Immunity to human and bovine respiratory syncytial virus

Archives of Virology, 1990
Human and bovine respiratory syncytial viruses resemble each other closely. During annual winter outbreaks, they cause similar respiratory tract disease in infants and calves. The disease is most severe in children and calves between 1 and 3 months old, when maternal antibodies against the virus are usually present.

Update on human respiratory syncytial virus

Clinical Microbiology Newsletter, 2001
Abstract Since its initial discovery 50 years ago, RSV has continued to generate strong and sustained efforts in the scientific and health care communities to develop modalities for prevention and treatment. Further studies that define the molecular evolution of RSV and the mechanisms by which it evades the immune response should facilitate the ...

Human respiratory syncytial virus and Th1 chemokines.

La Clinica terapeutica, 2015
The importance of the Type-1 helper (Th1) chemokines in RSV (respiratory syncytial virus) infection has been shown by several studies, in animal models, and in humans. The production of Th1 chemokines within the lower respiratory tract has been shown in patients with RSV bronchiolitis, particularly chemokine (C-X-C motif) ligand (CXCL)10/interferon-γ ...

Comparison of the seroprevalence of human metapneumovirus and human respiratory syncytial virus

Journal of Medical Virology, 2003
AbstractHuman metapneumovirus (hMPV) is a virus that induces human respiratory syncytial virus (hRSV)‐like illnesses, ranging from upper respiratory tract infection to severe bronchiolitis and pneumonia. The 100 serum samples from children aged 1 month to 5 years were tested for the presence of hMPV and hRSV antibodies using an indirect ...

Purification of human respiratory syncytial virus fusion glycoprotein

Protein Expression and Purification, 2012
Human respiratory syncytial virus (RSV) fusion glycoprotein (F) elicits neutralizing antibodies to RSV and has therefore attracted much attention as a suitable candidate antigen in the development of gene-based vaccines against RSV infections. However, a major obstacle in vaccine development has been the problem of antigen purification. To address this

Respiratory Syncytial Virus and Human Metapneumovirus

2015
Respiratory syncytial virus (RSV) is one of the most vulnerable pathogens to environmental changes. RSV is the major cause of lower respiratory tract illnesses such as bronchiolitis, tracheobronchitis, and pneumonia among infants and young children worldwide.

Respiratory syncytial virus infections in human beings and in cattle

Journal of Infection, 1994
Respiratory syncytial virus (RSV) causes yearly outbreaks of respiratory disease in human beings and cattle all over the world. Most severe human respiratory syncytial virus (HRSV)-associated disease is observed in children less than 1 year of age while most severe bovine respiratory syncytial virus (BRSV)-associated disease is observed in calves less ...

Antigenic and genetic variation in human respiratory syncytial virus

Pediatric Infectious Disease Journal, 2004
Human respiratory syncytial virus (HRSV) is a leading cause of serious pediatric respiratory disease worldwide. Natural infection provides only partial protection as repeat infections occur throughout life. A brief review of the extent of antigenic and genetic variation observed in HRSV clinical isolates is presented.Recent experimental research is ...

The distinguishing features of human metapneumovirus and respiratory syncytial virus

Reviews in Medical Virology, 2010
AbstractAcute respiratory tract infections (RTIs) are a leading cause of morbidity and mortality worldwide. Human Metapneumovirus (hMPV) is a member of the Metapneumovirus genus within the Pneumovirinae subfamily of the Paramyxoviridae family. Though hMPV was only discovered in 2001, a large body of work has already shown that it is the aetiologic ...

[Illnesses by the human respiratory syncytial virus].

Medizinische Monatsschrift fur Pharmazeuten, 2006
Human respiratory syncytial virus (HRSV) is a single-stranded, enveloped RNA virus of the Paramyxoviridae family. Worldwide, HRSV represents the leading cause of respiratory tract infections in infants and young children. Approximately up to 70% of infants are infected during their first year of life.
