Transcriptional analysis of viral mRNAs reveals common transcription patterns in cells infected by five different filoviruses. [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2018
Filoviruses are notorious viral pathogens responsible for high-consequence diseases in humans and non-human primates. Transcription of filovirus mRNA shares several common features with transcription in other non-segmented negative-strand viruses ...

In Silico Identification of Antiviral Peptides as Potential Leads Against Sudan Ebolavirus VP‐40

BioMed Research International, Volume 2026, Issue 1, 2026.
The continued reemergence of Ebola virus epidemics remains a global health concern, largely due to limited therapeutic interventions. This study is aimed at identifying and characterizing antiviral peptides as potential lead candidates against the Sudan Ebola virus.

The ebola virus interferon antagonist VP24 directly binds STAT1 and has a novel, pyramidal fold. [PDF]

PLoS Pathogens, 2012
Ebolaviruses cause hemorrhagic fever with up to 90% lethality and in fatal cases, are characterized by early suppression of the host innate immune system. One of the proteins likely responsible for this effect is VP24.

Ebolavirus Species-Specific Interferon Antagonism Mediated by VP24

Viruses, 2023
Members of the Ebolavirus genus demonstrate a marked differences in pathogenicity in humans with Ebola (EBOV) being the most pathogenic, Bundibugyo (BDBV) less pathogenic, and Reston (RESTV) is not known to cause a disease in humans.

Integrating climate change, biological invasions, and infectious wildlife diseases

Frontiers in Ecology and the Environment, Volume 23, Issue 6, August 2025.
Climate change is likely to affect infectious diseases that are facilitated by biological invasions, with repercussions for wildlife conservation and zoonotic risks. Current invasion management and policy are underprepared for the future risks associated with such invasion‐related wildlife diseases. By considering evidence from bioclimatology, invasion

Ebolavirus diagnosis made simple, comparable and faster than molecular detection methods: preparing for the future

Virology Journal, 2018
Background The 2014/2015 Ebolavirus outbreak resulted in more than 28,000 cases and 11,323 reported deaths, as of March 2016. Domestic transmission of the Guinea strain associated with the outbreak occurred mainly in six African countries, and ...

The Ebola virus glycoprotein contributes to but is not sufficient for virulence in vivo. [PDF]

PLoS Pathogens, 2012
Among the Ebola viruses most species cause severe hemorrhagic fever in humans; however, Reston ebolavirus (REBOV) has not been associated with human disease despite numerous documented infections.
