Diseases caused by henipaviruses, exemplified by Hendra virus and Nipah virus, pose a serious risk to public health because of their epidemic potential and high case-fatality rates and the paucity of medical countermeasures to mitigate them. In December

Hendra virus disease (HeV) [PDF]
Hendra virus (HeV) is a member of the family Paramyxoviridae and one of two virus species in the genus Henipavirus (the other being Nipah virus). HeV was first isolated in 1994 from specimens obtained during an outbreak of respiratory and neurologic ...

Experimental Infection of Horses with Hendra Virus/Australia/Horse/2008/Redlands
Hendra virus (HeV) is a highly pathogenic zoonotic paramyxovirus harbored by Australian flying foxes with sporadic spillovers directly to horses. Although the mode and critical control points of HeV spillover to horses from flying foxes, and the risk for

Skin Colour in Salamanders Is Modulated by Both Epitranscriptomic Methylation and Gene Expression
ABSTRACT Animal colouration is a key trait in organismal biology, being involved in natural and sexual selection, competition, and communication. Amphibians use their highly diverse colouration in many ecological interactions, but the molecular bases of their colour variation are less well understood than in other vertebrate systems. While the genetic,

Horses, humans and Hendra virus [PDF]
Hendra virus again demonstrated its zoonotic capacity with the infection of two veterinary clinic staff (one fatally) in an outbreak in a Brisbane equine referral veterinary practice in 2008. Bats are recognised as the natural host of the virus.

A Recombinant Hendra Virus G Glycoprotein Subunit Vaccine Protects Nonhuman Primates against Hendra Virus Challenge [PDF]
ABSTRACT Hendra virus (HeV) is a zoonotic emerging virus belonging to the family Paramyxoviridae . HeV causes severe and often fatal respiratory and/or neurologic disease in both animals and humans. Currently, there are no licensed vaccines or antiviral drugs approved for human use.
