Rabies is a zoonotic, fatal and progressive neurological infection caused by rabies virus of
the genus Lyssavirus and family Rhabdoviridae. It affects all warm-blooded animals and the …

Layer V of the entorhinal cortex (EC) receives input from the hippocampus and originates
main entorhinal outputs. The deep-sublayer Vb, immunopositive for the transcription factor …

Connectomic studies have become 'viral', as viral pathogens have been turned into
irreplaceable neuroscience research tools. Highly sensitive viral transneuronal tracing …

The zebrafish is an important model in systems neuroscience but viral tools to dissect the
structure and function of neuronal circuitry are not established. We developed methods for …

Several studies have demonstrated the rabies virus to be a perfect potential vaccine vector
to insert foreign genes into the target genome. For this study, a green fluorescent protein …

Previous studies have indicated that the amino acid at position 333 in the glycoprotein (G) is
closely related to rabies virus (RABV) pathogenicity. However, whether there are other …

The larval zebrafish is a vertebrate model for in vivo monitoring and manipulation of whole-
brain neuronal activities. Tracing its neural circuits still remains challenging. Here we report …

The glycoprotein-gene (G gene)-deleted rabies virus (RV) vector is a powerful tool to
examine the function and structure of neural circuits. We previously reported that the …

Viral vectors that can infect neurons transsynaptically and can strongly express foreign
genes are useful for investigating the organization of neural circuits. We previously …

Nucleoprotein (N) is a key element in rabies virus (RABV) replication. To further investigate
the effect of N on RABV, we manipulated an infectious cDNA clone of the RABV HEP-Flury …
