Murine cytomegalovirus genomic material in marrow cells; relation to altered leukocyte counts during sublethal infection of mice [PDF]

, 1987
To investigate infection of hematopoietic cells by murine cytomegalovirus (MCMV), we used in situ hybridization to detect MCMV genomic material in marrow cells during sublethal infection of three-week-old mice.

Immune Responses and Lassa Virus Infection [PDF]

Viruses, 2012
Lassa fever is a hemorrhagic fever endemic to West Africa and caused by Lassa virus, an Old World arenavirus. It may be fatal, but most patients recover from acute disease and some experience asymptomatic infection. The immune mechanisms associated with these different outcomes have not yet been fully elucidated, but considerable progress has recently ...

Can clinical features predict Lassa virus positivity and outcome in children suspected of Lassa virus disease in a tertiary hospital, Southeast Nigeria?

Nigerian Journal of Paediatrics, 2021
Background: Lassa virus disease (LVD) is of public health concern in endemic countries of Africa. Majority of Lassa virus infections are asymptomatic while symptomatic cases can mimic other infections.

Selection and Characterization of Single-Domain Antibodies for Detection of Lassa Nucleoprotein

Antibodies, 2020
Lassa virus is the etiologic agent of Lassa fever, an acute and often fatal illness endemic to West Africa. It is important to develop new reagents applicable either for the specific diagnosis or as improved therapeutics for the treatment of Lassa fever.

Inhibition of Lassa virus glycoprotein cleavage and multicycle replication by site 1 protease-adapted alpha(1)-antitrypsin variants. [PDF]

PLoS Neglected Tropical Diseases, 2009
Proteolytic processing of the Lassa virus envelope glycoprotein precursor GP-C by the host proprotein convertase site 1 protease (S1P) is a prerequisite for the incorporation of the subunits GP-1 and GP-2 into viral particles and, hence, essential for ...

The origin and prevention of pandemics. [PDF]

, 2010
Despite the fact that most emerging diseases stem from the transmission of pathogenic agents from animals to humans, the factors that mediate this process are still ill defined.

Molecular confirmation and phylogeny of Lassa fever virus in Benin Republic 2014–2016

African Journal of Laboratory Medicine, 2019
Background: The changing epidemiology of the Lassa virus from endemic areas to other parts of West Africa has been reported. However, there have been no documented Lassa fever transmission chains in the Benin Republic.
