Application of multiplex realtime PCR detection for hemorrhagic fever syndrome viruses
Journal of Infection and Public Health, 2023 Background: Multiplex real-time PCR is a quick and cost effective method for detection of various gene simultaneously. HFSV (Hemorrhagic Fever Syndrome Virus) is a newly emerging infectious disease because of globalization and climate change. We tried to

Measurement of Antibodies to Machupo Virus by the Indirect Fluorescent Technique
Experimental Biology and Medicine, 1973 Bolivian hemorrhagic fever (BHF) was first recognized in the Province of Beni, Bolivia, in 1959 (1), and cases have continued to occur since then. Recent outbreaks have confirmed the fact that clinical manifestations can be quite nonspecific. Laboratory diagnosis is handicapped by a scarcity of facilities in the endemic region, as well as by the hazard

Differential Immune Responses to Hemorrhagic Fever-Causing Arenaviruses
Vaccines, 2019 The family Arenaviridae contains several pathogens of major clinical importance. The Old World (OW) arenavirus Lassa virus is endemic in West Africa and is estimated to cause up to 300,000 infections each year.

A single mutation (V64G) within the RING Domain of Z attenuates Junin virus.
PLoS Neglected Tropical Diseases, 2020 Junin virus (JUNV) is a New World arenavirus that is the causative agent of Argentine hemorrhagic fever (AHF). Candid#1 (Can) is a live-attenuated vaccine strain of JUNV that since its introduction has resulted in a marked decrease in AHF incidence ...

Antibodies to the Glycoprotein GP2 Subunit Cross-React between Old and New World Arenaviruses
mSphere, 2018 Arenaviruses pose a major public health threat and cause numerous infections in humans each year. Although most viruses belonging to this family do not cause disease in humans, some arenaviruses, such as Lassa virus and Machupo virus, are the etiological

Vaccines for emerging pathogens: prospects for licensure
Clinical &Experimental Immunology, Volume 198, Issue 2, Page 170-183, November 2019., 2019 This review covers the global incidence of disease caused by emerging and re‐emerging pathogens and the availability of vaccines for these. It considers the hurdles to be overcome to achieve comprehensive vaccine coverage and reviews the regulatory mechanisms which may be available to seek approval for human use in emergency situations.

The HIV glycan shield as a target for broadly neutralizing antibodies
The FEBS Journal, Volume 282, Issue 24, Page 4679-4691, December 2015., 2015 The HIV envelope glycoprotein, Env, is extensively decorated with host‐derived N‐linked glycans. These glycans not only shield conserved protein regions from antibody recognition but, critically, act as epitopes for some of the most broad and potent neutralizing antibodies.

Animal Models for the Study of Rodent‐Borne Hemorrhagic Fever Viruses: Arenaviruses and Hantaviruses
BioMed Research International, Volume 2015, Issue 1, 2015., 2015 Human pathogenic hantaviruses and arenaviruses are maintained in nature by persistent infection of rodent carrier populations. Several members of these virus groups can cause significant disease in humans that is generically termed viral hemorrhagic fever (HF) and is characterized as a febrile illness with an increased propensity to cause acute ...
