  • Purpose: We evaluated the clinical features of croup in children according to viral etiology. Methods: This study enrolled pediatric patients with croup, who showed positive results on respiratory virus reverse transcriptase polymerase chain reaction performed between January 2012 and December 2017. We retrospectively reviewed the medical records. Results: A total of 179 patients (119 boys and 60 girls) were enrolled with the mean age of $18.9{\pm}14.7$ months. The viruses commonly identified were parainfluenza, respiratory syncytial virus, rhinovirus, and influenza. Among these 4 viruses, patients with rhinovirus infection showed significantly shorter fever and admission durations. Patients with parainfluenza infection showed significantly lower incidences of epinephrine nebulization and patients with influenza infections showed significantly higher incidences of steroid treatment. Conclusion: Clinical manifestations of croup differ according to causative viruses. Further studies should be conducted to evaluate the severity and prognosis of croup according to viral etiology.

  • 연구배경 : Rhinovirus(RV)는 상기도 감염의 중요한 원인균으로, 성인에서 기관지천식의 급성악화의 주요 원인이다. RV에 의한 기도염증반응의 기전은 잘 알려져 있지 않지만 interleukin(IL)-1, IL-6, IL-8 및 RANTES 등의 사이토카인을 매개로 일어난다. 염증반응에 관여하는 사이토카인의 발현은 적어도 전사인자 NF-${\kappa}B$에 의존성이므로 이러한 가설을 검증하기 위해 인체기도상피세포에서 RV에 의한 IL-8의 분비양상과 NF-${\kappa}B$ 활성화 단계에서 차단 제로 이용되는 N-acetyl-L-cysteine(NAC), PDTC, 및 TPCK를 투여하여 IL-8의 차단정도를 연구하여 NF-${\kappa}B$의 역할을 규명하고자 하였다. 방법 : 인체 기관지상피세포(BEAS-2B)와 RV type 14(RV14)를 ATCC로부터 구입하여 RV14 스톡을 만들고 역가를 측정하였다. 자극이 없는 대조군(배지단독)과 RV14를 상피세포에 감염시킨 후(MOI=1.0) 각각에서 2, 4, 6, 12, 24, 48 시간에 배양 상층액(SN)을 얻었다. 또한 대조군, RV14 자극군, NAC, PDTC, 및 TPCK 처치와 함께 RV14 자극을 준 군에서 각각 배양 12시간에 배양 상층액을 수집했다. SN에서 효소면역측정법으로 IL-8의 농도를 측정하였다. 결과 : 1) 상피세포는 RV14 자극이 없는 상태에서 배양시간의 경과에 따라 약간의 IL-8의 생산이 있었다. 2) 상피세포에 RV14 감염 후 4시간에서부터 IL-8이 증가하여 배양 48시간까지 지속적으로 증가하였다. 3) NAC와 PDTC는 RV14에 의한 IL-8의 생산을 유의하게 감소시켰으나, TPCK는 RV에 의한 IL-8의 생산을 억제하였지만 통계학적으로 유의하지 않았다. 4) NAC와 PDTC는 RV에 의한 IL-8 생성을 용량 의존적으로 억제하였다. 결론 : 일부 항산화제가 RV에 의한 기도염증반응을 차단할 수 있는 가능성을 제시하며 추후 NF-${\kappa}B$ 활성화 경로의 차단 부위에 대한 연구가 필요할 것으로 생각한다.

