Abstract:
Ebolavirus (EboV) is a highly pathogenic enveloped virus that causes outbreaks of zoonotic infection in Africa. The clinical symptoms are manifestations of the massive production of pro-inflammatory cytokines in response to infection and in many outbreaks, case fatality rate exceeds 75%. The unpredictable onset, ease of transmission, rapid progression of disease, high mortality and lack of effective vaccine or therapy have created a high level of public concern about EboV. Here we report the properties of a benzylpiperazine adamantane diamide-derived compound identified in a screen for inhibit

Abstract:
Ebola virus (EBOV) is a re-emerging zoonotic virus (it is transmitted between animals and humans) that causes acute hemorrhagic fever and a high fatality rate in humans. First reported in 1976 in the Democratic Republic of the Congo (formerly Zaire), the virus is transmitted between humans through direct contact with body fluids of an infected person, causing fever, weakness, diarrhea, abdominal pain, cramping, nausea and vomiting in those affected. There is neither a licensed vaccine nor an approved treatment for Ebola virus in human patients. The reservoir species for Ebola virus is similarl

Sierra Leone was heavily affected by the West African Ebola virus disease (EVD) epidemic from 2013 to 2016. Ongoing EVD transmission during the epidemic was connected to several factors including unsafe traditional burial practices. This phenomenological qualitative study addressed Kono members' perceived knowledge, attitudes, and beliefs regarding how burial practices influenced EVD transmission. Rosenstock's health belief model provided the framework for the study. The participants purposefully selected from various religions and professions were interviewed individually and in focus group s

Abstract:
Ebola virus (EBOV) causes severe disease in humans characterized by high case fatality rates and significant immune dysfunction. A hallmark of EBOV infection is the formation of viral inclusions in the cytoplasm of infected cells. These inclusions contain the EBOV nucleocapsids and are sites of viral replication and nucleocapsid maturation. Although there is growing evidence that viral inclusions create a protected environment that fosters EBOV gene expression and genome replication, little is known about their role in the host response to infection. The cellular stress response is an antivira

Abstract:
Ebola virus (EBOV) is a zoonotic pathogen which causes a fulminant hemorrhagic fever and results in up to 90% fatality. Despite efforts over the past 38 years, a licensed prophylactic or post-exposure option remains unavailable. Several experimental vaccines have already demonstrated protection from lethal EBOV disease in nonhuman primates (NHPs). However, attempts to translate this research from bench to bedside have been hampered, since the immune responses that correlate with protection against EBOV are not well-defined. Without this information, it is not possible to reliably predict t
