The relationships between host factors, virus strain, viral load, and illness severity in respiratory syncytial virus (RSV)-induced bronchiolitis are poorly defined. These relationships were evaluated prospectively in 81 previously healthy infants hospitalized with RSV bronchiolitis. Disease severity was determined by the respiratory rate, the duration of hospitalization, and whether patients during their hospitalization required pediatric intensive care unit admission or mechanical ventilation. RSV typing into subgroup A and B was obtained by RT-PCR-hybridization assay. The nasopharyngeal RSV viral loads were measured by real-time quantitative RT-PCR. Disease severity correlated significantly with the presence of risk factor (estimated gestational age < 37 weeks and/or birth weight < 2,500 g) and with chronologic age 相似文献

BACKGROUND: In infants hospitalized for a lower respiratory tract infection (RTI) caused by respiratory syncytial virus (RSV), the correlation between viral load (VL) and patient clinical characteristics remains to be defined. OBJECTIVES: To define this correlation. STUDY DESIGN: prospective study of 47 infants admitted to hospital in the period November 2006-May 2007 with a diagnosis of lower RTI. Nasopharyngeal aspirates (NPAs) were taken at admission, discharge, and at post-discharge control visits. VL was quantified by real-time RT-PCR for RSV subgroups A and B. RESULTS: Patients with bronchiolitis were compared with young patients with lower RTI other than bronchiolitis. Patients with bronchiolitis had a significantly lower age than patients with other syndromes, and a significantly longer duration of symptoms. Duration of hospitalization was not different in the two groups of patients, and was not related to RSV subgroup or viral coinfection. A sustained decrease in VL was observed in the general patient population between admission, discharge and post-discharge follow-up visits. CONCLUSIONS: (i) patients with bronchiolitis were significantly younger than patients with other lower RTIs; (ii) symptom duration was significantly longer in patients with bronchiolitis; (iii) RSV VL significantly decreased between admission and discharge. 相似文献

Respiratory syncytial virus (RSV) is a major cause of respiratory tract infections in infants, with remarkable variability in disease severity. Factors determining severity of disease in previously healthy infants are still unclear. It was hypothesized that disease severity is correlated with viral load in primary RSV infection. Infants of a healthy birth cohort were included at signs of their first respiratory tract infection. Nasopharyngeal aspirate was obtained within 48–96 hr and disease severity was assessed with a previously published severity scoring model. PCR was applied to test the aspirates in a semi‐quantitative way for the presence of 10 respiratory pathogens. In case of multiple infection, the pathogen with the highest load was defined as the primary pathogen. The correlation between disease severity and viral load was analyzed. A total of 82 infants were included over a period of 2 years. Median age at first respiratory tract infection was 3 months. Pathogens were detected in 77 (94%) infants; more than one pathogen was detected in 35 (43%) infants. RSV was present in aspirates of 30 infants; in 16 aspirates RSV was the primary pathogen. A negative correlation between RSV CT‐value and disease severity was found in all RSV cases (ρ = ?0.52, P = 0.003) and in cases with RSV as the primary pathogen (ρ = ?0.54, P = 0.03). In conclusion, this is the first report on viral loads in previously healthy infants with RSV infection in the community. Disease severity correlated positively with viral load during primary RSV infection. J. Med. Virol. 82: 1266–1271, 2010. © 2010 Wiley‐Liss, Inc. 相似文献

