Bilateral entry and release of Middle East respiratory syndrome coronavirus induces profound apoptosis of human bronchial epithelial cells.
The newly emerged Middle East respiratory syndrome coronavirus (MERS-CoV) infects human bronchial epithelial Calu-3 cells. Unlike severe acute respiratory syndrome (SARS)-CoV, which exclusively infects and releases through the apical route, this virus can do so through either side of polarized Calu-3 cells. Infection results in profound apoptosis within 24 h irrespective of its production of ti...
متن کاملGenetics and epidemiology of Middle East Respiratory Syndrome-Coronavirus (MERS-CoV)
Background and aims: Middle East respiratory syndrome (MERS) is a viral respiratory illness caused by a coronavirus. After the primary onset of MERS in Saudi Arabia, in September 2015 cases began to increase. The number of laboratory-affirmed cases by MERS-CoV in the Middle East has been being increased recently. Methods: In this current review article, by using the terms “MERS” and “coronavir...
متن کاملComparative pathology of rhesus macaque and common marmoset animal models with Middle East respiratory syndrome coronavirus
Middle East respiratory syndrome (MERS), which is caused by a newly discovered coronavirus (CoV), has recently emerged. It causes severe viral pneumonia and is associated with a high fatality rate. However, the pathogenesis, comparative pathology and inflammatory cell response of rhesus macaques and common marmosets experimentally infected with MERS-CoV are unknown. We describe the histopatholo...
متن کاملIdentification of sialic acid-binding function for the Middle East respiratory syndrome coronavirus spike glycoprotein.
Middle East respiratory syndrome coronavirus (MERS-CoV) targets the epithelial cells of the respiratory tract both in humans and in its natural host, the dromedary camel. Virion attachment to host cells is mediated by 20-nm-long homotrimers of spike envelope protein S. The N-terminal subunit of each S protomer, called S1, folds into four distinct domains designated S1A through S1D Binding of ME...
متن کاملMERS-CoV
In 2002/03, a novel coronavirus (CoV) termed severe acute respiratory syndrome (SARS)-CoV emerged in China and caused an epidemic in which approximately 800 of 8000 cases died. Ten years later, a newly emerged Middle East respiratory syndrome (MERS)-CoV has been confirmed in 189 patients of which 82 had a fatal outcome. All MERS cases were linked to the Arabian Peninsula and to date thirteen ca...
