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

open access: yes, 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.

Isocyanides as Influenza A Virus Subtype H5N1 Wild‐Type M2 Channel Inhibitors

open access: yesChemMedChem, 2015
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.

Pathobiology of avian influenza in wild bird species [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
Avian influenza viruses, especially highly pathogenic avian influenza viruses (HPAIV), affect a wide range of species, including humans and have thus become a major concern for veterinary medicine and public health.

Geographic Co-distribution of Influenza Virus Subtypes H7N9 and H5N1 in Humans, China

open access: yesEmerging Infectious Diseases, 2013
To the Editor: Human infection with a novel low pathogenicity influenza A(H7N9) virus in eastern China has recently raised global public health concerns (1). The geographic sources of infection have yet to be fully clarified, and confirmed human cases from 1 province have not been linked to those from other provinces. While some studies have identified

Novel phylogenetic algorithm to monitor human tropism in Egyptian H5N1-HPAIV reveals evolution toward efficient human-to-human transmission [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
Years of endemic infections with highly pathogenic avian influenza (HPAI) A subtype H5N1 virus in poultry and high numbers of infections in humans provide ample opportunity in Egypt for H5N1-HPAIV to develop pandemic potential.

A single dose of DNA vaccine based on conserved H5N1 subtype proteins provides protection against lethal H5N1 challenge in mice pre-exposed to H1N1 influenza virus

open access: yesVirology Journal, 2010
Background Highly pathogenic avian influenza virus subtype H5N1 infects humans with a high fatality rate and has pandemic potential. Vaccination is the preferred approach for prevention of H5N1 infection.

Avian influenza (H5N1) virus, epidemiology and its effects on backyard poultry in Indonesia: a review [version 2; peer review: 2 approved]

open access: yesF1000Research, 2023
Avian influenza (AI) is a zoonotic viral endemic disease that affects poultry, swine, and mammals, including humans. Highly pathogenic avian influenza (HPAI) is caused by influenza type A virus subtypes H5, and H7 which are naturally carried by a wild ...
