Drivers and Distribution of Henipavirus-Induced Syncytia: What Do We Know?
Viruses, 2021 Syncytium formation, i.e., cell–cell fusion resulting in the formation of multinucleated cells, is a hallmark of infection by paramyxoviruses and other pathogenic viruses. This natural mechanism has historically been a diagnostic marker for paramyxovirus

Host gene expression profiles in ferrets infected with genetically distinct henipavirus strains. [PDF]
PLoS Neglected Tropical Diseases, 2018 Henipavirus infection causes severe respiratory and neurological disease in humans that can be fatal. To characterize the pathogenic mechanisms of henipavirus infection in vivo, we performed experimental infections in ferrets followed by genome-wide gene

Henipavirus RNA in African Bats
PLoS ONE, 2009 Les hénipavirus (virus Hendra et Nipah) sont des membres hautement pathogènes de la famille des Paramyxoviridae. Les chauves-souris mangeuses de fruits du genre Pteropus ont été suggérées comme leur réservoir naturel. Des infections à Henipavirus humain ont été signalées dans une région s'étendant de l'Australie à travers la Malaisie jusqu'au ...

Henipavirus-induced neuropathogenesis in mice
Virology, 2023 Hendra virus (HeV) and Nipah virus (NiV) are henipaviruses that can cause fatal encephalitis in humans. Many animal models have been used to study henipavirus pathogenesis. In the mouse, HeV infection has previously shown that intranasal challenge can lead to neurological infection, however mice similarly challenged with NiV show no evidence of virus ...

Seasonal shedding patterns of diverse henipavirus-related paramyxoviruses in Egyptian rousette bats
Scientific Reports, 2021 Bat-borne viruses in the Henipavirus genus have been associated with zoonotic diseases of high morbidity and mortality in Asia and Australia. In Africa, the Egyptian rousette bat species (Rousettus aegyptiacus) is an important viral host in which ...
