Streptococcus pneumoniae Enhances Human Respiratory Syncytial Virus Infection In Vitro and In Vivo
Human respiratory syncytial virus (HRSV) and Streptococcus pneumoniae are important causative agents of respiratory tract infections. Both pathogens are associated with seasonal disease outbreaks in the pediatric population, and can often be detected simultaneously in infants hospitalized with bronchiolitis or pneumonia. It has been described that respiratory virus infections may predispose for...
متن کاملThe role of influenza and parainfluenza infections in nasopharyngeal pneumococcal acquisition among young children.
BACKGROUND Animal models suggest that influenza infection favors nasopharyngeal acquisition of pneumococci. We assessed this relationship with influenza and other respiratory viruses in young children. METHODS A case-control study was nested within a prospective cohort study of acute respiratory illness (ARI) in Andean children <3 years of age (RESPIRA-PERU study). Weekly household visits wer...
متن کاملSynergistic stimulation of type I interferons during influenza virus coinfection promotes Streptococcus pneumoniae colonization in mice.
Pneumococcal infection of the respiratory tract is often secondary to recent influenza virus infection and accounts for much of the morbidity and mortality during seasonal and pandemic influenza. Here, we show that coinfection of the upper respiratory tract of mice with influenza virus and pneumococcus leads to synergistic stimulation of type I IFNs and that this impairs the recruitment of macr...

ABSTRACT Background and Objective: Streptococcus pneumoniae is one of the leading causes of death among children worldwide. Nasopharyngeal colonization in children can spread pneumococcal infections in the community. This study aimed to evaluate the prevalence of S. pneumoniae strains isolated from healthy pharyngeal carriers less than 5 yea...
متن کاملEvaluation of bocavirus colonization in children with asthma
Introduction: the rate of colonization of bocavirus (a newly recognized respiratory virus) was assessed in children with asthma and non-asthmatic condition due to the importance of bocavirus in preventing and exacerbating of childhood asthma. Materials and Methods: In this study, 142 samples of nasopharyngeal swabs were assessed (71 with asthma and 71 without asthma). Viral nucleic acid was ext...
