Abstract__ Nipah virus NiV is a highly pathogenic paramyxovirus that causes severe diseases in animals and humans. Endothelial cell EC infection is an established hallmark of NiV infection in vivo. Despite systemic virus spread via the vascular system EC in brain and lung are preferentially infected whereas EC in other organs are less affected. As in vivo we found differences in the infection of EC in cell culture. Only brain-derived primary or immortalized EC were found to be permissive to NiV infection. Using a replication-independent fusion assay we could show that the lack of infection in non-brain EC was due to a lack of receptor expression. The NiV entry receptors ephrinB2 EB2 or ephrinB3 were only expressed in brain endothelia. The finding that EB2 expression in previously non-permissive aortic EC rendered the cells permissive to infection then demonstrated that EB2 is not only necessary but also sufficient to allow .
