The Contribution of Neutrophils to the Pathogenesis of RSV Bronchiolitis
Acute viral bronchiolitis causes significant mortality in the developing world, is the number one cause of infant hospitalisation in the developed world, and is associated with the later development of chronic lung diseases such as asthma.

Dendritic cells in viral bronchiolitis
Dendritic cells (DCs) are major antigen-presenting cells that constitute a link between innate and adaptive immune responses, and are critical in the processes of control and elimination of viral infections. On the other hand, there is a large body of data strongly implicating respiratory viruses in morbidity during infancy through the induction of ...

Viral bronchiolitis management in hospitals in the UK [PDF]
Viral bronchiolitis is the leading cause of hospitalisation in infants less than a year old. The United Kingdom (UK) National Institute for Health and Care Excellence (NICE) published a guideline for the management of viral bronchiolitis in June 2015.This study aimed to prospectively survey the management of viral bronchiolitis in hospital Trusts in ...

Toll‐interacting protein polymorphisms in viral bronchiolitis outcomes [PDF]
AbstractBackgroundToll‐interacting protein is a key factor in regulating innate immunity responses via gatekeeping Toll‐like receptors. Genetic variance in innate immunity has been linked with susceptibility to infections. Children with viral bronchiolitis in infancy are at increased risk of later asthma.

Objective: To verify whether the occurrence of acute viral bronchiolitis in the first year of life constitutes a risk factor for asthma at age 6 considering a parental history of asthma. Methods: Cross-sectional study in a cohort of live births.

Genetic Susceptibility to Acute Viral Bronchiolitis [PDF]
Abstract Background Acute viral bronchiolitis is a major cause of infant hospitalizations worldwide. Childhood bronchiolitis is considered a risk factor for asthma, suggesting shared genetic factors and biological pathways. Genetic risk loci may provide new insights into disease pathogenesis.

Despite scientific evidence proving that inhaled β2-adrenergic receptor (β2-AR) agonists can reverse bronchoconstriction in all ages, current guidelines advocate against the use of β2-AR bronchodilators in infants with viral bronchiolitis because ...

Etiology and clinical features of viral bronchiolitis in infancy [PDF]
Bronchiolitis is a common lower respiratory tract infection in infancy. The aim of this review is to present the clinical profile of viral bronchiolitis, the different culprit viruses and the disease severity in relation to the viral etiology.Databases including PubMed and Google Scholar were searched for articles about the clinical features of ...
