Development of Human Monoclonal Antibodies With Broad Reactivity for Rabies Postexposure Prophylaxis
ABSTRACT Rabies is an acute lethal disease causing by the neurotropic virus rabies virus (RABV). Rabies immune globulin (RIG) as an indispensable component of rabies postexposure prophylaxis (PEP) always faces with great challenges in terms of costs, stability and safety.

Isolation, antigenicity and immunogenicity of Lleida bat lyssavirus
The lyssaviruses are an important group of viruses that cause a fatal encephalitis termed rabies. The prototypic lyssavirus, rabies virus, is predicted to cause more than 60 000 human fatalities annually. The burden of disease for the other lyssaviruses is undefined. The original reports for the recently described highly divergent Lleida bat lyssavirus

Host community structure can shape pathogen outbreak dynamics through a phylogenetic dilution effect
Read the free Plain Language Summary for this article on the Journal blog. Abstract Biodiversity loss and anthropogenic modifications to species communities are impacting the frequency and magnitude of disease emergence events. These changes may be related through mechanisms in which biodiversity either increases (amplifies) or decreases (dilutes ...

Climate change linked to vampire bat expansion and rabies virus spillover
Bat‐borne pathogens are a threat to global health and in recent history have had major impacts on human morbidity and mortality. Examples include diseases such as rabies, Nipah virus encephalitis, and severe acute respiratory syndrome (SARS). Climate change may exacerbate the emergence of bat‐borne pathogens by affecting the ecology of bats in tropical

Defining the risk of human exposure to Australian bat lyssavirus through potential non-bat animal infection [PDF]
Human infection with Australian bat lyssavirus (ABLV) was first reported in November 1996, six months after the first identification of the virus in a flying fox in May 1996.

Nucleocytoplasmic shuttling of the rabies virus P protein requires a nuclear localization signal and a CRM1-dependent nuclear export signal [PDF]
Rabies virus P protein is a co-factor of the viral RNA polymerase. It has been shown previously that P mRNA directs the synthesis of four N-terminally truncated P products P2, P3, P4, and P5 due to translational initiation by a leaky scanning mechanism ...

Rabies control in Ghana: Stakeholders interventions, challenges and opportunities
Abstract Background Rabies remains a significant public health issue in Ghana, predominantly affecting rural communities with limited access to health care and veterinary services. The disease is primarily transmitted through bites from infected domestic dogs and leads to many deaths worldwide each year.
