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

Structural Basis for Differential Neutralization of Ebolaviruses

Viruses, 2012
There are five antigenically distinct ebolaviruses that cause hemorrhagic fever in humans or non-human primates (Ebola virus, Sudan virus, Reston virus, Taï Forest virus, and Bundibugyo virus).

Implication of a retrovirus-like glycoprotein peptide in the immunopathogenesis of Ebola and Marburg viruses [PDF]

, 2006
Ebola and Marburg viruses can cause hemorrhagic fever (HF) outbreaks with high mortality in primates. Whereas Marburg (MARV), Ebola Zaire (ZEBOV), and Ebola Sudan (SEBOV) viruses are pathogenic in humans, apes, and monkeys, Ebola Reston (REBOV) is ...

Generation and Characterization of Anti-Filovirus Nucleoprotein Monoclonal Antibodies

Viruses, 2019
Filoviruses cause lethal hemorrhagic fever in humans. The filovirus nucleoprotein (NP) is expressed in high abundance in infected cells and is essential for virus replication.

Land Use Change and Infectious Disease Emergence

Reviews of Geophysics, Volume 63, Issue 2, June 2025.
Abstract Major infectious diseases threatening human health are transmitted to people from animals or by arthropod vectors such as insects. In recent decades, disease outbreaks have become more common, especially in tropical regions, including new and emerging infections that were previously undetected or unknown. Even though there is growing awareness

Experimental Inoculation of Egyptian Rousette Bats (Rousettus aegyptiacus) with Viruses of the Ebolavirus and Marburgvirus Genera

Viruses, 2015
The Egyptian rousette bat (Rousettus aegyptiacus) is a natural reservoir for marburgviruses and a consistent source of virus spillover to humans. Cumulative evidence suggests various bat species may also transmit ebolaviruses.

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 ...

Evaluation of bigano snail (Stramonita haemastoma) as a seafood resource

Journal of the World Aquaculture Society, Volume 56, Issue 3, June 2025.
Abstract Bigano snail, Stramonita haemastoma, commonly known as oyster drill or red‐mouthed rock whelks, has gained growing interest as a potential seafood product. However, to date, there is a notable lack of preliminary evaluation regarding its commercial viability.

Re-emerging infectious diseases: Ebola hemorrhagic fever [PDF]

Romanian Journal of Military Medicine, 2014
The spring of 2014 has brought a new calamity, the exotic infectious disease: Ebola Hemorrhagic Fever, which is caused by a highly contagious and pathogenic virus, transmitted directly by interpersonal contact or indirectly by common usage of objects ...

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.
