Animal Models of Tick-Borne Hemorrhagic Fever Viruses [PDF]

open access: yesPathogens, 2013
Tick-borne hemorrhagic fever viruses (TBHFV) are detected throughout the African and Eurasian continents and are an emerging or re-emerging threat to many nations. Due to the largely sporadic incidences of these severe diseases, information on human cases and research activities in general have been limited.

Diversity of viruses in Ixodes ricinus, and characterization of a neurotropic strain of Eyach virus

open access: yesNew Microbes and New Infections, 2016
Ticks transmit more pathogens—including bacteria, parasites and viruses—than any other arthropod vector. Although the epidemiological status of many tick-borne bacteria is very well characterized, tick-borne viruses are still relatively under-studied ...

The Ecology of New Constituents of the Tick Virome and Their Relevance to Public Health

open access: yesViruses, 2019
Ticks are vectors of several pathogens that can be transmitted to humans and their geographic ranges are expanding. The exposure of ticks to new hosts in a rapidly changing environment is likely to further increase the prevalence and diversity of tick ...

Full-genome characterisation of Orungo, Lebombo and Changuinola viruses provides evidence for co-evolution of orbiviruses with their arthropod vectors. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2014
The complete genomes of Orungo virus (ORUV), Lebombo virus (LEBV) and Changuinola virus (CGLV) were sequenced, confirming that they each encode 11 distinct proteins (VP1-VP7 and NS1-NS4).

Newly recognized mosquito-associated viruses in mainland China, in the last two decades

open access: yesVirology Journal, 2011
There are four principal arboviruses in mainland China. Two kinds of them are mosquito-borne viruses, namely Japanese encephalitis virus and dengue virus, which lead to Japanese encephalitis, and dengue fever/dengue hemorrhagic fever respectively; the ...