RANTES may be predictive of later recurrent wheezing after respiratory syncytial virus bronchiolitis in infants. 总被引:3,自引:0,他引:3
BACKGROUND: In vitro studies have shown that RANTES is strongly induced by respiratory syncytial virus (RSV) infection in cultures of upper airway epithelial cells. RANTES is known as a chemoattractant and activator for eosinophils. OBJECTIVES: We performed this study to investigate whether RANTES is increased in the airway during naturally acquired RSV bronchiolitis. RANTES levels were then evaluated in relation to the severity of illness and later development of recurrent wheezing. METHODS: We measured RANTES in nasal secretions of 30 patients with acute RSV bronchiolitis. Eosinophil cationic protein (ECP) was determined to evaluate the activation of eosinophils. The severity of illness was determined by the initial PaO2 values and the duration of wheezing. At a 1-year followup, all infants were re-evaluated if they had experienced subsequent wheezing, and we investigated if RANTES levels could predict the later development of recurrent wheezing. RESULTS: Both RANTES and ECP in RSV bronchiolitis were significantly higher than in controls. There was a significant correlation between the levels of RANTES and ECP. RANTES was not significantly higher in patients with severe symptoms than in patients with mild symptoms. RANTES in infants who had experienced subsequent wheezing was significantly higher than in infants who had not. CONCLUSIONS: Our results showed that RANTES is increased in nasal secretion during acute RSV bronchiolitis and suggest that high levels of RANTES may be predictive of later development of recurrent wheezing. 相似文献

BACKGROUND: Human Metapneumovirus (hMPV), has been recently isolated from children with acute respiratory tract infections (RTIs), including bronchiolitis, and classified in the Pneumovirinae subfamily within the Paramyxoviridae family. OBJECTIVES: Since most bronchiolitis studies fail to detect any viral pathogen in part of the samples, we sought for the presence of hMPV in a well characterized bronchiolitis cohort. STUDY DESIGN: Nasal washes were obtained from 56 children admitted to the hospital for acute bronchiolitis. RNA extraction and subsequent RT-PCR were used to detect hMPV, and correlated the presence of the virus with clinical characteristics of the disease. RESULTS AND CONCLUSIONS: PCR revealed the presence of hMPV in 16% of bronchiolitis cases, whereas respiratory syncytial virus (RSV; 67.9%) was the most frequently encountered viral pathogen. hMPV was identified either as a unique viral pathogen or co-existed with RSV, with whom they shared a similar seasonal distribution. There were no differences in disease characteristics, either clinical or laboratory, between bronchiolitis cases where hMPV was present and those caused by RSV or other viral pathogens. These findings suggest that hMPV is a common and important causative agent in infants with bronchiolitis, with clinical characteristics similar to that of RSV. 相似文献

BackgroundViral bronchiolitis presents a heterogeneous spectrum. In this study, we investigated the clinical characteristics and the cytokines/chemokines profiles among respiratory syncytial virus (RSV), rhinovirus (RV), and their dual infection in Taiwanese children with viral bronchiolitis.MethodThis study was conducted between October 2014 and June 2017. Viral etiology was identified using a Luminex respiratory virus panel and blood cytokines were evaluated using a MILLIPLEX MAP Human Cytokine/Chemokine Panel. Cytokine/Chemokine expressions were compared by clinical severity, steroid treatment, and viral entities.ResultsA total of 184 patients were evaluated; at least one respiratory virus was identified in 163 (88.6%) patients. RSV and RV were the two leading viral etiologies, with 25.5% and 17.3%, respectively. RV bronchiolitis has a comparable severity to RSV but is more common in children of an older age with a history of recurrent wheezing and blood eosinophilia. Decreased tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-α) and interferon gamma (INF-γ) levels were correlated with clinical severity. Patients infected with RV exhibited higher levels of Interleukin (IL)-22, IL-23, IL-25, IL-31, and IL-33 (p < 0.05), whereas those with RSV had higher levels of TNF-α, INF-γ, and IL-10 (p < 0.05). Systemic steroid treatment was associated with higher expressions of IL-4, IL-8, IL-13, and MIP-1α levels (p < 0.05). Cluster analysis revealed a high correlation of IL-33 and IL-31(R2 = 0.9731, p < 0.0001).ConclusionDifferent viral infections elicited the characteristic clinical presentation and immune profiles in bronchiolitis. Our findings also highlight the role of the IL-33/IL-31 axis in the immunopathogenesis of bronchiolitis. 相似文献

