Equine adenovirus 1 can also cause fatal disease in immunocompromised Arabian foals, involving pneumonia and destruction of pancreatic and salivary gland tissue. [31] Tupaia adenovirus (TAV) (tree shrew adenovirus 1) has been isolated from tree shrews. Otarine adenovirus 1 has been isolated from sea lions (Zalophus californianus). [32]
Human adenovirus 36 (HAdV-36) or Ad-36 or Adv36 is one of 52 types of adenoviruses known to infect humans. AD-36, first isolated in 1978 from the feces of a girl suffering from diabetes and enteritis, [ 1 ] has long been recognized as a cause of respiratory and eye infections in humans. [ 2 ]

In August 2022, 9 children in a U.S. case series of hepatitis of unknown cause [7] and 27 of 30 children in a U.K. case series with hepatitis of unknown cause who underwent molecular testing [8] tested positive for human adenovirus type 41 in a sample. It was unclear whether human adenovirus 41 was the cause, however. [citation needed]
Adenovirus serotype 14 (Ad14) is a serovar of adenovirus which, unlike other adenovirus serovars, is known to cause potentially fatal adenovirus infections.According to the United States Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), as of September 2007, outbreaks have been identified in four states in the U.S., with ten identified deaths since May 2006.
Viral replication is nuclear. Entry into the host cell is achieved by attachment of the viral fiber glycoproteins to host receptors, which mediates endocytosis.
