Interrelation of the spatial and genetic structure of tick‐borne encephalitis virus, its reservoir host (Myodes glareolus), and its vector (Ixodes ricinus) in a natural focus area

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 14, Issue 8, August 2024.
Tick‐borne encephalitis is endemic throughout central Europe, ticks and rodents determine its maintenance in small, difficult‐to‐assess, natural foci. In long‐term TBEV foci bank vole populations show extraordinary genetic constitutions, leading to a particular population structure, whereas ticks revealed a panmictic genetic structure over all sampling

Estimating pathogen‐spillover risk using host–ectoparasite interactions

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 14, Issue 6, June 2024.
Understanding the interacting factors that lead to pathogen transmission in a zoonotic cycle could help identify novel hosts of pathogens and the patterns that lead to disease emergence. We use parasite ecology, phylogenetics, and geography to predict known and unknown hosts of hantavirus.

A Tale of Two Valleys: Disparity in Sin Nombre Virus Antibody Reactivity Between Neighboring Mojave Desert Communities. [PDF]

, 2019
INTRODUCTION:Hantaviruses are a group of globally distributed rodent-associated viruses, some of which are responsible for human morbidity and mortality. Sin Nombre orthohantavirus, a particularly virulent species of hantavirus associated with Peromyscus

Physiological strategies in wild rodents: immune defenses of commensal rats

Integrative Zoology, Volume 19, Issue 3, Page 350-370, May 2024.
Abstract The importance of issues associated with urban/commensal rats and mice (property damage, management costs, and health risks) press upon research on these animals. While the demography of commensal rodents is mostly studied, the need for understanding factors influencing their natural morbidity/mortality is also stressed. In this respect, more

Genomic signatures of climate adaptation in bank voles

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 14, Issue 3, March 2024.
We investigated adaptive differences in 12 bank vole populations across Europe in conjunction with geographic climate variation. We used multiple genotype‐environment associations, found that mean annual temperature was a shaping factor, and identified signatures of selection in candidate genes related to lipid metabolism and the immune system.

Development of an all-in-one real-time PCR assay for simultaneous detection of spotted fever group rickettsiae, severe fever with thrombocytopenia syndrome virus and orthohantavirus hantanense prevalent in central China

medRxiv
Central China has been reported to be one of the most important endemic areas of zoonotic infection by spotted fever group rickettsiae(SFGR), severe fever with thrombocytopenia syndrome virus (SFTSV) and orthohantavirus hantanense(HTNV).

Spatial risk of Haemaphysalis longicornis borne Dabieshan tick virus (DBTV) in China

Journal of Medical Virology, Volume 96, Issue 1, January 2024.
Abstract The uncertainty and unknowability of emerging infectious diseases have caused many major public health and security incidents in recent years. As a new tick‐borne disease, Dabieshan tick virus (DBTV) necessitate systematic epidemiological and spatial distribution analysis.

Serum Concentrations of TIM-3, LAG-3, and PD-1 in Patients with Hemorrhagic Fever with Renal Syndrome

Life
Hemorrhagic fever with renal syndrome (HFRS) is a rodent-borne disease widespread in Europe and Asia. HFRS is caused by negative-sensed single-stranded RNA orthohantaviruses transmitted to humans through inhaling aerosolized excreta of infected rodents ...
