The high mortality rate of MERS-CoV focused attention on the ecology of the virus. It has been found that MERS-CoV belongs to the group C lineage of the genus <italic>Betacoronavirus</italic>. Coronavirus surveillance studies in different populations of bats have suggested that they are probable reservoirs for this novel virus, and phylogenetic analysis of both the spike (S1) and RNA-dependent RNA polymerase proteins of MERS-CoV have revealed that it is related to bat viruses. Recently, the MERS-CoV and its neutralizing antibodies were detected in dromedary camels. Despite the limited number of reported cases of person-to-person transmission, the rapid evolution of the virus poses a continuous threat to humans worldwide. This paper reviews the current state of knowledge regarding the virology, clinical spectrum, evolution, diagnosis and treatment of MERS-CoV infections.</p></div></front><back><div1

The high mortality rate of MERS-CoV focused attention on the ecology of the virus. It has been found that MERS-CoV belongs to the group C lineage of the genus <italic>Betacoronavirus</italic>. Coronavirus surveillance studies in different populations of bats have suggested that they are probable reservoirs for this novel virus, and phylogenetic analysis of both the spike (S1) and RNA-dependent RNA polymerase proteins of MERS-CoV have revealed that it is related to bat viruses. Recently, the MERS-CoV and its neutralizing antibodies were detected in dromedary camels. Despite the limited number of reported cases of person-to-person transmission, the rapid evolution of the virus poses a continuous threat to humans worldwide. This paper reviews the current state of knowledge regarding the virology, clinical spectrum, evolution, diagnosis and treatment of MERS-CoV infections.</p></abstract><kwd-group xml:lang="en"><title>Keywords</title><kwd>Arabian Peninsula</kwd><kwd>Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome</kwd><kwd>Camel Milk</kwd><kwd>Dromedary Camel</kwd><kwd>Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome Coronavirus</kwd></kwd-group><custom-meta-group><custom-meta><meta-name>issue-copyright-statement</meta-name><meta-value>© Springer-Verlag Wien 2014</meta-value></custom-meta></custom-meta-group></article-meta></front><body><sec id="Sec1"><title>Introduction</title><p>Coronaviruses (CoV) are able to infect humans, birds and many animal species [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR68">68</xref>]. In humans, coronavirus infections result mostly in mild respiratory, enteric and neurological diseases [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR65">65</xref>, <xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR66">66</xref>]. In June 2012, a novel coronavirus was detected in a Saudi patient who had experienced pneumonia and renal failure. Virus genome sequencing demonstrated that the virus belonged to lineage C of the genus <italic>Betacoronavirus</italic> and was phylogenetically related to the bat coronaviruses HKU4 and HKU5, which had previously been found in lesser bamboo bats and Japanese Pipistrelle bats in Hong Kong.</p><p>In September 2012, another patient from Qatar with a similar clinical picture also proved positive by means of real-time reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction (rRT-PCR) assay [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR5">5</xref>]. This finding was followed by the detection of a closely related virus in archival samples from two Jordanian patients who died in April 2012 after unexplained respiratory illness [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR13">24</xref>].</p><p>The outbreaks of severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus (SARS-CoV) infection in the year 2003 and the Middle East respiratory syndrome coronavirus (MERS-CoV) infection in 2012 showed that these viruses can cause fatal human disease (death rates were ~11 % and ~43 %, respectively) [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR6">6</xref>, <xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR9">9</xref>]. Before the discovery of MERS-CoV, five coronaviruses were known to infect human populations. HCoV-229E and HCoV-OC43 were identified in the early 1960s as the causative agents of respiratory infection [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR29">29</xref>, <xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR64">64</xref>] while SARS-CoV, HCoV-NL63 and HCoV-HKU1 were identified in 2003, 2004 and 2005, respectively [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR52">53</xref>].