Two Distinct Subtypes of Human Respiratory Syncytial Virus

Journal of General Virology, 1985
Antigenic variation of human respiratory syncytial (RS) virus strains was analysed using a collection of nine, six, six, nine and one monoclonal antibodies respectively directed against the large glycoprotein (G), fusion protein (F), matrix protein (M), nucleoprotein (NP) and phosphoprotein (P) components of the Long strain of RS virus.

Membrane‐Permeable Nucleoside T‐1106 Diphosphate and Triphosphate Analogues as Antiviral Pronucleotides

Chemistry – A European Journal, EarlyView.
Favipiravir (T‐705) and the non‐fluorinated counterpart (T‐1106) are antiviral agents that inhibit the RNA‐dependent RNA polymerase (RdRp) of various RNA viruses. The antiviral efficacy of nucleoside analogues is strongly dependent on their intracellular activation by cellular kinases to produce their corresponding triphosphate metabolites (T‐705‐RTP ...

Impact of RSV Preventive Strategies on Hospitalizations for Bronchiolitis in Infants. [PDF]

Pediatr Pulmonol
ABSTRACT Introduction Respiratory syncytial virus (RSV) is the leading cause of bronchiolitis and hospitalization in infants. Since 2023, France has implemented two preventive strategies aimed at reducing RSV burden: long‐acting monoclonal antibody nirsevimab and RSV vaccine for pregnant women, the latter becoming available from September 2024.

MultNAT HPV16/18 Assay: A Simple, Rapid, and Low‐Cost Polymerase Chain Reaction Method for the Detection of HPV16 and HPV18 Suitable for Point‐of‐Care Testing

Cancer Nexus, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Aim Persistent high‐risk HPV infection can lead to the development of precancerous lesions, potentially progressing to invasive cancer. HPV status serves not only as a prognostic marker for squamous cell carcinoma (HNSCC) like oropharyngeal squamous cell carcinomas (OPSCC) but also significantly influences clinical management and treatment ...

A White Paper on Advancing Long‐Acting Therapeutics for Maternal and Pediatric Health by Bridging Gaps in Clinical Research, Access and Regulation

Clinical Pharmacology &Therapeutics, EarlyView.
As use cases for long‐acting therapeutics expand across clinical indications, there is a critical need to ensure the inclusion of women who are pregnant or breastfeeding, infants and children—populations with a historical gap in the availability of interventions already approved for use in adults.

ONCOLYTIC ACTIVITY OF HUMAN RESPIRATORY SYNCYTIAL VIRUS

Experimental Oncology
Oncolytic viruses (OVs) are emerging as novel tools in cancer therapy. Oncolytic virotherapy offers an attractive therapeutic combination of tumor-specific killing and immune co-stimulation, therefore amplifying the host immune response against tumors.

Human Metapneumovirus and Its Association With Otorhinolaryngological Manifestations: A Systematic Review With Descriptive Synthesis

Eye &ENT Research, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Human metapneumovirus (HMPV) is a respiratory virus that predominantly affects the pediatric population. Its role as an infective agent in ear, nose, and throat (ENT) diseases is not yet well understood. To systematically review the available literature on the association between HMPV and ENT manifestations, following PRISMA guidelines, a ...
