Pharmacological management of human respiratory syncytial virus infection

Expert Opinion on Pharmacotherapy, 2020
Human respiratory syncytial virus (hRSV) is the primary viral cause of respiratory diseases, leading to bronchiolitis and pneumonia in vulnerable populations. The only current treatment against this virus is palliative, and no efficient and specific vaccine against this pathogen is available.The authors describe the disease symptoms caused by hRSV, the

Respiratory syncytial virus interaction with human airway epithelium

Trends in Microbiology, 2013
Although respiratory syncytial virus (RSV) is a major human respiratory pathogen, our knowledge of how it causes disease in humans is limited. Airway epithelial cells are the primary targets of RSV infection in vivo, so the generation and exploitation of RSV infection models based on morphologically and physiologically authentic well-differentiated ...

HUMAN RESPIRATORY SYNCYTIAL VIRUS

2023
Human Respiratory Syncytial Virus (RSV) has a significant role in the development of newborns' and children's' respiratory tract illnesses. It causes serious lower respiratory tract infections in newborns and young children. RSV causes widespread outbreaks of illness each year during the winter season. in the winter months of November through March RSV

Human Respiratory Syncytial Virus: An Introduction

2016
Human respiratory syncytial virus (RSV) is understood to be a significant human pathogen in infants, young children, and the elderly and the immunocompromised. Over the last decade many important mechanisms contributing to RSV infection, replication, and disease pathogenesis have been revealed; however, there is still insufficient knowledge which has ...

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 ...

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
