Swine influenza virus (SIV) is a highly contagious pathogen that poses significant economic challenges to the swine industry and carries zoonotic potential, underscoring the need for vigilant surveillance. In this study, we performed a comprehensive genetic and molecular analysis of H3N2 SIV isolates obtained from 372 swine samples collected in Shandong Province, China. Phylogenetic analysis revealed two distinct genotypes.

Background/aim: The Kaplan-Meier curves for patients treated with immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICIs) display a small group of potentially-cured patients with long-term survival, creating a 'kangaroo-tail' shape of the survival curve. However, the mechanistic basis of this phenomenon and what occurs in patients whose cancer is resistant to ICIs remain unclear. The present study aimed to answer these questions.

The H3 subtype of avian influenza virus (AIV) stands out as one of the most prevalent subtypes, posing a significant threat to public health. In this study, a novel triple-reassortant H3N3 AIV designated A/chicken/China/16/2023 (H3N3), was isolated from a sick chicken in northern China. The complete genome of the isolate was determined using next-generation sequencing, and the AIV-like particles were confirmed via transmission electron microscopy.

Wild birds are important hosts of influenza A viruses (IAVs) and play an important role in their ecology. The emergence of the A/goose/Guangdong/1/1996 H5N1 (Gs/GD) lineage marked a shift in IAV ecology, leading to recurrent outbreaks and mortality in wild birds from 2002 onwards. This lineage has evolved and diversified over time, with a recent important derivative being the 2.

Dendritic and axonal plasticity, which mediates neurobiological recovery after a stroke, critically depends on the mitochondrial function of neurons. To investigate, in vivo, neuronal mitochondrial function at the stroke recovery stage, we employed Mito-tag mice combined with cerebral cortical infection of AAV9 produced from plasmids carrying Cre-recombinase controlled by two neuronal promoters, synapsin-I (SYN1) and calmodulin-kinase IIa to induce expression of a hemagglutinin (HA)-tagged enhanced green fluorescence protein (EGFP) that localizes to mitochondrial outer membranes of SYN1 positive (SYN) and CaMKIIa positive (CaMKIIa) neurons. These mice were then subjected to permanent middle cerebral artery occlusion (MCAO) and sacrificed 14 days post stroke.
