Although the number of deaths resulting from respiratory tract infections has decreased over the last decades, respiratory infections still account for 3-4 million deaths per year worldwide (2–5). Although, on a global ǡ ϐ ȋʹǡ͸Ȍǡ ϐ ǡ annual death rate of 1.3 million people (4,5). Especially adults aged 50 and over, accounting for 84% of these deaths, should be noted (5). Respiratory tract infections can be divided in upper and lower respiratory tract infections. Upper respiratory tract infections, including the common cold, sinusitis, pharyngitis, but also conjunctivitis and otitis media, are mostly considered as mild, self-limiting infections with a viral cause and low morbidity and mortality (7). Lower respiratory tract infections, including bronchitis, bronchiolitis and pneumonia, on the other hand, are associated with more severe clinical symptoms as well as high morbidity and mortality rates (7). Historically, the overriding clinical approach to the management of lower respiratory tract infections has been to focus on bacterial aetiologies, with Streptococcus pneumoniae as the dominant pathogen (8). However, over the last decades, evidence has increased for a role of respiratory viruses in severe lower Ǥϐ acute respiratory tract infections, the most frequently detected pathogens are ǡϐǡ ȋȌǡ ȋȌǡ ȋȌǡϐȋȌȋͻȌǤ overview of the viral, epidemiological and clinical characteristics of these six most common respiratory viral pathogens is shown in Table 1. 10 General introduction Table 1.

In young children, RSV is the most common cause of lower respiratory tract infections globally (18) and has been associated with 12-63% of all acute respiratory infections causing 12 General introduction hospitalization (19). In adults, RSV has traditionally been considered to cause only mild illness (20,21). However, over the last years, RSV has been increasingly recognized as an important cause of illness in adults, especially in vulnerable elderly people (22). In prospective cohort studies among elderly patients, RSV infection developed annually in 3-7% of healthy elderly patients and in 4-10% percent of adults with chronic heart or lung diseases (22). Among hospitalized elderly, RSV has an 8% mortality rate (22). 1 ϐ Ǧϐ viruses, like RSV, there are many promising new therapeutics currently being evaluated in clinical trials.

Lumicitabine is a nucleoside analogue which inhibits the L-protein, the RNA-polymerase of RSV, allowing it to both inhibit RSV replication within infected cells and protect uninfected cells from infection (25). Presatovir is a fusion (F) glycoprotein inhibitor that blocks viral-envelope fusion with the host-cell membrane (25). In studies among healthy adults infected with clinical RSV strains, both therapeutics have been associated with a reduction in viral load and reduced severity of symptoms (26-28). The results of phase 2 trials in adults on both therapeutics are forthcoming (29,30). Additionally, there are Ǧϐ development, such as Novovax and MEDI-559 for RSV (31,32). Given the poor clinical outcomes of adult patients with viral respiratory tract Ǧ ϐ (22,33,34) -, the development and evaluation of these new therapeutics and vaccines is a current research priority. However, to improve individual patient management, epidemiological and prognostic studies are also required to evaluate ϐ Ǥ In the interest of public health, we should thereby not only focus on hospital ϐ ǡ and disease burden of different respiratory viruses in the general population (35,36,37).

  • Respiratory Syncytial Virus
    RSV Respiratory syncytial virus RSV (Respiratory syncytial virus) is a leading cause of acute respiratory infections. RSV can exploit host immunity and cause a strong inflammatory response that leads to lung damage and virus dissemination. There is a single RSV serotype with two major antigenic subgroups, A and B. RSV is a non-segmented negative-sense single-stranded enveloped RNA virus that belongs to the family of Paramyxoviridae, genus Pneumovirus, subfamily Pneumovirinae. Its 10 genes encode 11 proteins since two overlapping open reading frames in the M2 mRNA yield two distinct matrix proteins, M2-1 and M2-2. The viral envelope contains three proteins, the G glycoprotein, the fusion (F) glycoprotein, and the small hydrophobic (SH) protein. The RSV virus comprises five other structural proteins, the large (L) protein, nucleocapsid (N), phosphoprotein (P), matrix (M), and M2-1, and two non-structural proteins (NS1 and NS2). www.MedChemExpress.com 1 RSV Inhibitors Ac-CoA Synthase Inhibitor1 ALS-8112 Cat.
