The Study of Viral RNA Diversity in Bird Samples Using De Novo Designed Multiplex Genus‐Specific Primer Panels

Advances in Virology, Volume 2018, Issue 1, 2018., 2018
Advances in the next generation sequencing (NGS) technologies have significantly increased our ability to detect new viral pathogens and systematically determine the spectrum of viruses prevalent in various biological samples. In addition, this approach has also helped in establishing the associations of viromes with many diseases.

Vector‐borne diseases

EFSA Journal, Volume 15, Issue 5, May 2017., 2017
Abstract After a request from the European Commission, EFSA's Panel on Animal Health and Welfare summarised the main characteristics of 36 vector‐borne diseases (VBDs) in 36 Disease Profiles. The risk of introduction in the EU through movement of livestock or pets was assessed for each of the 36 VBDs individually, using a semiquantitative Method to ...

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.

Structural analysis of tumor‐related single amino acid mutations in human MxA protein

Cancer Communications, Volume 34, Issue 3, Page 1-11, December 2015., 2015
Abstract Background Human myxovirus resistant protein A (MxA), encoded by the myxovirus resistance 1 (Mx1) gene, is an interferon (IFN)‐triggered dynamin‐like multi‐domain GTPase involved in innate immune responses against viral infections. Recent studies suggest that MxA is associated with several human cancers and may be a tumor suppressor and a ...

The Ticks (Arachnida: Acari: Ixodida) of Arkansas [PDF]

, 2016
Although ticks are a nuisance to humans and other animals, they are an important part of the biota of North America. In addition, they are vectors of many tick-borne disease agents that can negatively affect higher vertebrates.

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 ...

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.

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.
