Henipavirus susceptibility to environmental variables [PDF]
(Uploaded by Plazi for the Bat Literature Project) The routes of henipavirus transmission between hosts are poorly understood. The purpose of this study was to measure the persistence of henipaviruses under various environmental conditions and thereby gain an insight into likely mechanisms of transmission. Henipaviruses survived for more than 4 days at

Animal Models for Henipavirus Research
Hendra virus (HeV) and Nipah virus (NiV) are zoonotic paramyxoviruses in the genus Henipavirus (HNV) that emerged nearly thirty years ago. Outbreaks of HeV and NiV have led to severe respiratory disease and encephalitis in humans and animals characterized by a high mortality rate.

Defective interfering particles (DIs) contain a considerably smaller genome than the parental virus but retain replication competency. As DIs can directly or indirectly alter propagation kinetics of the parental virus, they offer a novel approach to ...

Targeted Strategies for Henipavirus Therapeutics [PDF]
Hendra and Nipah viruses are related emergent paramyxoviruses that infect and cause disease in animals and humans. Disease manifests as a generalized vasculitis affecting multiple organs, but is the most severe in the respiratory and central nervous systems.

Experimental Evidence of Intrinsic Disorder and Amyloid Formation by the Henipavirus W Proteins
International audienceHenipaviruses are severe human pathogens within the Paramyxoviridae family. Beyond the P protein, the Henipavirus P gene also encodes the V and W proteins which share with P their N-terminal, intrinsically disordered domain (NTD ...

Identifying Suspect Bat Reservoirs of Emerging Infections
Bats host a number of pathogens that cause severe disease and onward transmission in humans and domestic animals. Some of these pathogens, including henipaviruses and filoviruses, are considered a concern for future pandemics.

Henipavirus pathogenesis in human respiratory epithelial cells [PDF]
Hendra virus (HeV) and Nipah virus (NiV) are deadly zoonotic viruses for which no vaccines or therapeutics are licensed for human use. Henipavirus infection causes severe respiratory illness and encephalitis.

Henipavirus-induced neuropathogenesis in mice
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 ...
