Rift Valley fever: A zoonotic disease with global potential

Open Veterinary Journal
An arthropod-borne zoonotic disease called Rift Valley fever (RVF) spreads widely among ruminant animals and humans. Rift Valley Fever is caused by the Rift Valley Fever Virus (RVFV), a round-enveloped RNA virus belonging to the genus Phlebovirus and ...

Development of a Visible Reverse Transcription-Loop-Mediated Isothermal Amplification Assay for the Detection of Rift Valley Fever Virus

Frontiers in Microbiology, 2020
Rift Valley fever (RVF) is a severe infectious disease, which can through mosquito bites, direct contact and aerosol transmission infect sheep, goats, people, camels, cattle, buffaloes, and so on. In this paper, a conserved region of the S RNA segment of

RVFV-6 binds to cells independent of RVFV GnGc expression.

, 2013
Vero E6 cells were transfected with a plasmid expressing RVFV GnGc. Forty-eight h later, either the biotin-labeled RVFV-6 peptide or the biotin-labeled RVFV-6sc peptide was added to the cells followed by washing with PBS.

Reproducing the Rift Valley fever virus mosquito-lamb-mosquito transmission cycle

Scientific Reports, 2021
Rift Valley fever virus (RVFV) is a mosquito-borne bunyavirus that is pathogenic to ruminants and humans. The virus is endemic to Africa and the Arabian Peninsula where outbreaks are characterized by abortion storms and mortality of newborns ...

Antibody response in RVFV-infected goats.

, 2012
Antibody response to RVFV was measured by plaque reduction neutralisation test (PRNT). The reciprocal of the serum dilution giving at least 70% plaque inhibition relative to the virus control was taken as the PRNT70 titre for that sample.

Neutrophil and macrophage influx into the central nervous system are inflammatory components of lethal Rift Valley fever encephalitis in rats.

PLoS Pathogens, 2019
Rift Valley fever virus (RVFV) causes severe disease in livestock concurrent with zoonotic transmission to humans. A subset of people infected with RVFV develop encephalitis, and significant gaps remain in our knowledge of how RVFV causes pathology in ...
