Origin and Serotypes
Based on their pathogenesis in humans and experimental animals, enteroviruses were originally divided into four species: poliovirus, coxsackie A virus, coxsackie B virus, and echovirus. However, further studies reported that some coxsackie and echoviruses have overlapping antigenic properties with respect to the diseases they caused in mice. As a result, they were all later described as enterovirus and numbered sequentially, beginning with EV68. Current classifications systems are based on molecular, antigenic as well as biological properties of these viruses. The enterovirus family is currently subgrouped into 5 categories: poliovirus, human enterovirus A (HEV-A), HEV-B, HEV-C and HEV-D. EV68 is one of the 3 serotypes of the HEV-D subgroup.[2]
Human rhinovirus 87 was isolated at the same time as EV68. Corn is a prototype of HRV87 and is very unique in its receptor quality. Cross neutralization and partial capsid sequence studies revealed that HRV-87 Corn belongs to the same group as EV68.[3] A study on 1962 isolates of EV68 reported the genome sequences of the 5′-non-translated (NTR) and 3D polymerase coding regions and complete VP1 capsid protein coding region sequence. These are closely related with the genome sequence of human rhinovirus 87 (HRV 87) and are consistent with the fact that the two viruses are closely related.
Identification of Isolates
Serotype specific rabbit antisera are used for typing of EV68 isolates. Partial sequencing of VP1 capsid gene, using primer 292 (5'-MIGCIGYIGARACNGG-3') and 222 (5'-CICCIGGIGGIAYRWACAT-3') is another method used for sequencing. The serotype is determined by comparing partial sequence of isolates with a database containing partial sequences of all known enterovirus serotypes.[4]
Two commercially available FDA approved multipathogen detection systems, Luminex xTAG RVP and Idaho Technologies Film Array Respiratory Panel are currently being used in the United States. Both techniques use broadly reactive primers that can pick both enterovirus as well as human rhinovirus.[5]
