Infection of type I interferon receptor-deficient mice with various old world arenaviruses: a model for studying virulence and host species barriers.

PLoS ONE, 2013
Lassa virus causes hemorrhagic Lassa fever in humans, while the related Old World arenaviruses Mopeia, Morogoro, and Mobala are supposedly apathogenic to humans and cause only inapparent infection in non-human primates.

We describe a strain of Lassa virus representing a putative new lineage that was isolated from a cluster of human infections with an epidemiologic link to Togo. This finding extends the known range of Lassa virus to Togo.2018UL1 TR000454/TR/NCATS NIH HHS/

Emerging Challenges and Opportunities in Infectious Disease Epidemiology. [PDF]

, 2019
Much of the intellectual tradition of modern epidemiology stems from efforts to understand and combat chronic diseases persisting through the 20th century epidemiologic transition of countries such as the United States and United Kingdom.

Mathematical Modelling and Analysis of Lassa fever Dynamics with Environmental Transmission and Reinfection

Franklin Open
A deterministic model with a variable human population, rodent population, and Lassa virus in the environment is presented and rigorously analyzed.The model analysis showed a process known as backward bifurcation where the Lassa fever-free equilibrium ...

Innate and adaptive immune control of genetically engineered live-attenuated arenavirus vaccine prototypes [PDF]

, 2017
Arenaviruses such as Lassa virus (LASV) cause significant morbidity and mortality in endemic areas. Using a glycoprotein (GP) exchange strategy, we have recently developed live-attenuated arenavirus vaccine prototypes (rLCMV/VSVG) based on lymphocytic ...
