Avian Influenza: A Potential Threat to Human Health
Throughout history, emerging viral infections have posed a threat to humanity. Avian influenza viruses (AIVs) are relatively more diverse and can... -
Development of mouse monoclonal antibody for detecting hemagglutinin of avian influenza A(H7N9) virus and preventing virus infection
AbstractMany cases of avian influenza A(H7N9) virus infection in humans have been reported since its first emergence in 2013. The disease is of...

Influenza from a One Health Perspective: Infection by a Highly Versatile Virus
Influenza A viruses (IAVs) are among the most versatile viruses, in terms of host range, pathogenesis, route of transmission, transmissibility... -
Nanoscale Vaccines for Influenza
Influenza, a contagious respiratory illness, spreads easily via contaminated surfaces and air. In majority of the cases, the symptoms are minor,... -
Defining the balance between optimal immunity and immunopathology in influenza virus infection
Influenza A viruses remain a global threat to human health, with continued pandemic potential. In this Review, we discuss our current understanding...
