Respiratory Syncytial Virus [PDF]

open access: possible, 1976
Respiratory syncytial virus (RSV) was first isolated from a chimpanzee with common-cold-like illness.(53a) Shortly thereafter, the virus was recovered from young children with severe lower respiratory tract disease in Baltimore. (11,16) Since its initial isolation from infants with respiratory disease almost 20 yr ago, RSV has emerged as the major ...

Immunofluorescence with respiratory syncytial virus

Virology, 1962
Abstract The growth of respiratory syncytial (RS) virus in tissue cultures of HEp-2 cells at a low multiplicity of infection has been studied by means of several staining procedures including immunofluorescence, as well as by serial infectivity titrations.

Bovine Respiratory Syncytial Virus

Veterinary Clinics of North America: Food Animal Practice, 1997
Since the first report of BRSV in the 1970s, the understanding of this agent and its respective disease has increased dramatically. Current evidence supports a major role for this virus in bovine respiratory disease. Advances in diagnostics have increased the ability to demonstrate this virus in field outbreaks of respiratory disease.

Respiratory syncytial virus infection in adults

British medical journal, 2019
Human respiratory syncytial virus (RSV) belongs to the recently defined Pneumoviridae family, Orthopneumovirus genus. It is a negative sense, single stranded RNA virus that results in epidemics of respiratory infections that typically peak in the winter ...

Respiratory syncytial virus infection

The Lancet, 1999
Respiratory syncytial virus (RSV), long recognised as the major viral pathogen of the lower respiratory tract of infants, has also been implicated in severe lung disease in adults, especially the elderly. This fact, and the demonstration that passive prophylaxis with either polyclonal or monoclonal antibody to RSV prevents severe lung disease in high ...

Summary Thirty-nine positive cases of Respiratory Syncytial Virus infection were diagnosed in patients in the Infectious Diseases Unit, Castle Hill Hospital, Cottingham (Near Hull), E. Yorkshire, during January to March 1965. There were 23 positive tissue-cultures (33 per cent.) out of a total of 70 throat-swabs or garglings received. Twelve of these

Respiratory Syncytial Virus in Nurseries

New England Journal of Medicine, 1979

Pathogenesis of respiratory syncytial virus

Current Opinion in Virology, 2012
While affecting all age groups, respiratory syncytial virus (RSV) infections can be particularly severe in infants, who develop functionally distinct immune responses, as well as in immunocompromised individuals. The extent to which environmental, viral and host factors contribute to the pathogenesis of RSV varies considerably between infected ...
