Genetic and antigenic characterization of Brazilian SRLV strains: Natural small ruminant interspecies transmission from mixed herds.

Infection, Genetics and Evolution, 2022
Cross-species transmission events and mixed infection of small ruminant lentiviruses (SRLVs) were studied in seven goats and two sheep from three small ruminant mixed flocks from Northeast and Southeast Brazil. Genetic and antigenic analyses with gag/env

Loss of hepatic SMLR1 causes hepatosteatosis and protects against atherosclerosis due to decreased hepatic VLDL secretion

Hepatology, EarlyView., 2022
The role of SMLR1 in lipid metabolism (high fat + cholesterol diet in mice) Abstract Background and Aims The assembly and secretion of VLDL from the liver, a pathway that affects hepatic and plasma lipids, remains incompletely understood. We set out to identify players in the VLDL biogenesis pathway by identifying genes that are co‐expressed with the ...

Influenza: interspecies transmission and emergence of new pandemics [PDF]

FEMS Immunology & Medical Microbiology, 1997
Influenza is a well-known yearly threat, so why is it considered to be an emerging disease? It is because the virus evolves so rapidly that every year new viruses emerge, and every century three to four emergent strains are ‘new’ enough to cause pandemics. Historically, pandemics have been both unpredictable and devastating. As we learn more about how

The ecology and adaptive evolution of influenza A interspecies transmission [PDF]

Influenza and Other Respiratory Viruses, 2016
Since 2013, there have been several alarming influenza‐related events; the spread of highly pathogenic avian influenza H5 viruses into North America, the detection of H10N8 and H5N6 zoonotic infections, the ongoing H7N9 infections in China and the continued zoonosis of H5N1 viruses in parts of Asia and the Middle East.

Modeling transmission dynamics of rabies in Nepal

Infectious Disease Modelling, 2021
Even though vaccines against rabies are available, rabies still remains a burden killing a significant number of humans as well as domestic and wild animals in many parts of the world, including Nepal.

Diversity of Parvovirus 4–like Viruses in Humans, Chimpanzees, and Monkeys in Hunter–Prey Relationships

Emerging Infectious Diseases, 2012
During 2010–2011, we investigated interspecies transmission of partetraviruses between predators (humans and chimpanzees) and their prey (colobus monkeys) in Côte d’Ivoire.

Avian-to-Human Receptor-Binding Adaptation of Avian H7N9 Influenza Virus Hemagglutinin

Cell Reports, 2019
Summary: Since 2013, H7N9 avian influenza viruses (AIVs) have caused more than 1,600 human infections, posing a threat to public health. An emerging concern is whether H7N9 AIVs will cause pandemics among humans. Molecular analysis of hemagglutinin (HA),

Genomic characterization of an African G4P[6] human rotavirus strain identified in a diarrheic child in Kenya: Evidence for porcine-to-human interspecies transmission and reassortment.

Infection, Genetics and Evolution, 2021
Human rotavirus strains having the unconventional G4P[6] genotype have been sporadically identified in diarrheic patients in different parts of the world.

Molecular constraints to interspecies transmission of viral pathogens [PDF]

Nature Medicine, 2004
The successful replication of a viral pathogen in a host is a complex process involving many interactions. These interactions develop from the coevolution of pathogen and host and often lead to a species specificity of the virus that can make interspecies transmissions difficult.

Human rotavirus infection. Strategies for the vaccinal prevention

Вопросы вирусологии, 2016
Rotavirus was first isolated in 1973 in Australia from children with diarrhea. Hundreds of thousands of children die annually in developing countries from this virus with the mortality peaks in the most impoverished among them.
