Isolation of three novel rat and mouse papillomaviruses and their genomic characterization. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
Despite a growing knowledge about the biological diversity of papillomaviruses (PV), only little is known about non-human PV in general and about PV mice models in particular.

Sympatric Occurrence of 3 Arenaviruses, Tanzania

open access: yesEmerging Infectious Diseases, 2010
To determine the specificity of Morogoro virus for its reservoir host, we studied its host range and genetic diversity in Tanzania. We found that 2 rodent species other than Mastomys natalensis mice carry arenaviruses. Analysis of 340 nt of the viral RNA

Mopeia Virus–related Arenavirus in Natal Multimammate Mice, Morogoro, Tanzania

open access: yesEmerging Infectious Diseases, 2009
A serosurvey involving 2,520 small mammals from Tanzania identified a hot spot of arenavirus circulation in Morogoro. Molecular screening detected a new arenavirus in Natal multimammate mice (Mastomys natalensis), Morogoro virus, related to Mopeia virus.

Rodent control to fight Lassa fever: Evaluation and lessons learned from a 4-year study in Upper Guinea. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS Neglected Tropical Diseases, 2018
Lassa fever is a viral haemorrhagic fever caused by an arenavirus. The disease is endemic in West African countries, including Guinea. The rodents Mastomys natalensis and Mastomys erythroleucus have been identified as Lassa virus reservoirs in Guinea. In

MHC-I alleles mediate clearance and antibody response to the zoonotic Lassa virus in Mastomys rodent reservoirs.

open access: yesPLoS Neglected Tropical Diseases
West African Mastomys rodents are the primary reservoir of the zoonotic Lassa virus (LASV). The virus causes haemorrhagic Lassa fever and considerable mortality in humans. To date, the role of Mastomys immunogenetics in resistance to, and persistence of,

Two Novel Arenaviruses Detected in Pygmy Mice, Ghana

open access: yesEmerging Infectious Diseases, 2013
Two arenaviruses were detected in pygmy mice (Mus spp.) by screening 764 small mammals in Ghana. The Natal multimammate mouse (Mastomys natalensis), the known Lassa virus reservoir, was the dominant indoor rodent species in 4 of 10 sites, and accounted ...
