Meng F, Yang H, Qu Z, Chen Y, Zhang Y, Zhang Y, Li. A Eurasian avian-like H1N1 swine influenza reassortant virus became pathogenic and highly transmissible due to mutations in its PA gene. Proc Natl Acad Sci U S A. 2022 Aug 23;119(34):e220. Abstract submitted by kickingbird at 20 hours ago from Proc Natl Acad Sci U S A. 2022 Aug 23;119(34):e220 Previous studies have shown that the Eurasian avian-like H1N1 (EA H1N1) swine influenza viruses circulated widely in pigs around the world and formed multiple genotypes by acquiring non-hemagglutinin and ... Rimondi A, Olivera VS, Soria I, Parisi GD, Rumbo M. Few Amino Acid Mutations in H6 Influenza A Virus From South American Lineage Increase Viral Replication Efficiency in Poultry. Front Microbiol. 2022 Jul 27;13:953738. Abstract submitted by kickingbird at 20 hours ago from Front Microbiol. 2022 Jul 27;13:953738 In chickens, infections due to influenza A virus (IAV) can be mild to severe and lethal. The study of IAV infections in poultry has been mostly limited to strains from the North American and Eurasian lineages, ... Strohmeier S, Amanat F, Carre?o JM, Krammer F. Monoclonal antibodies targeting the influenza virus N6 neuraminidase. Front Immunol. 2022 Jul 27;13:944907. Abstract submitted by kickingbird at 20 hours ago from Front Immunol. 2022 Jul 27;13:944907 Influenza A viruses are a diverse species that include 16 true hemagglutinin (HA) subtypes and 9 true neuraminidase (NA) subtypes. While the antigenicity of many HA subtypes is reasonably well studied, ... Rao S, Moss A, Lamb M, Innis BL, Asturias EJ. Vital sign predictors of severe influenza among children in an emergent care setting. PLoS One. 2022 Aug 12;17(8):e0272029. Abstract submitted by kickingbird at 3 days ago from PLoS One. 2022 Aug 12;17(8):e0272029 Background: Decisions regarding the evaluation of children with influenza infection rely on the likelihood of severe disease. The role of early vital signs as predictors of severe influenza infection in ... Zhang Y, Eskridge KM, Zhang S, Lu G. Identifying host-specific amino acid signatures for influenza A viruses using an adjusted entropy measure. BMC Bioinformatics. 2022 Aug 12;23(1):333. Abstract submitted by kickingbird at 3 days ago from BMC Bioinformatics. 2022 Aug 12;23(1):333 Background: Influenza A viruses (IAV) exhibit vast genetic mutability and have great zoonotic potential to infect avian and mammalian hosts and are known to be responsible for a number of pandemics.
