Portable Rabies Virus Sequencing in Canine Rabies Endemic Countries Using the Oxford Nanopore MinION [PDF]
As countries with endemic canine rabies progress towards elimination by 2030, it will become necessary to employ techniques to help plan, monitor, and confirm canine rabies elimination.

The production of antibody by invading B cells is required for the clearance of rabies virus from the central nervous system. [PDF]
The pathogenesis of rabies is associated with the inability to deliver immune effectors across the blood-brain barrier and to clear virulent rabies virus from CNS tissues. However, the mechanisms that facilitate immune effector entry into CNS tissues are

Rabies in Sri Lanka: Splendid Isolation [PDF]
Rabies virus exists in dogs on Sri Lanka as a single, minimally divergent lineage only distantly related to other rabies virus lineages in Asia. Stable, geographically isolated virus populations are susceptible to local extinction.

Protocol for recombinant rabies virus titration by quantitative PCR [PDF]
Summary: Preparing high-titer virus and performing accurate titer determination are critical to subsequent experiments. However, not all applied recombinant rabies viruses, such as the L-deleted virus,1 are equipped with fluorescent proteins for ...

Presence of virus neutralizing antibodies in cerebral spinal fluid correlates with non-lethal rabies in dogs. [PDF]
Rabies is traditionally considered a uniformly fatal disease after onset of clinical manifestations. However, increasing evidence indicates that non-lethal infection as well as recovery from flaccid paralysis and encephalitis occurs in laboratory animals

Detection of rabies virus nucleoprotein-RNA in several organs outside the Central Nervous System in naturally-infected vampire bats [PDF]
Rabies is a neurological disease, but the rabies virus spread to several organs outside the central nervous system (CNS). The rabies virus antigen or RNA has been identified from the salivary glands, the lungs, the kidneys, the heart and the liver.

Mechanisms of escape phenomenon of spinal cord and brainstem in human rabies [PDF]
Background Rabies virus preferentially involves brainstem, thalamus and spinal cord in human furious and paralytic rabies beginning in the early stage of illness. Nevertheless, rabies patient remains alert until the pre-terminal phase.

The Phylogeography of Rabies in Grenada, West Indies, and Implications for Control [PDF]
In Grenada, West Indies, rabies is endemic, and is thought to be maintained in a wildlife host, the small Indian mongoose (Herpestes auropunctatus) with occasional spillover into other hosts.

Detection of rabies virus via exciton energy transfer between CdTe quantum dots and Au nanoparticles
Rabies is a fatal encephalitis caused by the rabies virus. The diagnosis of the disease depends in large part on the exposure history of the victim and clinical manifestations of the disease.
