Immunopathogenesis of Nipah Virus Infection and Associated Immune Responses

open access: yesImmuno, 2023
Pandemics in the last two centuries have been initiated by causal pathogens that include Severe Acute Coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) and Influenza (e.g., the H1N1 pandemic of 2009).

‘Keeping the kids at home’ can limit the persistence of contagious pathogens in social animals

open access: yesJournal of Animal Ecology, Volume 90, Issue 11, Page 2523-2535, November 2021., 2021
Using a spatially implicit individual‐based susceptible‐infected‐recovered (SIR) model, the authors show that in host populations where juveniles are isolated from contact with individuals in other social groups, the transmission and persistence of contagious pathogens is reduced.

First report of porcine parainfluenza virus 1 (species Porcine respirovirus 1) in Europe

open access: yesTransboundary and Emerging Diseases, Volume 68, Issue 4, Page 1731-1735, July 2021., 2021
Abstract Porcine respirovirus 1, also known as Porcine parainfluenza virus 1 (PPIV‐1) was first identified in Hong Kong in 2013, later in the USA and most recently in Chile. Here, we report the first detection of PPIV‐1 outside these three regions. We screened 22 farms in Hungary by testing 15 nasal swab samples obtained from 3‐week‐old piglets (3 ...

Co-Circulation and Excretion Dynamics of Diverse Rubula- and Related Viruses in Egyptian Rousette Bats from South Africa

open access: yesViruses, 2019
The Egyptian rousette bat (Rousettus aegyptiacus) has previously been implicated as the natural host of a zoonotic rubulavirus; however, its association with rubulaviruses has been studied to a limited extent.

Metavirome and its functional diversity analysis through microbiome study of the Sikkim Himalayan hot spring solfataric mud sediments

open access: yesCurrent Research in Microbial Sciences, 2020
Viruses are the most prodigious repertory of the genetic material on the earth. They are elusive, breakneck, evolutionary life particles that constitute a riveting concealed world.

The Complete Sequence of a Human Parainfluenzavirus 4 Genome

open access: yesViruses, 2009
Although the human parainfluenza virus 4 (HPIV4) has been known for a long time, its genome, alone among the human paramyxoviruses, has not been completely sequenced to date.

Molecular detection of a novel paramyxovirus in fruit bats from Indonesia

open access: yesVirology Journal, 2012
Background Fruit bats are known to harbor zoonotic paramyxoviruses including Nipah, Hendra, and Menangle viruses. The aim of this study was to detect the presence of paramyxovirus RNA in fruit bats from Indonesia.

From conifers to cognition: Microbes, brain and behavior

open access: yesGenes, Brain and Behavior, Volume 19, Issue 8, November 2020., 2020
A century ago biologists were surprised to discover live microbes (endophytes) within healthy plant tissues. It is now apparent that this is also true of mammals where, in addition to the gut microbiome, a diversity of endogenous microbes (endozoites) are present in multiple tissues including the brain.

Alston Virus, a Novel Paramyxovirus Isolated from Bats Causes Upper Respiratory Tract Infection in Experimentally Challenged Ferrets

open access: yesViruses, 2018
Multiple viruses with zoonotic potential have been isolated from bats globally. Here we describe the isolation and characterization of a novel paramyxovirus, Alston virus (AlsPV), isolated from urine collected from an Australian pteropid bat colony in ...

Evidence for Retrovirus and Paramyxovirus Infection of Multiple Bat Species in China

open access: yesViruses, 2014
Bats are recognized reservoirs for many emerging zoonotic viruses of public health importance. Identifying and cataloguing the viruses of bats is a logical approach to evaluate the range of potential zoonoses of bat origin.
