Hepacivirus and the “new triade” : Further evidence for in utero transmission of equine hepacivirus to foals [PDF]

Viruses, 2019
International audienceEquine hepacivirus (EqHV), also referred to as non-primate hepacivirus (NPHV), infects horses —and dogs in some instances— and is closely related to hepatitis C virus (HCV) that has infected up to 3 % of the world’s human population,

The Detection and Phylogenetic Analysis of Bovine Hepacivirus in China [PDF]

BioMed Research International, 2018
Hepacivirus has been identified in cattle in Africa, Europe, and South America. In this survey of bovine hepacivirus (BovHepV) in 131 serum samples from Chinese cattle herds using RT-PCR, five of 131 sera were BovHepV positive, with the infection rate of

Molecular Determinants of Mouse Adaptation of Rat Hepacivirus

Journal of Virology, 2023
The lack of robust immunocompetent animal models for hepatitis C virus (HCV) impedes vaccine development and studies of immune responses. Norway rat hepacivirus (NrHV) infection in rats shares HCV-defining characteristics, including hepatotropism ...

Presence of bovine hepacivirus in Turkish cattle

Veterinary Microbiology, 2018
Hepatitis C virus (HCV), a worldwide distributed human pathogen, causes one of the most important viral infections in human being. HCV is the type species of the genus Hepacivirus (Flaviviridae) in which recently discovered animal viruses i.e.

Discovery of Jogalong virus, a novel hepacivirus identified in a Culex annulirostris (Skuse) mosquito from the Kimberley region of Western Australia.

PLoS ONE, 2020
The discovery of hepaciviruses in non-human hosts has accelerated following the advancement of high-throughput sequencing technology. Hepaciviruses have now been described in reptiles, fish, birds, and an extensive array of mammals.

The Bank Vole (Clethrionomys glareolus)—Small Animal Model for Hepacivirus Infection [PDF]

Viruses, 2021
Many people worldwide suffer from hepatitis C virus (HCV) infection, which is frequently persistent. The lack of efficient vaccines against HCV and the unavailability of or limited compliance with existing antiviral therapies is problematic for health ...

Acute and chronic infections with nonprimate hepacivirus in young horses [PDF]

Veterinary Research, 2016
The recently discovered nonprimate hepacivirus (NPHV) naturally infects horses and is the closest known homolog of hepatitis C virus to date. Within a follow-up study acute field infections were monitored in four young Thoroughbred horses until the ages ...
