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

open access: yesMicrobiology 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

open access: yesAdvances 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.

High Pathogenicity of Nipah Virus from Pteropus lylei Fruit Bats, Cambodia

open access: yesEmerging Infectious Diseases, 2020
We conducted an in-depth characterization of the Nipah virus (NiV) isolate previously obtained from a Pteropus lylei bat in Cambodia in 2003 (CSUR381). We performed full-genome sequencing and phylogenetic analyses and confirmed CSUR381 is part of the NiV-

Unveiling Novel Viral Diversity, Biogeography, and Host Networks in Wildlife Through High‐Throughput Sequencing Data Mining

open access: yesAdvanced Science, Volume 12, Issue 46, December 11, 2025.
Analysis of 57 536 high‐throughput sequencing datasets uncovers a vast, hidden world of viruses in wildlife. The researchers reveal significant geographic and host‐specific patterns of viruses, and their surprising cross‐species transmissions, such as avian flu viruses infecting goats.

Differential Features of Fusion Activation within the Paramyxoviridae

open access: yesViruses, 2020
Paramyxovirus (PMV) entry requires the coordinated action of two envelope glycoproteins, the receptor binding protein (RBP) and fusion protein (F). The sequence of events that occurs during the PMV entry process is tightly regulated.

Integrating host condition into spatiotemporal multiscale models improves virus shedding predictions

open access: yesEcography, Volume 2025, Issue 9, September 2025.
Understanding where and when pathogens occur in the environment has implications for reservoir population health and infection risk. In reservoir hosts, infection status and pathogen shedding are affected by processes interacting across different scales: from landscape features affecting host location and transmission to within‐host processes affecting

Mapping the Potential Risk of Coronavirus Spillovers in a Global Hotspot

open access: yesGlobal Change Biology, Volume 31, Issue 9, September 2025.
Bats host a vast array of viruses, including those behind SARS and COVID‐19. This study maps coronavirus spillover risk hotspots across South and Southeast Asia by combining horseshoe bat species distributions, forest fragmentation, and human population density.

Henipavirus Vaccine Development

open access: yesJournal of Bioterrorism & Biodefense, 2011
The henipaviruses, Hendra virus and Nipah virus, belong to the family Paramyxoviridae which has long been a source of highly contagious pathogens for both humans and animals. Some notable paramyxoviruses such as measles virus have spilled over from animals into humans to cause significant morbidity and mortality.

Serological and molecular analysis of henipavirus infections in synanthropic fruit bat and rodent populations in the Centre and North regions of Cameroon (2018–2020)

open access: yesBMC Veterinary Research
Background Bats and rodents have been identified as reservoirs for several highly pathogenic and zoonotic viruses including henipaviruses, a genus within the Paramyxoviridae family.
