Hendra virus: what do we know?

, 2017
Hendra virus infection is an emerging infectious disease that is not well understood. Most cases of Hendra virus infection have occurred in Queensland, with one case in a horse in NSW. Hendra virus infection has a high mortality rate in horses and humans

ZNRD2 Mediated Nucleoprotein Aggregation Impairs Respiratory Syncytial Virus Replication

Advanced Science, Volume 13, Issue 12, 27 February 2026.
During RSV infection, nucleoprotein (N) forms RNA‐bound oligomers. The host protein ZNRD2 binds to these oligomers, promoting their transition into insoluble aggregates. These aggregates simultaneously sequester functional N to restrict viral production and disrupt chaperonin assembly quality control by interfering with ZNRD2's role as an adaptor ...

A general framework for modeling pathogen transmission in co‐roosting host communities

Ecology, Volume 107, Issue 2, February 2026.
Abstract Cross‐species transmission of pathogens can be facilitated by frequent contact among wildlife. Cross‐species transmission is often driven by phylogenetic similarity between host species, but the role this plays when multiple host species co‐roost is unknown.

Antiviral therapies against Ebola and other emerging viral diseases using existing medicines that block virus entry [PDF]

, 2015
Emerging viral diseases pose a threat to the global population as intervention strategies are mainly limited to basic containment due to the lack of efficacious and approved vaccines and antiviral drugs.

Dual microRNA Screens Reveal That the Immune-Responsive miR-181 Promotes Henipavirus Entry and Cell-Cell Fusion.

PLoS Pathogens, 2016
Hendra and Nipah viruses (family Paramyxoviridae, genus Henipavirus) are bat-borne viruses that cause fatal disease in humans and a range of other mammalian species. Gaining a deeper understanding of host pathways exploited by henipaviruses for infection

Structural Insights Into the Nuclear Import of Gallid Alphaherpesvirus 1 Large Tegument Protein

MicrobiologyOpen, Volume 15, Issue 1, February 2026.
The study identifies and characterizes a bipartite nuclear localization signal within the GaAHV‐1 UL36 large tegument protein, revealing its structural interaction with importin α/β1 and confirming a conserved mechanism of nuclear import through biochemical, crystallographic, and mutational analyses.

Prevalence of Henipavirus and Rubulavirus Antibodies in Pteropid Bats, Papua New Guinea

Emerging Infectious Diseases, 2010
To determine seroprevalence of viruses in bats in Papua New Guinea, we sampled 66 bats at 3 locations. We found a seroprevalence of 55% for henipavirus (Hendra or Nipah virus) and 56% for rubulavirus (Tioman or Menangle virus).

Development of a Porcine Cell Line Stably Expressing Ephrin‐B2 for Nipah Virus Research and Diagnostic Testing

Microbiology and Immunology, Volume 70, Issue 1, Page 36-46, January 2026.
ABSTRACT Nipah virus (NiV) is a highly pathogenic zoonotic virus transmitted from bats to humans through pigs as a crucial intermediate host. NiV outbreaks pose significant public health and economic threats, especially for pig farmers. Although the World Organization for Animal Health recommends African green monkey‐derived Vero cells for NiV ...

Bat Hunting, Illness, and Health‐Seeking Behavior Among a Bat‐Hunter Community in Bangladesh: Biomedical Versus Local Views

Advances in Public Health, Volume 2026, Issue 1, 2026.
This study explores socioeconomic and health‐related aspects of a bat‐hunter community in Bangladesh, focusing on their unique cultural practices and the associated risks of bat‐borne infections. The hunter community predominantly engages in day labor and seasonal bat hunting as supplementary income.

Transboundary Animal Diseases Associated With Cross‐Border Camel Movement. A Systematic Review and Meta‐Analysis

Transboundary and Emerging Diseases, Volume 2026, Issue 1, 2026.
Transboundary animal diseases (TADs) are contagious diseases that significantly impact livestock health, public health and economic stability. In regions with frequent cross‐border trade and transhumance involving camels, particularly the Middle East and Africa, TADs pose a heightened One Health risk due to their zoonotic potential and capacity to ...
