Human rhinoviruses (HRV), members of the Picornaviridae family, are comprised of over 100 different virus serotypes. HRV represent the single most important etiological agents of the common cold [Arruda, E., Pitkaranta, A., Witek Jr., T.J., Doyle, C.A., Hayden, F.G., 1997.

Rhinovirus and Asthma Exacerbations
Rhinovirus (RV) is ubiquitous and typically causes only minor upper respiratory symptoms. However, especially in children and adolescent asthmatics, RV is responsible for most exacerbations. This ability of RV to drive exacerbations typically requires the concomitant presence of exposure to a bystander allergen.

Implications of Tobacco Use on Pathogen‐Driven Diseases: A Public Health and Policy Perspective
ABSTRACT The tobacco epidemic remains one of the most significant global public health challenges, responsible for over 8 million deaths annually, with a substantial portion occurring among non‐smokers exposed to second‐hand smoke. While cigarette smoking remains the most prevalent form of tobacco use worldwide, the rise of electronic nicotine delivery

Airway Epithelial Cell Immunity Is Delayed During Rhinovirus Infection in Asthma and COPD
Respiratory viral infections, particularly those caused by rhinovirus, exacerbate chronic respiratory inflammatory diseases, such as asthma and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD).

Rhinovirus – not just the common cold [PDF]
Rhinoviruses (RV) are ubiquitous respiratory tract pathogens. They affect both the upper and lower respiratory tract and cause colds but have also been associated with wheezing, asthma exacerbations and pneumonia. New blood transcription profiling techniques of the host immune response are becoming available to characterise the pathogenesis of RV in ...

Fourteen genes, mainly encoding keratins, were commonly differentially expressed in both allergic and non‐allergic individuals after nasal provocation with birch pollen. The nasal provocation in birch pollen‐allergic individuals led to activation of innate immune pathways within 15–30 min and proliferation‐regulatory pathways within 60–120 min.

Summary We have studied the synthesis of virus RNA in human embryo lung cells infected with rhinovirus type 2. The three species of RNA in extracts of infected cells are, in order of decreasing electrophoretic mobility, single-stranded RNA, replicative form and replicative intermediate.

Summary: Background: During the 2009 pandemic of an emerging influenza A virus (IAV; H1N1pdm09), data from several European countries indicated that the spread of the virus might have been interrupted by the annual autumn rhinovirus epidemic.
