H5N1 Clade 2.2 Polymorphism Tracing Identifies Influenza Recombination and Potential Vaccine Targets [PDF]

, 2007
Highly pathogenic Influenza A H5N1 was first identified in Guangdong Province in 1996, followed by human cases in Hong Kong in 1997 1. The number of confirmed human cases now exceeds 300 and the associated Case Fatality Rate exceeds 60% 2.

Integumentary fibrosarcoma in a free‐living swan (Cygnus olor): Medical and welfare considerations

Veterinary Record Case Reports, Volume 14, Issue 2, May 2026.
Abstract A 10‐kg adult male mute swan (Cygnus olor) of unknown age was admitted for investigations of two large ventral masses overlying the keel bone, which were discharging purulent material. The masses measured 8.9 × 2.1 cm and 4.2 × 3.2 cm. Empirical treatment with non‐steroidal anti‐inflammatory drugs and antimicrobials was instigated.

Prediction of specific virus outbreaks made from the increased concentration of a new class of virus genomic peptides, replikins. [PDF]

, 2011
Advance warning of pathogen outbreaks has not been possible heretofore. A new class of genomic peptides associated with rapid replication was discovered and named replikins. Software was designed to analyze replikins quantitatively.

Epidemiological Features of Highly Pathogenic Avian Influenza in Cameroon

Veterinary Medicine International, 2019
The epidemiology of avian influenza is unknown in Cameroon despite the two outbreaks that occurred in 2006 and 2016-2017, respectively. In order to fill the gap, an attempt was made to provide some basic information on the epidemiology of highly pathogenic avian influenza in Cameroon.

Assessing the Ecological Network of Svalbard Through Scaled Interaction Strength Data: Insights From a Century of Research

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 4, April 2026.
In this work, we integrate existing knowledge on interaction strengths into a conceptual model of the Svalbard Ecological Network. We also highlight current knowledge gaps and challenges in establishing a robust baseline of species interactions in the region.

Viral polymerase-host interaction analysis reveals that the association between avian NUP93 and PB1 promotes H5N6 avian influenza virus replication

Microbiology Spectrum
The H5N6 avian influenza virus, a highly pathogenic strain, poses a significant threat to poultry production and public health. The RNA-dependent RNA polymerase (comprising PB1, PB2, and PA proteins) and nucleoprotein of highly pathogenic avian influenza

Spread of Influenza Virus A (H5N1) Clade 2.3.2.1 to Bulgaria in Common Buzzards

Emerging Infectious Diseases, 2012
On March 15, 2010, a highly pathogenic avian influenza virus was isolated from the carcass of a common buzzard (Buteo buteo) in Bulgaria. Phylogenetic analyses of the virus showed a close genetic relationship with influenza virus A (H5N1) clade 2.3.2.1 ...

Intra- and interspecies transmission of H7N7 highly pathogenic avian influenza virus during the avian influenza epidemic in the Netherlands in 2003 [PDF]

The poultry epidemic of H7N7 highly pathogenic avian influenza (HPAI) virus in the Netherlands in 2003 was probably the result of the introduction of an H7N7 low pathogenic avian influenza (LPAI) virus (by interspecies transmission from wild birds) and ...

Preparedness for Highly Pathogenic Avian Influenza Pandemic in Africa

Emerging Infectious Diseases, 2007
Global concerns about an impending influenza pandemic escalated when highly pathogenic influenza A subtype H5N1 appeared in Nigeria in January 2006. The potential devastation from emergence of a pandemic strain in Africa has led to a sudden shift of public health focus to pandemic preparedness.

Axon Initial Segment: Structure, Biological Functions, Diseases, and Therapeutic Targets

MedComm, Volume 7, Issue 4, April 2026.
The axon initial segment (AIS) is a specialized axonal domain critical for maintaining neuronal polarity, action potential initiation, and network stability. This review summarizes the necessary elements for maintaining AIS structure and plasticity, discussing crucial biological functions of AIS in neuronal signaling and the neural circuit homeostasis,
