Influenza virus infections.
Ninety-six strains of influenza A and 113 influenza B were found in the two MRC/PHLS surveys. In the general practitioner survey the majority of strains were isolated from cases diagnosed as influenza but in hospital most came from cases diagnosed as having other respiratory infections. In the latter survey isolation rates were higher in upper respiratory tract infection than in lower ones but ...
متن کاملNewer respiratory virus infections: human metapneumovirus, avian influenza virus, and human coronaviruses.
PURPOSE OF REVIEW Recently, several previously unrecognized respiratory viral pathogens have been identified and several influenza A virus subtypes, previously known to infect poultry and wild birds, were transmitted to humans. Here we review the recent literature on these respiratory viruses. RECENT FINDINGS Human metapneumovirus has now been detected worldwide, causing severe respiratory tr...
متن کاملRecurring Influenza B Virus Infections in Seals
To the Editor: Until 1999, influenza B virus was considered to infect humans only. However, more recent data proved that harbor seals (Phoca vitulina) and gray seals (Halichoerus grypus) also can be infected (1). Since the identification of seals as a novel host, antibodies against human influenza B viruses have been detected in some additional otarid and phocid species in a few relatively smal...
متن کاملHost species barriers to influenza virus infections.
Most emerging infectious diseases in humans originate from animal reservoirs; to contain and eradicate these diseases we need to understand how and why some pathogens become capable of crossing host species barriers. Influenza virus illustrates the interaction of factors that limit the transmission and subsequent establishment of an infection in a novel host species. Influenza species barriers ...
متن کاملPI3K signalling during influenza A virus infections.
Recent work has demonstrated that the PI3K (phosphoinositide 3-kinase) signalling pathway is important for efficient influenza A virus replication. Activation of PI3K in virus-infected cells is mediated by the viral NS1 protein, which binds directly to the p85beta regulatory subunit of PI3K and causes the PI3K-dependent phosphorylation of Akt (protein kinase B). Given that recombinant influenza...
