Neutralizing DNA Aptamers against Swine Influenza H3N2 Viruses [PDF]

Journal of Clinical Microbiology, 2013
ABSTRACT Triple reassortant influenza A viruses (IAVs) of swine, particularly the North American H3N2 subtype, circulate in swine herds and may reassort and result in the emergence of novel zoonotic strains. Current diagnostic tools rely on isolation of the viruses, followed by serotyping by hemagglutination or genome sequencing,

H3N2 Emergence in India 

International Journal of Pediatrics and Child Health, 2015
Influenza a pandemic in 2009 was predominantly by H1N1strain, however in the current seasonal outbreak H3N2 is more prevalent in North America, Europe and Eastern Asia. However very few cases have been reported from India. We report a case of 5-year-old girl child with H3N2 infection with acute onset and rapid progression.

Timescales of influenza A/H3N2 antibody dynamics

PLOS Biology, 2017
AbstractHuman immunity influences the evolution and impact of novel influenza strains. Because individuals are infected with multiple influenza strains during their lifetime and each virus can generate a cross-reactive antibody response, it is challenging to quantify the processes that shape observed immune responses, or to reliably detect recent ...

Whole-genome sequences of two influenza A (H3N2) virus strains isolated from Qinghai, China

Biosafety and Health, 2021
Influenza A (H3N2) virus has a faster evolution rate than other types of influenza viruses. In this study, whole genome sequencing was performed to better understand the molecular evolution of influenza H3N2 and the protective effect of influenza virus ...

Molecular Epidemiology of Influenza A(H3N2) Virus Reinfections [PDF]

The Journal of Infectious Diseases, 2002
Between 1979 and 1989, families enrolled in the Houston Family Study were prospectively monitored for influenza virus infections. Reinfection with the H3N2 subtype occurred in a number of family members, and 6 pairs of isolates (interval between collection of first and second isolate, 2-5 years) were available for molecular analysis.

Highly Cross-Reactive and Protective Influenza A Virus H3N2 Hemagglutinin- and Neuraminidase-Specific Human Monoclonal Antibodies

Microbiology Spectrum, 2023
Due to antigenic drift and shift of influenza A viruses (IAV) and the tendency to elicit predominantly strain-specific antibodies, humanity remains susceptible to new strains of seasonal IAV and is at risk from viruses with pandemic potential for which ...

H3N2 Canine Influenza Virus Infection in a Dog [PDF]

Veterinary Pathology, 2016
In 2015, H3N2 canine influenza emerged in dogs in the greater Chicago area. During this time, a 10-year-old German Shepherd dog presented to the referring veterinarian with lethargy and coughing that quickly progressed to death. This report describes the macroscopic and microscopic lesions and the molecular testing performed to identify the novel ...

Fatal Myopericarditis Following an Influenza A (H3N2) Infection [PDF]

American Journal of Case Reports, 2018
BACKGROUND Influenza viruses induce uncomplicated infections in most cases in individuals with no known predisposing factors. Acute febrile illness is generally limited to upper respiratory symptoms and several constitutional symptoms, including headache, lethargy, and myalgia.

Novel reassortant swine H3N2 influenza A viruses in Germany [PDF]

Scientific Reports, 2020
AbstractAnalysis of 228 H3N2 swine influenza A virus isolates collected between 2003 and 2015 in Germany revealed important changes in molecular epidemiology. The data indicate that a novel reassortant, Rietberg/2014-like swine H3N2, emerged in February 2014 in Northern Germany.

Major antigenic site B of human influenza H3N2 viruses has an evolving local fitness landscape

Nature Communications, 2020
Antigenic drift of influenza virus hemagglutinin (HA) is enabled by facile evolvability. However, HA antigenic site B, which has become immunodominant in recent human H3N2 influenza viruses, is also evolutionarily constrained by its involvement in ...
