Structural Insight into Paramyxovirus and Pneumovirus Entry Inhibition [PDF]
Viruses, 2020 Paramyxoviruses and pneumoviruses infect cells through fusion (F) protein-mediated merger of the viral envelope with target membranes. Members of these families include a range of major human and animal pathogens, such as respiratory syncytial virus (RSV)

Inflammatory responses to acute pneumovirus infection in neonatal mice [PDF]
Virology Journal, 2010 Background The innate immune responses of neonates differ dramatically from those of adults. Here we examine the acute inflammatory responses of neonatal and weanling mice infected with pneumonia virus of mice (PVM), a rodent pathogen (family ...

Antibiotic Therapy and Factors Predicting Prolonged Hospitalization Among Children Under Three Years Diagnosed With Respiratory Syncytial Virus-Associated Lower Respiratory Infection. [PDF]
Immun Inflamm DisABSTRACT Background Respiratory syncytial virus (RSV) is a common cause of lower respiratory infections (LRIs) in infants and young children. Antibiotic overuse remains a significant concern in hospitalized children with RSV‐associated LRIs. This study aimed to investigate the prevalence of antibiotic use and identify predictors of prolonged ...
