Monitoring of hepatitis E virus in zoo animals from Spain, 2007–2021

Transboundary and Emerging Diseases, Volume 69, Issue 6, Page 3992-4001, November 2022., 2022
Abstract Hepatitis E virus (HEV, family Hepeviridae) is an important emerging and zoonotic pathogen. In recent decades, the number of human cases of zoonotic hepatitis E has increased considerably in industrialized countries and HEV has been detected in an expanding range of mammal species.

Cocirculation of Leptospira spp. and multiple orthohantaviruses in rodents, Lithuania, Northern Europe

Transboundary and Emerging Diseases, Volume 69, Issue 5, Page e3196-e3201, September 2022., 2022
Abstract In Europe, zoonotic Leptospira spp. and orthohantaviruses are mainly associated with specific rodent hosts. These pathogens cause febrile human diseases with similar symptoms and disease progression. In Lithuania, the presence of Dobrava‐Belgrade orthohantavirus (DOBV), Tula orthohantavirus (TULV) and Leptospira spp.

Hepatitis E virus in the endangered Iberian lynx (Lynx pardinus)

Transboundary and Emerging Diseases, Volume 69, Issue 5, Page e2745-e2756, September 2022., 2022
Abstract Hepatitis E virus (HEV) is an emerging zoonotic pathogen in Europe. In the Iberian Peninsula, wild boar (Sus scrofa) is considered the main wildlife reservoir of HEV. This wild ungulate shares habitat and resources with other potential HEV carriers in Iberian Mediterranean ecosystems, although information about the role of such sympatric ...

Orthohantavirus Isolated in Reservoir Host Cells Displays Minimal Genetic Changes and Retains Wild-Type Infection Properties

Viruses, 2020
Orthohantaviruses are globally emerging zoonotic pathogens. While the reservoir host role of several rodent species is well-established, detailed research on the mechanisms of host-othohantavirus interactions has been constrained by the lack of an ...

Hypopituitarism after Orthohantavirus Infection: What is Currently Known?

Viruses, 2019
Several case reports have described hypopituitarism following orthohantavirus infection, mostly following Puumala virus. The pathogenesis of this seemingly rare complication of orthohantavirus infection remains unknown.

Severe Sinus Bradycardia in Puumala virus infection

International Journal of Infectious Diseases, 2019
Puumala orthohantavirus (PUUV) is the most prevalent of the four species of zoonotic hantaviruses found in Europe, causing nephropathia epidemica, a mild form of hemorrhagic fever with acute kidney injury that presents with elevated serum creatinine ...

Hemorrhagic Fever with Renal Syndrome Patients Exhibit Increased Levels of Lipocalin-2, Endothelin-1 and NT-proBNP

Life, 2023
Hemorrhagic fever with renal syndrome (HFRS) is an acute zoonotic disease caused by viruses of the Orthohantavirus genus. This syndrome is characterized by renal and cardiopulmonary implications detectable with different biomarkers. Here, we explored the

Impact of climate change on vector- and rodent-borne infectious diseases [PDF]

Journal of Health Monitoring, 2023
Background: Endemic and imported vector- and rodent-borne infectious agents can be linked to high morbidity and mortality. Therefore, vector- and rodent-borne human diseases and the effects of climate change are important public health issues.
