Dendritic Cells (DCs) as “Fire Accelerants” of Hantaviral Pathogenesis
Viruses, 2019 Hantaviruses are widespread zoonotic pathogens found around the globe. Depending on their geographical location, hantaviruses can cause two human syndromes, haemorrhagic fever with renal syndrome (HFRS) or hantavirus pulmonary syndrome (HPS).

Hantavirus pulmonary syndrome in the United States [PDF]
Current Infectious Disease Reports, 2001 Since the first outbreak of hantavirus pulmonary syndrome (HPS) in 1993, understanding of the vast distribution and potential impact of hantaviruses has grown. At least 277 cases of HPS have been documented in the United States. The full clinical spectrum has yet to be elucidated, and one outbreak suggested the possibility of person-to-person ...
