Progressive liver calcifications in neonatal coxsackievirus infection

Pediatric Radiology, 2000
Coxsackievirus group B can cause a severe systemic disease in the perinatal period. Severe manifestations like meningitis, encephalitis, hepatitis, and myocarditis have been previously reported. A case of a twin neonate infected by coxsackievirus group B is described, who developed progressive extensive hepatic calcifications demonstrated by ultrasound

Myelitis due to coxsackievirus B infection

Neurology, 1995
Enteroviruses, including polioviruses, coxsackieviruses A and B, echoviruses, and more recently discovered enteroviruses, are neurotropic, but there are only a few cases of flaccid paralysis reported in association with coxsackievirus. We present a 12-year-old girl with an unusual clinical presentation of this rare complication.

Infection of Hypercholesterolemic Mice with Coxsackievirus B

Journal of Infectious Diseases, 1976
Adult male mice were made hypercholesterolemic by a diet high in cholesterol, cholic acid, animal fat, and sucrose. After three months on this diet, animals were infected with 5 X 10(9) plaque-forming units of coxsackievirus B5. Control groups consisted of uninfected hypercholesterolemic mice and infected mice maintained on a standard laboratory diet ...

Coxsackievirus B4 infection of spinal sympathetic ganglion

Experientia, 1981
Coxsackievirus B4 infection of a spinal sympathetic ganglion of a squirrel monkey is described. Chromatolysis and neuronophagia were extensive. It is suggested that such viral sympathetic ganglial infections may be responsible for dysfunction of organ systems.

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.

Colchicine aggravates coxsackievirus B3 infection in mice

International Journal of Cardiology, 2016
There is a clinical need for immunosuppressive therapy that can treat myocarditis patients in the presence of an active viral infection. In this study we therefore investigated the effects of colchicine, an immunosuppressive drug which has been used successfully as treatment for pericarditis patients, in a mouse model of coxsackievirus B3(CVB3)-induced

Pathophysiological aspects of coxsackievirus B intestinal infection

The American Journal of Clinical Nutrition, 1977
Our findings reveal that intestinal infection with coxsackie B5 results in decreased intestinal epithelial cell division in association with an increase in carbohydrate (glucose) and amino acid (leucine) absorption in the small intestine. These findings are contrasted with those occurring during Salmonella infection, which results in increased ...

Fatal Coxsackievirus B4 Infection in a Neonate

Southern Medical Journal, 1985
We reported a fatal coxsackievirus B4 infection in a neonate. The CSF WBC was elevated, with polymorphonuclear leukocytes predominating initially and lymphocytes predominating later in the illness. Autopsy findings included inflammation of the heart and liver.

Persistent infection of mouse fibroblasts with coxsackievirus

Archives of Virology, 1984
Infection of fibroblast cell lines initiated from BALB/c or NFR mice with coxsackievirus B3 (CBV-3) or B4 (CBV-4) resulted in infections which persisted for a limited number of subpassages of the infected cells in most cases, but for over a year in one case.

Pathogenesis of Coxsackievirus B Infections

2014
Regarding the pathogenesis of enteroviral heart disease there has been uncertainty whether viral cytotoxicity or immune-mediated processes are crucial for organ pathology during acute and persistent heart muscle infection. This chapter provides experimental evidence for the decisive role of virus replication in the induction and maintenance of chronic ...
