Summary

Our primary objective is to set up the Human Rhinovirus (HRV)-model in our centre. In addition, to facilitate future clinical trials, we want to determine optimal read-out parameters and read-out time points for experimental HRV infection in healthy volunteers. Furthermore, we want to analyze to what extent HRV can cause systemic immune effects, and we want to test if subjects with antibodies against HRV can be re-infected with the same virus, and if the presence of HRV antibodies influences the local clinical and immunological response upon infection. Additionally, to gain insight in the immune modulating properties of HRV, we want to investigate the immunological response to a HRV re-infection within one week to determine if there are mechanisms that provide immediate protection against re-infection. This facilitates a cross-over design of future pharmacological intervention-trials. Furthermore, we want to investigate the capacity of HRV infection to modulate the systemic immune response by analyzing the response of leukocytes ex vivo stimulated with different stimuli. Moreover, we want to evaluate the effects of HRV-16 infection on the host transcriptome and metabolome. Finally, The influence of HRV-16 infection on nasal and gut microbiota will be assessed.
