Highly Pathogenic H5N1 Influenza Virus in Smuggled Thai Eagles, Belgium

Emerging Infectious Diseases, 2005
We report the isolation and characterization of a highly pathogenic avian influenza A/H5N1 virus from Crested Hawk-Eagles smuggled into Europe by air travel. A screening performed in human and avian contacts indicated no dissemination occurred.

H5N1: A Cautionary Tale [PDF]

Frontiers in Public Health, 2014
The history of the research with the highly pathogenic avian influenza virus H5N1 and the publication of the results of that research is reminiscent of the Buddhist “Parable of the Blind Men and the Elephant.” In the parable, the Buddha relates a story of a raja who, when confronted with disputatious scholars, gathered blind men and presented each man ...

Influenza A H5N1 Detection

Emerging Infectious Diseases, 2005
طورنا اختبارًا حساسًا وسريعًا في الوقت الفعلي للتفاعل المتسلسل للبوليميراز والنسخ العكسي (RT - PCR) للكشف عن فيروس الأنفلونزا A H5N1 في العينات السريرية. تم تقييم هذا الفحص باستخدام عينات من مرضى مصابين بفيروس H5N1 وأظهر حساسية أكبر ووقت دوران أسرع من RT - PCR المتداخلة.

Migratory status is not related to the susceptibility to HPAIV H5N1 in an insectivorous passerine species [PDF]

, 2009
Migratory birds have evolved elaborate physiological adaptations to travelling, the implications for their susceptibility to avian influenza are however unknown.

Changes in poultry handling behavior and poultry mortality reporting among rural Cambodians in areas affected by HPAI/H5N1. [PDF]

, 2009
BACKGROUND: Since 2004, 21 highly pathogenic avian influenza H5N1 outbreaks in domestic poultry and eight human cases have been confirmed in Cambodia. As a result, a large number of avian influenza education campaigns have been ongoing in provinces in ...

Passive immunotherapy for influenza A H5N1 virus infection with equine hyperimmune globulin F(ab')₂ in mice

Respiratory Research, 2006
Background Avian influenza virus H5N1 has demonstrated considerable pandemic potential. Currently, no effective vaccines for H5N1 infection are available, so passive immunotherapy may be an alternative strategy.

H5N1 Clade 2.2 Polymorphism Tracing Identifies Influenza Recombination and Potential Vaccine Targets [PDF]

, 2007
Highly pathogenic Influenza A H5N1 was first identified in Guangdong Province in 1996, followed by human cases in Hong Kong in 1997 1. The number of confirmed human cases now exceeds 300 and the associated Case Fatality Rate exceeds 60% 2.

Antigenic drift in H5N1 avian influenza virus in poultry is driven by mutations in major antigenic sites of the hemagglutinin molecule analogous to those for human influenza virus [PDF]

, 2011
H5N1 highly pathogenic avian influenza virus has been endemic in poultry in Egypt since 2008, notwithstanding the implementation of mass vaccination and culling of infected birds.

Highly Pathogenic H5N1 Influenza A Virus Spreads Efficiently in Human Primary Monocyte-Derived Macrophages and Dendritic Cells

Frontiers in Immunology, 2018
Influenza A viruses cause recurrent epidemics and occasional global pandemics. Wild birds are the natural reservoir of influenza A virus from where the virus can be transmitted to poultry or to mammals including humans.
