Abstract

The emergence of highly zoonotic viral infections has propelled bat research forward. The viral outbreaks including Hendra virus, Nipah virus, Marburg virus, Ebola virus, Rabies virus, Middle East respiratory syndrome coronavirus, SARS-CoV and the latest SARS-CoV-2 have been epidemiologically linked to various bat species. Bats possess unique immunological characteristics that allow them to serve as a potential viral reservoir. Bats are also known to protect themselves against viruses and maintain their immunity. Therefore, there is a need for in-depth understanding into bat-virus biology to unravel the major factors contributing to the coexistence and spread of viruses.

耐力的故事：蝙蝠、病毒和免疫动态。

高度人畜共患病病毒感染的出现推动了蝙蝠研究的发展。包括亨德拉病毒、尼帕病毒、马尔堡病毒、埃博拉病毒、狂犬病毒、中东呼吸综合征冠状病毒、SARS-CoV 和最新的 SARS-CoV-2 在内的病毒爆发在流行病学上都与不同种类的蝙蝠有关。蝙蝠具有独特的免疫特性，使其成为潜在的病毒库。众所周知，蝙蝠还能保护自己免受病毒感染并保持免疫力。因此，有必要深入了解蝙蝠-病毒生物学，以揭示导致病毒共存和传播的主要因素。

期刊介绍： ACS Applied Bio Materials is an interdisciplinary journal publishing original research covering all aspects of biomaterials and biointerfaces including and beyond the traditional biosensing, biomedical and therapeutic applications. The journal is devoted to reports of new and original experimental and theoretical research of an applied nature that integrates knowledge in the areas of materials, engineering, physics, bioscience, and chemistry into important bio applications. The journal is specifically interested in work that addresses the relationship between structure and function and assesses the stability and degradation of materials under relevant environmental and biological conditions.
