| determinants of glycan receptor specificity of h2n2 influenza a virus hemagglutinin. | the h2n2 subtype of influenza a virus was responsible for the asian pandemic of 1957-58. however, unlike other subtypes that have caused pandemics such as h1n1 and h3n2, which continue to circulate among humans, h2n2 stopped circulating in the human population in 1968. strains of h2 subtype still continue to circulate in birds and occasionally pigs and could be reintroduced into the human population through antigenic drift or shift. such an event is a potential global health concern because of t ... | 2010 | 21060797 |
| the pathogenicity and transmission of live bird market h2n2 avian influenza viruses in chickens, pekin ducks, and guinea fowl. | h2n2 subtype low pathogenic avian influenza viruses (lpaivs) have persisted in live bird markets (lbms) in the northeastern united states since 2014. although unrelated to the 1957 pandemic h2n2 lineage, there is concern that the virus could have animal and public health consequences because of high contact with humans and numerous species in the lbm system. the pathogenicity, infectivity, and transmissibility of six lbm h2n2 viruses isolated from three avian species in lbms were examined in chi ... | 2021 | 34271303 |