  • Purpose: The aim of the present study was to investigate the differences in lower airway inflammatory immune responses, including cellular responses and responses in terms of inflammatory mediators in bronchoalveolar lavage fluid (BALF) and the airway, to rhinovirus (RV) infection on asthma exacerbation by comparing a control and a murine asthma model, with or without RV infection. Methods: BALB/c mice were intraperitoneally injected with a crude extract of Dermatophagoides farinae (Df ) or phosphate buffered saline (PBS) and were subsequently intranasally treated with a crude extract of Df or PBS. Airway responsiveness and cell infiltration, differential cell counts in BALF, and cytokine and chemokine concentrations in BALF were measured 24 hours after intranasal RV1B infection. Results: RV infection increased the enhanced pause (Penh) in both the Df sensitized and challenged mice (Df mice) and PBS-treated mice (PBS mice) (P<0.05). Airway eosinophil infiltration increased in Df mice after RV infection (P<0.05). The levels of interleukin (IL) 13, tumor necrosis factor alpha, and regulated on activation, normal T cells expressed and secreted (RANTES) increased in response to RV infection in Df mice, but not in PBS mice (P<0.05). The level of IL-10 significantly decreased following RV infection in Df mice (P<0.05). Conclusion: Our findings suggest that the augmented induction of proinflammatory cytokines, Th2 cytokines, and chemokines that mediate an eosinophil response and the decreased induction of regulatory cytokines after RV infection may be important manifestations leading to airway inflammation with eosinophil infiltration and changes in airway responsiveness in the asthma model.

  • 본 연구는 무균성수막염 의심환자의 다양한 검체로부터 enterovirus의 진단을 위하여 real-time NASBA, 2 step RT-PCR 시험과 세포배양 시험을 각각 실시하여 각 시험법의 검출율, 특이도, 사용자 편리성, 시험소요 시간, 교차오염의 가능성 등을 비교 검토하였다. 비교시험 결과 전체 292건의 검체로부터 real-time NASBA에서 145건, 세포배양에서 101건, 2 step RT-PCR에서 86건이 양성으로 나타나 real-time NASBA가 가장 검출율이 높은 시험법임을 알 수 있었다. Enterovirus 외의 무균성수막염 원인바이러스에 대한 특이도 비교 시험결과 2 step RT-PCR 시험에서 rhinovirus 10건 중 1건이 위양성 반응을 나타내어 다른 시험법에 비해 특이도가 떨어지는 것으로 나타났다. Real-time NASBA는 하나의 튜브에서 증폭과 검출이 동시에 일어나 다른 시험과 비교하여 교차오염의 가능성이 낮으며 또한 시험 소요시간이 5시간 정도로 세포배양(5-14일 소요) 및 2 step RT-PCR(9시간소요) 에 비하여 신속하게 진단할 수 있어 일선병원이나 실험실에서 enterovirus를 검출을 위하여 적용할 수 있을 것으로 사료된다.

  • Asthma exacerbations are a major cause of intractable morbidity, increases in health care costs, and a greater progressive loss of lung function. Asthma exacerbations are most commonly triggered by respiratory viral infections, particularly with human rhinovirus (hRV). Respiratory viral infections are believed to affect the expression of indoleamine 2,3-dioxygenase (IDO), a limiting enzyme in tryptophan catabolism, which is presumed to alter asthmatic airway inflammation. Here, we explored the detailed role of IDO in the progression of asthma exacerbations using a mouse model for asthma exacerbation caused by hRV infection. Our results reveal that IDO is required to prevent neutrophilic inflammation in the course of asthma exacerbation caused by an hRV infection, as corroborated by markedly enhanced Th17- and Th1-type neutrophilia in the airways of IDO-deficient mice. This neutrophilia was closely associated with disrupted expression of tight junctions and enhanced expression of inflammasome-related molecules and mucin-inducing genes. In addition, IDO ablation enhanced allergen-specific Th17- and Th1-biased CD4+ T-cell responses following hRV infection. The role of IDO in attenuating Th17- and Th1-type neutrophilic airway inflammation became more apparent in chronic asthma exacerbations after repeated allergen exposures and hRV infections. Furthermore, IDO enzymatic induction in leukocytes derived from the hematopoietic stem cell (HSC) lineage appeared to play a dominant role in attenuating Th17- and Th1-type neutrophilic inflammation in the airway following hRV infection. Therefore, IDO activity in HSC-derived leukocytes is required to regulate Th17- and Th1-type neutrophilic inflammation in the airway during asthma exacerbations caused by hRV infections.

