This study analyzes the spread and adaptation of H5N1 influenza in North America, finding increased host range and improved mammalian replication, with reduced antiviral effectiveness in some isolates.

This study computationally models H5 influenza variants against HA1-neutralizing antibodies, showing weakening antibody binding over time and increased immune evasion risks.

This study compares the gut microbiome and resistome of patients undergoing home versus hospital hematopoietic stem cell transplantation, finding no significant differences but noting confounding factors in secondary analyses.

This study predicts binding affinity between SARS-CoV-2 variants BA.2.86 and JN.1 and antibodies/ACE2 using in silico modeling, finding minor reductions in affinity but no significant immune escape.
