Bat Flight and Zoonotic Viruses
Bats are sources of high viral diversity and high-profile zoonotic viruses worldwide. Although apparently not pathogenic in their reservoir hosts, some viruses from bats severely affect other mammals, including humans. Examples include severe acute respiratory syndrome coronaviruses, Ebola and Marburg viruses, and Nipah and Hendra viruses. Factors underlying high viral diversity in bats are the...
متن کاملBat flight
dramatically between cancer types. However, the question of whether these differences represent changes in the frequency of chromothripsis between different cell types or changes in the ability of different cell types to survive chromothripsis remains unclear. Finally, additional work will be required to identify the time at which chromothripsis occurs. The micronucleus model of chromothripsis ...
متن کاملBat flight: aerodynamics, kinematics and flight morphology.
Bats evolved the ability of powered flight more than 50 million years ago. The modern bat is an efficient flyer and recent research on bat flight has revealed many intriguing facts. By using particle image velocimetry to visualize wake vortices, both the magnitude and time-history of aerodynamic forces can be estimated. At most speeds the downstroke generates both lift and thrust, whereas the f...
متن کاملDiscovering novel zoonotic viruses.
From the emergence of Hendra virus and Menangle virus in Australia to the global pandemics of severe acute respiratory syndrome and influenza viruses (both H5N1 and H1N1), there has been a surge of zoonotic virus outbreaks in the last two decades. Although the drivers for virus emergence remain poorly understood, the rate of discovery of new viruses is accelerating. This is due to a combination...
متن کاملPotential for Introduction of Bat-Borne Zoonotic Viruses into the EU: A Review
Bat-borne viruses can pose a serious threat to human health, with examples including Nipah virus (NiV) in Bangladesh and Malaysia, and Marburg virus (MARV) in Africa. To date, significant human outbreaks of such viruses have not been reported in the European Union (EU). However, EU countries have strong historical links with many of the countries where NiV and MARV are present and a correspondi...
