Chronic enteroviral meningoencephalitis in a patient on rituximab for the treatment of psoriatic arthritis: A case report and brief literature review

IDCases, 2019
Enteroviruses are RNA viruses within the Picornaviridae family. Enteroviruses derive their name from the way they are typically transmitted via the intestinal tract. They commonly infect millions of people every year and often do not cause severe disease

Aichi Virus Shedding in High Concentrations in Patients with Acute Diarrhea

Emerging Infectious Diseases, 2011
We assessed Aichi virus shedding in patients with gastroenteritis and negative test results for other viral and bacterial infections. High concentrations of up to 1.32 × 1012 RNA copies/g stool were found in 10 (2.0%) of 499 outpatients sampled in ...

Current Understanding of Human Enterovirus D68

Viruses, 2019
Human enterovirus D68 (EV-D68), a member of the species Enterovirus D of the Picornaviridae family, was first isolated in 1962 in the United States. EV-D68 infection was only infrequently reported until an outbreak occurred in 2014 in the US; since then,

Metagenomic detection of a wide variety of viruses from Vietnamese bats

International Journal of Infectious Diseases
Introduction: The species richness of tropical bats is astonishing, such as the diversity of bat-borne viruses. As bats are important reservoirs of zoonotic pathogens, we investigated the viruses found in Vietnamese bats. Methods: Overall, sixty-one bats

Disrupted glycosylphosphatidylinositol anchoring induces ER stress and restricts enterovirus infection.

PLoS Pathogens
Many positive-sense RNA viruses, including viruses from the Picornaviridae, Coronaviridae and Flaviviridae family, exploit endoplasmic reticulum (ER)-derived membrane structures as sites of genome replication.

Volatile Organic Compounds Induced upon Viral Infection in Cell Culture: Uniform Background Study with Use of Viruses from Different Families

Molecules
This study investigates the production of volatile organic compounds (VOCs) in RK-13 cells infected with three equine viruses representing different families: equine arteritis virus (EAV) (Arteriviridae), equine herpesvirus 1 (EHV-1) (Herpesviridae), and