</p><p>Most of the emerging infectious pathogens originated from animals. Betacoronavirus A, OC43, possibly jumped from a bovine source in the 1890s [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR69">69</xref>] while betacoronavirus B, the SARS virus, jumped from bats to civets, then to humans [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR36">37</xref>]. Like its counterparts, the emergence of MERS-CoV may constitute another model of interspecies transmission that has yet to be characterized in detail. The current article provides a review of recent findings and speculations regarding MERS-CoV.</p></sec><sec id="Sec2"><title>Taxonomy</title><p>Coronaviruses belong to the order <italic>Nidovirales</italic>, family <italic>Coronaviridae</italic> and subfamily <italic>Coronavirinae</italic>, which consists of four genera: <italic>Alphacoronavirus</italic>, <italic>Betacoronavirus</italic>, <italic>Deltacoronavirus</italic> and <italic>Gammacoronavirus</italic>. Their taxonomy is based on antigenic relationships [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR43">44</xref>, <xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR48">49</xref>] and has subsequently been largely supported by gene sequencing [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR34">35</xref>]. Human coronaviruses belong to two genera: <italic>Alphacoronavirus</italic> and <italic>Betacoronavirus</italic>. HCoV-229E and HCoV-NL63 belong to the genus <italic>Alphacoronavirus</italic>. The genus <italic>Betacoronavirus</italic> consists of four lineages, A-D. SARS-CoV belongs to lineage B, but HCoV-OC43 and HCoV-HKU1 belong to lineage A. Bat coronaviruses (BtCoV) belong to lineages C and D of the betacoronaviruses. The sequencing data has suggested that the sixth discovered human coronavirus, MERS-CoV, belongs to lineage C betacoronaviruses. Based on the RdRp, a bat-derived isolate, BtCoV/8-724/Pip_pyg/ROU/2009, shows 98 % identity to MERS-CoV [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR1">1</xref>]. Comparison of the S1 and RdRp gene sequences of different coronaviruses from different species with those from MERS-CoV, including available bat coronaviruses, has been conducted (Table <xref rid="Tab1" ref-type="table">1</xref>). Unfortunately, no available spike protein sequence of BtCoV/8-724/Pip_pyg/ROU/2009 was available in the GenBank database and therefore this was not included in the comparison. In phylogenetic trees, MERS-CoV clearly clustered with lineage C of the genus <italic>Betacoronavirus</italic> (Fig. <xref rid="Fig1" ref-type="fig">1</xref>), relatively close to BtCoV/133/2005 and BtCoV HKU4-2, which had the highest S1 amino acid sequence identity to MERS-CoV (60 %); however, the amino acid sequence identity to MERS-CoV was higher (up to 94 %) when the RdRp of BtCoV HKU5 and BtCoV HKU5-3 were compared. Interestingly, Beta CoV/KW2E-F93/Nyc_spec/ GHA/2010 showed 40 % and 92 % S1 and RdRp amino acid sequence identity to MERS-CoV, respectively (Table <xref rid="Tab1" ref-type="table">1</xref>). This finding suggests that genotyping based on the polymerase gene should be followed by confirmation based on S1 genotyping (Table <xref rid="Tab1" ref-type="table">1</xref>, Fig. <xref rid="Fig1" ref-type="fig">1</xref>). The phylogenetic relationship of the Saudi Arabian MERS-CoV sequences revealed that they are subdivided into two main clades: clade A, comprising EMC/2012 and Jordan-N3 and clade B, comprising Munich/AbuDhabi, England-Qatar, Riyadh-3, Bisha-1, Riyadh-1 cluster, Hafr-AlBatin-1, Riyadh-2, Buraidah-1 and England2-HPA [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR16">15</xref>].<table-wrap id="Tab1"><label>Table 1</label><caption><p>Multisequence alignment of the S1 protein and RdRp of MERS-CoV with those of different coronaviruses</p></caption><graphic position="anchor" xlink:href="705_2014_1995_Tab1_HTML" id="MO1"></graphic></table-wrap><fig id="Fig1"><label>Fig. 1</label><caption><p>Phylogenetic analysis of the S1 and RNA-dependent RNA polymerase of MERS-CoV in comparison to those of selected coronaviruses from the GenBank database.

