Structural basis for Glycan-receptor binding by mumps virus hemagglutinin-neuraminidase. [PDF]
Mumps virus is one of the main cause of respiratory illnesses in humans, especially children. Among the viral surface glycoproteins, the hemagglutinin – neuraminidase, MuV-HN, plays key roles in virus entry into host cells and infectivity, thus ...

Seroprevalence of mumps in The Netherlands: dynamics over a decade with high vaccination coverage and recent outbreaks. [PDF]
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).

A new method for the detection of neutralizing antibodies against mumps virus. [PDF]
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
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 ...
