Host cell signaling in response to RSV infection
RSV infection is the most important cause of hospitalization of infants, and is also the major cause for admissions in adults with chronic cardiac disease and pulmonary diseases. So far, there is no effective treatment or vaccine against RSV infection. Intensive studies have been performed to …

Interactions of soybean Rsv genes and Soybean mosaic virus
… break the resistance of Hutcheson containing the Rsv1y allele. These RB isolates are SMV-G5 and G6-like based on the differential reactions on soybean cultivars with the Rsv1 locus, and are more G6-like based on the amino acid sequence of the coat protein (CP). The CP of the RB isolates is diverse …

Mathematical model for tripledemic disease (COVID-19, RSV, and Influenza)
… (Flu), and Respiratory Syncytial Virus (RSV), collectively termed the ”Tripledemic,” poses substantial public health challenges due to their overlapping transmission patterns and compounded healthcare demands. The discovery of COVID-19 vaccines such as Moderna (mRNA-1273, Spikevax) and …

Developing a Plant-Based Vaccine Against the Respiratory Syncytial Virus (Rsv)
The progression towards fruit-ripening is a highly coordinated process. Fruit softening is the result of polygalacturonase (PG) enzyme activation. The fruit-ripening promoter and the terminator regions from PG were sequenced. BLASTn analysis reveals sequence homology to genes involved in ethylene …

Modelling the transmission dynamics of RSV and the impact of routine vaccination
… young infants are poor responders to candidate RSV vaccines. This thesis focuses on the use of mathematical models to explore the merits of vaccination. <br></br><br></br> <b>Methods:</b> Following development and analysis of a simple non-age-structured ODE model, we elaborate this to a …

Antikörper-Entwicklung nach Respiratory Syncytial Virus (RSV)-Infektion bei Frühgeborenen und Säuglingen
… infizierte Kinder untersucht. Das dazugehörige RSV-negative Vergleichskollektiv bestand aus 50 bzw. 23 Kindern. Neben biographischen, anamnestischen und klinischen Daten kam der IgG-/IgA-AK-Status bzw. die AK-Entwicklung nach RSV-Infektion mittels Immunoblot zur Auswertung. <br>In der Gruppe der …

Αντιλήψεις των πολιτών και των γιατρών σχετικά με τον εμβολιασμό έναντι του RSV
Ο Αναπνευστικός Συγκυτιακός Ιός (RSV) αποτελεί σημαντικό αίτιο λοιμώξεων του κατώτερου αναπνευστικού, ιδιαίτερα σε βρέφη, ηλικιωμένους και ασθενείς με χρόνια νοσήματα. Ο ιός παρουσιάζει εποχική έξαρση, κυρίως κατά τους χειμερινούς μήνες και μεταδίδεται μέσω σταγονιδίων και επαφής με μολυσμένες …

INFLUENCE OF GENOTYPE, PROTEIN-CALORIE RESTRICTION AND THEIR INTERACTION UPON RSV-INDUCED TUMORS IN CHICKENS
… restriction interaction upon Rous sarcoma virus (RSV)-induced tumor development in chickens. Two genetic systems were used. The first involved an inbred line and a noninbred line of chickens. The second utilized F2 generation progeny from a cross of lines 6-1 and 15-1, highly inbred lines of White …

MAJOR HISTOCOMPATIBILITY COMPLEX (MHC) VS NON-MHC INFLUENCES ON RESPONSE TO RSV-INDUCED TUMORS IN CHICKENS
… influence on the fate of Rous sarcoma virus (RSV)-induced tumors. However, noninbred chickens with identical B genotypes and inbred lines indistinguishable at the MHC have demonstrated considerable variation in response to RSV challenge. The major objective of this research was to determine …

Elucidation of the roles of PTN and ISG15 in RSV cytopathogenesis: possible biomarkers of severe disease?
Respiratory syncytial virus (RSV) infection is the most common cause of severe lower respiratory tract infection in infants under two years old. Sparking seasonal epidemics, RSV contributes to around 20,000 admissions to hospital in the UK annually and many require intensive care support. Peak …

The role of reactive oxygen species as mediators of respiratory syncytial virus induced pulmonary inflammation
Respiratory Syncytial Virus (RSV) is the leading cause of epidemic respiratory tract illness in children worldwide. Although the mechanisms of RSV-induced airway disease are unknown, experimental evidence suggests that early local inflammatory processes serve as major initiating events in the …

RSV infection in children hospitalised with severe lower respiratory tract infection at the Red Cross War Memorial Children's Hospital (2012-2013)
… largest burden of Respiratory syncytial virus (RSV) disease, with most deaths occurring in these settings. This study aimed to investigate the burden of RSV disease in South African children hospitalised with lower respiratory tract infection (LRTI), with specific reference to incidence, risk …

Identification and mode of action studies of new potent inhibitors of the RNA viruses HCV, BVDV and RSV
… including HCV BVDV, YFV, REO-1, CVB-5, Sb-1 and RSV. Some of the new derivatives turned out to be very interesting for their potency and selectivity against BVDV and HCV (the former), and RSV (the latter), and could be promising candidates for the treatment of the related diseases.

Genetic and Biochemical Analysis of the Bryan Strain of Rous Sarcoma Virus
… high titer strain of Rous sarcoma virus (BH-RSV). Twelve independent BHRSV-transformed chicken embryo fibroblast clones were obtained and the provirus-cell junction fragments were mapped by restriction endonuclease cleavage and Southern blotting analyses. We found that expression of the viral …

Long-term effect of respiratory syncytial virus (RSV) infection on children: a prospective longitudinal birth cohort study in Bangladesh
BACKGROUND: Respiratory Syncytial Virus (RSV) is a leading cause of illness among neonates and young infants. In 2019, an estimated 33 million [95% CI: 21·6-50·3) RSV-associated acute lower respiratory infected (RSV-ALRI) episodes occurred worldwide in children younger than five years, and 101,400 …

Role of Dendritic Cells in Pathology of Respiratory Syncytial Virus Infection in Neonates
<p>Respiratory syncytial virus (RSV) is one of the leading causes of bronchiolitis in children. We have shown that neonatal mice respond to primary RSV infection with T helper type 2 (Th2) biased immune responses, which are enhanced following reinfection. Dendritic cells (DCs) including myeloid DCs …
