Treatment of hantavirus pulmonary syndrome [PDF]

Antiviral Research, 2008
Viruses in the genus Hantavirus can cause one of two serious illnesses when transmitted from rodents to humans: hemorrhagic fever with renal syndrome (HFRS) or hantavirus pulmonary syndrome (HPS). Of the two diseases, HPS is more severe with an approximate 40% mortality across the Americas.

Disseminated Cutaneous, Osteoarticular, and Tubulointerstitial Sporotrichosis in an Immunosenescent and Diabetic Host: A Case Report

Case Reports in Dermatological Medicine, Volume 2025, Issue 1, 2025.
Introduction Disseminated sporotrichosis is an uncommon presentation of this infectious disease, primarily observed in immunocompromised patients. Here, we present a case of disseminated sporotrichosis occurring in an immunosenescent patient. Case presentation An 81‐year‐old man presented to our clinic with skin ulcers in the scalp, back, right arm ...

Fatal Liver Failure After Herpes‐Simplex‐Virus‐2‐Induced Acute Necrotizing Hepatitis: A Case Report

Case Reports in Hepatology, Volume 2025, Issue 1, 2025.
Herpes simplex virus (HSV) infections are common in the European population, typically presenting with mucocutaneous and anogenital manifestations. However, disseminated infections and organ involvement are rare, usually occurring in immunocompromised individuals, particularly after hematopoietic stem cell or solid organ transplantation. HSV1/2‐induced

Natural Killer Cells in Cancers of Respiratory System and Their Applications in Therapeutic Approaches

Immunity, Inflammation and Disease, Volume 12, Issue 11, November 2024.
This article is a novel and comprehensive review of the roles of natural killer cells in various cancers of the respiratory system. It also discusses how those cells can be used to design cancer therapies to treat cancers of the respiratory system. ABSTRACT Background Cancer is still regarded as a major worldwide health issue due to its high health and

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

Investigation of Viral, Bacterial and Parasitic Zoonotic Diseases in Rodents in Turkey

Veterinary Medicine and Science, Volume 10, Issue 6, November 2024.
Rodents are reservoir hosts for zoonotic pathogens. In this study, the presence of viral lymphocytic choriomeningitis and hantavirus infections, bacterial tularaemia and leptospirosis, and parasitic leishmaniasis and toxoplasmosis were investigated in 498 rodents collected in Erzurum province, Turkey.

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)

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.
