Two Different Strains of Severe Fever with Thrombocytopenia Syndrome Virus (SFTSV) in North and South Osaka by Phylogenetic Analysis of Evolutionary Lineage: Evidence for Independent SFTSV Transmission [PDF]

Viruses, 2021
Severe fever with thrombocytopenia syndrome (SFTS) is a novel tick-borne infectious disease, therefore, the information on the whole genome of the SFTS virus (SFTSV) is still limited. This study demonstrates a nearly whole genome of the SFTSV identified in Osaka in 2017 and 2018 by next-generation sequencing (NGS).

Detection of SFTS virus RNA and antibodies in severe fever with thrombocytopenia syndrome surveillance cases in endemic areas of China

BMC Infectious Diseases, 2019
Background Severe fever with thrombocytopenia syndrome (SFTS) is a newly identified severe infectious disease caused by SFTS phlebovirus (SFTSV). SFTS monitoring has been carried out since 2010 in mainland China.

MYH9 is an Essential Factor for Porcine Reproductive and Respiratory Syndrome Virus Infection [PDF]

, 2016
Porcine reproductive and respiratory syndrome (PRRS) caused by the PRRS virus (PRRSV) is an important swine disease worldwide. PRRSV has a limited tropism for certain cells, which may at least in part be attributed to the expression of the necessary ...

Molecular detection of Rickettsia, Hepatozoon, Ehrlichia and SFTSV in goat ticks

Veterinary Parasitology: Regional Studies and Reports, 2020
Ticks are vectors of various pathogens to people, livestock, companion animals and wildlife. We describe here the ticks found on goats in Anhui province of China and the results of molecular studies on six tick-borne pathogens they might harbor. Among 125 ticks collected (119 Haemaphysalis longicornis, n = 119; Rhipicephalus microplus, n = 6), we ...

Naked-eye detection as a universal approach to lower the limit of detection of enzyme-linked immunoassays [PDF]

, 2016
Colorimetric biosensors for the detection of analytes with the naked eye are required in environmental monitoring, point-of-care diagnostics, and analyses in resources constrained settings, where detection instruments may not be available.

SFTSV infection is associated with transient overproliferation of monoclonal lambda-type plasma cells

iScience, 2023
The impairment of antibody-mediated immunity is a major factor associated with fatal cases of severe fever with thrombocytopenia syndrome (SFTS). By collating the clinical diagnosis reports of 30 SFTS cases, we discovered the overproliferation of monoclonal plasma cells (MCP cells, CD38+cLambda+cKappa-) in bone marrow, which has only been reported ...

Potassium is a trigger for conformational change in the fusion spike of an enveloped RNA virus [PDF]

, 2018
Many enveloped viruses enter cells through the endocytic network, from which they must subsequently escape through fusion of viral and endosomal membranes.

Dirofilaria repens testicular infection in child, Italy [PDF]

, 2022
Testicular Dirofilaria repens infection was identified and confirmed by sequence analysis in a child in northeastern Italy. Because human dirofilariasis is emerging in southern and eastern Europe, this parasitic infection should be considered in the ...
