Experimental Infection of greater white-toothed Shrews ( <i>Crocidura russula</i> ) with Borna disease virus 1: Insights into Viral Spread and Shedding
2024-07-31
Abstract excerpt
Numbers of human encephalitis cases caused by infection with Borna disease virus 1 (BoDV1) increase continuously in endemic areas. The reservoir host of BoDV1 is the bicoloured white-toothed shrew, albeit few naturally infected individuals of other shrew species have been detected. To establish a reliable experimental reservoir model, 15 greater white-toothed shrews were infected with a shrew-derived BoDV1 isolate...