Respiratory syncytial virus (RSV) bronchiolitis is a leading cause of infant hospitalization and mortality. We previously identified that prostaglandin D2 (PGD2), released following RSV infection of primary human airway epithelial cells or pneumonia virus of mice (PVM) infection of neonatal mice, elicits pro- or antiviral innate immune responses as a consequence of D-type prostanoid receptor 2 (DP2) or DP1 activation, respectively. Here, we sought to determine whether treatment with the DP1 agonist BW245c decreases the severity of bronchiolitis in PVM-infected neonatal mice. Consistent with previous findings, BW245c treatment increased IFN-λ production and decreased viral load in week 1 of the infection. However, unexpectedly, BW245c treatment increased mortality in week 2 of the infection. This increased morbidity was associated with viral spread to the parenchyma, an increased cellular infiltrate of TNF-α-producing cells (neutrophils, monocytes, and CD4+ T cells), and the heightened production of the pro-inflammatory cytokines TNF-α, IL-6, and IL-1β. These phenotypes, as well as the increased mortality, were significantly attenuated following the administration of anti-TNF-α to PVM-infected, BW245c-treated mice. In summary, pharmacological activation of the DP1 receptor in PVM-infected neonatal mice boosts antiviral innate and adaptive immunity, however, this is ultimately detrimental, as a consequence of increased TNF-α-induced morbidity and mortality. 相似文献

Decreased transplacental transfer of antibodies and altered immunoresponsiveness may place preterm (PT) infants at higher risk for serious consequences from respiratory syncytial virus (RSV) bronchiolitis. We hypothesize that among infants hospitalized with RSV bronchiolitis, immune response in PT infants may be different when compared with that of term infants. Nasal-wash samples were collected from 11 PT (<37 weeks of gestation) and 13 term infants (≥37 weeks of gestation) hospitalized with RSV bronchiolitis. Severity of illness (clinical score [CS]), admission peripheral oxygen saturation, and days subjects required supplemental oxygen were compared. Nasal-wash leukocyte count as well as cytokines for interleukin (IL)-8, IL-4, and interferon-γ (IFN-γ) were assayed. No significant differences in CS, admission SaO(2), and O(2) days were seen between PT and term infants. Nasal-wash leukocyte counts and IL-8 levels were higher in term infants compared with PT and correlated with severity (higher CS) in term (p < 0.05) but not in PT (p > 0.05) infants. IL-4 and IFN-γ levels did not differ between the 2 groups (p > 0.05). PT infants hospitalized with RSV bronchiolitis have lower nasal-wash leukocyte counts and a less robust IL-8 response than term infants, and only in term infants did IL-8 levels correlate with clinical disease severity. 相似文献

The genetic diversity of the host is believed to be the key of the diversity in the clinical presentation of bronchiolitis. The aim of this study was to determine whether the known rs12979860 and rs8099917 single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in interleukin (IL)28B region, influence clinical features and natural history of bronchiolitis. Both SNPs showed no significant association with the risk of hospitalization for respiratory syncytial virus (RSV), viral load, disease severity, and other clinical features of patients. Interestingly infants carrying IL28B rs12979860 TT genotype had lower age at hospital admission than that of infants carrying CC/CT genotypes. Overall our results indicate that both IL28B SNPs had no impact on the clinical course of bronchiolitis with the only exception of the IL28B rs12979860 SNP which increased the risk of hospitalization for bronchiolitis at early age. 相似文献