Currently, the Coronavirus Study Group (CSG) of the International Committee on Taxonomy of Viruses has decided to refer to the new coronavirus as Middle East respiratory syndrome coronavirus (MERS-CoV) [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR20">19</xref>].</p></sec><sec id="Sec4"><title>Viral genome and proteins</title><p>The genome structure of MERS-CoV (30,119 nt) is similar to that of other coronaviruses. RNAs are capped and polyadenylated with the 5′ two-thirds of the genome encoding the non-structural proteins (NSPs) involved in viral replication and the remaining 3′ third of the genome encoding the structural genes in addition to four accessory genes interspersed within the structural gene region [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR67">67</xref>]. At the 5′ end of the genome there is a leader sequence (67 nt), which is followed by an untranslated region (UTR). At the 3′ end of the RNA genome there is another UTR, followed by a poly(A) sequence of variable length. Transcription-regulatory sequences (TRSs: 5′ AACGAA 3′) are found at the 3′ end of the leader sequence and at different positions upstream of genes in the genomic 3′-proximal domain of MERS-CoV [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR67">67</xref>]. The MERS-CoV genome contains at least 10 predicted open reading frames (ORFs): ORF1a, ORF1b, S, 3, 4a, 4b, 5, E, M and N [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR67">67</xref>], with sixteen predicted nonstructural proteins being encoded by ORF1a/b. Moreover, several unique group-specific ORFs that are not essential for virus replication are encoded by MERS-CoV [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR59">60</xref>]. The functions of these group-specific ORFs are unknown; however, by analogy to other coronaviruses, they may encode structural proteins or interferon antagonist genes [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR63">63</xref>]. Open reading frames ORF2, -6, -7 and -8a are translated from subgenomic mRNAs predicted to encode the four canonical structural genes: a 180/90-kDa spike glycoprotein (S), a ∼23-kDa membrane glycoprotein (M), a small envelope protein (E) and a ∼50-kDa nucleocapsid protein (N), respectively [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR67">67</xref>].</p><p>The spike (S) glycoprotein of coronaviruses is a heavily glycosylated, petal-shaped, large protein on the surface of the virion. The S glycoprotein is cleaved by a cellular protease into S1 and S2 subunits, which remain noncovalently on the viral envelop prior to fusion activation [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR26">26</xref>, <xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR34">35</xref>]. S proteins of the alphacoronavirus group are not cleaved [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR19">18</xref>]; however, cleavage of MERS-CoV-S protein by trypsin, TMPRSS2 or -4 or cathepsin L is required to activate the membrane fusion activity of S, leading to virus entry and syncytium formation [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR53">54</xref>]. The S1 protein forms the globular portion of the spikes and possesses sequences that are responsible for receptor binding on the surface of host cells. S1 sequences are variable, with various degrees of deletion and substitutions among different coronavirus strains or isolates. Mutations in S1 sequences have been associated with altered antigenicity and pathogenicity of the virus [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR4">4</xref>, <xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR38">39</xref>]. Meanwhile, S2 sequences constitute the stalk of the spikes and are less variable [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR18">17</xref>]. Recently, analysis of the MERS-CoV genomes has revealed the expected accumulation of genetic diversity, including changes in the S protein [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR16">15</xref>].</p></sec><sec id="Sec5"><title>MERS-CoV receptor</title><p>Dipeptidyl peptidase 4 (DPP4) (or so-called CD26) is a 766-aa type II transmembrane glycoprotein that has been shown to be the functional receptor for MERS-CoV in permissive cell lines [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR55">56</xref>]. Moreover, non-permissive cell lines become susceptible to virus infection upon the exogenous expression of this receptor. DPP4 is also expressed on the cell surface in the kidneys, lungs, small intestine, liver, parotid gland, spleen, testes, prostate and activated leukocytes [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR42">43</xref>, <xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR45">46</xref>, <xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR55">56</xref>], which explains the capacity of MERS-CoV to infect cells of these organs [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR55">56</xref>]. Interestingly, MERS-CoV can bind to bat DPP4 [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR55">56</xref>].