13. Bufotenine is able to block rabies virus infection in BHK-21 cells
Background Rabies is a fatal zoonotic neglected disease that occurs in more than 150 countries, and kills more than 55.000 people every year. It is caused by an enveloped single stranded RNA virus that affects the central nervous system, through an infection initiated by the muscular nicotinic acetylcholine receptor, according to many authors. Alkaloids, s

14. Kinetics of rabies antibodies as a strategy for canine active immunization
Background Rabies, a zoonosis found throughout the globe, is caused by a virus of the Lyssavirus genus. The disease is transmitted to humans through the inoculation of the virus present in the saliva of infected mammals. Since its prognosis is usually fatal for humans, nationwide public campaigns to vaccinate dogs and cats against rabies aim to break the e

15. Hematologic profile of hematophagous Desmodus rotundus bats before and after experimental infection with rabies virus
Introduction Hematophagous Desmodus rotundus bats play an important role in the rabies lifecycle. This study describes the hematological profile of these bats before and after experimental infection with rabies virus. Methods Cells counts were performed in a Neubauer chamber. Results The average values of erythrocytes and leucocytes counts in blood befo

16. Multiple lesions by vampire bat bites in a patient in Niterói, Brazil - Case report
Over the last few centuries, the expansion of urbanization brought bats closer to urbanized areas, increasing the risk of accidents by bat bites. The morphology of bat bites can be varied, usually having an elliptical shape, about 0.5 cm along its greatest length, and the characteristic corkscrew bite pattern. The authors present the case of a patient who wa

17. Experimental infection of the bat tick Carios fonsecai (Acari: Ixodidae) with the rabies virus
Introduction This study assessed the viability of the rabies virus in the argasid tick Carios fonsecai following experimental infection. Methods The mouse inoculation test (MIT), fluorescent antibody test (FAT) and polymerase chain reaction (PCR) were used. The rabies virus was administered to ticks via the intra-coelomic route, and the ticks were sacrifi

18. Medium-term cryopreservation of rabies virus samples
Introduction The cryopreservation of rabies virus has been described in detail in the literature. To date, little information is available on the use of cryoprotective agents for cold preservation of this virus, and the available data focus only on short-term virus preservation. In this study, we investigated the medium-term cryopreservation of samples of r

19. In vitro and in vivo inhibition of rabies virus replication by RNA interference
Rabies is a zoonotic disease that affects all mammals and leads to more than 55,000 human deaths every year, caused by rabies virus (RABV) (Mononegavirales: Rhabdoviridae: Lyssavirus). Currently, human rabies treatment is based on the Milwaukee Protocol which consists on the induction of coma and massive antiviral therapy. The aim of this study was to assess

20. Comparison of a modified shell vial culture procedure with conventional mouse inoculation for rabies virus isolation
Rabies is a neurotropic disease that is often lethal. The early diagnosis of rabies infection is important and requires methods that allow for the isolation of the virus from animals and humans. The present study compared a modified shell vial (MSV) procedure using 24-well tissue culture plates with the mouse inoculation test (MIT), which is considered the g

21. Spontaneous pneumomediastinum due to paralytic rabies
Rabies is a fatal disease resulting from rabies virus infection, causing severe neurological symptoms and ultimately death by destroying the nervous system. In general, a patient tends to see a neurologist or an infectious diseases physician, with very common and typical discipline-related signs and symptoms, such as hydrophobia, aerophobia, and mental disor

22. Epidemiologic study of rabies virus in wild mammals from a release area, North coast of São Paulo State, Brazil. / Estudo epidemiológico do vírus da raiva em mamíferos silvestres provenientes de área de soltura no litoral Norte do Estado de São Paulo, Brasil.
A crescente importância do ciclo silvestre da raiva envolvendo morcegos e mamíferos terrestres demonstra a importância do estudo da epidemiologia do vírus da raiva nessas espécies. Foram estudadas amostras provenientes de diversas espécies de animais silvestres terrestres procedentes de uma área de Mata Atlântica nativa no litoral Norte do Estado de

23. Suplementação nutricional com probiótico com ou sem adição de zinco na produção de anticorpos séricos contra o vírus rábico em ovinos vacinados contra raiva / Nutritional supplementation with probiotics with or without added zinc on production of sericos antibodies against the virus rabico in ovine vaccinated against rabies
Esse estudo avaliou o efeito da suplementação do probiótico com ou sem zinco (Zn), adicionado à mistura mineral, na produção de anticorpos séricos contra o vírus rábico em ovinos vacinados com uma única dose de vacina. Quarenta e cinco ovinos machos, mestiços Santa Inês, com idade de 6 meses foram divididos aleatoriamente em 3 grupos (15 ovinos/g

24. Desmodus rotundus and Artibeus spp. bats might present distinct rabies virus lineages
In Brazil, bats have been assigned an increasing importance in public health as they are important rabies reservoirs. Phylogenetic studies have shown that rabies virus (RABV) strains from frugivorous bats Artibeus spp. are closely associated to those from the vampire bat Desmodus rotundus, but little is known about the molecular diversity of RABV in Artibeus
