Rabies and Related Lyssaviruses
2018Rabies is a significant neglected vaccine-preventable disease that is global in distribution. Multiple biologics are utilized in routine prevention and control of this zoonosis. Currently, rabies vaccines are used to interrupt a productive viral encephalitis before or after pathogen exposure in humans and animals.

Lyssaviruses represent a genus of RNA neurotropic viruses which belong to the family Rhabdoviridae and the order Mononegavirales. The chapter discusses virology and pathogenesis of Lyssaviruses. Rabies is responsible for approximately 55,000 human deaths per annum, mostly in Asia and Africa.

Rhabdoviruses: rabies and rabies-related lyssaviruses
2010Abstract The Rhabdoviridae are a large family of RNA viruses, two genera of which infect animals: the genus Lyssavirus contains rabies and rabies-related viruses that cause at least 55,000 deaths annually in Asia and Africa. The risks and problems posed by rabies and other lyssaviruses vary across the world.

Rabies and rabies-related lyssaviruses
2011Rabies virus is epidemic in most parts of the world. It can replicate in all warm-blooded animals in which it causes a devastating neurological illness, which almost invariably results in death. Rabies is a disease of animals and human infection is a ‘spillover’ event occurring most commonly following a bite from an infected dog.

Advances in virus research, 2008
Various technological developments have revitalized the approaches employed to study the disease of rabies. In particular, reverse genetics has facilitated the generation of novel viruses used to improve our understanding of the fundamental aspects of rabies virus (RABV) biology and pathogenicity and yielded novel constructs potentially useful as ...

Chapter 12 - Bats and Lyssaviruses
2011(Uploaded by Plazi for the Bat Literature Project) Numerous bat species have been identified as important reservoirs of zoonotic viral pathogens. Rabies and rabies-related viruses constitute one of the most important viral zoonoses and pose a significant threat to public health across the globe.

Emergence of Lyssaviruses in the Old World: The Case of Africa
2007(Uploaded by Plazi for the Bat Literature Project) Rabies has a long history of occurrence throughout Africa, spanning hundreds of years. At least four distinct Lyssavirus species persist throughout the continent, among carnivores, bats and other mammals.

Surveillance and pathogenicity of lyssaviruses
2018Rabies, a zoonotic disease known since ancient times, is caused by lyssaviruses and almost always fatal once clinical signs develop. Although most of Europe, including Germany, is free of terrestrial rabies, bat rabies is still present. Surveillance in Europe showed that most bat rabies cases are caused by European bat lyssavirus 1 (EBLV-1).
