Bogoch Replikins Pandemic Prevention: Increase of Strain-Specific Influenza Genomic Replikin Counts, Having Predicted Outbreaks and their Location Seven Times Consecutively, Up to Two Years in Advance, Provides Time for Prevention of Pandemics [PDF]
, 2012 Earlier studies have shown that the increased concentration of a new class of virus genomic peptides, Replikins, precedes and predicts virus outbreaks. We now find that the area in the genome of the highest concentration of Replikins, and the country in ...

analysis of antiviral immune response against avian influenza virus in chicken tracheal epithelial cells [PDF]
Animal BioscienceObjective Avian influenza virus (AIV) infections first affect the respiratory tract of chickens. The epithelial cells activate the host immune system, which leads to the induction of immune-related genes and the production of antiviral molecules against ...

H5N1 outbreaks and enzootic influenza
Biodiversity, 2006 Ongoing outbreaks of H5N1 avian influenza in migratory waterfowl, domestic poultry, and humans in Asia during the summer of 2005 present a continuing, protean pandemic threat. We review the zoonotic source of highly pathogenic H5N1 viruses and their genesis from their natural reservoirs. The acquisition of novel traits, including lethality to waterfowl,
