A review of rabies in Southern African wildlife: Reservoir hosts, transmission dynamics, and control implications [PDF]

Open Veterinary Journal
Rabies is a fatal zoonotic disease that affects warm-blooded vertebrates and is caused primarily by members of the Lyssavirus genus (family Rhabdoviridae, order Mononegavirales).

Toward the Development of a Pan-Lyssavirus Vaccine

Viruses
In addition to the rabies virus (RABV), 16 more lyssavirus species have been identified worldwide, causing a disease similar to RABV. Non-rabies-related human deaths have been described, but the number of cases is unknown, and the potential of such ...

Establishment and clinical validation of an in-cell-ELISA-based assay for the rapid quantification of Rabies lyssavirus neutralizing antibodies.

PLoS Neglected Tropical Diseases, 2022
Neutralizing antibodies (nAbs) prevent the entry of viruses into permissive cells. Since nAbs represent correlates of protection against the Rabies lyssavirus, the presence of sufficient nAbs indicates effective vaccination.

Susceptibilities of CNS Cells towards Rabies Virus Infection Is Linked to Cellular Innate Immune Responses

Viruses, 2022
Rabies is caused by neurotropic rabies virus (RABV), contributing to 60,000 human deaths annually. Even though rabies leads to major public health concerns worldwide, we still do not fully understand factors determining RABV tropism and why glial cells ...

Serologic Evidence of Lyssavirus Infections among Bats, the Philippines

Emerging Infectious Diseases, 2002
Active surveillance for lyssaviruses was conducted among populations of bats in the Philippines. The presence of past or current Lyssavirus infection was determined by use of direct fluorescent antibody assays on bat brains and virus neutralization ...

Lyssavirus Detection and Typing Using Pyrosequencing [PDF]

Journal of Clinical Microbiology, 2011
ABSTRACT Rabies is a fatal zoonosis caused by a nonsegmented negative-strand RNA virus, namely, rabies virus (RABV). Apart from RABV, at least 10 additional species are known as rabies-related lyssaviruses (RRVs), and some of them are responsible for occasional spillovers into humans.

A combination of two human monoclonal antibodies cures symptomatic rabies

EMBO Molecular Medicine, 2020
Rabies is a neglected disease caused by a neurotropic Lyssavirus, transmitted to humans predominantly by the bite of infected dogs. Rabies is preventable with vaccines or proper post‐exposure prophylaxis (PEP), but it still causes about 60,000 deaths ...

Molecular and serological survey of lyssaviruses in Croatian bat populations

BMC Veterinary Research, 2018
Background Rabies is the only known zoonotic disease of bat origin in Europe. The disease is caused by species belonging to the genus Lyssavirus. Five Lyssavirus species, i.e., European bat lyssavirus (EBLV)-1, EBLV-2, Bokeloh bat lyssavirus, Lleida bat ...
