Nipah Virus in Lyle's Flying Foxes, Cambodia
We conducted a survey in Cambodia in 2000 on henipavirus infection among several bat species, including flying foxes, and persons exposed to these animals. Among 1,072 bat serum samples tested by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay, antibodies reactive to Nipah virus (NiV) antigen were detected only in Pteropus lylei species; Cynopterus sphinx, Hipposideros larvatus, Scotophilus kuhlii, Chaerepho...
متن کاملAntibodies to Nipah-Like Virus in Bats (Pteropus lylei), Cambodia
Serum specimens from fruit bats were obtained at restaurants in Cambodia. We detected antibodies cross-reactive to Nipah virus by enzyme immunoassay in 11 (11.5%) of 96 Lyle's flying foxes (Pteropus lylei). Our study suggests that viruses closely related to Nipah or Hendra viruses are more widespread in Southeast Asia than previously documented.
متن کاملLyssavirus in Indian Flying Foxes, Sri Lanka
A novel lyssavirus was isolated from brains of Indian flying foxes (Pteropus medius) in Sri Lanka. Phylogenetic analysis of complete virus genome sequences, and geographic location and host species, provides strong evidence that this virus is a putative new lyssavirus species, designated as Gannoruwa bat lyssavirus.
متن کاملNipah virus: Phylogeny and replication
Phylogenetic analysis of Nipah virus isolates from Malaysia, Bangladesh and Cambodia suggested the presence of at least two different clusters of NiV strains. Based on the major glycoprotein (G) gene, the Nipah virus-Tambun isolate clustered with Nipah virus isolates from Cambodia and Bangladesh, whereas the remaining isolates from Malaysia clustered in a separate cluster. Sequence heterogeneit...
متن کاملSpatiotemporal Aspects of Hendra Virus Infection in Pteropid Bats (Flying-Foxes) in Eastern Australia
Hendra virus (HeV) causes highly lethal disease in horses and humans in the eastern Australian states of Queensland (QLD) and New South Wales (NSW), with multiple equine cases now reported on an annual basis. Infection and excretion dynamics in pteropid bats (flying-foxes), the recognised natural reservoir, are incompletely understood. We sought to identify key spatial and temporal factors asso...
