Sin Nombre Virus (SNV) Ig Isotype Antibody Response during Acute and Convalescent Phases of Hantavirus Pulmonary Syndrome

Emerging Infectious Diseases, 2000
Serum samples from 22 hantavirus pulmonary syndrome (HPS) patients were tested for Sin Nombre virus (SNV)-reactive antibodies. In the acute phase of HPS, 100% and 67% of the samples tested positive for SNV-specific immunoglobulin (Ig) M and IgA ...

High‐throughput microfluidic real‐time PCR as a promising tool in disease ecology

Journal of Animal Ecology, Volume 94, Issue 9, Page 1625-1637, September 2025.
This work highlights the diversity of disease ecology questions Htrt PCR could contribute to addressing in a given host–pathogen ecosystem. This tool could be used to answer a broad set of basic and applied questions in animal ecology, notably by providing a way to address issues involving communities of hosts and communities of pathogens.

Reappraisal of the Dilution and Amplification Effect Framework: A Case Study in Lyme Disease

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 15, Issue 8, August 2025.
The biodiversity–disease relationship posits two hypotheses: the dilution effect (where there's a negative relationship between biodiversity and disease risk) and the amplification effect (where there's a positive relationship). However, the literature has historically treated these hypotheses as either/or, ignoring the potential for a null result.

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 ...

Updated insights into the molecular pathogenesis of canine atopic dermatitis

Veterinary Dermatology, Volume 36, Issue 4, Page 375-384, August 2025.
Abstract Atopic dermatitis (AD) is a common and chronic inflammatory skin disease with frequent relapses. The genomics revolution has greatly contributed and revolutionised our knowledge of human AD; understanding the molecular skin fingerprint of AD and associated pathogenic immune pathways has led to preclinical assessments of several novel ...

What are the effects of sea lice on wild and farmed Pacific and Atlantic salmon? A systematic map protocol

Ecological Solutions and Evidence, Volume 6, Issue 3, July–September 2025.
This protocol sets out the research methodologies for a systematic map to identify, collate and describe the information that exists on the effects of sea lice from net‐pen salmon farms on wild, enhanced or farmed Pacific (i.e. Chinook, coho, chum, sockeye or pink salmon) and Atlantic salmon globally. The results will help guide further exploration and

A survey of ocular pathology in Warmblood horses in South Africa

Equine Veterinary Journal, Volume 57, Issue 4, Page 889-897, July 2025.
Abstract Background Warmblood horses are a popular breed around the world for equestrian sports. Previous studies have investigated ocular findings in other breeds of horses; however, no studies exist for the Warmblood breed. Objectives To determine the prevalence of ocular abnormalities in a convenience sample of Warmblood horses in South Africa and ...

Susceptible‐infected‐recovered model with stochastic transmission

Canadian Journal of Statistics, Volume 53, Issue 2, June 2025.
Abstract The susceptible‐infected‐recovered (SIR) model is the cornerstone of epidemiological models. However, this specification depends on two parameters only, which results in its lack of flexibility and explains its difficulty to replicate the volatile reproduction numbers observed in practice.
