One of a group of viruses that can cause infections of the lung, stomach, intestine, and eyes. Symptoms resemble those of the common cold. There are no effective medications for treating adenovirus infection. Adenovirus infection typically does not cause death or permanent problems. More than40 types of adenoviruses have been recognized, all of whi [..]

Adenoviruses contain double-stranded DNA and are unusually stable, allowing them to survive for prolonged periods outside of the body. Adenoviruses infect membranes of the respiratory tract, eyes, int [..]

A virus that contains DNA. It causes respiratory infections that have similar symptoms to the common cold.

A group of viruses that cause respiratory tract and eye infections. Adenoviruses used in gene therapy are altered to carry a specific tumor-fighting gene.

  A group of DNA viruses which cause diseases in animals. In man, they produce acute respiratory tract infections with symptoms resembling common cold. They are used in gene cloning, as vectors for ex [..]

A nonenveloped (naked) icosahedral virus composed of a nucleocapsid and a double-stranded linear DNA genome.

(n) any of a group of viruses including those that in humans cause upper respiratory infections or infectious pinkeye

Adenoviruses are medium-sized viruses. They cause a wide range of illnesses in the lungs, stomach, intestines, and eyes, from mild respiratory infections in young children to life-threatening multi-or [..]

Have you ever had a sore throat, cough, or runny nose? Then you've probably had an adenovirus. This is one of a group of viruses or germs that can get into your respiratory tract, eyes, intestine [..]

A Family of non-enveloped Viruses infecting Mammals (Mastadenovirus) and Birds (Aviadenovirus) or both (Atadenovirus). Infections may be asymptomatic or result in a variety of Diseases.

A genus of Adenoviridae that infects Birds. The type species is Fowl adenovirus A.

Species of the genus Mastadenovirus, causing neurological Disease in Pigs.

Species of the genus Mastadenovirus associated with respiratory and enteric Infections in primate hosts.

A group of viruses that use DNA as their genetic material and commonly cause respiratory and eye infections. People with weakened immune systems, including people with HIV, have a greater risk for serious complications from an adenovirus infection than people with healthy immune systems. See Related Term(s): Virus

A virus of the family Adenoviridae.

A group of viruses that cause respiratory tract and eye infections. Adenoviruses used in gene therapy are altered to carry a specific tumor-fighting gene.

A common virus that causes colds and sore throats. A defective adenovirus (one that cannot grow or cause adenovirus infections in humans) is sometimes used as a vector in HIV vaccines.

a virus that can cause a spectrum of respiratory disease, as well as infection of the stomach and intestine (gastroenteritis), eyes (conjunctivitis), bladder (cystitis), and rash. Adenovirus respiratory diseases include a form of the common cold, pneumonia, croup, and bronchitis. Patients with compromised immune systems are especially susceptible t [..]

Large group of viruses first isolated from cultures of adenoids. The capsid is an icosahedron of 240 hexons and 12 pentons and is in the form of a base and a fiber with a terminal swelling; the genome consists of a single, linear molecule of double-stranded DNA. They cause various respiratory infections in humans. Some of the avian, bovine, human a [..]
