Evolution of Nipah Virus Infection: Past, Present, and Future Considerations
Tropical Medicine and Infectious Disease, 2021 Nipah virus (NiV) is a zoonotic paramyxovirus of the Henipavirus genus first identified in Malaysia in 1998. Henipaviruses have bat reservoir hosts and have been isolated from fruit bats found across Oceania, Asia, and Africa.

Development of a Porcine Cell Line Stably Expressing Ephrin-B2 for Nipah Virus Research and Diagnostic Testing. [PDF]
Microbiol ImmunolABSTRACT 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 ...

Cells, 2020 Nipah and Hendra viruses are highly pathogenic, zoonotic henipaviruses that encode proteins that inhibit the host’s innate immune response. The W protein is one of four products encoded from the P gene and binds a number of host proteins to regulate ...

A conserved motif in Henipavirus P/V/W proteins drives the fibrillation of the W protein from Hendra virus. [PDF]
Protein SciAbstract The Hendra (HeV) and Nipah (NiV) viruses are high‐priority, biosafety level‐4 pathogens that cause fatal neurological and respiratory disease. Their P gene encodes not only the P protein, an essential polymerase cofactor, but also the virulence factors V and W.

A Survey of Henipavirus Tropism—Our Current Understanding from a Species/Organ and Cellular Level
Viruses, 2023 Henipaviruses are single-stranded RNA viruses that have been shown to be virulent in several species, including humans, pigs, horses, and rodents. Isolated nearly 30 years ago, these viruses have been shown to be of particular concern to public health ...

Feline morbillivirus infection associated with fatal encephalitis in a Bengal cat
Journal of Veterinary Internal Medicine, Volume 37, Issue 6, Page 2510-2513, November/December 2023., 2023 Abstract Feline morbillivirus (FeMV) is a recently discovered morbillivirus of the family Paramyxoviridae, which include several highly contagious viruses with zoonotic potential. In this case report we describe the detection of FeMV in archived brain tissue of a 2‐month‐old Bengal cat with nonsuppurative encephalitis from the year 2011 in Switzerland ...

Evidence of henipavirus infection in West African fruit bats. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2008 Henipaviruses are emerging RNA viruses of fruit bat origin that can cause fatal encephalitis in man. Ghanaian fruit bats (megachiroptera) were tested for antibodies to henipaviruses. Using a Luminex multiplexed microsphere assay, antibodies were detected

Henipaviruses and lyssaviruses target nucleolar treacle protein and regulate ribosomal RNA synthesis
Traffic, Volume 24, Issue 3, Page 146-157, March 2023., 2023 Synopsis statement: The nucleolus is a common target of RNA viruses, but the roles and significance of this remain unresolved. Previously we found the Hendra virus (a Henipavirus) M protein targets a subnucleolar compartment and interacts with Treacle, impairing ribosome biogenesis.
