Influenza A (H3N2) Outbreak, Nepal
Emerging Infectious Diseases, 2005 In July 2004, an outbreak of influenza A (H3N2) was detected at 3 Bhutanese refugee camps in southeastern Nepal. Hemagglutination inhibition showed that ≈40% of the viruses from this outbreak were antigenically distinct from the A/Wyoming/3/03 vaccine ...

Structure of an H3N2 influenza virus nucleoprotein [PDF]
Acta Crystallographica Section F Structural Biology Communications, 2021 Influenza A viruses of the H1N1 and H3N2 subtypes are responsible for seasonal epidemic events. The influenza nucleoprotein (NP) binds to the viral genomic RNA and is essential for its replication. Efforts are under way to produce therapeutics and vaccines targeting the NP.

Novel reassortant swine H3N2 influenza A viruses in Germany [PDF]
Scientific Reports, 2020 AbstractAnalysis of 228 H3N2 swine influenza A virus isolates collected between 2003 and 2015 in Germany revealed important changes in molecular epidemiology. The data indicate that a novel reassortant, Rietberg/2014-like swine H3N2, emerged in February 2014 in Northern Germany.

Molecular Epidemiology of Influenza A(H3N2) Virus Reinfections [PDF]
The Journal of Infectious Diseases, 2002 Between 1979 and 1989, families enrolled in the Houston Family Study were prospectively monitored for influenza virus infections. Reinfection with the H3N2 subtype occurred in a number of family members, and 6 pairs of isolates (interval between collection of first and second isolate, 2-5 years) were available for molecular analysis.

H3N2 Canine Influenza Virus Infection in a Dog [PDF]
Veterinary Pathology, 2016 In 2015, H3N2 canine influenza emerged in dogs in the greater Chicago area. During this time, a 10-year-old German Shepherd dog presented to the referring veterinarian with lethargy and coughing that quickly progressed to death. This report describes the macroscopic and microscopic lesions and the molecular testing performed to identify the novel ...

Fatal Myopericarditis Following an Influenza A (H3N2) Infection [PDF]
American Journal of Case Reports, 2018 BACKGROUND Influenza viruses induce uncomplicated infections in most cases in individuals with no known predisposing factors. Acute febrile illness is generally limited to upper respiratory symptoms and several constitutional symptoms, including headache, lethargy, and myalgia.

Evolution-informed forecasting of seasonal influenza A (H3N2) [PDF]
Science Translational Medicine, 2017 ABSTRACTInter-pandemic or seasonal influenza exacts an enormous annual burden both in terms of human health and economic impact. Incidence prediction ahead of season remains a challenge largely because of the virus’ antigenic evolution. We propose here a forecasting approach that incorporates evolutionary change into a mechanistic epidemiological model.

Timescales of influenza A/H3N2 antibody dynamics
PLOS Biology, 2017 AbstractHuman immunity influences the evolution and impact of novel influenza strains. Because individuals are infected with multiple influenza strains during their lifetime and each virus can generate a cross-reactive antibody response, it is challenging to quantify the processes that shape observed immune responses, or to reliably detect recent ...
