Virus discovery reveals frequent infection by diverse novel members of the Flaviviridae in wild lemurs [PDF]
Lemurs are highly endangered mammals inhabiting the forests of Madagascar. In this study, we performed virus discovery on serum samples collected from 84 wild lemurs and identified viral sequence fragments from 4 novel viruses within the family Flaviviridae, including members of the genera Hepacivirus and Pegivirus.

Disease associated with BVDV infection can be devastating ranging to millions of dollars in loss to the cattle industry. As well, infection with BVDV leads to an immune-suppressed host though an unknown mechanism(s). Although there are vaccines available, they are not broadly protective and ineffective in PI cattle.

Encephalitic Arboviruses of Africa: Emergence, Clinical Presentation and Neuropathogenesis
Many mosquito-borne viruses (arboviruses) are endemic in Africa, contributing to systemic and neurological infections in various geographical locations on the continent. While most arboviral infections do not lead to neuroinvasive diseases of the central

Pathogenesis of Modoc Virus (Flaviviridae; Flavivirus) in Persistently Infected Hamsters [PDF]
The long-term persistence of Modoc virus (MODV) infection was investigated in a hamster model. Golden hamsters (Mesocricetus auratus) were infected by subcutaneous inoculation with MODV, in which fatal encephalitis developed in 12.5% (2 of 16). Surviving hamsters shed infectious MODV in their urine during the first five months after infection, and ...

Anti-flavivirus Properties of Lipid-Lowering Drugs
Although Flaviviruses such as dengue (DENV) and zika (ZIKV) virus are important human pathogens, an effective vaccine or antiviral treatment against them is not available. Hence, the search for new strategies to control flavivirus infections is essential.
