ABSTRACT Background Nucleic acid amplification tests (NAATs) for human adenoviruses (HAdVs) causing respiratory infections usually target the hexon gene. However, new HAdV types with substantial variations in the hexon gene may not be detected. Thus, we focus on NAATs based on a conserved region in the penton gene to detect all HAdV types causing ...

Cell-Mediated Responses to Human Metapneumovirus Infection
Viruses are the most common cause of acute respiratory tract infections (ARTI). Human metapneumovirus (hMPV) frequently causes viral pneumonia which can become life-threatening if the virus spreads to the lungs. Even though hMPV was only isolated in 2001,

ABSTRACT Background Hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT) in solid organ transplant recipients has been reported in adults. However, data on children are scarce. We report a case of an allogeneic HSCT in a 14‐year‐old girl to treat idiopathic very severe aplastic anemia (SAA). Case Presentation The girl developed end‐stage renal disease at the

Metapneumovirus and its place in childhood [PDF]
Human metapneumovirus (hMPV) was recently identified as a cause of acute upper and lower respiratory tract infection in children and adults. The epidemiology is similar to that exhibited by respiratory syncytial virus, with most episodes occurring during the winter months. The virus likely has a worldwide distribution.

Consensus and variations in cell line specificity among human metapneumovirus strains
Human metapneumovirus (HMPV) has been a notable etiological agent of acute respiratory infection in humans, but it was not discovered until 2001, because HMPV replicates only in a limited number of cell lines and the cytopathic effect (CPE) is often mild.
