Structure and immunogenicity of pre-fusion-stabilized human metapneumovirus F glycoprotein
An efficient vaccine for human metapneumovirus (hMPV) will likely rely on neutralizing antibodies against the fusion protein (F). Here, the authors determine the crystal structure of pre-fusion-stabilized hMPV F and identify a dense glycan shield that ...

Interim Update on Reactive Infectious Mucocutaneous Eruption (RIME)
ABSTRACT Reactive infectious mucocutaneous eruption (RIME), a term describing blistering skin and mucosal lesions, is a term coined by a group of Pediatric Dermatology Research Alliance (PeDRA) researchers and first published in 2021. Since that time, the literature has grown with reports of diverse infectious triggers, management strategies, and ...

Novel insights into the host cell glycan binding profile of human metapneumovirus [PDF]
Numerous viruses have been found to exploit glycoconjugates expressed on human cells as their initial attachment factor for viral entry and infection. The virus-cell glycointeractome, when characterized, may serve as a template for antiviral drug design.

Short report: human metapneumovirus in children with influenza-like illness in Yucatan, Mexico
The present study suggests that human metapneumovirus (hMPV) is an important cause of community acquired respiratory infections in children. We report the detection of hMPV in a pediatric population with influenza-like illness in the subtropical area of ...

COVID‐19 threatens endangered mountain gorilla populations due to close human contact. A cross‐sectional study (n = 576) in communities around Bwindi–Mgahinga Conservation Area found 8.0% prevalence of SARS‐CoV2. Frequent handwashing was a predictor for reduced prevalence of SARS‐CoV2. Strengthening prevention measures is critical to limit transmission

Human metapneumovirus in paediatric patients [PDF]
Acute respiratory tract infections (ARTIs) are a leading cause of morbidity and mortality in children worldwide, but the aetiology of many ARTIs is still unknown. In 2001, researchers in The Netherlands reported the discovery of a previously unidentified pathogen called human metapneumovirus (hMPV).
