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.

Twenty-Year Summary of Surveillance for Human Hantavirus Infections, United States

Emerging Infectious Diseases, 2013
In the past 20 years of surveillance for hantavirus in humans in the United States, 624 cases of hantavirus pulmonary syndrome (HPS) have been reported, 96% of which occurred in states west of the Mississippi River.

Autophagic Clearance of Sin Nombre Hantavirus Glycoprotein Gn Promotes Virus Replication in Cells [PDF]

Journal of Virology, 2012
ABSTRACT Hantavirus glycoprotein precursor (GPC) is posttranslationally cleaved into two glycoproteins, Gn and Gc. Cells transfected with plasmids expressing either GPC or both Gn and Gc revealed that Gn is posttranslationally degraded. Treatment of cells with the autophagy inhibitors 3-methyladenine, LY-294002, or Wortmanin rescued Gn ...

Effects of Tumor Necrosis Factor Alpha on Sin Nombre Virus Infection In Vitro [PDF]

Journal of Virology, 2000
ABSTRACTPrevious data indicate that immune mechanisms may be involved in developing capillary leakage during Sin Nombre virus (SNV) infection. Therefore, we investigated production of tumor necrosis factor alpha (TNF-α) by human alveolar macrophages and human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVEC) after infection with SNV.

Neutralizing Antibodies in Survivors of Sin Nombre and Andes Hantavirus Infection

Emerging Infectious Diseases, 2006
We evaluated titers of homotypic and heterotypic neutralizing antibodies (NAbs) to Andes and Sin Nombre hantaviruses in plasma samples from 20 patients from Chile and the United States. All but 1 patient had high titers of NAb. None of the plasma samples

Of voles and men: novel Hantavirus in vitro models [PDF]

, 2013
Hantavirus-infection can cause severe disease in humans, with up to 40% case fatalities. Presently, no therapeutics or prophylaxis against hantaviral illness exists.

Faunistic inventory of the genus Culicoides (Diptera: Ceratopogonidae) in Mauritius Island, Indian Ocean: Diversity and spatial distribution of species of veterinary interest Inventaire faunistique du genre Culicoides (Diptera: Ceratopogonidae) sur l'île Maurice dans l'océan Indien: diversité et répartition spatiale des espèces présentant un intérêt vétérinaire

Medical and Veterinary Entomology, EarlyView.
Four Afrotropical Culicoides species are recorded in Mauritius with suspected or historically involvement in BTV and EHDV transmission. All species were distributed all over the island. While intra‐specific morphological variations were detected, genetic analyses did not reveal any cryptic diversity. Abstract Viruses transmitted by biting midge species

Preclinical evaluation of a fully human, quadrivalent-hantavirus polyclonal antibody derived from a non-human source

mBio
Hantaviruses are rodent-borne viruses that cause severe disease in infected humans. In the New World, major hantaviruses include Andes virus (ANDV) and Sin Nombre virus (SNV) causing hantavirus pulmonary syndrome.

Temporal and geographic evidence for evolution of Sin Nombre virus using molecular analyses of viral RNA from Colorado, New Mexico and Montana

Virology Journal, 2009
Background All viruses in the family Bunyaviridae possess a tripartite genome, consisting of a small, a medium, and a large RNA segment. Bunyaviruses therefore possess considerable evolutionary potential, attributable to both intramolecular changes and ...
