Arenavirus Diversity and Phylogeography of Mastomys natalensis Rodents, Nigeria [PDF]

Emerging Infectious Diseases, 2016
Mastomys natalensis rodents are natural hosts for Lassa virus (LASV). Detection of LASV in 2 mitochondrial phylogroups of the rodent near the Niger and Benue Rivers in Nigeria underlines the potential for LASV emergence in fresh phylogroups of this ...

Host competence of African rodents Arvicanthis neumanni, A. niloticus and Mastomys natalensis for Leishmania major [PDF]

International Journal for Parasitology: Parasites and Wildlife, 2019
Cutaneous leishmaniasis caused by Leishmania major is a typical zoonosis circulating in rodents. In Sub-Saharan Africa the reservoirs remain to be identified, although L.

Trichobezoars in praomys (mastomys) natalensis [PDF]

, 2019
We have in a rat model studied the role of gastric neuroendocrine cells in the regulation of gastric function and growth and given indication for an important role of these cells in physiology and human carcinogenesis. Because of the high incidence of spontaneous tumors in the glandular stomach of mastomys (Praomys (mastomys) natalensis), we wanted to ...

Mastomys natalensis and Lassa Fever, West Africa

Emerging Infectious Diseases, 2006
PCR screening of 1,482 murid rodents from 13 genera caught in 18 different localities of Guinea, West Africa, showed Lassa virus infection only in molecularly typed Mastomys natalensis.

Luna Virus and Helminths in Wild Mastomys natalensis in Two Contrasting Habitats in Zambia: Risk Factors and Evidence of Virus Dissemination in Semen [PDF]

Pathogens, 2022
Transmission dynamics and the maintenance of mammarenaviruses in nature are poorly understood. Using metagenomic next-generation sequencing (mNGS) and RT-PCR, we investigated the presence of mammarenaviruses and co-infecting helminths in various tissues ...

O Mastomys natalensis como modelo alternativo nos estudos da esquistossomose mansoni experimental [PDF]

Revista do Instituto de Medicina Tropical de São Paulo, 1984
Foram estudados aspectos da infecção e da imunidade experimentais em um roedor — o Mastomys natalensis — inoculado com a cepa LE (Belo Horizonte) do Schistosoma mansoni, comparando os resultados com os do camundongo albino, animal tido como melhor modelo

Efficiency of anthelmintic treatment and its effect on microparasite dynamics in wild Mastomys natalensis [PDF]

International Journal for Parasitology: Parasites and Wildlife
Co-infections between helminths and microparasites can modulate the host immune response and alter disease dynamics, with potential implications for public health. However, identifying causal relationships in natural populations is challenging due to the

Host competence of the African rodents Arvicanthis neumanni, A. niloticus and Mastomys natalensis for Leishmania donovani from Ethiopia and L. (Mundinia) sp. from Ghana [PDF]

International Journal for Parasitology: Parasites and Wildlife, 2020
Visceral leishmaniasis caused by Leishmania donovani is regarded as mostly anthroponotic, but a role for animal reservoir hosts in transmission has been suggested in East Africa.

Mastomys natalensis and Mastomys coucha: identification, habitat preferences and population genetics [PDF]

, 2010
M.Sc. Two species of multimammate mice occur in South Africa, namely Mastomys natalensis and M. coucha. These species, both reservoirs for different and equally important disease pathogens, are morphologically identical with variations described in chromosome number, sperm morphology, pheromones, ultrasound and allozyme and isozyme markers.
