  1. 1. TRANSMISSION AND PATHOGENESIS OF HANTAVIRUS

    Författare :Lisa Pettersson; Magnus Evander; Clas Ahlm; Annika Allard; Tatjana Avšič - Županc; Umeå universitet; []
    Nyckelord :Puumala virus; Hantavirus; human-to-human transmission; saliva; nephropathia epidemica; NE; IgA; IgG; IgM; neutrophils; neutrophil; viremia; treatment; climate; snow cover; temperature.; medicinsk virologi; Medical Virology;

    Sammanfattning : Hantaviruses are the causative agents of hemorrhagic fever with renal syndrome (HFRS) in Eurasia, and of hantavirus cardiopulmonary syndrome (HCPS) in the Americas. Transmission to humans usually occurs by inhalation of aerosolized virus-contaminated rodent excreta. LÄS MER

  3. 2. Implications of Local Puumala Hantavirus Genetics and Epidemiology for Diagnostics and Vaccine Development

    Författare :Patrik Johansson; Fredrik Elgh; Göran Bucht; Detlev Krüger; Umeå universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Communicable diseases; hantavirus; Puumala virus; nephropathia epidemica; genome sequence; glycosylation; linear DNA vaccine; microarray; identification; genetic variability; Infektionssjukdomar; Infectious diseases; Infektionssjukdomar; medicinsk virologi; Medical Virology;

    Sammanfattning : Puumala viruses, a member of the Hantavirus genus in the Bunyaviridae family, are enveloped by a lipid bilayer and possesses a tripartite single stranded RNA genome with negative polarity. The hantaviruses encode four proteins: a nucleocapsid protein (N), two membrane spanning glycoproteins (GN and GC) and a RNA dependent RNA polymerase (RdRp). LÄS MER

  4. 3. Cyclic voles and Puumala hantavirus in a changing boreal landscape

    Författare :Magnus Magnusson; Sveriges lantbruksuniversitet; Sveriges lantbruksuniversitet; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES;

    Sammanfattning : Land-use change is causing extinction of species globally, while also increasing the risk of disease exposure to humans through augmented interactions with wildlife, when humans live and work in manipulated ecosystems or when animals seek shelter/refuge in man-made infrastructure. Forestry is one such activity, which is continually altering forest structure worldwide, causing habitat loss for many specialized forest species. LÄS MER

  5. 4. Hantaviruses : shedding, stability and induction of apoptosis

    Författare :Jonas Hardestam; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Nyckelord :;

    Sammanfattning : Hantaviruses are spread and maintained in different rodent and insectivore species worldwide. Humans are believed to be infected mainly by inhalation of aerosolized contaminated rodent excreta. LÄS MER

  7. 5. Human antibody responses to hantavirus recombinant proteins & development of diagnostic methods

    Författare :Fredrik Elgh; Umeå universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Puumala virus; hantavirus infections; recombinant proteins; capsid; humoral immunity; immunoassay;

    Sammanfattning : Rodent-borne hantaviruses (family Bunyaviridae) cause two distinct human infections; hemorrhagic fever with renal syndrome (HFRS) and hantavirus pulmonary syndrome (HPS). HFRS is a common viral zoonosis, characterized by fever, renal dysfunction and hemostatic imbalance. LÄS MER
