Pathology and host-pathogen interactions in a golden Syrian hamster model of Nipah virus infection
Nipah virus (NiV) is recognized as one of the key pathogens with pandemic potential. We have recently established a NiV hamster model, which reproduces a highly similar disease to that observed in human cases, including respiratory and neurological signs

Establishment of Humanized EFNB2/B3 Murine Models for Investigating Nipah Virus Pathogenesis
ABSTRACT Nipah virus (NiV) is a zoonotic paramyxovirus classified as a WHO priority pathogen, which causes severe respiratory disease and encephalitis in humans with high mortality. Currently, no licensed vaccines or specific antiviral therapies are available.

A note on the use of the isolated stomach preparation of the Syrian golden hamster [PDF]
The sensitivity of the isolated stomach strip of the Syrian golden hamster to some neurohormones has been assessed. Acetylcholine (5 × 10−9 g/ml), histamine (10−8 g/ml), bradykinin (10−9 g/ml) and angiotensin (10−9 g/ml) contracted the preparation.