Respiratory syncytial virus (RSV) is the leading cause of acute lower respiratory tract infection (LRTI) in children under 5 years of age, especially infants with severe bronchiolitis. Our preliminary clinical experiments showed that bacterial colonization was commonly observed in children with virus-induced wheezing, particularly in those with recurrent wheezing, suggesting that bacterial colonization with an accompanying viral infection may contribute to disease severity. In most cases, RSV-infected infants were colonized with pathogenic bacteria (mainly Gram-negative bacteria). LPS is the main component of Gram-negative bacteria and acts as a ligand for Toll-like receptor 4 (TLR4). Relevant studies have reported that the TLR family is crucial in mediating the link between viral components and immunologic responses to infection. Of note, TLR4 activation has been associated with disease severity during RSV infection. In the present study, we identified that LPS aggravated RSV-induced AHR and airway inflammation in BALB/c mice using an RSV coinfection model. We found that the airway inflammatory cells and cytokines present in BALF and TRIF in lung tissue play a role in inducing AHR and airway inflammation upon RSV and bacteria coinfection, which might occur through the TRIF-MMP-9-neutrophil-MMP-9 signalling pathway. These results may aid in the development of novel treatments and improve vaccine design. 相似文献

Lower respiratory tract infections (LRTIs) produced by viruses are the most frequent cause of morbidity and mortality in children younger than 5 years of age. The immune response triggered by viral infection can induce a strong inflammation in the airways and cytokines could be considered as biomarkers for disease severity as these molecules modulate the inflammatory response that defines the outcome of patients. Aiming to predict the severity of disease during respiratory tract infections, we conducted a 1-year follow-up observational study in infants who presented upper or lower respiratory tract infections caused by seasonal respiratory viruses. At the time of enrollment, nasopharyngeal swabs (NPS) were obtained from infants to measure mRNA expression and protein levels of IL-3, IL-8, IL-33, and thymic stromal lymphopoietin. While all cytokines significantly increased their protein levels in infants with upper and lower respiratory tract infections as compared to control infants, IL-33 and IL-8 showed a significant increase in respiratory syncytial virus (RSV)-infected patients with LRTI as compared to patients with upper respiratory tract infection. We also found higher viral loads of RSV-positive samples with a greater IL-8 response at the beginning of the symptoms. Data obtained in this study suggest that both IL-8 and IL-33 could be used as biomarkers for clinical severity for infants suffering from LRTIs caused by the RSV. 相似文献

The aim of this study was to investigate potential differences in the local nasal immune response between bronchiolitis and upper respiratory tract infection induced by respiratory syncytial virus (RSV). Nasal brush samples were obtained from 14 infants with RSV bronchiolitis and from 8 infants with RSV upper respiratory tract infection. The samples were taken during infection (acute phase) and 2-4 weeks later (convalescent phase). Cytospin preparations were stained immunohistochemically for T cells, macrophages, and eosinophils. Staining also took place for intercellular adhesion molecule-1 (ICAM-1), T-helper 1 (Th1)-like (interleukin-12 [IL-12], interferon-gamma [IFN-gamma]), Th2-like (IL-4, IL-10), and proinflammatory cytokines (IL-6, IL-8, IL-18). During both RSV-induced bronchiolitis and upper respiratory tract infection, cellular inflammation was observed. This was characterised by an increase in the numbers of nasal macrophages, which tended to be higher in bronchiolitis than in upper respiratory tract infection. Numbers of T lymphocytes and ICAM-1 positive cells increased during both bronchiolitis and upper respiratory tract infection. There were no differences between numbers in the groups. Interestingly, a distinct nasal proinflammatory cytokine response was observed in RSV-induced bronchiolitis. This is characterised by an increase in the number of IL-18 positive cells. This increase is specific for bronchiolitis, as a similar increase could not be detected in RSV-induced upper respiratory tract infection. Numbers of IL-6 and IL-12 positive cells were higher in both bronchiolitis and upper respiratory tract infection, and there were no differences between the groups. By contrast, the number of IL-8, IFN-gamma, IL-4, and IL-10-positive cells remained constant. In conclusion, clear differences were found in nasal immune responses of children with RSV-induced upper respiratory tract infection or bronchiolitis. The induction of a strong IL-18 response was typical for bronchiolitis, as this could not be observed in RSV-induced upper respiratory tract infection, and could explain the eosinophilia that is observed frequently during bronchiolitis. 相似文献

