Journal of Immunology Research, Volume 2015, Issue 1, 2015., 2015 Ebola virus is responsible for causing severe hemorrhagic fevers, with case fatality rates of up to 90%. Currently, no antiviral or vaccine is licensed against Ebola virus. A phosphatidylserine‐targeting antibody (PGN401, bavituximab) has previously been shown to have broad‐spectrum antiviral activity.

Land Use Change and Infectious Disease Emergence
Reviews of Geophysics, Volume 63, Issue 2, June 2025.Abstract Major infectious diseases threatening human health are transmitted to people from animals or by arthropod vectors such as insects. In recent decades, disease outbreaks have become more common, especially in tropical regions, including new and emerging infections that were previously undetected or unknown. Even though there is growing awareness

, 2012 Les virus Ebola (EBOV) et Marburg (MARV) causent des fièvres hémorragiques chez les primates, y compris l’homme. Le taux de létalité peut atteindre 90% et il n’existe ni vaccin ni traitement contre ces virus. En raison de leurs caractéristiques moléculaires communes, EBOV et MARV sont regroupés au sein de la famille des Filoviridae.

Local Mutational Pressures in Genomes of Zaire Ebolavirus and Marburg Virus
Advances in Bioinformatics, Volume 2015, Issue 1, 2015., 2015 Heterogeneities in nucleotide content distribution along the length of Zaire ebolavirus and Marburg virus genomes have been analyzed. Results showed that there is asymmetric mutational A‐pressure in the majority of Zaire ebolavirus genes; there is mutational AC‐pressure in the coding region of the matrix protein VP40, probably, caused by its high ...

BioMed Research International, Volume 2014, Issue 1, 2014., 2014 For a given West African country, we constructed a model describing the spread of the deathly disease called Ebola hemorrhagic fever. The model was first constructed using the classical derivative and then converted to the generalized version using the beta‐derivative.

Presence and persistence of Ebola or Marburg virus in patients and survivors: A rapid systematic review [PDF]
, 2016 Background: The 2013-15 Ebola outbreak was unprecedented due to sustainedtransmission within urban environments and thousands of survivors. In 2014 the World Health Organization stated that there was insufficient evidence to give definitive guidance ...
