About: Reston virus

An Entity of Type: disease, from Named Graph: http://dbpedia.org, within Data Space: dbpedia.org

Reston virus (RESTV) is one of six known viruses within the genus Ebolavirus. Reston virus causes Ebola virus disease in non-human primates; unlike the other five ebolaviruses, it is not known to cause disease in humans, but has caused asymptomatic infections. Reston virus was first described in 1990 as a new "strain" of Ebola virus (EBOV). It is the single member of the species Reston ebolavirus, which is included into the genus Ebolavirus, family Filoviridae, order Mononegavirales. Reston virus is named after Reston, Virginia, US, where the virus was first discovered.

  • Reston virus (RESTV) is one of six known viruses within the genus Ebolavirus. Reston virus causes Ebola virus disease in non-human primates; unlike the other five ebolaviruses, it is not known to cause disease in humans, but has caused asymptomatic infections. Reston virus was first described in 1990 as a new "strain" of Ebola virus (EBOV). It is the single member of the species Reston ebolavirus, which is included into the genus Ebolavirus, family Filoviridae, order Mononegavirales. Reston virus is named after Reston, Virginia, US, where the virus was first discovered. RESTV was discovered in crab-eating macaques from Hazleton Laboratories (now Labcorp Drug Development) in 1989. This attracted significant media attention due to Reston's location in the Washington, DC metro area and the lethality of a closely related Ebola virus. Despite its status as a level-4 organism, Reston virus is non-pathogenic to humans, though hazardous to monkeys; the perception of its lethality was compounded by the monkey's coinfection with Simian hemorrhagic fever virus (SHFV). Despite ongoing research, the determinants for lack of human pathogenicity are yet to be discovered. (en)
  • Virus reston (RESTV) adalah salah satu dari enam virus yang tergolong ke dalam genus Ebolavirus. Virus reston dapat menyebabkan penyakit virus Ebola pada primata selain manusia. Namun, tidak seperti kelima ebolavirus lainnya, virus ini tidak dapat menyebabkan penyakit pada manusia, tetapi hanya mengakibatkan infeksi tanpa gejala. Virus reston pertama kali dideskripsikan pada tahun 1990 sebagai "galur" baru virus Ebola (EBOV). Virus ini sendiri dinamai dari kota , Virginia, Amerika Serikat, yang merupakan tempat penemuan virus ini. RESTV ditemukan pada kera pemakan kepiting dari (sekarang Covance) pada tahun 1989. Penemuan ini menarik perhatian media karena kedekatan Reston dengan Washington, DC, dan juga karena tingkat kematian virus Ebola yang tinggi. Meskipun berstatus sebagai organisme level-4, virus Reston bukanlah patogen bagi manusia, meskipun berbahaya untuk monyet. (in)
  • La specie Reston ebolavirus (sigla: RESTV) secondo la definizione dell'International Committee on Taxonomy of Viruses (ICTV) è un virus incluso nel genere Ebolavirus, che è parte della famiglia Filoviridae, ordine Mononegavirales. Questo virus è stato scoperto durante uno scoppio della febbre emorragica virale delle scimmie nei macachi cinomolgi degli Hazleton Laboratories nel 1989. Dopo l'epidemia iniziale a Reston, da allora è stato trovato in primati non umani in Pennsylvania, Texas e a Siena: tutti questi animali infetti erano stati importati da una struttura nelle Filippine, dove il virus ha anche infettato dei maiali. Nonostante la sua classificazione a organismo con Livello di biosicurezza 4 e la sua apparente patogenicità nelle scimmie, RESTV non ha causato malattie nei tecnici di laboratorio umani esposti. (it)
