Susceptibility of Canada Geese (Branta canadensis) to Highly Pathogenic Avian Influenza Virus (H5N1)
Migratory birds have been implicated in the long-range spread of highly pathogenic avian influenza (HPAI) A virus (H5N1) from Asia to Europe and Africa.

A protective role for complement C3 protein during pandemic 2009 H1N1 and H5N1 influenza A virus infection. [PDF]
Highly pathogenic H5N1 influenza infections are associated with enhanced inflammatory and cytokine responses, severe lung damage, and an overall dysregulation of innate immunity.

Influenza A H5N1 Replication Sites in Humans
Tissue tropism and pathogenesis of influenza A virus subtype H5N1 disease in humans is not well defined. In mammalian experimental models, H5N1 influenza is a disseminated disease.

Development of DNA-Biochip for Identification of Influenza A Virus Subtypes
Developed was the DNA-biochip to identify subtypes of influenza A virus, pathogenic for humans. Microchip was capable of detecting H1, H3, H5-subtypes of hemagglutinin (including H1-subtype of pandemic A/H1N1(2009) influenza virus ) and neuraminidase ...

Vaccination against human influenza A/H3N2 virus prevents the induction of heterosubtypic immunity against lethal infection with avian influenza A/H5N1 virus. [PDF]
Annual vaccination against seasonal influenza viruses is recommended for certain individuals that have a high risk for complications resulting from infection with these viruses.

Massive Mobilization of Dendritic Cells During Influenza A Virus Subtype H5N1 Infection of Nonhuman Primates [PDF]
Highly pathogenic avian influenza virus infection is characterized by a marked inflammatory response, but the impact of infection on dendritic cells (DCs) is unknown. We show that influenza A virus subtype H5N1 infection rapidly and profoundly impacts DCs in cynomolgus macaques, increasing the number of blood myeloid and plasmacytoid DCs by 16- and 60 ...

Marked Rise in Replikin Counts in H5N1 Influenza Virus Localized to Lethality Gene p B1. [PDF]
: Virus outbreaks have been found to be related to the concentration of a new class of genomic peptides, Replikins^1^. The eight genes of H5N1 influenza virus were analyzed for the distribution of Replikin Counts (number Replikins /100 amino acids) in 2 ...

Highly Pathogenic Avian Influenza Virus Infection in Feral Raccoons, Japan
Although raccoons (Procyon lotor) are susceptible to influenza viruses, highly pathogenic avian influenza virus (H5N1) infection in these animals has not been reported.

Tissue culture propagation of highly pathogenic avian influenza H5N1 virus [PDF]
Avian influenza virus usually refers to influenza A viruses found chiefly in birds, but infections can occur in humans. The risk is generally low to most people, because the viruses do not usually infect humans.
