Enzyme-Linked Immunosorbent Assay Using Henipavirus-Receptor EphrinB2 and Monoclonal Antibodies for Detecting Nipah and Hendra Viruses

Viruses
The Nipah virus (NiV) and the Hendra virus (HeV) are highly pathogenic zoonotic diseases that can cause fatal infections in humans and animals. Early detection is critical for the control of NiV and HeV infections.

Ecological and Reproductive Cycles Drive Henipavirus Seroprevalence in the African Straw‐Coloured Fruit Bat (Eidolon helvum) [PDF]

Ecology and Evolution
Bats are known to host zoonotic viruses, including henipaviruses that cause high fatality rates in humans (Nipah virus and Hendra virus). However, the determinants of zoonotic spillover are generally unknown, as the ecological and demographic drivers of ...

Pathology of Acute Henipavirus Infection in Humans and Animals [PDF]

Pathology Research International, 2011
Zoonoses as causes of human infections have been increasingly reported, and many of these are viruses that cause central nervous system infections. This paper focuses on the henipaviruses (family Paramyxoviridae, genushenipavirus) that have recently emerged to cause severe encephalitis and systemic infection in humans and animals in the Asia-Pacific ...

Discovery and Genetic Characterization of Novel Paramyxoviruses Related to the Genus Henipavirus in Crocidura Species in the Republic of Korea [PDF]

Viruses, 2021
Paramyxoviruses, negative-sense single-stranded RNA viruses, pose a critical threat to human public health. Currently, 78 species, 17 genera, and 4 subfamilies of paramyxoviruses are harbored by multiple natural reservoirs, including rodents, bats, birds,

Clinical and Pathological Manifestations of Human Henipavirus Infection

, 2012
The clinicopathological features of human Nipah virus and Hendra virus infections appear to be similar. The clinical manifestations may be mild, but if severe, includes acute encephalitic and pulmonary syndromes with a high mortality. The pathological features in human acute henipavirus infections comprise vasculopathy (vasculitis, endothelial ...

Protection Against Henipavirus Infection by Use of Recombinant Adeno-Associated Virus–Vector Vaccines [PDF]

The Journal of Infectious Diseases, 2012
Nipah virus (NiV) and Hendra virus (HeV) are closely related, recently emerged paramyxoviruses that are capable of causing considerable morbidity and mortality in several mammalian species, including humans. Henipavirus-specific vaccines are still commercially unavailable, and development of novel antiviral strategies to prevent lethal infections due ...

Mouse Models of Henipavirus Infection

, 2023
The Nipah and Hendra viruses, belonging to henipavirus genus, are recently emerged zoonotic pathogens that cause severe and often fatal, neurologic, and/or respiratory diseases in both humans and various animals. As mice represent a small animal model convenient to study viral infections and provide a well-developed experimental toolbox for analysis in
