Differentiation of filoviruses by electron microscopy [PDF]
Cultured monolayers of MA-104, Vero 76, SW-13, and DBS-FRhL-2 cells were infected with Marburg (MBG), Ebola-Sudan (EBO-S), Ebola-Zaire (EBO-Z), and Ebola-Reston (EBO-R) viruses (Filoviridae, Filovirus) and examined by electron microscopy to provide ultrastructural details of morphology and morphogenesis of these potential human pathogens.

Filovirus-reactive antibodies in humans and bats in Northeast India imply zoonotic spillover.
Bats are reservoirs for several zoonotic pathogens, including filoviruses. Recent work highlights the diversity of bat borne filoviruses in Asia. High risk activities at the bat-human interface pose the threat of zoonotic virus transmission.

Ebola Virus IgG Seroprevalence in Southern Mali
Mali had 2 reported introductions of Ebola virus (EBOV) during the 2013–2016 West Africa epidemic. Previously, no evidence for EBOV circulation was reported in Mali. We performed an EBOV serosurvey study in southern Mali.

Summary: Antibodies that target the glycan cap epitope on the ebolavirus glycoprotein (GP) are common in the adaptive response of survivors. A subset is known to be broadly neutralizing, but the details of their epitopes and basis for neutralization are ...

Tuning the Length of Filomicelles Prepared Via Templated Polymerization‐Induced Self‐Assembly
High‐aspect‐ratio polymeric micelles are attractive yet notoriously difficult to control in length. We reveal a counterintuitive and powerful solution: in supramolecularly templated PISA, adding non‐sticker polymer unexpectedly elongates the micelles, while post‐assembly sonication enables precise shortening with reduced dispersity.

Macrophages are one of the first and also a major site of filovirus replication and, in addition, are a source of multiple cytokines, presumed to play a critical role in the pathogenesis of the viral infection. Some of these cytokines are known to induce

Targeted Interventions in HAM/TSP: Emerging Therapies and Future Directions – A Narrative Review
ABSTRACT Background and Aim Human T‐Lymphotropic virus type 1 (HTLV‐1) infection can lead to HTLV‐1‐associated myelopathy/tropical spastic paraparesis (HAM/TSP), a debilitating chronic neurological disease characterized by progressive lower limb spasticity and autonomic dysfunction.

Forty-Five Years of Marburg Virus Research
In 1967, the first reported filovirus hemorrhagic fever outbreak took place in Germany and the former Yugoslavia. The causative agent that was identified during this outbreak, Marburg virus, is one of the most deadly human pathogens.

Can a shorter peptide be a better antiviral? Structure‐guided optimization of the amphibian peptide Hs‐1 reveals a minimal α‐helical core that, after terminal modification, displays enhanced stability and submicromolar broad‐spectrum activity against enveloped viruses while maintaining a favorable safety profile. Antimicrobial peptides (AMPs) represent

By integrating data from in vitro, ex vivo, and in vivo models, our research identifies the MARV glycoprotein as a remarkable hemorrhagic factor, filling a major gap in this important field. It also provides practical experimental tools for the basic research on viral pathogenesis and applied research aimed at antiviral intervention for hemorrhagic ...
