From:eLife (Vol. 11) Peer-ReviewedBackground: Over a life course, human adaptive immunity to antigenically mutable pathogens exhibits competitive and facilitative interactions. We hypothesize that such interactions may lead to cyclic dynamics in immune...

From:PLoS Pathogens (Vol. 16, Issue 7) Peer-ReviewedComplex exposure histories and immune mediated interactions between influenza strains contribute to the life course of human immunity to influenza. Antibody profiles can be generated by characterizing immune responses to...

From:Nature (Vol. 522, Issue 7544) Peer-ReviewedSince 2013 the occurrence of human infections by a novel avian H7N9 influenza virus in China has demonstrated the continuing threat posed by zoonotic pathogens (1,2). Although the first outbreak wave that was centred on...

From:Emerging Infectious Diseases (Vol. 20, Issue 3) Peer-ReviewedAvian-origin influenza A(H7N9) recently emerged in China, causing severe human disease. Several subtype H7N9 isolates contain influenza genes previously identified in viruses from finch-like birds. Because wild and...

From:PLoS Biology (Vol. 13, Issue 3) Peer-ReviewedThe immunity of a host population against specific influenza A strains can influence a number of important biological processes, from the emergence of new virus strains to the effectiveness of vaccination programmes....

From:Nature (Vol. 473, Issue 7348) Peer-ReviewedSwine influenza A viruses (SwIV) cause significant economic losses in animal husbandry as well as instances of human disease1 and occasionally give rise to human pandemics (2), including that caused by the H1N1/2009...

From:Influenza and Other Respiratory Viruses (Vol. 13, Issue 6) Peer-ReviewedAbstract: Background: Avian influenza A (H7N9) remains circulating in China. For countries at risk of introduction of H7N9, such as Vietnam, early detection of H7N9 virus is essential for the early containment of the...

From:Influenza and Other Respiratory Viruses (Vol. 10, Issue 6) Peer-ReviewedBackground: Serum antibody to influenza can be used to identify past exposure and measure current immune status. The two most common methods for measuring this are the hemagglutination inhibition assay (HI) and the...

From:Influenza and Other Respiratory Viruses (Vol. 15, Issue 2) Peer-ReviewedAbstract: Background: Influenza infection is often measured by a fourfold antibody titer increase over an influenza season (ie seroconversion). However, this approach may fail when influenza seasons are less distinct...

From:Nature (Vol. 502, Issue 7470) Peer-ReviewedA novel H7N9 influenza A virus first detected in March 2013 has since caused more than 130 human infections in China, resulting in 40 deaths (1,2). Preliminary analyses suggest that the virus is a reassortant of H7, N9...
