Sin Nombre Virus mRNA Synthesis
Virology, 1996 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 ...

Biodefense Implications of New-World Hantaviruses
Frontiers in Bioengineering and Biotechnology, 2020 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.

Naturally Occurring Sin Nombre Virus Genetic Reassortants
Virology, 1995 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.

Prediction and prevention of the next pandemic zoonosis. [PDF]
, 2012 Most pandemics--eg, HIV/AIDS, severe acute respiratory syndrome, pandemic influenza--originate in animals, are caused by viruses, and are driven to emerge by ecological, behavioural, or socioeconomic changes.

Anticipating the species jump: surveillance for emerging viral threats. [PDF]
, 2012 Zoonotic disease surveillance is typically triggered after animal pathogens have already infected humans. Are there ways to identify high-risk viruses before they emerge in humans? If so, then how and where can identifications be made and by what methods?

High prevalence of antibodies to human herpesvirus 8 in relatives of patients with classic Kaposi's sarcoma from Sardinia [PDF]
, 1998 A survey for antibodies to a recombinant small viral capsid antigen (sVCA) of human herpesvirus type 8 (HHV‐8) was conducted in Sardinia, one of the world's highest incidence areas for classic Kaposi's sarcoma (KS). Prevalence of antibodies to HHV‐8 sVCA

Community Assembly Reveals How Environmental Controls Over Rodent Competition Drive Deer Mouse Density and Hantavirus Infection [PDF]
Ecol LettWe examined how community assembly processes shape Sin Nombre hantavirus (SNV) dynamics in rodent communities across the southwestern United States. Environmental factors structured community composition, which regulated deer mouse abundance and SNV infection, rather than diversity alone.

Stochastic modelling of the biodiversity effect on sin nombre virus (SNV) prevalence [PDF]
AIP Conference Proceedings, 2020 The deer mouse, Peromyscus maniculatus, is one of the carriers for the Sin Nombre Virus (SNV). Contact with the SNV infected mice’s saliva, urea or excreta may cause fatal disease among humans. In this paper, the study analyzed the biodiversity effect on the SNV prevalence in the deer mouse population from a stochastic perspective.

Hantavirus Cardiopulmonary Syndrome in Canada
Emerging Infectious Diseases, 2020 Hantavirus cardiopulmonary syndrome (HCPS) is a severe respiratory disease caused by Sin Nombre virus in North America (SNV). As of January 1, 2020, SNV has caused 143 laboratory-confirmed cases of HCPS in Canada.
