“…Further details concerning enteroviral diseases may be found in several general reviews on the role of nonpolio enteroviruses in human disease (11,44,64,70,88) and in reviews covering specialized topics such as viral myocardiopathies (26,49,51,88), coxsackievirus infections of newborns (26), virus diseases associated with cutaneous eruptions (106), respiratory disease viruses (38), congenital malformations associated with maternal viral infection (4), and the possible role of viruses in diabetes mellitus (16,75). Enteroviruses have also been reported to produce a persistent infection, particularly associated with a myalgic encephalomyelitis, also known as postviral fatigue syndrome (112).…”

The enteroviruses constitute one of the genera of the picornavirus family. The genus includes the polioviruses, the coxsackieviruses, and the echoviruses of humans, plus a number of enteroviruses of lower animals (e.g. monkeys, cattle, pigs, mice). Over 100 serotypes are recognized, of which the first to be discovered were the polioviruses. It was my good fortune to have been a scientist during the golden age of virology, when new techniques were being introduced into the field. These often led to the discovery of new viruses. This article details the isolation of the enteroviruses, their recognition as a separate genus of Picornaviridae, and my role in the process. Poliovirus, the most hazardous of the group, is almost gone from the world, but the other enteroviruses will be with us for some time. Several members of the Committee dealing with these agents-Enders, Sabin, Dalldorf, Syverton-have passed on, but the work of this Committee to which I was privileged to contribute will live long.

“…The nascent, cleavages, which have been assigned to host proteases in poliovirus infections (58,139) also occur in rhinovirus-infeetions. Successful inhibition of rhinovirus replication has been reported with increasing frequency in infected monolayers judging from the most recent reviews (42,53,127,132) and the Annual Reports in Medicinal Chemistry (3,25,26,67,111), the listings of recent Antiviral Chemotherapy Publications which appear on a bimonthly basis (116,117,118,119,120), and the information presented in 1.975 at the Symposium on Antivirals with Clinical Potential (84). These may represent, viral proteases, or activated cellular enzymes.…”

“…However, at this time there are many gaps in our knowledge of this sequence. Reviews in "outline" form are also available (53,129). Despite these limitations, there have been recent advances, since the extensive review of STOTT and KILLINGTO~ (127), particularly in the areas of early virus-cell interaction and the processing of viral proteins, and an over-all view of rhinovirus replication is beginning to take shape.…”

“…Data on the observed frequencies of these types have shown that some of them are very common among different populations and seem to infect children early in life, while others infect them later and are less frequent (Jackson & Muldoon, 1975). Many studies have been done to establish the frequencies of isolation and their role in causing disease.…”

SUMMARYThere are few data about the distribution ofneutralizing antibodies (NA) against adenovirus types in the Italian population, especially the high-numbered ones. We tested the sera from 453 children and 51 young adults to evaluate NA against adenovirus prototypes 1-33. Using the microneutralization test, 338 (74-6 %) of the children's sera were positive for at least one adenovirus type. Antibody to type 2 was the most frequently detected followed, in descending order, by antibody to types 5, 1 and 3. All these types are known to be associated with disease but antibody to type 7, a type also associated with disease, was less frequent than that to other serotypes such as 18 and 31, the pathogenicity of which in man is not clearly established. The antibody positivity rate rose with age for the more frequent types while it did not vary for the less frequent ones. The number of sera with NA against more than one adenovirus type increased with age. With regard to types 1-8, we found that their frequencies in Italy were similar to those found in the U.S.A.
