Published: October 2010

Analysis of pandemic caused by swine influenza virus H1N1/California showed moderate virulence of this virus compared to pandemic viruses, which caused pandemics in 1918, 1957, and 1968. During seasonal influenza epidemic in countries of southern hemisphere (June-August 2009) despite on circulation of H1N1/California strain, epidemics was caused by human influenza viruses H3N2 and H1N1. It was concluded that strain H1N1/California could not be attributed to pandemic strains of influenza viruses.

Background: We continue to struggle with the prevention and treatment of the influenza virus. The 2009 swine flu pandemic, caused by the H1N1 strain of influenza A, resulted in numerous fatalities. The threat of influenza remains a significant concern for global health, and the development of novel drugs targeting these viruses is highly desirable.

Objectives: We assessed the transmission of SARS-CoV-2 and vaccine receipt in a representative sample of wet market workers in a highly dense, low-income setting. Wet markets are key in many Asian settings, including Dhaka, Bangladesh, for fresh food, including animal protein.

Methods: During early 2022, we assessed the prevalence of anti-SARS-CoV-2 antibodies in a random sample of poultry and vegetable workers in 15 wet markets, and investigated associations with socio-demographic characteristics and COVID-19 vaccination.

Multiplex digital nucleic acid analysis (NAA) allows the precise quantification of multiple target nucleic acids with single-molecule sensitivity, making it highly appealing for life science research and clinical diagnostics. Nucleic acid-guided endonucleases, such as CRISPR, have demonstrated great potential in digital NAA. However, performing multiplex digital NAA with an endonuclease remains challenging.

GGCX promotes Eurasian avian-like H1N1 swine influenza virus adaption to interspecies receptor binding.

Nat Commun

January 2025

National Key Laboratory of Agricultural Microbiology, College of Veterinary Medicine, Huazhong Agricultural University, Wuhan, Hubei, People's Republic of China.

The Eurasian avian-like (EA) H1N1 swine influenza virus (SIV) possesses the capacity to instigate the next influenza pandemic, owing to its heightened affinity for the human-type α-2,6 sialic acid (SA) receptor. Nevertheless, the molecular mechanisms underlying the switch in receptor binding preferences of EA H1N1 SIV remain elusive. In this study, we conduct a comprehensive genome-wide CRISPR/Cas9 knockout screen utilizing EA H1N1 SIV in porcine kidney cells.
