Innate Immune Evasion by Human Respiratory Syncytial Virus [PDF]
Frontiers in Microbiology, 2022 Respiratory syncytial virus (RSV) is the leading cause of severe respiratory infection in young children. Nearly all individuals become infected in their early childhood, and reinfections with RSV are common throughout life. Primary infection with RSV is

Bacterial and Viral Coinfections with the Human Respiratory Syncytial Virus [PDF]
Microorganisms, 2021 The human respiratory syncytial virus (hRSV) is one of the leading causes of acute lower respiratory tract infections in children under five years old. Notably, hRSV infections can give way to pneumonia and predispose to other respiratory complications ...

Human Respiratory Syncytial Virus: Infection and Pathology [PDF]
Seminars in Respiratory and Critical Care Medicine, 2016 The human respiratory syncytial virus (hRSV) is by far the major cause of acute lower respiratory tract infections (ALRTIs) worldwide in infants and children younger than 2 years. The overwhelming number of hospitalizations due to hRSV-induced ALRTI each

Human Metapneumovirus in Severe Respiratory Syncytial Virus Bronchiolitis
Emerging Infectious Diseases, 2003 Reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction was used to detect segments of the M (matrix), N (nucleoprotein), and F (fusion) genes of human metapneumovirus in bronchoalveolar fluid from 30 infants with severe respiratory syncytial virus bronchiolitis.

Biology of human respiratory syncytial virus: Current perspectives in immune response and mechanisms against the virus [PDF]
Virus ResearchHuman respiratory syncytial virus (hRSV) remains a leading cause of morbidity and mortality in infants, young children, and older adults. hRSV infection's limited treatment and vaccine options significantly increase bronchiolitis' morbidity rates.
