TL;DR: Investigating the genotype and cluster distribution of MeV in China over a 16-year period to establish a genetic baseline before MeV elimination in Western Pacific Region (WPR) found no evidence of selective pressure.
Journal ArticleDOI
Use of Synthetic Peptides to Identify Measles Nucleoprotein T-Cell Epitopes in Vaccinated and Naturally Infected Humans☆☆☆
TL;DR: Use of chimeric molecules containing multiple well-characterized T- and B-cell epitopes or genetic alteration of attenuated vaccine virus to enhance critical T-cell responses may eventually lead to the development of a vaccine candidate that can more closely model the patterns of immune response elicited by wild-type virus.
Journal ArticleDOI
Detection of Measles Virus RNA in Air and Surface Specimens in a Hospital Setting
Werner E. Bischoff,Rebecca J. McNall,Maria Blevins,JoLyn Turner,Elena N. Lopareva,Paul A. Rota,John R. Stehle +6 more
TL;DR: This is the first report of environmental surveillance for MeV, and the results suggest that MeV-infected fomites may be present in healthcare settings.
Journal ArticleDOI
Expansion of Surveillance for Vaccine-preventable Diseases: Building on the Global Polio Laboratory Network and the Global Measles and Rubella Laboratory Network Platforms.
Mick N. Mulders,Fatima Serhan,James L. Goodson,Joseph P. Icenogle,Barbara W. Johnson,Paul A. Rota +5 more
TL;DR: Labyrinthine laboratory networks provide accurate and timely laboratory confirmation of infections, an essential component of disease surveillance.
Journal ArticleDOI
Comparison of the immune response to variant influenza type B hemagglutinins expressed in vaccinia virus.
TL;DR: Results with this model system support the view that influenza vaccines prepared with egg-derived virus should be protective against microvariants of virus that grow preferentially in MDCK and possibly other mammalian cells.
