A Review on Equine Influenza from a Human Influenza Perspective [PDF]

Viruses, 2022
Influenza A viruses (IAVs) have a main natural reservoir in wild birds. IAVs are highly contagious, continually evolve, and have a wide host range that includes various mammalian species including horses, pigs, and humans. Furthering our understanding of host-pathogen interactions and cross-species transmissions is therefore essential.

Human Influenza Epidemiology [PDF]

Cold Spring Harbor Perspectives in Medicine, 2020
Influenza virus infections are common in people of all ages. Epidemics occur in the winter months in temperate locations and at varying times of the year in subtropical and tropical locations. Most influenza virus infections cause mild and self-limiting disease, and around one-half of all infections occur with a fever.

The human side of influenza [PDF]

Journal of Leukocyte Biology, 2012
Abstract Review of immunity to influenza virus infection in humans, noting evidence from murine studies and suggesting directions in which future research is most needed. A clear understanding of immunity in individuals infected with influenza virus is critical for the design of effective vaccination and treatment ...

The evolution of human influenza viruses [PDF]

Philosophical Transactions of the Royal Society of London. Series B: Biological Sciences, 2001
The evolution of influenza viruses results in (i) recurrent annual epidemics of disease that are caused by progressive antigenic drift of influenza A and B viruses due to the mutability of the RNA genome and (ii) infrequent but severe pandemics caused by the emergence of novel influenza A subtypes to which the population has little immunity. The latter

Pathology of human influenza revisited [PDF]

Vaccine, 2008
The pathology of human influenza has been studied most intensively during the three pandemics of the last century, the last of which occurred in 1968. It is important to revisit this subject because of the recent emergence of avian H5N1 influenza in humans as well as the threat of a new pandemic.

The human Transmembrane Protease Serine 2 is necessary for the production of Group 2 influenza A virus pseudotypes [PDF]

, 2013
The monomer of influenza haemagglutinin is synthesized as a single polypeptide precursor that during maturation is cleaved by proteases into two active subunits. Other studies have demonstrated that the human Transmembrane Protease Serine 2 (TMPRSS2) can

Human Influenza Virus Infections [PDF]

Seminars in Respiratory and Critical Care Medicine, 2016
Seasonal and pandemic influenza are the two faces of respiratory infections caused by influenza viruses in humans. As seasonal influenza occurs on an annual basis, the circulating virus strains are closely monitored and a yearly updated vaccination is provided, especially to identified risk populations. Nonetheless, influenza virus infection may result

Influenza virus A infection of human monocyte and macrophage subpopulations reveals increased susceptibility associated with cell differentiation [PDF]

, 2012
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

Stalking influenza by vaccination with pre-fusion headless HA mini-stem. [PDF]

, 2016
Inaccuracies in prediction of circulating viral strain genotypes and the possibility of novel reassortants causing a pandemic outbreak necessitate the development of an anti-influenza vaccine with increased breadth of protection and potential for rapid ...
