Incubation Period for Neuroinvasive Toscana Virus Infections [PDF]
Emerging Infectious Diseases, 2021 Toscana virus (TOSV) is an emerging pathogen in the Mediterranean area and is neuroinvasive in its most severe form. Basic knowledge on TOSV biology is limited. We conducted a systematic review on travel-related infections to estimate the TOSV incubation

The phenuivirus Toscana virus makes an atypical use of vacuolar acidity to enter host cells. [PDF]
PLoS Pathogens, 2023 Toscana virus is a major cause of arboviral disease in humans in the Mediterranean basin during summer. However, early virus-host cell interactions and entry mechanisms remain poorly characterized. Investigating iPSC-derived human neurons and cell lines,

Genetic Diversity of Toscana Virus
Emerging Infectious Diseases, 2009 Distribution of Toscana virus (TOSV) is evolving with climate change, and pathogenicity may be higher in nonexposed populations outside areas of current prevalence (Mediterranean Basin). To characterize genetic diversity of TOSV, we determined the coding
