Bourbon Virus in Wild and Domestic Animals, Missouri, USA, 2012–2013

Emerging Infectious Diseases, 2019
Since its recent discovery, Bourbon virus has been isolated from a human and ticks. To assess exposure of potential vertebrate reservoirs, we assayed banked serum and plasma samples from wildlife and domestic animals in Missouri, USA, for Bourbon virus ...

Rapid Molecular Detection Methods for Arboviruses of Livestock of Importance to Northern Europe

BioMed Research International, Volume 2012, Issue 1, 2012., 2012
Arthropod‐borne viruses (arboviruses) have been responsible for some of the most explosive epidemics of emerging infectious diseases over the past decade. Their impact on both human and livestock populations has been dramatic. The early detection either through surveillance or diagnosis of virus will be a critical feature in responding and resolving ...

Soluble Host Defense Lectins in Innate Immunity to Influenza Virus

BioMed Research International, Volume 2012, Issue 1, 2012., 2012
Host defenses against viral infections depend on a complex interplay of innate (nonspecific) and adaptive (specific) components. In the early stages of infection, innate mechanisms represent the main line of host defense, acting to limit the spread of virus in host tissues prior to the induction of the adaptive immune response.

Bourbon Virus in Field-Collected Ticks, Missouri, USA

Emerging Infectious Diseases, 2017
Bourbon virus (BRBV) was first isolated in 2014 from a resident of Bourbon County, Kansas, USA, who died of the infection. In 2015, an ill Payne County, Oklahoma, resident tested positive for antibodies to BRBV, before fully recovering.

Characterization of a strain of quaranfil virus isolated from soft ticks in India. Is quaranfil virus an unrecognized cause of disease in human and animals?”

Heliyon, 2019
The soft ticks collected during a field survey in Karnataka state, India, in 1983, yielded a novel virus isolate, which caused mortality in an infant mouse upon inoculation.

Isolation and Characterization of a Novel Orthomyxovirus from a Bothriocroton hydrosauri Tick Removed from a Blotched Blue-Tongued Skink (Tiliqua nigrolutea) in Tasmania, Australia

Zoonotic Diseases
Active and passive surveillance, followed by gene sequencing, continue to be used to identify a diverse range of novel bacteria, viruses, and other microorganisms in ticks with the potential to cause disease in vertebrate hosts following tick bite.

Proteomics computational analyses suggest that baculovirus GP64 superfamily proteins are class III penetrenes

Virology Journal, 2008
Background Members of the Baculoviridae encode two types of proteins that mediate virus:cell membrane fusion and penetration into the host cell.

Combinatorial mutagenesis of rapidly evolving residues yields super-restrictor antiviral proteins.

PLoS Biology, 2019
Antagonistic interactions drive host-virus evolutionary arms races, which often manifest as recurrent amino acid changes (i.e., positive selection) at their protein-protein interaction interfaces.

Results of investigation of ticks in Volga river delta (Astrakhan region, 2017) for Crimean-Congo hemorrhagic fever virus (Nairoviridae, Orthonairovirus, CCHFV) and other tick-borne arboviruses

Вопросы вирусологии, 2019
Introduction. There are natural foci of Crimean-Congo hemorrhagic fever (CCHF) that vectored by Hyalomma marginatum ticks in Volga river delta (Astrakhan region, South of Russia). The circulation of Dhori virus (DHOV) (Thogotovirus: Orthomyxoviridae) has

Silver Nanoparticle‐Mediated Antiviral Efficacy against Enveloped Viruses: A Comprehensive Review

Global Challenges, Volume 9, Issue 5, May 2025.
Silver nanoparticles (AgNPs) exhibit broad‐spectrum antiviral activity by targeting key viral structures and processes. They disrupt viral envelopes, compromising integrity, and bind to nucleocapsids, impairing viral replication. AgNPs also inhibit glycoprotein interactions, preventing viral attachment and entry into host cells.
