Effects of mammarenavirus infection (Wēnzhōu virus) on the morphology of Rattus exulans

Infection, Genetics and Evolution, 2018
The circulation of mammarenaviruses in rodent populations of the Mekong region has recently been established, with a genetic variant of Wēnzhōu virus, Cardamones virus, detected in two Rattus species. This study tests the potential teratogenic effects of Wēnzhōu infection on the development of a Murid rodent, Rattus exulans.

Proteomics Computational Analyses Suggest that the Antennavirus Glycoprotein Complex Includes a Class I Viral Fusion Protein (α-Penetrene) with an Internal Zinc-Binding Domain and a Stable Signal Peptide

Viruses, 2019
A metatranscriptomic study of RNA viruses in cold-blooded vertebrates identified two related viruses from frogfish (Antennarius striatus) that represent a new genus Antennavirus in the family Arenaviridae (Order: Bunyavirales).

Subspecific rodent taxa as the relevant host taxonomic level for mammarenavirus host specificity

Virology, 2023
Mastomys natalensis-borne mammarenaviruses appear specific to subspecific M. natalensis taxa rather than to the whole species. Yet mammarenaviruses carried by M. natalensis are known to spill over and jump hosts in northern sub-Saharan Africa. Phylogeographic studies increasingly show that, like M.

Dynamics of Acute Infection with Mammarenavirus Wenzhouense in Rattus norvegicus

Viruses
While Mammarenavirus Wenzhouense (WENV) is broadly distributed across Asia, the dynamics of WENV infection remain unclear. In this study, a field-derived strain of WENV was used to inoculate Sprague Dawley (SD) rats by intramuscular injection, and the process of viral infection was observed over the course of 28 d.

Highly Diverse Arenaviruses in Neotropical Bats, Brazil

Emerging Infectious Diseases, 2022
We detected arenavirus RNA in 1.6% of 1,047 bats in Brazil that were sampled during 2007–2011. We identified Tacaribe virus in 2 Artibeus sp. bats and a new arenavirus species in Carollia perspicillata bats that we named Tietê mammarenavirus.

Potential of Viruses as Environmental Etiological Factors for Non-Syndromic Orofacial Clefts

Viruses
In this study, we analyzed the potential of viral infections in the species Homo sapiens as environmental causes of orofacial clefts (OFCs). A scoring system was adapted for qualitatively assessing the potential of viruses to cause cleft lip and/or ...

Novel Oliveros-like Clade C Mammarenaviruses from Rodents in Argentina, 1990–2020

Viruses
Following an Argentine Hemorrhagic Fever (AHF) outbreak in the early 1990s, a rodent survey for Junín virus, a New World Clade B arenavirus, in endemic areas of Argentina was conducted.

Autophagy Modulation in Mammarenavirus Infection [PDF]

Journal of Immunological Sciences, 2020
Mammarenavirus genus groups viruses causing human haemorrhagic diseases, including the New World (NW) Junín virus (JUNV), and the Old World (OW) viruses Lassa (LASV), among others. The high mortality and morbidity rates associated to pathogenic mammarenaviruses, the absence of vaccines and the constant threat of new emerging species, make these viruses

Prolyl tRNA Synthetase Is Required for Mammarenavirus Multiplication. [PDF]

Viruses
Several mammarenaviruses (MaAv), chiefly Lassa virus (LASV) in Western Africa and Junin virus (JUNV) in the Argentinean Pampas, cause severe disease in humans and pose important public health problems in their endemic regions. In addition, the globally distributed MaAv lymphocytic choriomeningitis virus (LCMV) is an underrecognized human pathogen of ...
