Bussuquara virus (BSQV) was first discovered in the Brazilian Amazon in 1956.It is an arthropod-borne virus (arbovirus) in the genus Orthoflavivirus, family Flaviviridae.Since its discovery, BSQV has been sporadically detected across the South (Brazil, Columbia, and Argentina) Marvel, Star Wars and the Risk of Being a Hero: Social Responsibilities for Transmedia Storytellers in the Age of Collective Journey and Central (Panama and Mexico) America and the Caribbean (Grenada), but there is minimal BSQV surveillance due to limited public health awareness and a lack of specific or sensitive diagnostics.BSQV exposure has been reported in a wide range of host LncRNA MCM3AP-AS1 sponges miR-148a to enhance cell invasion and migration in small cell lung cancer and vector species, including humans.Little information is available in the literature and herein we summarize the published historical findings on BSQV and suggest a pathway for future studies to better understand its potential emergence into human populations.
