Human adenoviruses infection causes diseases worldwide in all age groups and genders, which is associated with a wide range of affecting the gastrointestinal tract, respiratory urinary eye, but they are often isolated from pharynx stool asymptomatic children. However, developing countries, diarrhea major cause morbidity mortality; after rotaviruses, human considered to be second most important ...

The Adenoviridae and Polyomaviridae families comprise a wide diversity of viruses which may be excreted for long periods in feces or urine. In this study, a preliminary analysis of the prevalence in the environment and the potential usefulness as source-tracking tools of human and animal adenoviruses and polyomaviruses has been developed. Molecular assays based on PCR specifically targeting hum...

A central quest in gene therapy and vaccination is to achieve effective long-lasting expression at minimal dosage. Adenovirus vectors are widely used therapeutics safely deliver genes into many cell types. Adenoviruses evolved use elaborate trafficking particle deconstruction processes, efficient progeny formation. Here, we discuss recent insights how human adenoviruses their double-stranded DN...

In this study, a molecular procedure for the detection of adenoviruses of animal origin was developed to evaluate the level of excretion of these viruses by swine and cattle and to design a test to facilitate the tracing of specific sources of environmental viral contamination. Two sets of oligonucleotides were designed, one to detect porcine adenoviruses and the other to detect bovine and ovin...

Adenoviruses can cause infectious diarrheal disease or respiratory infections in humans; 2 recent reports have indicated probable human infection with simian adenoviruses (SAdVs). To assess the possibility of animal-to-human transmission of SAdVs, we tested fecal samples from asymptomatic rhesus macaques housed in 5 primate facilities in the United States and cultured 23 SAdV isolates. Of these...

Production of an interferon-like substance was demonstrated in primary chick embryo cells inoculated with human adenoviruses. In this rescept various examined types behaved similarly. Treatment of the virus with homologous immune serum, heat or trypsin resulted in the loss of its inducing capacity. The presence of mycoplasma had no influence on the induction of the interferonlike substance due ...

by irnmunocdiffusion tests 312 serum samples from human were examined for the presence of antibodies to the group.reactive precipitatng antigen of adenoviruses. of the total sera from female, 19.6% and from male, 15.8% had antibody to the group reactive antigen prepared from bovine adenovirus type 3. no significant difference was demo., nstrated on account of sex or age. the results suggest tha...
