Development and Assay of RNA Transcripts of Enterovirus Species A to D, Rhinovirus Species A to C, and Human Parechovirus: Assessment of Assay Sensitivity and Specificity of Real-Time Screening and Typing Methods [PDF]

Journal of Clinical Microbiology, 2012
ABSTRACT Nucleic acid amplification methods such as the PCR have had a major impact on the diagnosis of viral infections, often achieving greater sensitivities and shorter turnaround times than conventional assays and an ability to detect viruses refractory to conventional isolation methods.

LABORATORY DIAGNOSIS AND MANAGEMENT OF ENTEROVIRUS OUTBREAKS

International Journal of Infectious Diseases, 2023
Human enterovirus species A to D and rhinovirus species A to C infect humans, and over 250 serotypes have been reported. Enteroviruses caused a wide range of infections including mild common cold, herpangina and hand, foot and mouth disease (HFMD ...

Multiplexed High-Throughput Serological Assay for Human Enteroviruses

Microorganisms, 2020
Immunological assays detecting antibodies against enteroviruses typically use a single enterovirus serotype as antigen. This limits the ability of such assays to detect antibodies against different enterovirus types and to detect possible type-specific ...

Selective Serotonin Reuptake Inhibitor Fluoxetine Inhibits Replication of Human Enteroviruses B and D by Targeting Viral Protein 2C [PDF]

Antimicrobial Agents and Chemotherapy, 2013
ABSTRACT Although the genus Enterovirus contains many important human pathogens, there is no licensed drug for either the treatment or the prophylaxis of enterovirus infections. We report that fluoxetine (Prozac)—a selective serotonin reuptake inhibitor—inhibits the replication of human enterovirus B (HEV ...

Neonates with acute liver failure have higher overall mortality but similar posttransplant outcomes as older infants

Liver Transplantation, EarlyView., 2022
Abstract Neonatal acute liver failure (ALF) carries a high mortality rate; however, little data exist on its peritransplant hospital course. This project aimed to identify factors associated with outcomes in neonates with ALF using large multicenter databases.

Neutralizing activity of intravenous immune globulin products against enterovirus D68 strains isolated in Japan

BMC Infectious Diseases, 2023
Background Enterovirus D68 (EV-D68), belonging to Enterovirus D, is a unique human enterovirus mainly associated with common respiratory diseases. However, EV-D68 can cause severe respiratory diseases, and EV-D68 endemic is epidemiologically linked to ...

Enterovirus 94, a proposed new serotype in human enterovirus species D

Journal of General Virology, 2007
The genus Enterovirus (family Picornaviridae) contains five species with strains isolated from humans: Human enterovirus A (HEV-A), HEV-B, HEV-C, HEV-D and Poliovirus. In this study, a proposed new serotype of HEV-D was characterized. Four virus strains were isolated from sewage in Egypt and one strain from acute flaccid paralysis cases in the ...

Computational Approach for Predicting Common Epitopes in the VP1 Structural Protein of Enterovirus Serotypes EV-D68, EV-D70, and EV-A71

Journal of Pure and Applied Microbiology, 2021
The three human Enterovirus serotypes D-68, D-70, and A-71, are common pathogens that are transmitted by fecal-oral and aerosol routes. These positive RNA viruses were known to exhibit high levels of genetic diversity and variability.
