Equine Influenza A(H3N8) Virus Infection in Cats
Interspecies transmission of equine influenza A(H3N8) virus has resulted in establishment of a canine influenza virus. To determine if something similar could happen with cats, we experimentally infected 14 cats with the equine influenza A(H3N8) virus ...

Comparison of CIV, SIV and AIV using Decision Tree and SVM
The H3N2, the canine influenza virus has numerous types of animal hosts that can live and reproduce on. They mostly settle on pigs and birds. However, some concerned voices are rising that there is high possibility that humans could be an additional ...

Low dose influenza virus challenge in the ferret leads to increased virus shedding and greater sensitivity to oseltamivir [PDF]
Ferrets are widely used to study human influenza virus infection. Their airway physiology and cell receptor distribution makes them ideal for the analysis of pathogenesis and virus transmission, and for testing the efficacy of anti-influenza ...

Association between nasal shedding and fever that influenza A (H3N2) induces in dogs
Background Avian origin canine influenza virus was reported in Korea. The dog to dog contact transmission of the avian origin canine influenza virus (CIV) H3N2 and CIV H3N8 was shown by experimental contact transmission.

An unbiased genetic screen reveals the polygenic nature of the influenza virus anti-interferon response [PDF]
Influenza A viruses counteract the cellular innate immune response at several steps, including blocking RIG I-dependent activation of interferon (IFN) transcription, IFN-dependent upregulation of IFN-stimulated genes (ISGs) and the activity of various ...

Influenza virus A infection of human monocyte and macrophage subpopulations reveals increased susceptibility associated with cell differentiation [PDF]
Influenza virus infection accounts for significant morbidity and mortality world-wide. Interactions of the virus with host cells, particularly those of the macrophage lineage, are thought to contribute to various pathological changes associated with poor
