Adenoviruses were first isolated in 1953 by Rowe and co-workers from

human adenoids removed at surgery.
There are 51 immunologically distinct human adenovirus serotypes - (6
species: Human adenovirus A through F). Many serotypes are not linked
to a specific disease.
Human adenoviruses have a capsid with icosahedral symmetry.
Rodlike structures with knobs at the ends protrude from the capsid.

knob protein on adenovirus.]
The genome of the virus is a double-stranded DNA linear molecule.

When infecting cells in vitro, adenoviruses are capable of lytic infection,

latent infection, and transformation.
Because of the ability to transform cells and to produce tumours in
rodents, they have been considered possible human tumour viruses, but
up to now there has been no evidence that links adenoviruses to human
tumours.
Adenoviruses are associated with the following diseases : coryza and
pharyngitis in infants ; upper respiratory disease, pharyngoconjunctival
fever, and hemorrhagic cystitis in children, acute respiratory disease and
pneumonia in young adults ; and epidermic keratoconjunctivitis and
pneumonia in immunocompromised and normal adults.

These foci of bronchiolitis are surrounded by areas of consolidation,

hemorrhage, and atelectasis.
At low power the appearance may be confused with the bacterial
bronchopneumonia .
In the areas of consolidation and among the necrotizing bronchiolar
epithelial lesions, cells with intranuclear inclusion bodies may be found.
In the early stages cytopathic effects are manifested by granular, slightly
enlarged nuclei containing eosinophilic bodies intermixed with clumped
basophilic chromatin.
The eosinophilic bodies coalesce, forming larges masses to end as a
central, granular, ill-defined mass surrounded by a halo.
The second type of inclusion, which is more common and probably
corresponds to a late-stage infected cell, is designated the smudge
cell.
The nucleus is rounded or ovoid, large, and completely occupied by a
granular amphophilic to deeply basophilic mass.
There is no halo, and the nuclear membrane and nucleus are indistinct.
Electron microscopy of the lung demonstrates viral particles in the
bronchiolar and alveolar lining cells.
