Neotropical Bats from Costa Rica harbour Diverse Coronaviruses
(2015-02-04)Bats are hosts of diverse coronaviruses (CoVs) known to potentially cross the host–species barrier. For analysing coronavirus diversity in a bat species-rich country, a total of 421 anal swabs/faecal samples from Costa ... -
Neotropical bats that co-habit with humans function as dead-end hosts for dengue virus
(2017-05-18)Several studies have shown Dengue Virus (DENV) nucleic acids and/or antibodies present in Neotropical wildlife including bats, suggesting that some bat species may be susceptible to DENV infection. Here we aim to elucidate ... -
Neotropical primary bat cell lines show restricted dengue virus replication
(2017-02)Dengue is the most widespread arboviral disease affecting humans. Bats are recognized carriers of emerging viral zoonoses and have been proposed as dengue reservoirs, since RNA/NS1 and/or antiviral antibodies have been ... -
Unexpected Functional Divergence of Bat Influenza Virus NS1 Proteins
(2018-02-12)Recently, two influenza A virus (FLUAV) genomes were identified in Central and South American bats. These sequences exhibit notable divergence from classical FLUAV counterparts, and functionally, bat FLUAV glycoproteins ...
