Vertebrate Host Susceptibility to Heartland Virus [PDF]
Heartland virus (HRTV) is a recently described phlebovirus initially isolated in 2009 from 2 humans who had leukopenia and thrombocytopenia. Serologic assessment of domestic and wild animal populations near the residence of 1 of these persons showed high

Pathological and virological findings of type I interferon receptor knockout mice upon experimental infection with Heartland virus [PDF]
Heartland virus (HRTV) causes generalized symptoms, severe shock, and multiple organ failure. We previously reported that interferon-α/β receptor knockout (IFNAR-/-) mice infected intraperitoneally with 1 × 107 tissue culture-infective dose (TCID50) of ...

Heartland Virus Epidemiology, Vector Association, and Disease Potential
First identified in two Missouri farmers exhibiting low white-blood-cell and platelet counts in 2009, Heartland virus (HRTV) is genetically closely related to severe fever with thrombocytopenia syndrome virus (SFTSV), a tick-borne phlebovirus producing ...

The Cap-Snatching SFTSV Endonuclease Domain Is an Antiviral Target [PDF]
Summary: Severe fever with thrombocytopenia syndrome virus (SFTSV) is a tick-borne virus with 12%–30% case mortality rates and is related to the Heartland virus (HRTV) identified in the United States.

Dermatological manifestations of tick-borne viral infections found in the United States [PDF]
Tick-borne diseases (TBDs) are bacterial, viral, and parasitic diseases transmitted by ticks. Viral TBDs have increased in prevalence over the last decade with many new pathogenic viruses being discovered.

Heartland Virus Neutralizing Antibodies in Vertebrate Wildlife, United States, 2009–2014
Since its discovery in 2009, the tickborne Heartland virus (HRTV) has caused human illness in Missouri, Oklahoma, and Tennessee USA. To better assess the geographic distribution of HRTV, we used wildlife serology as an indicator.
