Antigenic and Genetic Characteristics of Swine-Origin 2009 A(H1N1) Influenza Viruses Circulating in Humans

Rebecca Garten, +62 more
- 10 Jul 2009 - 
TL;DR: The lack of similarity between the 2009 A(H1N1) virus and its nearest relatives indicates that its gene segments have been circulating undetected for an extended period as mentioned in this paper.
Journal ArticleDOI

Influenza-Associated Deaths among Children in the United States, 2003–2004

TL;DR: A substantial number of influenza-associated deaths occurred among U.S. children during the 2003-2004 influenza season, and high priority should be given to improvements in influenza-vaccine coverage and improvements in the diagnosis and treatment of influenza to reduce childhood mortality from influenza.
Journal ArticleDOI

Evolution of H5N1 avian influenza viruses in Asia

Jean Thierry Aubin, +93 more
TL;DR: Human infections were from a virus clade undergoing antigenic drift that showed resistance to adamantanes but sensitivity to neuraminidase inhibitors.
Journal ArticleDOI

Influenza: Propagation, Quantification, and Storage

TL;DR: MDCK cells are the preferred cell line for isolation of human influenza viruses from clinical specimens, and are divided into subtypes based on genetic and antigenic differences in the two surface spike proteins, hemagglutinin and neuraminidase.
