Risk assessment of the newly emerged H7N9 avian influenza viruses

Emerging Microbes & Infections, 2022
ABSTRACT Since the first human case in 2013, H7N9 avian influenza viruses (AIVs) have caused more than 1500 human infections with a mortality rate of approximately 40%. Despite large-scale poultry vaccination regimes across China, the H7N9 AIVs continue to persist and evolve rapidly in poultry.

Nano‐ and Micro‐Sized Solid Materials Used as Antiviral Agents

Advanced Functional Materials, Volume 36, Issue 26, 30 March 2026.
Due to the rise of viral infections in humans and possible viral outbreaks, the use of nano‐ or micro‐sized materials as antiviral agents is rapidly increasing. This review explores their antiviral properties against RNA and DNA viruses, either as a prevention or a treatment tool, by delving into their mechanisms of action and how to properly assess ...

Management of the First Confirmed Case of Avian Influenza A H7N9 [PDF]

Respiratory Care, 2014
In March 2013, the first patient infected with the avian influenza A H7N9 virus was identified in China. The infection progressed rapidly, and the patient died of ARDS. During hospitalization, the patient was suspected of having an infectious respiratory disease, and contingency plans for public health emergencies were promptly started.

Influenza virus infection drives upregulation of CD84 across a broad range of immune cells

Clinical &Translational Immunology, Volume 15, Issue 3, 2026.
Our findings reveal a link between high CD84 expression in humans and recovery from respiratory viral infections. In influenza virus‐infected mice, CD84 is upregulated on a broad range of innate and adaptive immune cell populations, particularly on activated and influenza virus‐specific T‐cell populations and associated with less disease severity ...

Sex Differences in Lung Immunity

Immunological Reviews, Volume 338, Issue 1, March 2026.
ABSTRACT Biological sex has a significant impact on how the immune system develops and responds to foreign and self‐antigens. Sex differences exist in innate and adaptive immune cells, both at homeostasis and in the context of infection and inflammatory diseases such as asthma, cancer, and autoimmune disorders.

Successful management of refractory respiratory failure caused by avian influenza H7N9 and secondary organizing pneumonia: a case report and literature review

BMC Infectious Diseases, 2019
Backgroud Organizing pneumonia (OP) is a rare complication of influenza infection that has substantial morbidity. We report the first case of OP associated with avian influenza H7N9 infection that had significant improvement with corticosteroid treatment.

Phage‐Mediated Presentation of a Conserved HA2 Epitope From Influenza A Virus Elicits Significant IgY Antibody Responses in Broiler Chickens

Veterinary Medicine and Science, Volume 12, Issue 1, January 2026.
The conserved region of HA2 peptide of Influenza A virus was expressed on the surface of Protein VIII from M13 phage. Immunization of broiler chickens by this hybrid phage showed high levels of antibody responses, highlighting its potential as a promising tool for universal vaccine development against Influenza A virus.
