Viral infection accounts for 90% of acute respiratory tract infections. The virus mainly infects the upper respiratory tract, which can cause colds, pharyngitis, laryngotracheal bronchitis, etc. Viral pneumonia is usually caused by the downward invasion of the upper respiratory tract virus. The types of viruses that cause viral pneumonia include influenza virus, parainfluenza virus, cytomegalovirus, adenovirus, rhinovirus, coronavirus, and some enteroviruses. And viral pneumonia can lead to major outbreaks, such as the epidemic caused by coronavirus (COVID-19) pneumonia, which has a significant impact on global health. Severe patients with viral pneumonia are usually accompanied by multiple organ failure and sepsis, with high mortality. Omics mainly includes genomics, proteomics, metabolomics, transcriptomics, lipidomics, immunohistochemistry, glycomics, etc. With the development of omics technology in recent years, it provides a new prospect for exploring the clinical characteristics and pathogenesis of diseases.
This Research topic aims to compare and analyzes the samples of patients, animal models with respiratory virus infectious diseases, multiple organ failure or sepsis, or susceptible people by using omics of multi-omics technology to explore the clinical data characteristic and further clarify the mechanisms.
We aim to accumulate Original Research and Review articles focusing on, but not limited to:
— Diagnosis of respiratory viral infectious diseases using omics or a combination of multi-omics techniques.
— Determine the mechanisms of respiratory virus infectious disease pathogenesis using omics or multi-omics techniques.
— Identify the targets of some treatments and interventions for respiratory virus infectious diseases using omics or multi-omics techniques.
— Surveillance of pathogens in the clinical setting, natural environments, and susceptible populations using omics or a combination of multi-omics techniques.
