2009-11-09ZeitschriftenartikelA novel herpesvirus in the sanctuary chimpanzees on Ngamba Island in Uganda Mugisha, Lawrence; Leendertz, Fabian; Opuda-Asibo, John; Olobo, J.O.; Ehlers, BernhardBackground: Recent studies in non-human primates have led to the discovery of novel primate herpesviruses. In order to get more information on herpesvirus infections in apes, we studied wild born captive chimpanzees. ...

2013-10-21ZeitschriftenartikelEvaluation of Non-Invasive Biological Samples to Monitor Staphylococcus aureus Colonization in Great Apes and Lemurs Schaumburg, Frieder; Mugisha, Lawrence; Kappeller, Peter; Fichtel, Claudia; Köck, Robin; Köndgen, Sophie; Becker, Karsten; Boesch, Christophe; Peters, Georg; Leendertz, FabianIntroduction: Reintroduction of endangered animals as part of conservational programs bears the risk of importing human pathogens from the sanctuary to the natural habitat. One bacterial pathogen that serves as a model ...

2011-08-10ZeitschriftenartikelNovel adenoviruses in wild primates: a high level of genetic diversity and evidence of zoonotic transmissions. Wevers, Diana; Metzger, Sonja; Babweteera, Fred; Bieberbach, Marc; Boesch, Christophe; Cameron, Kenneth; Couacy-Hymann, Emmanuel; Cranfield, Mike; Gray, Maryke; Harris, Laurie A.; Head, Josephine; Jeffery, Kathryn; Knauf, Sascha; Lankester, Felix; Leendertz, Siv Aina J.; Lonsdorf, Elizabeth; Mugisha, Lawrence; Nitsche, Andreas; Reed, Patricia; Robbins, Martha; Travis, Dominic A.; Zommers, Zinta; Leendertz, Fabian; Ehlers, BernhardAdenoviruses (AdVs) broadly infect vertebrate hosts, including a variety of nonhuman primates (NHPs). In the present study, we identified AdVs in NHPs living in their natural habitats, and through the combination of ...

2009-06-24ZeitschriftenartikelNovel cytomegaloviruses in free-ranging and captive great apes: phylogenetic evidence for bidirectional horizontal transmission Leendertz, Fabian; Deckers, Merlin; Schempp, Werner; Lankester, Felix; Boesch, Christophe; Mugisha, Lawrence; Dolan, Aidan; Gatherer, Derek; McGeoch, Duncan J.; Ehlers, BernhardWild great apes often suffer from diseases of unknown aetiology. This is among the causes of population declines. Because human cytomegalovirus (HCMV) is an important pathogen, especially in immunocompromised individuals, ...