</p></sec><sec id="Sec6"><title>Clinical features</title><p>Globally, a total of 179 cases with 76 fatalities had been reported up to 21 January 2014. The distribution of the cases is as follows: two from Jordan, nine from Qatar, twelve from the United Arab Emirates, three from Tunisia, three from Oman, two from Kuwait, three from the UK, two from France and one from Italy, with the rest (n:142) coming from Saudi Arabia. Of the Saudi Arabian cases, three were from Jeddah, sixty one from Riyadh, one from Al-Qasim, one from Bisha, seven from Asir, five from Al-Taif, eight from Hafr El-Batin, seven from Medina, two from Al-Jouf, one from Wadi Al-Dawaser and forty six from the Eastern district [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR13">24</xref>, <xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR51">52</xref>, <xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR60">61</xref>, <xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR75">75</xref>]. All index cases in Europe had a history of travel to the Middle East. The age range was from 2 to 94 years and the recorded case fatality was higher in males than in females: 52 and 24 % respectively [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR49">50</xref>]. In confirmed cases of MERS-CoV, individuals developed acute, serious respiratory tract disease. Of the first 47 cases in Saudi Arabia, 89 % required management in intensive care and 72 % required mechanical ventilation [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR2">2</xref>]. Typical symptoms have included fever, cough and breathing difficulties, myalgia, nausea, vomiting and diarrhoea. An earlier fatal case that was transferred from the UAE to Germany showed symptoms of rapid onset of non-productive cough, then pneumonia and thrombocytopaenia until day 14, when the patient suffered from renal insufficiency, requiring dialysis [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR23">23</xref>]. Renal insufficiency or failure has indeed been noted for many MERS patients; however, it is unclear whether this is due to the infection or is a side-effect of anti-microbial agents and other medications used in treatment, or indeed whether it possibly influences disease progression, or some combination of these factors. A cluster of cases in a hospital in Saudi Arabia was centred on a dialysis unit, with 13 of 25 probable and confirmed cases involving end-stage renal disease [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR3">3</xref>]. The number of asymptomatic cases in which only mild symptoms were experienced has increased recently. Fifteen mild cases have been identified through contact tracing in late June and July 2013, including four health-care workers in Saudi Arabia [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR71">71</xref>, <xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR76">76</xref>]. Two out of three Tunisian patients have also suffered from a mild version of the disease, with complete recovery [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR75">75</xref>]. To date, 46 subclincal cases of MERS-CoV were reported worldwide [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR75">75</xref>]. Severe cases of MERS-CoV infection have tended to be recorded in older patients with underlying conditions, while milder cases have been recorded in younger persons who experienced contact infection. Underlying comorbidity included diabetes, chronic renal disease, chronic heart disease, hypertension, chronic pulmonary disease [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR2">2</xref>], malignancy [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR61">30</xref>] and receiving a renal transplant [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR28">28</xref>]. Co-infection with other pathogens, including influenza A virus, parainfluenza virus, herpes simplex virus and pneumococcus, has been reported [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR74">74</xref>]. It can be speculated that co-infections serve to aggravate the clinical consequences of MERS infection.</p></sec><sec id="Sec7"><title>Virus morbidity</title><p>Coronaviruses spread very rapidly and effectively among the susceptible hosts, and MERS-CoV morbidity is assumed to be higher than recorded. It is possible that MERS-CoV induces mild to moderate infections in healthy people; however, severe disease occurs in immunocompromised patients. This assumption can be discounted or confirmed once virological and/or serological diagnostic tests specific for MERS-CoV are adopted routinely. The first cases of MERS-CoV infection outside the Arabian Peninsula have usually been associated with a history of travel to those countries where there is no evidence of contact with laboratory-confirmed infected patients. The only logical explanation for the widespread occurrence of the MERS-CoV virus in these countries is that MERS-CoV can induce mild to moderate disease across a widespread epidemiological base that does not necessitate hospitalization, as speculated above. Interestingly, in terms of testing for the disease, in the case of one patient, false negative result was recorded from nasopharyngeal swab, even though positive result was obtained in a pulmonary lavage sample from the same patient [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR57">58</xref>]. Lower respiratory tract samples are therefore to be recommended whenever possible and nasopharyngeal samples should only be used when lower respiratory tract samples are not available.