Genetics of coxsackievirus B3 cardiovirulence

European Heart Journal, 1995
The human enteroviruses, especially the coxsackie B viruses, have been established as aetiologic agents of human inflammatory heart disease, a condition which may lead to dilated cardiomyopathy and heart failure. It is clear from murine models of coxsackievirus B3-induced inflammatory heart disease that not all strains of the virus are cardiovirulent ...

COXSACKIEVIRUS B3 IN HUMAN MILK

The Pediatric Infectious Disease Journal, 2006
Coxsackievirus B3 can cause severe neonatal disease with high mortality. We present the first report of detection of coxsackievirus B3 in the mothers' milk of 2 severely infected neonates by culture and reverse transcriptase-polymerase chain reaction. Reverse transcriptase-polymerase chain reaction is a rapid and sensitive tool to detect coxsackievirus

Coxsackievirus B4 Myocarditis in an Orangutan

Veterinary Pathology, 1999
A 37-year-old female orangutan died at the zoological garden. Autopsy examination demonstrated severe coxsackievirus B4 myocarditis immunohistochemically as a cause of the death. Apoptosis of the cardiac muscle cells was observed using the TdT-mediated dUTP-biotin nick endo labeling method and was considered to play a role in the myocarditis ...

Autoimmunity in Coxsackievirus Infection

2008
Abstract Viral infections frequently result in the production of autoantibodies. In most cases, these autoantibodies are low-affinity IgMs that exhibit extensive cross-reactions. Sometimes these virus-triggered immune responses progress to a pathogenic autoimmunity to form autoimmune disease.

FATAL COXSACKIEVIRUS A16 INFECTION

The Pediatric Infectious Disease Journal, 2004
A 15-month-old boy presenting with hand, foot and mouth disease died of myocarditis and intractable shock caused by coxsackievirus A16 infection. It is apparent that coxsackievirus A16 infection is not always a benign infection.

Enteric resistance and coxsackievirus B

The American Journal of Clinical Nutrition, 1977
Sidney Kibrick,4 M.D., Ph.D. and Roger M. Loria, Ph.D.Although the oro- and nasopharynx serveas portals of entry for many different vi-nuses, the number of these agents that reachthe gut and initiate primary infection at thissite is limited. Many swallowed viruses areprobably inactivated by the acidic and pro-teolytic secretions of the stomach that ...

Characterization of cross-reactivity of coxsackievirus A2 VP1-specific polyclonal antibodies with enterovirus A71, coxsackievirus A16, and coxsackievirus A6

Virology
Coxsackievirus A2 (CVA2) is associated with multiple diseases in children. Currently, there is limited research on immunological detection methods for CVA2. Herein, the VP1 gene of CVA2 strain 201711, belonging to cluster 2 within genotype D, was analyzed.

Maternal and Neonatal Infection with Coxsackievirus

Obstetrics & Gynecology, 1980
Evidence is growing that relates maternal coxsackievirus infection to increased neonatal mortality and an increase of congenital anomalies. Four cases of fulminant perinatal coxsackievirus infections that were fatal to the newborns are presented. Coxsackievirus infections in pregnancy are usually either subclinical or produce minimal symptoms in the ...

Coxsackievirus experimental heart diseases

Frontiers in Bioscience, 2003
Many microorganisms, particularly viruses, can cause myocarditis, an inflammatory disease of the heart. The frequency of and major factors that contribute to this disease, including a pronounced gender (male) bias, age and genetic background parameters are discussed, along with signs and symptoms of disease in infants to adults.

Interaction of coxsackievirus B3 with the full length coxsackievirus-adenovirus receptor.

Nature structural biology, 2001
Group B coxsackieviruses (CVB) utilize the coxsackievirus-adenovirus receptor (CAR) to recognize host cells. CAR is a membrane protein with two Ig-like extracellular domains (D1 and D2), a transmembrane domain and a cytoplasmic domain. The three-dimensional structure of coxsackievirus B3 (CVB3) in complex with full length human CAR and also with the ...
