Offers no immediate clinical implications; hypothesis-generating for beta-cell tropism mechanisms in coxsackievirus B4.
The identification of 25 nucleotide sequence differences between the pancreas-adapted and prototype coxsackievirus B4 strains provides a genetic basis for investigating its beta-cell tropism.
Titchener et al. (1994) studied this question.
