Murine Leukemia Virus-Induced Neurodegeneration of Rats: Enhancement of Neuropathogenicity Correlates with Enhanced Viral Tropism for Macrophages, Microglia, and Brain Vascular Cells [PDF]
A highly neuropathogenic retrovirus, NT40, was generated by serially passaging an infectious molecular clone of Friend murine leukemia virus, FB29, through F344 Fisher rats.

Human Foamy Virus: An Underestimated Neuropathogen?
Human foamy virus (HFV) is a recently characterized retrovirus which was originally isolated from patients with various neoplastic and degenerative diseases. However, until today it has not been possible to identify HFV as the causative agent of any disease and little is known about its prevalence in human populations.

Modelling West Nile Virus and Usutu Virus Pathogenicity in Human Neural Stem Cells
West Nile virus (WNV) and Usutu virus (USUV) are genetically related neurotropic mosquito-borne flaviviruses, which frequently co-circulate in nature. Despite USUV seeming to be less pathogenic for humans than WNV, the clinical manifestations induced by ...

Equid herpesvirus 1 (EHV-1) causes respiratory disease, abortion and neurological disorders in horses. Similarly, to other alphaherpesviruses, EHV-1 is neurotropic and establishes latency in the neurons of its natural host. Despite the fact that many studies have been devoted to the pathogenesis of various clinical forms of EHV-1 infection, mechanisms ...

Identification of a Novel Neuropathogenic Theiler's Murine Encephalomyelitis Virus [PDF]
ABSTRACT Theiler's murine encephalitis viruses (TMEV) are divided into two subgroups based on their neurovirulence. Persistent strains resemble Theiler's original viruses (referred to as the TO subgroup), which largely induce a subclinical polioencephalomyelitis during the acute phase of the disease and can persist in the spinal cord of ...

Understanding Enterovirus D68-Induced Neurologic Disease: A Basic Science Review
In 2014, the United States (US) experienced an unprecedented epidemic of enterovirus D68 (EV-D68)-induced respiratory disease that was temporally associated with the emergence of acute flaccid myelitis (AFM), a paralytic disease occurring predominantly ...
