Robust functional response to WNV by NK cells from asymptomatic and symptomatic WNV subjects.
, 2017 PBMCs from asymptomatic (n = 10) and symptomatic (n = 12) WNV subjects were incubated with medium alone (mock) or infected with WNV (MOI = 1) for 24 h.

Differential Virulence and Pathogenesis of West Nile Viruses
Viruses, 2013 West Nile virus (WNV) is a neurotropic flavivirus that cycles between mosquitoes and birds but that can also infect humans, horses, and other vertebrate animals. In most humans, WNV infection remains subclinical.

Specific infectivity of WNV replication complex mutants.
, 2015 WNV RNA (viral particles) and infectious virus (pfu) were quantified following 1-step growth on mosquito (CxT) or vertebrate (BHK) cell culture and specific infectivity (particle/pfu) was compared among WNV-IC, WNV V793I/G806R and WNV T248I.

Induction of sterilizing immunity against West Nile Virus (WNV), by immunization with WNV-like particles produced in insect cells [PDF]
, 2004 No specific vaccine for West Nile virus (WNV) is currently available for human use. In the present study, we describe the generation of WNV-like particles (WNV-LPs) in insect cells by use of recombinant baculoviruses expressing the WNV structural ...

West Nile virus in overwintering mosquitoes, central Europe
Parasites & Vectors, 2017 Background West Nile virus (WNV) is currently the most important mosquito-borne pathogen spreading in Europe. Data on overwintering of WNV in mosquitoes are crucial for understanding WNV circulation in Europe; nonetheless, such data were not available so

Confidence Intervals for a Proportion Estimated From Pooled Samples Based on Firth's Corrected Score
Biometrical Journal, Volume 68, Issue 5, October 2026.ABSTRACT Interval estimation of a proportion estimated from testing of pooled samples has been studied by a variety of researchers, who have examined both exact and asymptotic methods. Recent work in point estimation has seen the use of Firth's correction to maximum likelihood estimation to reduce bias effectively. We consider the Firth‐corrected score

IL-10 signaling blockade controls murine West Nile virus infection.
PLoS Pathogens, 2009 West Nile virus (WNV), a mosquito-borne single-stranded RNA flavivirus, can cause significant human morbidity and mortality. Our data show that interleukin-10 (IL-10) is dramatically elevated both in vitro and in vivo following WNV infection.
