Zoonotic Disease Transmission May Be Linked to Host Co-Occurrence Network Topology. [PDF]

Ann N Y Acad Sci
A global analysis of zoonotic host co‐occurrence networks identified 22 networks from five continents (A) and 87 hosts from 16 orders of mostly birds but also mammals (B) as having a high potential for disease transmission. ABSTRACT Most human pathogens are zoonotic, transmitted from vertebrate hosts to humans.

Development of broad-spectrum human monoclonal antibodies for rabies post-exposure prophylaxis [PDF]

, 2016
Currently available rabies post-exposure prophylaxis (PEP) for use in humans includes equine or human rabies immunoglobulins (RIG). The replacement of RIG with an equally or more potent and safer product is strongly encouraged due to the high costs and ...

Complete Genome Sequence of Ikoma Lyssavirus [PDF]

Journal of Virology, 2012
ABSTRACT Lyssaviruses (family Rhabdoviridae ) constitute one of the most important groups of viral zoonoses globally. All lyssaviruses cause the disease rabies, an acute progressive encephalitis for which, once symptoms occur, there is no effective cure.

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 ...

Engineering, expression in transgenic plants and characterisation of e559, a rabies virus-neutralising monoclonal antibody. [PDF]

, 2014
Rabies post-exposure prophylaxis (PEP) currently comprises administration of rabies vaccine together with rabies immunoglobulin (RIG) of either equine or human origin. In the developing world, RIG preparations are expensive, often in short supply, and of

Bat and pig IFN-induced transmembrane protein 3 restrict cell entry by influenza virus and lyssaviruses [PDF]

, 2015
IFN-induced transmembrane protein 3 (IFITM3) is a restriction factor that blocks cytosolic entry of numerous viruses that utilize acidic endosomal entry pathways. In humans and mice, IFITM3 limits influenza-induced morbidity and mortality.

Citizen science project on urban canids provides different results from camera traps but generates interest and revenue

Wildlife Biology, EarlyView.
As urbanization increases, wildlife increasingly encounters people. Coyotes Canis latrans and red foxes Vulpes vulpes are two canid species that have readily adapted to urban environments. Citizen science has emerged as a low‐cost method of collecting data on urban‐adapted species that can benefit management agencies but may provide different results ...
