A mouse-adapted Yezo virus model for antiviral testing in immunocompetent mice
2026-03-04
Abstract excerpt
Emerging tick-borne orthonairoviruses pose a growing public health threat, yet few animal models fully recapitulate human disease. Here, we report the development of a mouse-adapted Yezo virus (MA-YEZV) strain that causes lethal infection in immunocompetent mice, mirroring key clinical features of human infection, including thrombocytopenia, leukopenia, and severe liver injury. Serial passaging of YEZV in C57BL/6J...
