    Description / Table of Contents: Summary Dermatomyositis in a 7 year old girl was diagnosed two months prior to admission to our pediatric rheumatology program. Serological and molecular biology methods were used to investigate the evidence for a recent coxsackie-B-virusinfection. Serum specimens of the patient were analysed for detection of coxsackie-B-virus antibodies in a neutralization test (NT), the complement fixation reaction (CF) and for IgM antibodies in an enzyme-immuno-assay. Muscle biopsy specimens were examined by means of polymerase chain reaction and in situ hybridisation, using RNA-sequences specific for coxsackie-B-virus. The results in all serological tests were positive, indicating a recent coxsackie-B-virus-infection. However, neither polymerase chain reaction nor in situ hybridisation revealed any persistence of coxsackie-B-virus in the muscle. The results of this study are compatible with published reports. There is strong evidence for a role of coxsackie-B-virus-infection in causing dermatomyositis, but virus persistence in muscle tissue, resulting in chronic inflammation, seems unlikely. Possibly, Coxsackie-B-virus infection is implicated in pathogenesis of dermatomyositis by triggering autoimmune processes in sensitive patients, resulting in chronic inflammation.
    Notes: Zusammenfassung Ein 7jähriges Mädchen, bei dem 2 Monate vor der Präsentation in der rheumatologischen Ambulanz der Kinderklinik Tübingen die Diagnose Dermatomyositis gestellt wurde, wurde mit Hilfe von serologischen und molekularbiologischen Untersuchungen auf Zeichen einer Coxsackie-B-Virus-Infektion untersucht. Mit Serumproben der Patientin wurden Antikörper für Coxsackie-B-Virus im Neutralisationstest, in der Komplementbindungsreaktion und für IgM in einem Enzymimmunoassay bestimmt. Ein Muskelbiopsat der Patientin wurde mittels Polymerasekettenreaktion (PCR) sowie In-situ-Hybridisierung auf Viruspersistenz untersucht. Die serologischen Untersuchungen machten eine vor kurzem durchgemachte Coxsackie-B-Virus-Infektion wahrscheinlich. Allerdings konnte weder mit der PCR noch mit der In-situ-Hybridisierung im Muskelbiopsat Coxsackie-B-Virus-RNA nachgewiesen werden, so daß eine Viruspersistenz in diesem Gewebe ausgeschlossen werden konnte. Die Ergebnisse dieser Untersuchung, bei der nach unserem Wissen erstmals alle oben genannten Nachweismethoden an 1 Fall exemplarisch zur Anwendung kamen, sind mit einer Reihe von Berichten aus der Literatur vereinbar. Während Zusammenhänge zwischen Coxsackie-B-Virus-Infektionen und Dermatomyositis belegt sind, muß eine Viruspersistenz im Muskelgewebe als Ursache für eine andauernde Myositis nicht vorliegen. Möglicherweise kommt der Auslösung von Autoimmunreaktionen durch eine Infektion mit Coxsackie-B-Viren eine Bedeutung bei der Pathogenese der Dermatomyositis zu.

    Notes: Die Entwicklung gentherapeutischer Strategien in der Onkologie ist in den letzten Jahren forciert vorangetrieben worden. Optimierte gentherapeutische Strategien könnten die Möglichkeit schaffen, eine gewebespezifische, also auf den Tumor begrenzte Therapie einzusetzen. Allerdings mangelt es bislang noch an der Gewebespezifität, die einen gentherapeutischen Einsatz ohne größere Beeinträchtigung des Normalgewebes möglich werden läßt [6, 26]. Die Reaktion des Normalgewebes ist somit auch hier maßgebend.

    Description / Table of Contents: Summary Chronic persistent Myokarditis caused by parvovirus B19 in childhood has not yet been described. A case of a 17 month old boy admitted with a decompensated dilated cardiomyopathy is described. Precondition for diagnosis is a biopsy of the endomyocardium taken during catheterization. This should always be done to exclude an abnormal coronary orign from the pulmonary artery. With new methods like insituhybridisation and polymerase-chain-reaction the causative organism of a viral myocarditis can be detected. Discussion: A biopsy of the endomyocardium in cases of unclear cardiomyopathy is highly recommended. Dependent from the course of the infection new immunosuppressive and antiinflammatory therapies were evaluated in current studies.
    Notes: Zusammenfassung Eine chronisch persistierende Parvovirus-B19-Myokarditis ist im Kleinkindalter bisher nicht beschrieben. Der Verlauf bei einem 17 Monate alten Jungen, der mit einer dekompensierten dilatativen Kardiomyopathie aufgenommen wurde, wird geschildert. Voraussetzung für die Diagnose war die Endomyokardbiopsie im Rahmen einer Herzkatheteruntersuchung. Diese sollte bei einer Kardiomyopathie generell auch zum Ausschluß eines Bland-White-Garland-Syndroms durchgeführt werden. Mit neuen Nachweismethoden wie In-situ-Hybridisierung und Polymerasekettenreaktion ist eine ätiologische Zuordnung bei viralen Myokarditiden möglich. Diskussion: Bei unklaren Kardiomyopathien ist die Endomyokardbiopsie dringend geboten. Abhängig vom Krankheitsverlauf sind neue antiinflammatorische und immunsuppressive Therapieansätze bei viralen Myokarditiden in aktuellen Studien evaluiert worden.

    Notes: Abstract A 66-year-old woman treated for ocular myasthenia gravis with azathioprine for 12 years presented with a left fronto-parietal mass. Histology revealed primary Hodgkin’s lymphoma of the central nervous system with CD30, Epstein-Barr virus (EBV) latent membrane protein and CD20-positive, CD45 (LCA)-negative Reed-Sternberg cells surrounded by T cells. Moreover, EBV-encoded RNA-1 (EBER-1) sequences and a monoclonal rearrangement of the immunoglobulin heavy chain CDR2 locus were detected.

    Notes: Summary Using an antiserum raised to a recombinant coxsackie virus B3 capsid protein, VP1, an immunocytochemical technique was developed which was capable of detecting the presence of all coxsackie B viruses in formalin fixed paraffin embedded infected tissue culture cells. This technique was tested on autopsy heart and pancreas from 21 patients who were thought to have died of acute coxsackievirus B myocarditis. Cardiac myocytes were positive for the VP1 protein in 12 of 20 cases where the heart was available for study. Insulitis was present in the pancreas in seven of these cases and in all seven islet endocrine cells containing VP1 were found. VP1 was only rarely found in exocrine pancreas. In heart and pancreas, cells shown to contain VP1 usually showed signs of necrosis. Autopsy pancreases from 88 patients who had died at clinical presentation of Type 1 (insulin-dependent) diabetes mellitus showed no evidence of the presence of VP1. The continuing destruction of insulin-secreting B cells seen at the time of death in the diabetic pancreas is unlikely to be due to a direct cytopathic effect of a coxsackie B virus. However, this study does not exclude the possibility that a persistent infection of B cells by a defective enterovirus may result in their destruction by an autoimmune mechanism.

    Notes: Abstract. Three infants, each with a clinical picture of dilated cardiomyopathy, underwent endomyocardial biopsy. Immunohistologic analysis revealed chronic myocarditis. In one infant, a postviral etiology of chronic myocarditis could be assessed on the basis of molecular techniques. Therapy with azathioprine and prednisone resulted in the normalization of echocardiographic findings. Based on these observations, a randomized, multicenter treatment study of chronic myocarditis in children (TCMC) has been initiated.
