Human Metapneumovirus Infections in Children

Emerging Infectious Diseases, 2008
Human metapneumovirus (hMPV) is an important cause of lower respiratory tract infections in hospitalized children, but the age-related incidence and effect of hMPV in unselected children in the community have not been evaluated.

Human Metapneumovirus

Microbiology Spectrum, 2013
ABSTRACT Human metapneumovirus (HMPV), a paramyxovirus identified in 2001, is a leading cause of respiratory tract infections in both children and adults. Seroprevalence studies demonstrate that the primary infection occurs before the age of 5 years, and humans are reinfected throughout life. The four subgroups of HMPV occur with year-to-year

Human Metapneumovirus

Clinics in Laboratory Medicine, 2010
Respiratory tract infections (RTI) are the leading cause of death in low-income countries and the second leading cause of death worldwide in children less than 5 years old. Most RTI are viral. Human metapneumovirus (hMPV) was discovered in 2001 in routine viral cultures of respiratory specimens from children with RTI and has been implicated as a common

Neutralising antibodies against human metapneumovirus.

The Lancet Microbe, 2023
Human metapneumovirus (hMPV) is one of the leading causes of respiratory infection. Since its discovery in 2001, no specific antiviral or vaccine has been available in contrast to its closely related family member human respiratory syncytial virus (hRSV).

Conserved allosteric inhibitory site on the respiratory syncytial virus and human metapneumovirus RNA-dependent RNA polymerases

Communications Biology, 2023
A conserved allosteric site identified on the L polymerase proteins of RSV and HMPV can be targeted by a dual-specificity, non-nucleoside inhibitor that acts by inhibiting conformational changes necessary for RNA synthesis initiation and elongation ...
