Borna disease virus, a newly classified nonsegmented negative-strand RNA virus with international distribution, infects a broad range of warm-blooded animals from birds to primates. Infection causes movement and behavioral disturbances reminiscent of some neuropsychiatric syndromes. The virus has not been clearly linked to any human disease; however, an association between infection with the virus and selected neuropsychiatric disorders has been suggested. We reviewed recent advances in Borna disease virus research, focusing on evidence of infection in humans.
博尔纳病病毒是一种新分类的不分节段的负链RNA病毒,在全球范围内均有分布,可感染从鸟类到灵长类动物等广泛的温血动物。感染会引发运动和行为障碍,使人联想到某些神经精神综合征。该病毒与任何人类疾病之间的联系尚不明确;然而,有人提出该病毒感染与特定神经精神疾病之间存在关联。我们回顾了博尔纳病病毒研究的最新进展,重点关注人类感染的证据。
