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.

Ribonucleoprotein transport in Negative Strand RNA viruses
Biology of the Cell, Volume 115, Issue 1, January 2023., 2023 The genome replication of Negative‐sense, single‐stranded RNA viruses most‐often segregate in membrane‐less environments called inclusion bodies (IBs). These “organelles” usually locate far from the cell surface from where new virions are released. Here, for each viral family, we discuss how the genome progeny is transported from the IBs to reach the ...

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 ...

Trends in Bacterial Pathogens of Bats: Global Distribution and Knowledge Gaps
Transboundary and Emerging Diseases, Volume 2023, Issue 1, 2023., 2023 Bats have received considerable recent attention for infectious disease research because of their potential to host and transmit viruses, including Ebola, Hendra, Nipah, and multiple coronaviruses. These pathogens are occasionally transmitted from bats to wildlife, livestock, and to humans, directly or through other bridging (intermediate) hosts.

Emerging Infectious Diseases, 2023 Spillovers of Nipah virus (NiV) from Pteropus bats to humans occurs frequently in Bangladesh, but the risk for spillover into other animals is poorly understood. We detected NiV antibodies in cattle, dogs, and cats from 6 sites where spillover human NiV

Viruses, 2021 Pandemics are a consequence of a series of processes that span scales from viral biology at 10−9 m to global transmission at 106 m. The pathogen passes from one host species to another through a sequence of events that starts with an infected reservoir ...

Henipavirus RNA in African bats. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2009 BackgroundHenipaviruses (Hendra and Nipah virus) are highly pathogenic members of the family Paramyxoviridae. Fruit-eating bats of the Pteropus genus have been suggested as their natural reservoir.

Animal Models for Henipavirus Research
Viruses, 2023 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 ...
