Henipaviruses: Gaps in the Knowledge of Emergence
EcoHealth, 2004(Uploaded by Plazi for the Bat Literature Project) Over the past 10 years many ''new'' viruses have been identified in Australia and the Asian region. The viruses have been isolated from, and/or identified in, a range of animals; some of these viruses are of veterinary and medical importance while others are new threats to biodiversity.

Bats and Emerging Zoonoses: Henipaviruses and SARS
Zoonoses and Public Health, 2009SummaryNearly 75% of all emerging infectious diseases (EIDs) that impact or threaten human health are zoonotic. The majority have spilled from wildlife reservoirs, either directly to humans or via domestic animals. The emergence of many can be attributed to predisposing factors such as global travel, trade, agricultural expansion, deforestation/habitat

In Vitro Antiviral Screening for Henipaviruses at BSL4
2023In vitro screening for antivirals is an essential step in the development of effective treatments against new and emerging pathogens. Here, we describe a simple, cell-based screening assay for evaluating antiviral effectiveness against Hendra and Nipah live virus infection under BSL4 conditions.

Utilizing Recombinant Reporter Henipaviruses to Conduct Antiviral Screening
2023Spillovers of Nipah virus (NiV) from its pteropid bat reservoir into the human population continue to cause near-annual outbreaks of fatal encephalitis and respiratory disease in Bangladesh and India since its emergence in Malaysia over 20Â years ago.

Design and evaluation of consensus PCR assays for henipaviruses
Journal of Virological Methods, 2009Henipaviruses were first discovered in the 1990s, and their potential threat to public health is of increasing concern with increasing knowledge. Old-world fruit bats are the reservoir hosts for these viruses, and spill-over events cause lethal infections in a wide range of mammalian species, including humans. In anticipation of these spill-over events,

Henipaviruses are Not Yet History
Future Virology, 2015ABSTRACT  Within the Paramyxoviridae family, Henipaviruses are the deadliest human pathogens. Nipah and Hendra viruses comprise the genus Henipavirus, zoonotic pathogens which cause encephalitis and respiratory disease in humans with mortality rates that can exceed 70%.

Henipaviruses: New Threats for Southeast Asia and Australia
2006Hendra virus was first encountered in Brisbane, Australia in 1994 and subsequently in other more northerly parts of Queensland. Nipah virus was first encountered in northern Malaysia in 1998 but has subsequently been found in Singapore, Bangladesh, Cambodia, Thailand, Indonesia and India. It has been established that bats, particularly Pteropus species

Emerging encephalitogenic viruses: lyssaviruses and henipaviruses transmitted by frugivorous bats
2004Three newly recognized encephalitogenic zoonotic viruses spread from fruit bats of the genus Pteropus (order Chiroptera, suborder Megachiroptera) have been recognised over the past decade. These are: Hendra virus, formerly named equine morbillivirus, which was responsible for an outbreak of disease in horses and humans in Brisbane, Australia, in 1994 ...
