Summaries for West Nile Encephalitis

About this section
Disease Ontology : 12 A viral infectious disease that results in inflammation located in brain, has material basis in West Nile virus, which is transmitted by Culex, transmitted by Aedes, and transmitted by Anopheles species of mosquitoes. The infection has symptom high fever, has symptom headache, has symptom neck stiffness, has symptom stupor, has symptom disorientation, has symptom coma, has symptom tremors, has symptom convulsions, has symptom muscle weakness, has symptom vision loss, has symptom numbness, and has symptom paralysis.

MalaCards based summary : West Nile Encephalitis, also known as west nile fever, is related to west nile virus infection and meningoencephalitis. An important gene associated with West Nile Encephalitis is CHKA (Choline Kinase Alpha), and among its related pathways/superpathways are Innate Immune System and Cytokine Signaling in Immune system. The drugs Ribavirin and Glycine have been mentioned in the context of this disorder. Affiliated tissues include brain, kidney and testes, and related phenotypes are hematopoietic system and immune system
