Avian influenza and human health
Acta Tropica, 2002Natural infections with influenza A viruses have been reported in a variety of animal species including humans, pigs, horses, sea mammals, mustelids and birds. Occasionally devastating pandemics occur in humans. Although viruses of relatively few HA and NA subtype combinations have been isolated from mammalian species, all 15 HA subtypes and all 9 NA ...

A “universal” human influenza A vaccine
Virus Research, 2004We have previously reported on a universal human influenza A vaccine, based on the external domain of the transmembrane viral M2-protein (M2e) [Nature Medicine 5 (1999) 1119]. M2-protein is scarcely present on the virus but is abundantly expressed on virus-infected cells.

The pathogenesis of influenza in humans
Reviews in Medical Virology, 2001AbstractThe rapid evolution of influenza A and B viruses contributes to annual influenza epidemics in humans. In addition, pandemics of influenza are also caused by influenza A viruses, whereas influenza B does not have the potential to cause pandemics because there is no animal reservoir of the virus. Study of the genetic differences between influenza

Predicting the Evolution of Human Influenza A
Science, 1999Eighteen codons in the HA1 domain of the hemagglutinin genes of human influenza A subtype H3 appear to be under positive selection to change the amino acid they encode. Retrospective tests show that viral lineages undergoing the greatest number of mutations in the positively selected codons were the progenitors of future H3 lineages in 9 of 11 recent ...

Influenza type A viruses affect humans and other animals and cause significant morbidity, mortality and economic impact. Influenza A viruses are well adapted to cross species barriers and evade host immunity. Viruses that cause no clinical signs in wild aquatic birds may adapt in domestic poultry to become highly pathogenic avian influenza viruses ...

Human infection with influenza H9N2
The Lancet, 1999Summary We report the clinical features of two cases of human infection with influenza A virus subtype H9N2 in Hong Kong, and show that serum samples from blood donors in Hong Kong had neutralising antibody suggestive of prior infection with influenza H9N2.

Annual Review of Medicine, 2006
Influenza A viral infection causes substantial annual morbidity and mortality worldwide, particularly for infants, the elderly, and the immunocompromised. The virus mainly replicates in the respiratory tract and is spread by respiratory secretions. A growing concern is the recent identification of H5N1 strains of avian influenza A in Asia that were ...

‘Ravages of Influenza’: The Human Cost of Influenza in Ireland
2021This chapter examines two distinct aspects of the pandemic in Ireland, how and where did influenza enter Ireland? What was the human cost to the country? It explores theories about the origin of this global pandemic and considers how and where influenza entered Ireland as well as theories on factors contributing to the dispersal of the disease ...