Respiratory syncytial virus (RSV) is the single most important cause of lower respiratory tract infection during infancy and early childhood. Once RSV infection is established, the host immune response includes the production of virus-neutralizing antibodies and T-cell-specific immunity. The humoral immune response normally results in the development of anti-RSV neutralizing-antibody titers, but these are often suboptimal during an infant's initial infection. Even when the production of RSV neutralizing antibody following RSV infection is robust, humoral immunity wanes over time. Reinfection during subsequent seasons is common. The cellular immune response to RSV infection is also important for the clearance of virus. This immune response, vital for host defense against RSV, is also implicated in the immunopathogenesis of severe lower respiratory tract RSV bronchiolitis. Many details of the immunology and immunopathologic mechanisms of RSV disease known at present have been learned from rodent models of RSV disease and are discussed in some detail. In addition, the roles of immunoglobulin E, histamine, and eosinophils in the immunopathogenesis of RSV disease are considered. Although the treatment of RSV bronchiolitis is primarily supportive, the role of ribavirin is briefly discussed. Novel approaches to the development of new antiviral drugs with promising anti-RSV activity in vitro are also described. 相似文献

BACKGROUND: Immunostimulatory DNA sequences (ISS) activate the innate immune system to generate antiviral cytokines, such as IFN-gamma. OBJECTIVE: This study investigated whether ISS could reduce viral load, mucus secretion, airway inflammation, and airway hyperreactivity to methacholine in a mouse model of respiratory syncytial virus (RSV) infection. METHODS: Mice were pretreated with ISS 6 days before RSV infection, and lung indices of RSV viral load (viral titer and PCR), bronchoalveolar lavage fluid cytokines (IFN-gamma), airway inflammation (peribronchial inflammation and periodic acid-Schiff-positive mucus cells), and airway hyperreactivity (methacholine responsiveness) were assessed 4 to 6 days after RSV infection. RESULTS: ISS induced the expression of the antiviral cytokine IFN-gamma in the lung, and this was associated with significantly reduced RSV viral titers, mucus secretion, and peribronchial inflammation. ISS reduced, but did not significantly inhibit, RSV-induced airway hyperreactivity to methacholine. CONCLUSION: Because ISS induced significant levels of lung IFN-gamma, an immunization strategy based solely on the administration of IFN-gamma may be insufficient to inhibit RSV-induced airway hyperreactivity to methacholine, an endpoint important in the subset of RSV-infected subjects with asthma. 相似文献

BACKGROUND: Interleukin 10 (IL-10) and IL-11 are known to have anti-inflammatory activities, and they have been implicated in the pathogenesis of respiratory syncytial virus (RSV) infection. OBJECTIVES: To determine IL-10, IL-11, and myeloperoxidase levels in nasal secretions of infants with acute RSV bronchiolitis and to investigate whether there are any differences in these levels in patients with vs without atopy. METHODS: We measured IL-10, IL-11, and myeloperoxidase levels in nasal secretions of 44 infants (20 were atopic) with acute RSV bronchiolitis. The nasal secretion samples were obtained from patients at hospital admission and were stored immediately at -70 degrees C until analysis. Atopy was defined as having at least 1 positive skin prick test reaction to common allergens, a history of atopic dermatitis, or a high serum IgE level compared with age-matched controls. RESULTS: Levels of IL-10, IL-11, and myeloperoxidase increased significantly in samples from infants with acute RSV bronchiolitis. Levels of IL-10 and IL-11 were significantly lower in patients with vs without atopy (P < .05). Myeloperoxidase levels showed no significant difference in patients with vs without atopy (P = .18). Patients with severe symptoms tended to have lower IL-10 levels (P = .09), but no relationship was shown between symptom severity and IL-11 levels. Nasal myeloperoxidase levels were significantly higher in patients with severe symptoms (P < .05). CONCLUSIONS: Production of IL-10 and IL-11 was significantly lower in patients with vs without atopy during acute RSV bronchiolitis. The airway inflammation induced by RSV infection may be different in patients with vs without atopy, and this is associated with lower induction of these immunoregulatory cytokines in children with atopy. 相似文献
