Seroprevalence of mumps in The Netherlands: dynamics over a decade with high vaccination coverage and recent outbreaks. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2013 Here we present mumps virus specific antibody levels in a large cross-sectional population-based serosurveillance study performed in the Netherlands in 2006/2007 (n = 7900).

Establishing a small animal model for evaluating protective immunity against mumps virus. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2017 Although mumps vaccines have been used for several decades, protective immune correlates have not been defined. Recently, mumps outbreaks have occurred in vaccinated populations.

Recombinant mumps virus as a cancer therapeutic agent
Molecular Therapy: Oncolytics, 2016 Mumps virus belongs to the family of Paramyxoviridae and has the potential to be an oncolytic agent. Mumps virus Urabe strain had been tested in the clinical setting as a treatment for human cancer four decades ago in Japan.

Easy and Rapid Detection of Mumps Virus by Live Fluorescent Visualization of Virus-Infected Cells. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2015 Mumps viruses show diverse cytopathic effects (CPEs) of infected cells and viral plaque formation (no CPE or no plaque formation in some cases) depending on the viral strain, highlighting the difficulty in mumps laboratory studies. In our previous study,

A new method for the detection of neutralizing antibodies against mumps virus. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2013 Neutralization test is the most reliable method of evaluating immunity against viral diseases but there is no standard procedure for mumps virus, with tests differing in the infectivity of the challenge virus, 50% plaque reduction or complete inhibition ...

Mumps Orchitis: Clinical Aspects and Mechanisms
Frontiers in Immunology, 2021 The causative agent of mumps is a single-stranded, non-segmented, negative sense RNA virus belonging to the Paramyxoviridae family. Besides the classic symptom of painfully swollen parotid salivary glands (parotitis) in mumps virus (MuV)-infected men ...

Molecular epidemiology of mumps viruses in the Netherlands, 2017-2019
PLoS ONE, 2020 Mumps cases continue to occur, also in countries with a relatively high vaccination rate. The last major outbreaks of mumps in the Netherlands were in 2009–2012 and thereafter, only small clusters and single cases were reported.

Mumps, Cervical Zoster, and Facial Paralysis: Coincidence or Association?
Case Reports in Otolaryngology, 2014 The association of mumps with peripheral facial paralysis has been suggested, but its pathogenesis remains unclear. An 8-year-old girl simultaneously developed left peripheral facial paralysis, ipsilateral cervical herpes zoster, and bilateral mumps ...
