Bats and coronaviruses

A Banerjee, K Kulcsar, V Misra, M Frieman, K Mossman - Viruses, 2019 - mdpi.com
Bats are speculated to be reservoirs of several emerging viruses including coronaviruses (CoVs)
that cause serious disease in humans and agricultural animals. These include CoVs …

Novel insights into immune systems of bats

A Banerjee, ML Baker, K Kulcsar, V Misra… - Frontiers in …, 2020 - frontiersin.org

Unraveling the zoonotic origin and transmission of SARS-CoV-2

A Banerjee, AC Doxey, K Mossman, AT Irving - Trends in ecology & …, 2021 - cell.com
The origin and zoonotic transmission route of SARS-CoV-2 remain speculative. We discuss
scenarios for the zoonotic emergence of SARS-CoV-2, and also explore the missing …

Lack of inflammatory gene expression in bats: a unique role for a transcription repressor

A Banerjee, N Rapin, T Bollinger, V Misra - Scientific reports, 2017 - nature.com
In recent years viruses similar to those that appear to cause no overt disease in bats have
spilled-over to humans and other species causing serious disease. Since pathology in such …

[HTML][HTML] BCG vaccination provides protection against IAV but not SARS-CoV-2

…, SJ Moorlag, P Debisarun, K Mossman, A Banerjee… - Cell Reports, 2022 - cell.com
