A New Model for Hendra Virus Encephalitis in the Mouse
PLoS ONE, 2012 Hendra virus (HeV) infection in humans is characterized by an influenza like illness, which may progress to pneumonia or encephalitis and lead to death. The pathogenesis of HeV infection is poorly understood, and the lack of a mouse model has limited the opportunities for pathogenetic research.

Pathogenesis of Hendra and Nipah virus infection in humans
The Journal of Infection in Developing Countries, 2013 Hendra virus (HeV) and Nipah virus (NiV) are emerging zoonotic viruses that cause severe and often lethal respiratory illness and encephalitis in humans. Henipaviruses can infect a wide range of species and human-to-human transmission has been observed for NiV.