</p></sec><sec id="Sec8"><title>Virus tracking and natural reservoirs</title><p>The rapid identification of the causative agent represents the basis for an effective response for disease control. The fact that respiratory diseases rarely result from a single entity makes the rapid identification of novel causative agents complicated; however, in the case of MERS-CoV infection, confusion persisted until September 2012, when the virus in a Saudi patient was identified as a previously unknown coronavirus [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR77">77</xref>].</p></sec><sec id="Sec9"><title>The role of bats</title><p>Bats have been found to be the reservoir hosts of dozens of viruses, including severe acute respiratory syndrome coronaviruses (SARS-CoVs), henipaviruses, lyssaviruses, filoviruses, adenoviruses, picornaviruses and herpesviruses [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR1">1</xref>, <xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR7">7</xref>, <xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR12">12</xref>, <xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR27">27</xref>, <xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR35">36</xref>, <xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR37">38</xref>, <xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR39">40</xref>, <xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR40">41</xref>, <xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR62">62</xref>, <xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR70">70</xref>]. Such viruses have existed in bats for a long time, and the question, therefore, is why they suddenly jumped to human hosts. The virus might have been transmitted to humans in ancient times but has only been discovered recently. It is more likely, however, that the jump to human hosts can be attributed to changes in human lifestyle. Thus, one potential future plan to restrict infection would be to limit direct and indirect contact between bats and humans. In the meantime, understanding these routes of transmission may help us to prevent future outbreaks of known and/or currently unknown diseases that leap from bats to humans directly or via intermediate animal amplifiers. Although the natural reservoir of MERS-CoV has not yet been identified, its high sequence similarity to bat viruses is suggestive of an origin in bats. A MERS-CoV sequence identical to that of the virus isolated from an index-case patient in Bisha 2c EMC/2012 was detected in a faecal pellet from <italic>Taphozous perforatus</italic>. The bat sample was collected <12 km from the home of the index case in an abandoned date palm orchard and <1 km from his place of employment. The research team observed roosting bats and guano in abandoned wells and ruins in the nearby areas [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR44">45</xref>]. Interestingly, Al-Ahsa is ranked among the most important date-palm-production cities in Saudi Arabia. It is likely that food or water of farm animals in areas with palm orchards may be contaminated with bat guano, saliva, and/or urine, and this may constitute an indirect mean of transmission to people. MERS-CoV-related viruses have not yet been detected in fruit bats. Meanwhile, drinking of raw sap is not known in the Arabian Peninsula, so the scenario of drinking raw date palm sap that has been identified as a risk factor for human Nipah virus infection [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR41">42</xref>, <xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR54">55</xref>] is an unlikely possibility.