The neuraminidase of measles virus
Biochemical and Biophysical Research Communications, 1969The agent of measles (rubeola) has been assumed to be a paramyxovirus on the basis of its electron microscopic appearance, its size, its sensitivity to ether and detergents, and the presence of hemagglutinin in the viral envelope. Thus far, however, the one attribute common to myxoviruses, namely neuraminidase, has not been described for measles virus.

Structure of the measles virus hemagglutinin [PDF]
Nature Structural & Molecular Biology, 2007 Measles virus is a highly pathogenic virus that infects roughly 20 million people per year. We report here the crystal structure of the measles virus hemagglutinin, the surface glycoprotein responsible for the binding of measles virus to its host cell receptors.

ISOLATION OF INFECTIOUS MEASLES VIRUS IN MEASLES ENCEPHALITIS
The Lancet, 1972Abstract A 40-year-old man developed encephalitis 3 days after onset of acute measles. He died 6 weeks later. Histopathological findings were consistent with late type of post-infectious measles encephalitis. Direct inoculation of a homogenate of fresh brain tissue obtained at necropsy into susceptible tissue cultures produced no infectious virus ...

Measles virus is an epidemic disease with a worldwide distribution. Since the development of the live attenuated vaccine, the incidence of reported measles cases has declined by greater than 99% in the United States. Measles causes a systemic illness manifested by a characteristic prodrome and pathognomonic rash. Although usually a self-limited disease,

Molecular Epidemiology of Measles Virus
Seminars in Virology, 1995Genetic characterization of wild-type measles viruses provides a means to study the transmission pathways of the virus and is an essential component of laboratory-based surveillance. Laboratory-based surveillance for measles and rubella, including genetic characterization of wild-type viruses, is performed throughout the world by the WHO Measles and ...

Measles Virus-Induced Immunosuppression
2008Immunosuppression is the major cause of infant death associated with acute measles and therefore of substantial clinical importance. Major hallmarks of this generalized modulation of immune functions are (1) lymphopenia, (2) a prolonged cytokine imbalance consistent with suppression of cellular immunity to secondary infections, and (3) silencing of ...

Immunosuppression by Measles Virus
1989The ability of measles virus to alter an expected immune (adaptive) response was first recognized by Clements von Pirquet in 1908. He observed that chil dren who were tuberculin positive before contracting acute measles virus infection failed to mount specific skin responses to tuberculin during measles.

Summary The isolation and propagation of the agents recovered from patients with measles were carried out in 3 different tissue culture systems: human amniotic membrane, human kidney, and monkey kidney cultures. Human amniotic membrane tissue was found as suitable for isolation and propagation of measles virus as was human
