Journal ArticleDOI
Epidemiology, Genetic Recombination, and Pathogenesis of Coronaviruses
Shuo Su,Gary Wong,Weifeng Shi,Jun Liu,Jun Liu,Alexander Lai,Jiyong Zhou,Wenjun Liu,Yuhai Bi,George F. Gao +9 more
TL;DR: This review aims to compare and contrast the different HCoVs with regard to epidemiology and pathogenesis, in addition to the virus evolution and recombination events which have, on occasion, resulted in outbreaks amongst humans.
Journal ArticleDOI
Highly Pathogenic H5N1 Influenza Virus Infection in Migratory Birds
Jinhua Liu,Haixia Xiao,Fumin Lei,Qingyu Zhu,Kun Qin,Xiaowei Zhang,Xinglin Zhang,Deming Zhao,Guihua Wang,Youjun Feng,Juncai Ma,Wenjun Liu,Jian Wang,George F. Gao +13 more
TL;DR: An outbreak among migratory birds on Lake Qinghaihu, China, in May and June 2005, in which more than a thousand birds were affected, revealed four H5N1 AIV strains to be reassortants related to a peregrine falcon isolate from Hong Kong and to have known highly pathogenic characteristics.
Journal ArticleDOI
Origin and diversity of novel avian influenza A H7N9 viruses causing human infection: phylogenetic, structural, and coalescent analyses
Di Liu,Weifeng Shi,Yi Shi,Dayan Wang,Haixia Xiao,Wei Li,Yuhai Bi,Ying Wu,Xianbin Li,Jinghua Yan,Wenjun Liu,Guoping Zhao,Weizhong Yang,Yu Wang,Juncai Ma,Yuelong Shu,Fumin Lei,George F. Gao +17 more
TL;DR: Genotypic and potential phenotypic differences imply that the isolates causing this outbreak form two separate subclades, and diversity among isolates implies that the H7N9 virus has evolved into at least two different lineages.
Journal ArticleDOI
MERS, SARS, and Ebola: The Role of Super-Spreaders in Infectious Disease.
TL;DR: This work summarizes documented super-spreading in these outbreaks, explores contributing factors, and suggests studies to better understand super-Spreading.
Journal ArticleDOI
Structures and receptor binding of hemagglutinins from human-infecting H7N9 influenza viruses
Yi Shi,Wei Zhang,Fei Wang,Fei Wang,Jianxun Qi,Ying Wu,Hao Song,Feng Gao,Yuhai Bi,Yanfang Zhang,Zheng Fan,Cheng-Feng Qin,Honglei Sun,Jinhua Liu,Joel Haywood,Wenjun Liu,Weimin Gong,Dayan Wang,Yuelong Shu,Yu Wang,Jinghua Yan,George F. Gao +21 more
TL;DR: Comparing a mutant H7N9 A/Anhui/1/2013 HA with the bird flu H5N1 virus revealed the significance of some of the naturally occurring changes observed in circulating H7n9 viruses, which helps to explain how these viruses have been able to cause many severe human infections in a short time.
