Evaluation of Signature Erosion in Ebola Virus Due to Genomic Drift and Its Impact on the Performance of Diagnostic Assays

open access: yesViruses, 2015
Genome sequence analyses of the 2014 Ebola Virus (EBOV) isolates revealed a potential problem with the diagnostic assays currently in use; i.e., drifting genomic profiles of the virus may affect the sensitivity or even produce false-negative results.

Land Use Change and Infectious Disease Emergence

open access: yesReviews 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

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

open access: yesJournal 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.

Reemergence of Reston ebolavirus in Cynomolgus Monkeys, the Philippines, 2015

open access: yesEmerging Infectious Diseases, 2018
In August 2015, a nonhuman primate facility south of Manila, the Philippines, noted unusual deaths of 6 cynomolgus monkeys (Macaca fascicularis), characterized by generalized rashes, inappetence, or sudden death.

Chronological and Spatial Analysis of the 1996 Ebola Reston Virus Outbreak in a Monkey Breeding Facility in the Philippines.

open access: yesExperimental Animals, 2002
To describe the transmission pattern of natural infection with Ebola Reston (EBO-R) virus in a breeding colony, the chronological and spatial analysis of mortality during the 1996 EBO-R virus outbreak was done in this study. The EBO-R virus infection among monkeys in the facility was widespread.

Marburg Virus Disease: A Narrative Review

open access: yesHealth Science Reports, Volume 8, Issue 5, May 2025.
ABSTRACT Background and Aims Given the recent deadly outbreaks of the Marburg virus (MARV), in early 2023 in Tanzania and Equatorial Guinea, and the most recent one in Rwanda in 2024, there has been renewed attention across Africa on the threat posed by the re‐emergence of MARV as a growing concern for public health.

Ecologic and Geographic Distribution of Filovirus Disease

open access: yesEmerging Infectious Diseases, 2004
We used ecologic niche modeling of outbreaks and sporadic cases of filovirus-associated hemorrhagic fever (HF) to provide a large-scale perspective on the geographic and ecologic distributions of Ebola and Marburg viruses.

Effect of in vivo reprogramming of astrocytes combined with exercise training on neurorepair in rats with spinal cord injury

open access: yesAnimal Models and Experimental Medicine, Volume 8, Issue 4, Page 595-605, April 2025.
Exercise and astrocyte reprogramming synergize to enhance motor function and reduce glial scarring after spinal cord injury, with combined therapies surpassing individual effects. Abstract Background The inability of damaged neurons to regenerate and of axons to establish new functional connections leads to permanent functional deficits after spinal ...