  • Human rhinoviruses (HRV) are one of the major causes of common cold in humans and are also associated with acute asthma and bronchial illness. Heat-shock protein 90 (Hsp90), a molecular chaperone, is an important host factor for the replication of single-strand RNA viruses. In the current study, we examined the effect of the Hsp90 inhibitor pochonin D, in vitro and in vivo, using a murine model of human rhinovirus type 1B (HRV1B) infection. Our data suggested that Hsp90 inhibition significantly reduced the inflammatory cytokine production and lung damage caused by HRV1B infection. The viral titer was significantly lowered in HRV1B-infected lungs and in Hela cells upon treatment with pochonin D. Infiltration of innate immune cells including granulocytes and monocytes was also reduced in the bronchoalveolar lavage (BAL) by pochonin D treatment after HRV1B infection. Histological analysis of the lung and respiratory tract showed that pochonin D protected the mice from HRV1B infection. Collectively, our results suggest that the Hsp90 inhibitor, pochonin D, could be an attractive antiviral therapeutic for treating HRV infection.

  • Background: This study was performed to investigate the epidemiologic and clinical features of acute respiratory viral infection in hospitalized children. Methods: From 2010 to 2012, we tested nasopharyngeal swab specimen in 1,584 hospitalized children with multiple real-time polymerase chain reactions to identify 10 kinds of respiratory viruses (including influenza virus A, B (FluA, FluB), respiratory syncytial virus (RSV), human metapneumovirus (MPV), adenovirus (AdV), human coronavirus (CoronaV), human enterovirus (HEV), human bocavirus (HBoV), parainfluenza virus (PIV), and human rhinovirus (Rhinovirus)). We analyzed the positive rate, annual and seasonal variations, and clinical features (respiratory tract and non-respiratory tract) according to the retrospective review of medical records. Results: Respiratory viruses were detected from 678 (42.8%) of 1,584 patients. The most common detected virus was RSV (35.0%), and then AdV (19.0%), HEV (18.1%). The critical period of the respiratory viral infection was during the first 12 months of a child's life. PIV increased by 8.4%, 12.1%, and 21.1% annually. Bronchiolitis was most frequently caused by RSV, and croup was frequently caused by PIV. The most common cause of meningitis was HEV. Hepatitis-associated respiratory virus was developed 111 in 678 cases. Conclusion: Although this study was confined to a single medical center for three years, we identified the epidemiology and clinical feature of respiratory viruses in Daegu from 2010 to 2012. Future surveillance will be necessary for annual and seasonal variations.

  • Objectives: Human rhinoviruses (HRVs) are the major cause of the common cold. Currently there is no registered, clinically effective, antiviral chemotherapeutic agent to treat diseases caused by HRVs. In this study, the antiviral activity of dexamethasone (DEX) against HRV1B was examined. Methods: The anti-HRV1B activity of DEX was assessed by sulforhodamine B assay in HeLa cells, and by RT-PCR in the lungs of HRV1B-infected mice. Histological evaluation of HRV1B-infected lungs was performed and a histological score was given. Anti-HRV1B activity of DEX via the glucocorticoid receptor (GCR)-dependent autophagy activation was assessed by blocking with chloroquine diphosphate salt or bafilomycin A1 treatment. Results: In HRV1B-infected HeLa cells, treatment with DEX in a dose-dependent manner, resulted in a cell viability of > 70% indicating that HRV1B viral replication was reduced by DEX treatment. HRV1B infected mice treated with DEX, had evidence of reduced inflammation and a moderate histological score. DEX treatment showed antiviral activity against HRV1B via GCR-dependent autophagy activation. Conclusion: This study demonstrated that DEX treatment showed anti-HRV1B activity via GCR-dependent autophagy activation in HeLa cells and HRV1B infected mice. Further investigation assessing the development of topical formulations may enable the development of improved DEX effectiveness.

  • In this study, the applications of the block copolymer thin films are introduced. For this purpose, we first obtained cylindrical nanodomains in polystyrene-block-poly(methyl methacrylate) copolymer perpendicularly oriented to a substrate. Then, nanoporous templates were prepared after removing the PMMA nanodomains by UV treatment. By using electropolymerization, high density nanowire arrays of conducting polymer of poly(pyrrole) and poly( 3-hexyl thiopene) were obtained and their electric properties were measured. Also, these nanoporous thin films were found to be very useful for the separation of human Rhinovirus type 14 (HRV 14), major pathogen of a common cold in humans, from the buffer solution.
