The production and development of H7 Influenza virus pseudotypes for the study of humoral responses against avian viruses [PDF]
In recent years, high pathogenicity avian influenza (HPAI) virus, H5N1, low pathogenicity avian influenza (LPAI) virus, H9N2, and both HPAI and LPAI H7 viruses have proved devastating for the affected economies reliant on poultry industry, and have posed

Systemic infection of avian influenza A virus H5N1 subtype in humans
The viral dissemination in a patient with avian influenza A subtype H5N1 infection was retrospectively studied by the immunohistochemical localization of viral nucleoprotein antigen. The pathology was marked by diffuse alveolar damage, lymphoid depletion, and reactive hemophagocytic syndrome.

Active Surveillance for Avian Influenza Virus, Egypt, 2010–2012
Continuous circulation of influenza A(H5N1) virus among poultry in Egypt has created an epicenter in which the viruses evolve into newer subclades and continue to cause disease in humans.

Multiplex evaluation of influenza neutralizing antibodies with potential applicability to in-field serological studies [PDF]
The increased number of outbreaks of H5 and H7 LPAI and HPAI viruses in poultry has major public and animal health implications. The continuous rapid evolution of these subtypes and the emergence of new variants influence the ability to undertake ...

Higher titers of some H5N1 and recent human H1N1 and H3N2 influenza viruses in Mv1 Lu vs. MDCK cells
Background The infectivity of influenza A viruses can differ among the various primary cells and continuous cell lines used for such measurements. Over many years, we observed that all things equal, the cytopathic effects caused by influenza A subtype ...

Modeling highly pathogenic avian influenza transmission in wild birds and poultry in West Bengal, India. [PDF]
Wild birds are suspected to have played a role in highly pathogenic avian influenza (HPAI) H5N1 outbreaks in West Bengal. Cluster analysis showed that H5N1 was introduced in West Bengal at least 3 times between 2008 and 2010.

Isocyanides as Influenza A Virus Subtype H5N1 Wild‐Type M2 Channel Inhibitors
AbstractBasic bulky amines such as amantadine are well‐characterized M2 channel blockers, useful for treating influenza. Herein we report our surprising findings that charge‐neutral, bulky isocyanides exhibit activities similar to—or even higher than—that of amantadine.

Phylodynamics of H5N1 Highly Pathogenic Avian Influenza in Europe, 2005-2010: Potential for Molecular Surveillance of New Outbreaks. [PDF]
Previous Bayesian phylogeographic studies of H5N1 highly pathogenic avian influenza viruses (HPAIVs) explored the origin and spread of the epidemic from China into Russia, indicating that HPAIV circulated in Russia prior to its detection there in 2005 ...
