Apoptosis of Hepatocytes Caused by Punta Toro Virus (Bunyaviridae: Phlebovirus) and Its Implication for Phlebovirus Pathogenesis [PDF]
Experimental infection of hamsters with Punta Toro virus (PTV) produces a disease with clinical and pathological similarities to the severe human hemorrhagic fever caused by Rift Valley fever virus (RVFV), thus providing an animal model for RVFV pathogenesis. In this model, hepatocytic apoptosis is the main pathological component of liver injuries that
