  Complications of acute respiratory viral infections include pneumonia, development and exacerbations of bronchial asthma (BA). Respiratory infections with human rhinoviruses, respiratory syncytial virus, adenovirus, influenza viruses A and B, parainfluenza virus’s type 1 and 3 were detected in 36.2 ± 7.1 % of clinical samples of adult patients and in 54.5 ± 10.9% of samples from children with BA using RT-PCR. High frequencies of mixed respiratory infections (35.7 ± 13.3 in adult patients and 16.7 ± 11.2 among children) along with detection of antibodies against respiratory viruses in blood sera suggested immunodeficits. Disbalance of the IFN gene expression in the absence of IFNβ gene expression, IFNα RNA detection in 58.3% samples and IFNλ RNA - in 42.9% samples together with low levels of the IFN-stimulated antiviral prot..
