Antibodies are necessary for rVSV/ZEBOV-GP–mediated protection against lethal Ebola virus challenge in nonhuman primates

TL;DR: It is suggested that antibodies play a critical role in rVSV-mediated protection against ZEBOV, and depletion of CD4+ T cells during vaccination caused a complete loss of glycoprotein-specific antibodies and abrogated vaccine protection.
Journal ArticleDOI

Protective Efficacy of Neutralizing Monoclonal Antibodies in a Nonhuman Primate Model of Ebola Hemorrhagic Fever

TL;DR: The results indicate that EBOV neutralizing antibodies, particularly in combination with other therapeutic strategies, might be beneficial in reducing viral loads and prolonging disease progression during EHF.
Journal ArticleDOI

Clinical Outcome of Henipavirus Infection in Hamsters Is Determined by the Route and Dose of Infection

TL;DR: Novel information is revealed on the development and progression of NiV and HeV clinical disease, a mechanism for the differences in transmission observed between NiV or HeV outbreaks is provided, and specific cytokines and chemokines that serve as important targets for treatment are identified.
Journal ArticleDOI

A Novel Model of Lethal Hendra Virus Infection in African Green Monkeys and the Effectiveness of Ribavirin Treatment

TL;DR: This work examines the pathogenesis of HeV in the African green monkey (AGM) following intratracheal inoculation and examines the antiviral effect of ribavirin in a cohort of nine AGMs before or after exposure to HeV, demonstrating that, while Ribavirin may have some antiviral activity against the henipaviruses, its use as an effective standalone therapy for HeV infection is questionable.
