Background H3N2 influenza A viruses [A(H3N2)] circulate as seasonal influenza in humans worldwide, resulting in a huge disease burden. Adaptation study of A(H3N2) in mice could provide a basis for preclinical evaluation of antivirals and vaccines ...

Counteracting Influenza Virus Evolution Through the Full Spectrum of Broadly Protective Antibodies
ABSTRACT Despite the presence of licensed vaccines and therapeutics, influenza viruses remain a major public health concern, as they cause seasonal respiratory infections and pose a pandemic threat through the emergence of zoonotic strains. Although neutralizing antibodies elicited by seasonal vaccination constitute a primary defense against infection,

Predicting Antigenic Variants of Influenza A/H3N2 Viruses
Current inactivated influenza vaccines provide protection when vaccine antigens and circulating viruses share a high degree of similarity in hemagglutinin protein. Five antigenic sites in the hemagglutinin protein have been proposed, and 131 amino acid positions have been identified in the five antigenic sites.

The Role of CD4 T Cell Repertoire and Immune Memory Mechanisms in Vaccination and Infection Immunity
ABSTRACT CD4+ T cells orchestrate adaptive immunity against respiratory viruses through functionally distinct subsets, yet the qualitative differences between vaccine‐ and infection‐induced responses remain incompletely understood. This review summarizes current evidence on how CD4+ T cell subsets shape the magnitude, breadth, and durability of ...

Antigenic and genomic relation between human influenza A (H3N2) viruses circulating in Argentina during 1998 and the H3N2 vaccine component [PDF]
Due to the lack of correlation from 1994 to 1997 between the A H3N2 component of the influenza vaccine recommended for this period and the circulating viruses in Argentina, we decided to study the antigenic and genomic relationships of the 1998 A H3N2 Argentine circulating strains with the corresponding vaccine component for that year as recommended by

ABSTRACT Background Seasonal influenza causes substantial morbidity and hospitalisation each year. We estimated influenza vaccine effectiveness (VE) against laboratory‐confirmed influenza‐associated hospitalisation among patients in Northern Ireland (NI) during the 2024/25 influenza season.

Lymphoid‐Tissue‐on‐Chip Recapitulates Human Antibody Responses In Vitro
The presented lymphoid‐tissue‐on‐chip system allows culture of primary human tonsil cells at organotypic high density under perfusion for up to 4 weeks, emulates immune response to soluble vaccines and vaccination via peripheral antigen‐presenting cells and represents a useful tool to assess cellular interactions during homeostasis, immune responses ...

ABSTRACT Aim Persistent high‐risk HPV infection can lead to the development of precancerous lesions, potentially progressing to invasive cancer. HPV status serves not only as a prognostic marker for squamous cell carcinoma (HNSCC) like oropharyngeal squamous cell carcinomas (OPSCC) but also significantly influences clinical management and treatment ...

Research on the Mechanism of Natural Products Acting on Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease
This figure illustrates that approximately 80 natural compounds exert therapeutic effects against chronic obstructive pulmonary disease by targeting pathological mechanisms such as airway inflammation, oxidative stress, airway remodeling, mucus hypersecretion, emphysema, protease–antiprotease imbalance, apoptosis, and autophagy.
