Genomic and phenotypic characterization of the Oropouche virus strain implicated in the 2022–24 large‐scale outbreak in Brazil

Journal of Medical Virology, Volume 96, Issue 10, October 2024.
Abstract The Orthobunyavirus oropoucheense species encompasses a group of arthropod‐borne zoonotic viruses transmitted by biting midges to animals including humans. Several large‐scale human outbreaks caused by the prototype member of this species, Oropouche virus (OROV) have been documented since the 1970s and were primarily confined to the Amazon ...

Establishment of a mouse allergy model for Culicoides (Diptera: Ceratopogonidae)

Veterinary Medicine and Science, Volume 10, Issue 3, May 2024.
Six‐week‐old mice were sensitised using a two‐step method using Culicoides extract, and the model was evaluated by behavioural, histopathology and specific antibody detection. Immunohistochemical staining showed a significant increase in the infiltration of CD4 and CD8 T cells into the dermal tissue of Culicoides‐sensitised mice, compared to control ...

Sylvatic cycles of arboviruses in non-human primates

Parasites & Vectors, 2019
Arboviruses infecting people primarily exist in urban transmission cycles involving urban mosquitoes in densely populated tropical regions. For dengue, chikungunya, Zika and yellow fever viruses, sylvatic (forest) transmission cycles also exist in some ...
