighted. To identify potential risks, one must have the data outlining these risks in specific situations.

The filovirus surface glycoprotein (GP) mediates viral entry into host cells. Following viral internalization into endosomes, GP is cleaved by host cysteine proteases to expose a receptor-binding site (RBS) that is otherwise hidden from immune ...

The target sites of COVID‐19 antivirals discussed in the present opinion paper, namely the RNA dependent RNA polymerase Nsp12 and of the main viral protease Nsp5, are indicated by a red star in the overview of the replication cycle of coronavirus SARS‐CoV‐2.

Filoviruses: One of These Things is (not) Like the Other
The family Filoviridae contains several of the most deadly pathogens known to date and the current Ebola virus disease (EVD) outbreak in Western Africa, due to Ebola virus (EBOV) infection, highlights the need for active and broad research into filovirus

Cohorts of immature Pteropus bats show interannual variation in Hendra virus serology
Pteropus bat with offspring, photo taken by Manuel Ruiz‐Aravena. Abstract Understanding the drivers of seasonal disease outbreaks remains a fundamental challenge in disease ecology. Periodic outbreaks can be driven by several seasonally varying factors, including pulses of susceptible individuals through births, changes in host behaviour and social ...
