Comparative virology and pathology of Monkeypox virus in Syrian hamsters, C57BL/6, and BALB/c mice: A framework for preclinical model selection

Animal Models and Experimental Medicine, EarlyView.
This study compared monkeypox virus (MPXV) infection in three small animal models: Syrian hamsters, C57BL/6 mice, and BALB/c mice. Following intraperitoneal inoculation, Syrian hamsters exhibited the highest susceptibility, with rapid systemic viral dissemination, elevated splenic and renal viral burdens, and severe histopathological damage, followed ...

Rainfall patterns and population dynamics of Aedes (Aedimorphus) vexans arabiensis, Patton 1905 (Diptera : Culicidae), a potential vector of Rift Valley Fever virus in Senegal [PDF]

, 2005
The importance of rainfall for the development of Aedes vexans arabiensis populations, one of the potential vectors of Rift Valley Fever in West Africa, was demonstrated in a two-year follow-up study conducted in the Ferlo region of Senegal. In 2003, the

Host, vector, and parasite dynamics: exploring intrinsic and extrinsic factors shaping tick‐borne filarial nematode transmission

Biological Reviews, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Tick‐borne filarial nematodes are a complex and understudied group of parasites that rely on ticks for transmission in vertebrates. This review examines how intrinsic and extrinsic factors may influence the successful transmission of filarial nematodes in tick vectors, drawing insights from extensively studied haematophagous dipteran vector ...

Community Awareness, Knowledge, Attitudes, and Perceptions Toward Viral Disease Outbreaks in Dar es Salaam, Tanzania

Public Health Challenges, Volume 5, Issue 2, June 2026.
High awareness of viral outbreaks in Dar es Salaam coexists with critical knowledge gaps, stigma, and vaccine hesitancy driven by trust and safety concerns. Targeted myth correction, anti‐stigma initiatives, and strategic digital health communication are essential to strengthen community preparedness and outbreak response.

Rift Valley Fever Virus

Rift Valley fever virus (RVFV) is a negative-sense, single-stranded RNA virus in the genus Phlebovirus of the family Phenuviridae. It is an arbovirus transmitted mainly by mosquitoes. RVFV is an emerging zoonotic disease where humans can get infected via exposure of mucosa or broken skin to infected animals or through mosquito transmission. The disease

Mapping of transcription termination within the S segment of SFTS phlebovirus facilitated the generation of NSs-deletant viruses [PDF]

, 2017
SFTS phlebovirus (severe fever with thrombocytopenia syndrome virus; SFTSV) is an emerging tick-borne bunyavirus that was first reported in China in 2009. Here we report the generation of a recombinant SFTSV (rHB29NSsKO) that cannot express the viral non-

Shrubs and trees as natural insect protection for grazing animals in Switzerland and the alpine region: A systematic review of in vitro, in vivo and clinical trials Sträucher und Bäume als natürlicher Insektenschutz für Weidetiere in der Schweiz und im Alpenraum: Eine systematische Literaturübersicht über in vitro‐, in vivo‐ und klinische Studien

Medical and Veterinary Entomology, Volume 40, Issue 2, Page 221-245, June 2026.
Biting or irritating insects are a threat to the health and welfare of grazing animals. This systematic review reveals that several shrubs and bushes growing in the alpine area have insecticidal, insect‐repellent and/or attractant properties. The alder Alnus glutinosa, juniper Juniperus communis, spruce Picea abies and walnut Juglans regia are ...
