Conserved Endonuclease Function of Hantavirus L Polymerase. [PDF]
Hantaviruses are important emerging pathogens belonging to the Bunyaviridae family. Like other segmented negative strand RNA viruses, the RNA-dependent RNA polymerase (RdRp) also known as L protein of hantaviruses lacks an intrinsic "capping activity ...

A Cluster of Three Cases of Hantavirus Pulmonary Syndrome among Canadian Military Personnel
Hantavirus pulmonary syndrome (HPS) is a rare illness in eastern Canada. We present three cases of HPS among military personnel in Quebec. The three cases shared a common exposure to mouse excreta while engaged in military training in Alberta, a western province of Canada.

Human hantavirus infections: epidemiology, clinical features, pathogenesis and immunology
In humans, hantaviruses can cause haemorrhagic fever with renal syndrome (HFRS) or hantavirus cardiopulmonary syndrome (HCPS). Currently it is estimated that 150,000 to 200,000 cases of hantavirus disease occur each year, the majority being reported

Sin Nombre Viral RNA Load in Patients with Hantavirus Cardiopulmonary Syndrome [PDF]
To address the role that viral load plays in pathogenesis in patients with hantavirus cardiopulmonary syndrome (HCPS), we quantified Sin Nombre virus S segment viral RNA in plasma samples from 27 acutely ill patients. For 6 patients, we examined viral load in matched plasma, urine, and/or tracheal aspirate throughout the time when the patients were in ...

Delayed viral clearance despite high number of activated T cells during the acute phase in Argentinean patients with hantavirus pulmonary syndrome [PDF]
Background: The hallmarks of HPS are increase of vascular permeability and endothelial dysfunction. Although an exacerbated immune response is thought to be implicated in pathogenesis, clear evidence is still elusive.

In this review, we synthesize mechanistic evidence for diversity‐disease patterns in rodent‐orthohantavirus systems in the Americas, models of directly transmitted disease systems. We found that host regulation has been examined the most while other mechanisms have received less attention. Based on our findings, we propose that for a negative diversity‐

Hemophagocytic lymphohistiocytosis (HLH) is a rare and potential life‐threatening clinical syndrome that results from uncontrolled activation of the immune system. Secondary HLH, more commonly observed in adult patients, is seen in the context of underlying triggering conditions.

Orthohantavirus Survey in Indigenous Lands in a Savannah-Like Biome, Brazil
In Brazil, the first confirmed cases of hantavirus cardiopulmonary syndrome in Indigenous populations occurred in 2001. The purpose of this study was to determine the seroprevalence of orthohantavirus infections in the Utiariti Indigenous land located in

Human and rodent humoral immune responses to Andes virus structural proteins [PDF]
In the present work we identified B-cell epitopes recognized by sera of humans and rodents naturally infected with Andes virus, a hantavirus present in Chile and Argentina.
