Sin Nombre Virus Pathogenesis in Peromyscus maniculatus [PDF]
ABSTRACT Sin Nombre virus (SNV), a member of the Hantavirus genus, causes acute viral pneumonia in humans and is thought to persistently infect mice. The deer mouse, Peromyscus maniculatus , has been identified as the primary reservoir host for SNV. To understand SNV infection of

Summary: New World hantaviruses (NWHs) are endemic in North and South America and cause hantavirus cardiopulmonary syndrome (HCPS), with a case fatality rate of up to 40%. Knowledge of the natural humoral immune response to NWH infection is limited. Here,

Complete genetic characterization and analysis of isolation of Sin Nombre virus [PDF]
This study reports completion of the genetic characterization of the entire genome of Sin Nombre (SN) virus (NMH10) detected in autopsy tissues from a patient who died of hantavirus pulmonary syndrome (HPS). The large (L) genome segment was found to be 6,562 nucleotides in length and encoded a putative L polymerase that was 2,153 amino acids in length.

Hantavirus and Arenavirus Antibodies in Persons with Occupational Rodent Exposure, North America
Rodents are the principal hosts of Sin Nombre virus, 4 other hantaviruses known to cause hantavirus pulmonary syndrome in North America, and the 3 North American arenaviruses.

Sin Nombre Virus mRNA Synthesis
Sin Nombre (SN) virus is the major etiologic agent of hantavirus pulmonary syndrome, a severe respiratory disease with high mortality. Like other hantaviruses, SN virus causes an inapparent chronic infection of the natural rodent reservoir and tends to grow slowly and produce little cytopathic effect even in highly susceptible Vero E6 tissue culture ...

Temporal Analysis of Andes Virus and Sin Nombre Virus Infections of Syrian Hamsters [PDF]
ABSTRACTAndes virus (ANDV) and Sin Nombre virus (SNV) are rodent-borne hantaviruses that cause a highly lethal hemorrhagic fever in humans known as hantavirus pulmonary syndrome (HPS). There are no vaccines or specific drugs to prevent or treat HPS, and the pathogenesis is not understood.

Biodefense Implications of New-World Hantaviruses
Hantaviruses, part of the Bunyaviridae family, are a genus of negative-sense, single-stranded RNA viruses that cause two major diseases: New-World Hantavirus Cardiopulmonary Syndrome and Old-World Hemorrhagic Fever with Renal Syndrome.

Sin nombre virus glycoprotein trafficking
Sin Nombre virus (SNV) is a major representative of the New World hantaviruses and the most common cause of hantavirus pulmonary syndrome (HPS) with high mortality in North America. Unlike other members of the family Bunyaviridae which mature in the Golgi complex, New World hantaviruses have been previously reported to mature at the cell surface.

Naturally Occurring Sin Nombre Virus Genetic Reassortants
Genetic reassortment has been shown to play an important role in the evolution of several segmented RNA viruses and in the epidemiology of associated diseases. Sin Nombre (SN) virus is the cause of hantavirus pulmonary syndrome throughout the western United States.

Kinetics of immune responses in deer mice experimentally infected with Sin Nombre virus. [PDF]
ABSTRACTDeer mice are the principal reservoir hosts of Sin Nombre virus, the etiologic agent of most hantavirus cardiopulmonary syndrome cases in North America. Infection of deer mice results in persistence without conspicuous pathology, and most, if not all, infected mice remain infected for life, with periods of viral shedding.
