Estimating pathogen‐spillover risk using host–ectoparasite interactions

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 14, Issue 6, June 2024.
Understanding the interacting factors that lead to pathogen transmission in a zoonotic cycle could help identify novel hosts of pathogens and the patterns that lead to disease emergence. We use parasite ecology, phylogenetics, and geography to predict known and unknown hosts of hantavirus.

Two Atypical Cases of Hantavirus Infections from Sri Lanka

Case Reports in Infectious Diseases, 2018
There are two categories of hantaviruses resulting in two distinct illnesses. The Old World (Asia and Europe) viruses give rise to hemorrhagic fever with renal syndrome (HFRS), and the New World (Americas) viruses cause hantavirus pulmonary syndrome (HPS)

NK cell activation in human hantavirus infection explained by virus-induced IL-15/IL15Rα expression. [PDF]

PLoS Pathogens, 2014
Clinical infection with hantaviruses cause two severe acute diseases, hemorrhagic fever with renal syndrome (HFRS) and hantavirus pulmonary syndrome (HPS). These diseases are characterized by strong immune activation, increased vascular permeability, and

Human behaviors driving disease emergence

Evolutionary Anthropology: Issues, News, and Reviews, Volume 33, Issue 2, April 2024.
Abstract Interactions between humans, animals, and the environment facilitate zoonotic spillover—the transmission of pathogens from animals to humans. Narratives that cast modern humans as exogenous and disruptive forces that encroach upon “natural” disease systems limit our understanding of human drivers of disease.

Extracellular Vesicles: The Invisible Heroes and Villains of COVID‐19 Central Neuropathology

Advanced Science, Volume 11, Issue 10, March 13, 2024.
On the one hand, EVs aid SARS‐CoV‐2 invasion in the nervous system. And the pro‐inflammatory, pro‐coagulant contents of EVs may drive lead to neuroinflammation and cerebral thrombosis in COVID‐19 neurological complications. On the other hand, EVs are potential candidates for prevention and treatment of COVID‐19 central neuropathology due to their ...

SuPAR, biomarkers of inflammation, and severe outcomes in patients hospitalized for COVID‐19: The International Study of Inflammation in COVID‐19

Journal of Medical Virology, Volume 96, Issue 1, January 2024.
Abstract Severe coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID‐19) is a hyperinflammatory syndrome. The biomarkers of inflammation best suited to triage patients with COVID‐19 are unknown. We conducted a prospective multicenter observational study of adult patients hospitalized specifically for COVID‐19 from February 1, 2020 to October 19, 2022.
