Transboundary and Emerging Diseases, Volume 2023, Issue 1, 2023., 2023 Hantaviruses are the causative agents of hantavirus pulmonary syndrome (HPS) in the Americas. In Central and South America, 28 hantavirus lineages were associated with different Sigmodontinae rodents. Of these, Lechiguanas hantavirus was initially described as a lineage associated with HPS cases in the central region of Argentina.

Medical and Veterinary Entomology, Volume 36, Issue 4, Page 456-468, December 2022., 2022 Study on a dairy goat farm compared three static trap designs with (a) UV light; (b) incandescent light or (c) semiochemical lure (no light). Sweep netting was used to define diel periodicity. Trap designs A and C collected significantly greater number of Culicoides specimens than trap B; trap C gained highest species richness despite no significant ...

ISG20: an enigmatic antiviral RNase targeting multiple viruses
FEBS Open Bio, Volume 12, Issue 6, Page 1096-1111, June 2022., 2022 ISG20 is a broad antiviral inhibitor and a potent RNase in vitro. However, a precise understanding of its mechanism of action is lacking. In this review, we discuss the latest developments on this fascinating innate defense factor. Interferon‐stimulated gene 20 kDa protein (ISG20) is a relatively understudied antiviral protein capable of inhibiting a ...

The evolutionary dynamics of Oropouche Virus (OROV) in South America [PDF]
, 2019 Abstract The Amazon basin is host to numerous arthropod-borne viral pathogens that cause febrile disease in humans. Among these, Oropouche orthobunyavirus (OROV) is a relatively understudied member of the Peribunyavirales that causes periodic outbreaks in human populations in Brazil
