Abstract
Enteroviruses are members of Pichornaviridae family consisting of human enterovirus group A, B, C, and D as well as nonhuman enteroviruses. Human enterovirus type 71 (EV71) has emerged as a major cause of viral encephalitis Hand, foot, and mouth disease (HFMD) in children worldwide especially in the Asia‐Pacific region. EV71 and coxsackievirus A16 are two viruses responsible for HFMD which are members of group A enterovirus. The identified EV71 receptors provide useful information for understanding viral replication and tissue tropism. Host factors interact with the internal ribosome entry site (IRES) of EV71 to regulate viral translation. However, the specific molecular features of the EV71 genome that determine virulence remain unclear. Although an EV71 vaccine has been currently approved, there is no effective therapy for treating EV71 infected patients. Therefore, understanding the host-pathogen interaction could provide the knowledge in viral pathogenesis and further benefit in the anti-viral therapy development. The aim of this study was to investigate the latest findings about the interaction of viral ligands to the host receptor as well as the activation of immune related signalling pathways for the activation of innate immunity and involvement of different cytokines and chemokines in the host pathogen interaction of EV71 along with interaction of viral proteins, mainly 2A and 3C protease, and Interferons production/signaling pathway and their inhibitory effects.