</p></sec><sec id="Sec10"><title>Possible animal reservoirs</title><p>In contrast to SARS, the cultural and feeding traditions in the Arabian Peninsula minimize the potential for an effective amplifying host. Normally, well-cooked meat, mainly from sheep, goats and camels, is used, thus excluding a wide variety of meat-borne pathogens. Animal slaughtering is routinely conducted under acceptable hygienic conditions, and meat is sold commercially in a chilled state. Although, there is no current evidence for the presence of MERS-CoV in camel milk, non-heat-treated raw camel milk is commonly consumed, especially in the Bedouin culture, and this may constitute a source of infection to humans. Recently, MERS-CoV neutralizing antibodies were detected in dromedary camels from Oman (100 %), the Canary Islands (14 %), and Egypt (94-98 %), which suggests the widespread infection of camelids with MERS-CoV or a closely related virus [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR50">51</xref>, <xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR57">58</xref>]. This finding raises a concern about the role of camels in the transmission of the disease to humans. Consumption of raw milk and direct contact with camels could, therefore, be routes of virus transmission. More recently, the presence of MERS-CoV has been confirmed in three camels in a herd of 14 animals. Animals exhibited either no symptoms or only mild symptoms when samples were taken and remained so during the following 40 days [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR72">72</xref>].</p><p>In a few cases, in Saudi Arabia and the Arabian Peninsula, native citizens consume the meat of lizards of the genus <italic>Uromastyx</italic> after hunting, and this may constitute a form of animal contact that is unique to the Arabian Peninsula. Although these lizards are almost exclusively herbivorous, analysis of faeces from <italic>Uromastyx</italic> has revealed the presence of sheep droppings, date kernels and feathers [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR17">16</xref>]. Interestingly, the remains of invertebrates, vertebrates and stones have been detected in the faeces of <italic>Uromastyx aegyptia microlepis</italic>, which suggests an element of scavenging in the feeding behaviour of this type of lizard [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR8">8</xref>]. Potentially, therefore, <italic>Uromastyx</italic> could play a role in the ecology of MERS-CoV. In addition, baboons are present in some mountain areas in the Arabian Peninsula, and therefore, people living in these areas may have direct or indirect contact to baboons. The Eastern areas of Saudi Arabia, including the Al-Ahsa district, where a large proportion of cases have been reported, do not contain baboons, however. Of course, the presence of unknown amplifying hosts is a distinct possibility, and there is an urgent need for widespread seroprevalence and virological screening for MERS-CoV in different fauna present in the Arabian Peninsula in order to discover the amplifying host(s).</p></sec><sec id="Sec11"><title>Experimental animal model</title><p>MERS-CoV has failed to replicate in Syrian hamsters following intratracheal inoculation and inoculation via aerosol [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR22">21</xref>], and the best-known current experimental model for MERS-CoV infection is the rhesus macaque [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR23">22</xref>, <xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR46">47</xref>].

Symptoms included elevated temperature, reduced appetite, increased respiration, piloerection, cough and a hunched posture. Histopathological assays showed multifocal to coalescent bright red lesions that developed to dark reddish purple areas of pulmonary inflammation in the lower respiratory tract [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR23">22</xref>, <xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR46">47</xref>]. These were accompanied by fibrous adhesions, and edematous, atelectatic and consolidation areas in the lungs. MERS-CoV replicated mainly in the alveolar pneumocytes and resulted in interstitial pneumonia. The severity of the disease observed in humans may be explained by the ability of MERS-CoV to replicate in the lower respiratory tract [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR23">22</xref>]. Blood tests showed an early elevated number of white cells, with other values being within normal ranges, suggesting an asystemic but organ-specific infection. These clinical findings were corroborated by virological tests in which the virus was isolated from lung tissues and quantified by means of RT-PCR [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR46">47</xref>]. The rhesus macaque model therefore offers a powerful tool to study the full replication cycle of the virus as well as to develop efficacious antiviral drugs and vaccines.</p></sec><sec id="Sec12"><title>Culture systems</title><p>MERS-CoV can replicate in different mammalian cell lines [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR10">10</xref>]. In humans, it can replicate in the respiratory tract (lung adenocarcinoma cell line A549, embryonic fibroblast cell line HFL and polarized airway epithelium cell line Calu-3), kidney (embryonic kidney cell line; HEK), liver cells (hepatocellular carcinoma cell line; Huh-7), and the intestinal tract (colorectal adenocarcinoma cell line; Caco-2) [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR10">10</xref>]. The range of human tissue tropism is broader than that for all other HCoVs, including SARS coronavirus, HKU1, 229E, OC43 and NL63.

