Brief Research Report: Ebola Virus Differentially Infects Human Iris and Retinal Pigment Epithelial Cells

Frontiers in Virology, 2022
Uveitis is a common manifestation of post-Ebola syndrome, associated with persistence of Ebola virus (EBOV; Zaire ebolavirus) inside the eye. The iris and retinal pigment epithelia are key components of the blood-ocular barriers, but have the capacity to

Ebola Reston Virus Infection of Pigs: Clinical Significance and Transmission Potential [PDF]

The Journal of Infectious Diseases, 2011
In 2008, Reston ebolavirus (REBOV) was isolated from pigs during a disease investigation in the Philippines. Porcine reproductive and respiratory syndrome virus (PRRSV) and porcine circovirus type 2 (PCV-2) infections were also confirmed in affected herds and the contribution of REBOV to the disease outbreak remains uncertain.

Ebola Virus Antibodies in Fruit Bats, Bangladesh

Emerging Infectious Diseases, 2013
To determine geographic range for Ebola virus, we tested 276 bats in Bangladesh. Five (3.5%) bats were positive for antibodies against Ebola Zaire and Reston viruses; no virus was detected by PCR.

Ebola-Reston virus in pigs [PDF]

Microbiology Australia, 2009
Ebolavirus Reston was detected in samples taken from pigs on two farms in the northern Philippines in mid-2008. This was the first known case of any of the filoviruses being detected in pigs anywhere in the world. Previously, filoviruses have only been isolated from humans and non-human primates, although serological evidence indicates that bats may ...
