Picornavirus and enterovirus diversity with associated human diseases

TLDR
The Enterovirus genus is a prototype example of the Picornaviridae heterogeneity at both genetic and phenotypic levels and better characterization of these ubiquitous human pathogens may help to develop vaccines or antiviral treatments and to monitor the emergence of new strains.

Whole Genome Sequencing of Enterovirus species C Isolates by High-Throughput Sequencing: Development of Generic Primers

TL;DR: A simple method was developed to quickly sequence the entire genome of EV-C isolates, decreasing the workload compared to classical Sanger-based techniques, and will serve as a precious tool for sequencing large panels ofEV-Cs isolated in cell cultures during environmental surveillance or from patients, including vaccine-derived polioviruses.
Journal ArticleDOI

The dark side of the gut: Virome-host interactions in intestinal homeostasis and disease.

TL;DR: In this article, the authors provide an overview of the enteric virome composition and summarize recent findings about how enteric viruses are sensed by and in turn modulate host immune responses during homeostasis and disease.
Journal ArticleDOI

Synthesis and antiviral effect of novel fluoxetine analogues as enterovirus 2C inhibitors

TL;DR: The synthesis and the antiviral effect of a series of fluoxetine analogues are reported and a preliminary insight is offered into the structure-activity relationship of its chemical scaffold and the importance of the chiral configuration is confirmed.
Journal ArticleDOI

Cerebrospinal fluid features in adults with enteroviral nervous system infection

TL;DR: The absence of CSF pleocytosis, isolated cranial nerve involvement, and only infrequent general signs of infection may impede the diagnosis of enteroviral nervous system infections.

Virus taxonomy: classification and nomenclature of viruses. Seventh report of the International Committee on Taxonomy of Viruses.

TL;DR: This report builds on the accumulated taxonomic construction of the eight previous reports dating back to 1971 and records the proceedings of the Committee since publication of the last report in 2005.

Community study of role of viral infections in exacerbations of asthma in 9-11 year old children.

TL;DR: This study supports the hypothesis that upper respiratory viral infections are associated with 80-85% of asthma exacerbations in school age children.
Journal ArticleDOI

Mutation rates among RNA viruses

TL;DR: This work describes a simple relation between ribovirus mutation frequencies and mutation rates, applies it to the best (albeit far from satisfactory) available data, and observes a central value for the mutation rate per genome per replication of micro(g) approximately 0.76.

Virology, epidemiology, pathogenesis, and control of enterovirus 71.

TL;DR: Enterovirus 71 is a major public health issue across the Asia-Pacific region and beyond, with new outbreaks occurring across Asia in regular cycles, and virus gene subgroups seem to differ in clinical epidemiological properties.
