Vaccine Development Rajeev Rudraraju, Bart G. Jones, Robert Sealy, Sherri L. Surman and Julia L. Hurwitz Respiratory Syncytial Virus: Current Progress in Vaccine Development............................................ 297 Reprinted from Viruses 2013, 5(2), 577-594; doi:10.3390/v5020577 http://www.mdpi.com/1999-4915/5/2/577 Preface This volume of Viruses includes seventeen independent contributions that focus on the biology of pneumovirus and metapneumovirus respiratory virus pathogens. As a group, these are all pathogens of the family Paramyxoviridae, which are enveloped viruses with non-segmented single stranded RNA genomes that cause acute infections of the upper and lower respiratory tract. Among the pneumovirus pathogens, first and foremost is the human respiratory syncytial virus (HRSV; genus, pneumovirus). HRSV is the leading cause of lower respiratory tract infection in infants and children, and is an emerging pathogen of the elderly (reviewed in [1]). Current management for HRSV disease includes prophylaxis with humanized monoclonal antibody, a regimen available to infants identified as high- risk only (i.e. those born prematurely, with bronchopulmonary dysplasia, immunodeficiency or congenital heart disease). At this time, there are no vaccines available to prevent HRSV infection. Two contributions to this volume describe interesting and relatively novel experimental models, including a perinatal lamb model (Dersheid and Ackermann) and neonatal calf model of HRSV infection (Nonnecke and colleagues), both drawing important parallels to infection in human infants. In another contribution, Pereira de Souza and colleagues provide an update on circulating HRSV (G-gene based) genotypes in São José do Rio Preto, Brazil. Also included are several studies focused on HRSV basic biology and pathogenesis including receptor-based fusion (Mastrangelo and Hegele), gene expression in macrophages (Rivera-Toledo and Gomez) and interactions with Th17 lymphocytes (Mageed and colleagues). Finally, Hurwitz and colleagues have contributed a crucial update on current progress towards development of a safe and effective vaccine for prevention of this HRSV infection. Bovine RSV (BRSV) is a pathogen of considerable veterinary importance. Similar to the clinical impact of HRSV, BRSV infects cattle worldwide, with the

Dominated by bacteria, the microbiota also includes commensal populations of fungi, viruses, archaea, and protists. Unlike bacterial microbiota, which was extensively studied in the past two decades, these non-bacterial microorganisms, their functional roles, and their interaction with one another or with host immune system have not been as widely explored. This review covers the recent findings on the non-bacterial communities of the human gastrointestinal microbiota and their involvement in health and disease, with particular focus on the pathophysiology of inflammatory bowel disease. Keywords: gut microbiota; inflammatory bowel disease (IBD); mycobiome; virome; archaeome; eukaryotic parasites 1. Introduction Trillions of microbes colonize the human body, forming the microbial community collectively referred to as the human microbiota.

  • Rational Design of Human Metapneumovirus Live Attenuated Vaccine Candidates by Inhibiting Viral Messenger RNA Cap Methyltransferase
    Rational design of human metapneumovirus live attenuated vaccine candidates by inhibiting viral messenger RNA cap methyltransferase DISSERTATION Presented in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree Doctor of Philosophy in the Graduate School of The Ohio State University By Yu Zhang The Graduate Program in Food Science and Technology The Ohio State University 2014 Dissertation Committee: Dr. Jianrong Li, advisor Dr. Melvin Pascall Dr. Stefan Niewiesk Dr. Tracey Papenfuss Copyrighted by Yu Zhang 2014 Abstract Human metapneumovirus (hMPV) is a newly discovered paramyxovirus, first identified in 2001 in the Netherlands in infants and children with acute respiratory tract infections. Soon after its discovery, hMPV was recognized as a globally prevalent pathogen. Epidemiological studies suggest that 5 to 15% of all respiratory tract infections in infants and young children are caused by hMPV, a proportion second only to that of human respiratory syncytial virus (hRSV). Despite major efforts, there are no therapeutics or vaccines available for hMPV. In the last decade, approaches to generate vaccines employing viral proteins or inactivated vaccines have failed either due to a lack of immunogenicity or the potential for causing enhanced pulmonary disease upon natural infection with the same virus. In contrast to inactivated vaccines, enhanced lung diseases have not been observed for candidate live attenuated hMPV vaccines. Thus, a living attenuated vaccine is the most promising vaccine candidate for hMPV. However, it has been a challenge to identify an hMPV vaccine strain that has an optimal balance between attenuation and immunogenicity. In addition, hMPV grows poorly in cell culture and the growth is trypsin-dependent.

  • Human Metapneumovirus Circulation in the United States, 2008 to 2014 Amber K
    Human Metapneumovirus Circulation in the United States, 2008 to 2014 Amber K. Haynes, MPH, a Ashley L. Fowlkes, MPH, b Eileen Schneider, MD,a Jeffry D. Mutuc, MPH,a Gregory L. Armstrong, MD, c Susan I. Gerber, MDa BACKGROUND: Human metapneumovirus (HMPV) infection causes respiratory illness, including abstract bronchiolitis and pneumonia. However, national HMPV seasonality, as it compares with respiratory syncytial virus (RSV) and influenza seasonality patterns, has not been well described. METHODS: Hospital and clinical laboratories reported weekly aggregates of specimens tested and positive detections for HMPV, RSV, and influenza to the National Respiratory and Enteric Virus Surveillance System from 2008 to 2014. A season was defined as consecutive weeks with ≥3% positivity for HMPV and ≥10% positivity for RSV and influenza during a surveillance year (June through July). For each virus, the season, onset, offset, duration, peak, and 6-season medians were calculated. RESULTS: Among consistently reporting laboratories, 33 583 (3.6%) specimens were positive for HMPV, 281 581 (15.3%) for RSV, and 401 342 (18.2%) for influenza. Annually, 6 distinct HMPV seasons occurred from 2008 to 2014, with onsets ranging from November to February and offsets from April to July. Based on the 6-season medians, RSV, influenza, and HMPV onsets occurred sequentially and season durations were similar at 21 to 22 weeks. HMPV demonstrated a unique biennial pattern of early and late seasonal onsets. RSV seasons (onset, offset, peak) were most consistent and occurred before HMPV seasons. There were no consistent patterns between HMPV and influenza circulations. CONCLUSIONS: HMPV circulation begins in winter and lasts until spring and demonstrates distinct seasons each year, with the onset beginning after that of RSV.

    Article The cellular protein TIP47 restricts Respirovirus multiplication leading to decreased virus particle production BAMPI, Carole, et al. Abstract The cellular tail-interacting 47-kDa protein (TIP47) acts positively on HIV-1 and vaccinia virus production. We show here that TIP47, in contrast, acts as a restriction factor for Sendai virus production. This conclusion is supported by the occurrence of increased or decreased virus production upon its suppression or overexpression, respectively. Pulse-chase metabolic labeling of viral proteins under conditions of TIP47 suppression reveals an increased rate of viral protein synthesis followed by increased incorporation of viral proteins into virus particles. TIP47 is here described for the first time as a viral restriction factor that acts by limiting viral protein synthesis. Reference BAMPI, Carole, et al. The cellular protein TIP47 restricts Respirovirus multiplication leading to decreased virus particle production.
