Infection rate and virus-induced cytokine secretion in experimental rhinovirus infection in mucosal organ culture: comparison between specimens from patients with chronic rhinosinusitis with nasal polyps and those from normal subjects.
OBJECTIVE To investigate the difference in susceptibility to rhinovirus (RV) infection and RV-induced inflammatory response between the nasal mucosae from patients with chronic rhinosinusitis with nasal polyps (CRS/NP) and subjects without CRS/NP (hereinafter, normal subjects). DESIGN In vitro study. SETTING Tertiary care rhinology clinic. PATIENTS We conducted RV infection experiments on...
متن کاملExperimental rhinovirus infection in volunteers.
Experimental viral disease studies in volunteers have clarified many aspects of the pathogenesis of human viral disease. Recently, interest has focused on rhinovirus-associated asthma exacerbations, and new volunteer studies have suggested that airway responsiveness (AR) is enhanced during a cold. For scientific, ethical and safety reasons, it is important to use validated methods for the prepa...
متن کاملExperimental Human Rhinovirus Infection
Double-blind trials were conducted in volunteers to evaluate the efficacy of the prophylactic 3,4-dihydro-1-isoquinolineacetamide hydrochloride (DIQA) treatment against rhinovirus type 24 challenge. Ten men received a 7-day course of DIQA treatment and 11 men received a placebo. The intranasal viral challenge dose was 10 mean tissue culture infective doses. The oral administration of 1 g precha...
متن کاملCytokine Production in Hymenolepis Nana Infection
Background: Although many experimental studies provide convincing evidence that type II immunity is protective against helminths, recent data in mice demonstrate that Th1 is also impor-tant in some cestodes like Hymenolepis nana. Objective: To identify the role of Th1 and Th2 lymphocytes in immunity against H. nana, the levels of IL-12, IFNγ, IL-5, and IL-13 were de-termined in serum of humans ...
متن کاملRhinovirus Genome Evolution during Experimental Human Infection
Human rhinoviruses (HRVs) evolve rapidly due in part to their error-prone RNA polymerase. Knowledge of the diversity of HRV populations emerging during the course of a natural infection is essential and represents a basis for the design of future potential vaccines and antiviral drugs. To evaluate HRV evolution in humans, nasal wash samples were collected daily for five days from 15 immunocompe...
