Epidemiology and Burden of Human Metapneumovirus Among Italian Adults in Outpatient and Inpatient Settings, 2014–2025

Influenza and Other Respiratory Viruses, Volume 19, Issue 10, October 2025.
ABSTRACT Background Human metapneumovirus (hMPV) has been increasingly recognized as a major contributor to respiratory infections in all age groups. Owing to its recent discovery, available data on the burden of hMPV in adults are still scant and heterogeneous.

Efficacy of a novel avian metapneumovirus live vaccine candidate based on vaccination route and age

Poultry Science, 2021
This article describes a series of animal studies for the development of an avian metapneumovirus (aMPV) live vaccine. Although aMPV causes continual economic loss in the poultry industry, there are no live aMPV vaccines available in Korea.

Detection of and phylogenetic studies with avian metapneumovirus recovered from feral pigeons and wild birds in Brazil

, 2015
The aim of the present study was to determine whether avian metapneumovirus (aMPV)-related viruses were present in wild and synanthropic birds in Brazil.

Coupling wastewater‐based epidemiology with data‐driven machine learning for managing public health risks

Risk Analysis, Volume 45, Issue 10, Page 2974-2982, October 2025.
Abstract Traditional health surveillance methods play a critical role in public health safety but are limited by the data collection speed, coverage, and resource requirements. Wastewater‐based epidemiology (WBE) has emerged as a cost‐effective and rapid tool for detecting infectious diseases through sewage analysis of disease biomarkers.

Avian Metapneumovirus Subgroup C Phosphoprotein Suppresses Type I Interferon Production by Blocking Interferon Regulatory Factor 3 Nuclear Translocation

Microbiology Spectrum, 2023
Avian metapneumovirus subgroup C (aMPV/C) is an important pathogen that causes upper respiratory symptoms and egg production decline in turkeys and chickens. aMPV/C infection leads to inhibition of the host antiviral immune response.

Trends of Human Metapneumovirus Outbreaks in Bangladesh: Probable Risks and Preventive Strategies

Health Science Reports, Volume 8, Issue 9, September 2025.
ABSTRACT Background and Aims Human metapneumovirus (hMPV) is one of the major pathogens associated with respiratory tract infection and is a rising concern for people with compromised immunity worldwide. Amid the global concern about the increased incidence of hMPV, we found a significant lack of studies on the epidemiology of this virus in Bangladesh.

Development of a Rapid Isothermal Assay for Detection of Adenovirus Types Important in Respiratory Infections

Influenza and Other Respiratory Viruses, Volume 19, Issue 8, August 2025.
ABSTRACT Background Nucleic acid amplification tests (NAATs) for human adenoviruses (HAdVs) causing respiratory infections usually target the hexon gene. However, new HAdV types with substantial variations in the hexon gene may not be detected. Thus, we focus on NAATs based on a conserved region in the penton gene to detect all HAdV types causing ...

Community‐Acquired Chlamydia psittaci Severe Pneumonia: A Case Report

Case Reports in Infectious Diseases, Volume 2025, Issue 1, 2025.
Chlamydia psittaci, the causative agent of psittacosis, is an intracellular bacterium typically transmitted from birds to humans, leading to atypical pneumonia. We present a case of a 60‐year‐old man with no reported bird exposure but a history of working as a chief cook, potentially exposed to poultry.

Advancing the field of viroporins—Structure, function and pharmacology: IUPHAR Review 39

British Journal of Pharmacology, Volume 181, Issue 22, Page 4450-4490, November 2024.
Viroporins possess important potential as antiviral targets due to their critical roles during virus life cycles, spanning from virus entry to egress. Although the antiviral amantadine targets the M2 viroporin of influenza A virus, successful progression of other viroporin inhibitors into clinical use remains challenging.

Seroprevalences of specific antibodies against avian pathogens in free-ranging ring-necked pheasants (Phasianus colchicus) in Northwestern Germany.

PLoS ONE, 2021
Infectious diseases in captive pheasants (Phasianus colchicus) are well known, but there is a lack of knowledge about occurrence and distribution of pathogens in free-ranging pheasants in Germany.