Low concentrations of the virus were detected in urine and faecal samples, but there was no evidence of the virus in blood, suggesting a low infection risk during non-respiratory-care procedures [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR24">23</xref>]. A diagnostic rRT-PCR assay is now available for the detection of MERS-CoV [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR14">13</xref>, <xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR15">14</xref>]. The rRT-PCR assays have been rigorously validated and are highly specific and sensitive. rRT-PCR assays for both upE and 1A can be used in combination as detection and confirmatory assays. Genotype sequencing-based assays for both the RNA-dependent RNA polymerase gene (RdRp) and the N gene have also been developed.

Serology provides valuable information on the rates of infection among populations and risk groups.

This finding supports the recommendation of IFN as a promising treatment for MERS-CoV [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR32">33</xref>]. Interestingly, MERS-CoV was found to be 50-100 times more sensitive to interferon-alpha (IFN-α) treatment than SARS-CoV. Cyclosporin A is another compound that inhibited the replication of MERS-CoV in cell cultures [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR21">20</xref>]. An <italic>in vitro</italic> assay showed that the p38 mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK) inhibitor SB203580 possesses a promising antiviral effect against MERS-HCoV [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR31">32</xref>]. SB203580 also showed effective antiviral effects against encephalomyocarditis virus [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR30">31</xref>], respiratory syncytial virus [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR58">59</xref>] and HIV [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR33">34</xref>]. A combination of ribavirin and IFN-α2b should be further evaluated for the possible management of MERS-CoV, since treatment of MERS-CoV-infected rhesus macaques with a combination of ribavirin and IFN-α2b reduced virus replication and improved clinical outcomes [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR25">25</xref>]. IFN-β1b with mycophenolic acid was also found to be a successful combination that possessed antiviral activity against MERS-CoV [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR11">11</xref>]. An important question is whether MERS-CoV-infected patients who were on diabetes treatment with DPP4 inhibitors could eliminate the virus due to the inhibition of MERS-CoV S1 protein binding to the DPP4 receptor, which consequently prevents viral entry into the target cells. Monoclonal antibodies (mAbs) against human CD26 derived from clone 2F9 had neutralizing activity against MERS-CoV. The potential values of these mAbs in MERS therapy, especially of the humanized mAb YS110 used in a phase 1 cancer treatment study, should therefore be subjected to further evaluation [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR47">48</xref>].</p></sec><sec id="Sec15"><title>Conclusion and recommendations</title><p>Lessons learnt from the SARS outbreak were able to be applied when MERS-CoV emerged in the Middle East during 2012-2013. As a result of rapid data sharing, a reliable and powerful diagnostic of MERS-CoV became available worldwide within just a few months of the virus’s first isolation and identification. Like SARS CoV, MERS-CoV is closely related to bat viruses with an as yet unknown reservoir. The high prevalence of camels that are seropositive for MERS-CoV, or a closely related virus, and the isolation of MERS-CoV from camels are suggestive of a possible amplifying host, and therefore, further studies to monitor virus infections in camels are highly recommended in order to assess their potential role in MERS-CoV virus transmission. The transmission of the MERS-CoV to humans in general needs further study to clarify the role of the amplifying host and whether the virus is transmitted from bats to camels and then to humans, or whether other amplifying hosts are involved. The factors associated with the increased virulence and mortality rate in men compared to women should also be investigated. However, in the Arab countries, people usually try to avoid hospitalisation, which is more frequent for adults than children, and for females more than males. Determinants of host susceptibility to MERS-CoV should be carefully and intensively studied, and whether this depends on the presence of specific receptors or whether there are other host metabolic determinants. An important question that requires large and comprehensive serological surveillance is whether MERS-CoV was introduced to and circulated in the general population in the countries of the Middle East, or possibly other countries worldwide, prior to the first reported cases. Many reliable assays have been developed that allow serological screening and surveillance should be conducted on a wide scale among humans and different animal species to determine the exact rate of spread of MERS-CoV.</p></sec></body><back><ack><title>Conflict of interest</title><p>The author has no competing interest.</p></ack><ref-list id="Bib1"><title>References</title><ref
