Lecturer Prof. S.I. Klymnyuk
Picornaviruses are small (20-30 nm) and nonenveloped and contain
a single-stranded RNA genome (MW 2-3 x 106). The nucleocapsid
has cubic symmetry and contains 32 spherical subunits
(capsomeres). Virus maturation takes place in the cytoplasm.
Enteroviruses and rhinoviruses commonly infect humans.
Enterovirus. Enteroviruses exist in many animals, including humans,
cattle, pigs, and mice. Enteroviruses of human origin include the
following:
(1) Polioviruses, types 1-3.
(2) Coxsackie viruses of group A, types 1-24.
(3) Coxsackie viruses of group B, types 1-6.
(4) Echoviruses, types 1-34.
(5) Enteroviruses, types 68-71. Since 1969, new enterovirus types
have been assigned enterovirus type numbers rather than being
subclassified as coxsackie-viruses or echoviruses. The vernacular
names of the previously identified enteroviruses have been retained.

Epidemic Poliomyelitis Virus
Poliomyelitis is an acute infectious disease that in its serious
form affects the central nervous system. The destruction of
motor neurons in the spinal cord results in flaccid paralysis.
However, most poliovirus infections are subclinical.
In spite of the fact that poliomyelitis is one of the most ancient
contagious diseases, its infectious nature was ascertained only
in 1905 by O. Wickman who investigated a poliomyelitis
epidemic in Sweden.
In 1908-09, K. Landsteiner and E. Popper proved poliomyelitis
to be of viral etiology. They produced a febrile disease in
monkeys by injecting an emulsion prepared from the spinal
cord of a fatal case of poliomyelitis. The animals displayed
typical manifestations of poliomyelitis accompanied with flaccid
paralysis. The virus was isolated in tissue culture in 1949 by
J. Enders.
Poliomielitis virus
POLIOMYELITIS
• “Picornavirus”
• 3 types: Poliovirus
1,2,3
• Ingested, spread by
faeco-oral route:
Commoner in areas of
poor sanitation
• Infants protected by
maternal antibodies
Virus Replication. After attaching to virus receptors
(which seem to be controlled in humans by genes on
chromosome 19). Poliovirus RNA serves both as its
own messenger RNA and as the source of the
genetic information. Viral protein is synthesized on
polysomes held together by viral RNA.
Guanidine in concentrations greater than 1 mM and
2-(alpha-hydroxybenzyl)-benzimidazole
inhibit
poliovirus multiplication in tissue culture. Guanidine
acts by inhibiting the release of newly made viral
RNA from the replicative complex.
Important Characteristics
• D or N antigen:
Type specific
(CFA)
• C or H antigen:
Common
antigen (CFA)
• Type 1-3
Resistance. The virus is extremely resistant to
photodynamic inactivation. It survives in sterile water
at room temperature for a period of more than 100
days, in milk for 90 days, in faeces in the cold for
more than 6 months, and in sewage for several
months. It withstands exposure to 0.5-1 per cent
phenol solutions and remains viable for several
weeks at pH 3.8-8.5.
The poliomyelitis virus is sensitive to calcium chlorate
lime, chloramine, formalin, potassium permanganate,
and hydrogen peroxide solutions. It is rapidly killed on
boiling.
Pathogenesis
1. Source of infection: Apparent and subclinical
patients
2. Incubation: 7-14 days
3. Pathogenesis: Only much less than 0.1% subjects
exposed to polio virus form the flaccid paralysis
Transmission
• Fecal – oral route: poor hygiene, dirty
diapers (especially in day-care settings)
• Ingestion via contaminated food and water
• Contact with infected hands
• Inhalation of infectious aerosols
Clinical Syndromes
• Asymptomatic illness: 90%
• Abortive poliomyelitis, the minor illness: 5%
infected people
• Nonparalytic poliomyelitis or aseptic meningitis:
1%-2% of patients with poliovirus infections.
• Paralytic polio, the major illness: 0.1% to 2%of
persons with poliovirus

Lab Diagnosis
• Definitive diagnosis is made by osolation of the
virus from stool, CFS, oropharyngeal secretions
• Cell culture involves fibroblastic MRC-5 cells
• CPE is usually evident within 36 hours
• Serotyping is based on neutralization of CPE by
standardized antisera using intersecting pool
followed by specific sera.

COXSACKIEVIRUSES
The coxsackieviruses comprise a large subgroup of the
enteroviruses. They produce a variety of illnesses in
human beings, including aseptic meningitis, herpangina,
pleurodynia, hand, foot, and mouth disease, myo- and
pericarditis, common colds, and possibly diabetes.
Coxsackieviruses have been divided into 2 groups, A and
B, having different pathogenic potentials for mice.
Coxsackie B viruses are the most commonly identified
causative agents of viral heart disease in humans.
Properties of the Viruses

enteroviruses, with a diameter of 28 nm.

Group A viruses produce widespread myositis in the
skeletal muscles of newborn mice, resulting in flaccid
paralysis without other observable lesions.
Group B viruses may produce focal myositis, encephalitis,
and, most typically, necrotizing steatitis involving mainly fetal
fat lobules. The genetic makeup of inbred strains determines
their susceptibility to coxsackie B viruses. Some B strains
also produce pancreatitis, myocarditis, endocarditis, and
hepatitis in both suckling and adult mice. Corticosteroids
may enhance the susceptibility of older mice to infection of
the pancreas. Normal adult mice tolerate infections with
group B coxsackieviruses. However, severely malnourished
or immunodeficient mice have greatly enhanced
susceptibility.

