Probenecid Inhibits Human Metapneumovirus (HMPV) Replication In Vitro and in BALB/c Mice

Viruses
Human metapneumovirus (HMPV) is an important cause of acute respiratory tract infection and causes significant morbidity and mortality. There is no specific antiviral drug to treat HMPV or vaccine to prevent HMPV.

Characteristics and Risk Factors Associated With Hospitalization and Severe Disease in Patients Aged ≥ 60 Years With Human Metapneumovirus Infection Over Three Consecutive Seasons (2021–2024) in Valladolid, Spain. The VALLAVIRUS Study

Influenza and Other Respiratory Viruses, Volume 20, Issue 7, July 2026.
ABSTRACT Background Human metapneumovirus (hMPV) is a respiratory pathogen often underestimated in the elderly. Although studies suggest it causes around 10% of respiratory hospitalizations in the United States, national and local data remain scarce.

Human metapneumovirus in paediatric patients [PDF]

Clinical Microbiology and Infection, 2006
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).

Incidence, Complications, and Quality of Life in Adults ≥ 60 Years Old With Laboratory‐Confirmed RSV Infections Attended in Primary Care and in Hospitals: A Study Over Three Seasons in Valladolid, Spain

Influenza and Other Respiratory Viruses, Volume 20, Issue 7, July 2026.
ABSTRACT Background Respiratory syncytial virus (RSV) infection in adults ≥ 60 years significantly affects health, particularly in those with comorbidities. Despite evidence on disease burden, data on quality of life (QoL) and complications after infection remain scarce.

Diversity Patterns of Domestic Herbivore Viruses in China Reveal Transmission Dynamics with Disease Management Implications

Advanced Science, Volume 13, Issue 32, 9 June 2026.
This study performs pan‐viromic profiling of 14,529 samples from 5,710 domestic herbivores across five Chinese provinces, establishing the DhCN‐Virome (1,085,360 viral metagenomes). It reveals species/sample‐specific viromic signatures and cross‐species transmission dynamics, aiding unified disease control.
