Overview
Parechovirus is a viral genus in the family Picornaviridae. The genus is composed of two species: Human parechovirus and Ljungan virus.[1]
Six types of human parechovirus have been identified: human parechovirus 1 (formerly echovirus 22), human parechovirus 2 (formerly echovirus 23), and human parechoviruses 3, 4, 5 and 6, respectively.[2][3][4] Human parechoviruses cause mild, gastrointestinal or respiratory illness, but have been implicated in cases of myocarditis and encephalitis. Human parechoviruses are commonly spread and more than 95% of humans are infected by human parechoviruses early in life, within two to five years of age.[5][6]
The Ljungan virus was first isolated from bank voles (Myodes glareolus, formerly Clethrionomys glareolus).[7] Ljungan virus has been proposed as a zoonotic virus, associated with diabetes and intrauterine fetal death in human.[8][9] However, the data regarding these features is currently limited and needs to be confirmed.
