Rhinovirus (RV) known as the common cold virus generally only causes a mild upper respiratory infection, but severe lower respiratory symptoms have been associated with RV infections especially in asthmatic individuals. Wheezing is a symptom of airway obstruction, and preschool children wheezing with RV have been associated with increased risk of asthma at school age. There are, however, conflicting opinions as to whether there are differences in response to RV infection or whether wheezing with RV reveals a preexisting impairment that promotes asthma mainly in predisposed children. The advent of molecular diagnostics to detect respiratory viruses has led to new insights into the role of RV infections. This review will discuss recent information concerning the role of RV as an important respiratory pathogen related to early onset wheeze and exacerbation of established asthma in preschool children.