Clinical
Findings.
The
incubation
period
of
coxsackievirus infection ranges from 2 to 9 days. The
clinical manifestations of infection with various coxsackie
viruses are diverse and may present as distinct disease
entities.
A. Herpangina: This disease is caused by certain group A
viruses (2, 4, 5, 6, 8, 10), There is an abrupt onset of fever,
sore throat, anorexia, dysphagia, vomiting, or abdominal
pain. The pharynx is usually hyperaemic, and
characteristic discrete vesicles occur on the anterior pillars
of the fauces, the palate, uvula, tonsils, or tongue. The
illness is self-limited and most frequent in small children.
B. Summer Minor Illnesses: Coxsackieviruses are often
isolated from patients with acute febrile illnesses of short
duration that occur during the summer or fall and are
without distinctive features.
Exanthems – Rubelliform rashes
C. Pleurodynia (Epidemic Myalgia, Bornholm
Disease): This disease is caused by group B viruses.
Fever and chest pain are usually abrupt in onset but are
sometimes preceded by malaise, headache, and
anorexia. The chest pain may be located on either side or
substernally, is intensified by movement, and may last
from 2 days to 2 weeks. Abdominal pain occurs in
approximately half of cases, and in children this may be
the chief complaint. The illness is self-limited, and
recovery is complete, although relapses are common.
D. Aseptic Meningitis and Mild Paresis: This syndrome
is caused by all types of group B coxsackieviruses and by
coxsackie viruses A7, A9, and A24. Fever, malaise,
headache, nausea, and abdominal pain are common early
symptoms. Signs of meningeal irritation, stiff neck or back,
and vomiting may appear 1-2 days later. The disease
sometimes progresses to mild muscle weakness
suggestive of paralytic poliomyelitis. Patients almost
always recover completely from nonpoliovirus paresis.
Early in aseptic meningitis, the cerebrospinal fluid shows
pleocytosis (up to 500 cells/mcL) with up to 50%
polymorphonuclear neutrophils.
E. Neonatal Disease: Neonatal disease may be caused
by group B coxsackieviruses. with lethargy, feeding
difficulty, and vomiting, with or without fever. In severe
cases, myocarditis or pericarditis can occur within the
first 8 days of life; it may be preceded by a brief episode
of diarrhea and anorexia. Cardiac and respiratory
embarrassment are indicated by tachycardia, dyspnea,
cyanosis, and changes in the electrocardiogram. The
clinical course may be rapidly fatal, or the patient may
recover completely. The disease may sometimes he
acquired transplacentally. Myocarditis has also been
caused by some group A coxsackieviruses.
F. Colds: A number of the enteroviruses have been
associated with common colds; among these are
coxsackieviruses A10, A21, A24, and B3.
G. Hand, Foot, and Mouth Disease: This disease has
been associated particularly with coxsackievirus A16, but
A4, A5, A7, A9, and A10 have also been implicated.
Virus may be recovered riot only from the stool and
pharyngeal secretions but also from vesicular fluidThe syndrome is characterized by oral and pharyngeal
ulcerations and a vesicular rash of the palms and soles
that may spread to the arms and legs. Vesicles heal
without crusting, which clinically differentiates them from
the vesicles of herpes- and pox-viruses. The rare deaths
are caused by pneumonia.
Hand-foot-and-mouth disease

disease: mostly coxackie A

H. Myocardiopathy: Coxsackie virus B infections are
increasingly recognized as a cause of primary myocardial disease
in adults as well as children. Coxsackieviruses of group A and
echoviruses have been implicated to a lesser degree.
In experimental animals, the severity of acute viral
myocardiopathy is greatly increased by vigorous exercise,
hydrocortisone,
alcohol
consumption,
pregnancy,
and
undernutrition and is greater in males than in females. In human
illnesses, these factors may similarly increase the severity of the
disease.
I. Acute Hemorrhagic Conjunctivitis: Coxsackievirus A24 is
one of the agents that can cause this disease (see below).
J. Diabetes Mellitus: Serologic studies suggest an
association of diabetes of abrupt onset with past infection by
Coxsackievirus B4 and perhaps other members of the B
group. Experimental studies support the findings in humans.
Another picornavirus, encephalomyocarditis virus, induces
lesions in mice in the pancreatic islets of Langerhans as well
as an accompanying diabetes.
K. Swine Vesicular Disease: The agent of this disease is an
enterovirus that antigenically is related to Coxsackievirus B5.
Furthermore, the swine virus can also infect humans.
Immunity. In humans, Nt and CF antibodies are
transferred passively from mother to fetus. Adults have
antibodies against more types of coxsackieviruses than
do children, which indicates that multiple experience with
these viruses is common and increases with age.
ECHOVIRUSES
The echoviruses (enteric cytopathogenic human orphan
viruses) are grouped together because they infect the
human enteric tract and because they can be recovered
from humans only by inoculation of certain tissue cultures.
Over 30 serotypes are known, but not all cause human
illness. Aseptic meningitis, febrile illnesses with or without
rash, common colds, and acute hemorrhagic conjunctivitis
are among the diseases caused by echoviruses.

RHINOVIRUS GROUP
Rhinoviruses are isolated commonly from the nose and
throat but very rarely from feces. These viruses, as well as
coronaviruses and some reo-,
adeno-, entero-,
parainfluenza, and influenza viruses, cause upper
respiratory tract infections, including the "common cold."
General Properties: Rhinoviruses are picornaviruses
similar to enteroviruses but differing from them in having a
CsCI buoyant density of 1.40 g/mL and in being acid-labile.
Animal Susceptibility and Growth of Virus. These viruses
are infectious only for humans and chimpanzees. They have
been grown in cultures of human embryonic lung fibroblasts
(WI-38) and in organ cultures of ferret and human trachea!
epithelium. They are grown best at 33 °C in rolled cultures.
