Severe fever with thrombocytopenia syndrome (SFTS) was formally found as a novel emerging virus infection in rural regions in Henan and Hubei Provinces in Peoples’ Republic of China in 2009 and was reported in 2011 (Ministry of Health of People’s Republic China2010; Yu et al.2011). However...
The mechanism underlying the development of severe illness caused by SFTS bunyavirus (SFTSV) is not yet fully understood. To evaluate the role of the TLR2 receptor pathway in regulating Treg function in the progression of SFTS disease and possible mechanisms, sequential serum samples from 29 ...
SFTS is caused by a tick-borne virus, severe fever with thrombocytopenia syndrome phlebovi- rus (SFTSV)1,4–6, which can also be transmitted between humans occasionally7,8. SFTSV is a member of the Phenuiviridae family in the order Bunyavirales, which was recently created by the ...
a novel Banyangvirus with close genetic relation to Huaiyangshan banyangvirus (BHAV)(former known as Severe fever with thrombocytopenia syndrome virus, SFTSV) and Heartland virus (HRTV), both of which have caused severe disease with fatal casualties in humans. In this study we present the whol...
Severe fever with thrombocytopenia syndrome virus(SFTSV) is a highly pathogenic tick-borne bunyavirus that causes lethal infectious disease and severe fever with thrombocytopenia syndrome(SFTS) in humans. The molecular mechanisms and host cellular factors required for SFTSV infection remain uncharacterized....

The team is investigating the maintenance of the SFTS virus in nature by exploring the relationship of the virus between animals and ticks and the researchers are also working to clarify the pathophysiology of the disease, which will lead to the development of diagnostics, specific treatments and ...
Virus, ticks, thrombocytopeniaRoutes of transmissionSevere Fever with Thrombocytopenia Syndrome (SFTS) is a life-threatening emerging infectious disease caused by the SFTS virus. The aim of this systematic review and meta-analysis was to gain new insights into the routes of transmission to humans and...
SFTS virus (SFTSV)laboratory parameterperson-to-person transmissionrisk factorAn emerging infectious disease, severe fever with thrombocytopenia syndrome (SFTS), was identified to be associated with a novel SFTS virus (SFTSV). Transmission of the disease among humans has been described, but clinical ...
