Influenza
  • Influenza is a viral respiratory infection
    characterized by upper and lower respiratory
    symptoms, fever, generalized malaises and
    myalgias.
  • Complications include viral pneumonia, bacterial
    superinfection, cytokine storm.
  • Wide range of clinical outcome of infection, from
    asymptomatic to fatal.

Influenza
  • La malatia per linfluenza della stella(the
    disease caused by the influence of the stars)
  • In French grippe, from French verb agripper
    (clinging)

Antigenicity of surface glycoproteins
  • Both HA (haemagglutinin) and NA (neuraminidase)
    are antigenic and trigger the apparition of
    antibodies
  • However, neutralizing epitopes are found on the
    HA neutralizing antibodies against HA provide
    immunity this is the basis for the use of
    current killed vaccines.

13
Genetic Drift
  • Minor changes resulting from point mutations in
    the gene segment coding for HA or NA approx.
    0.5 to 1 per year.
  • In HA, changes occurred throughout the protein
    but cluster in five hypervariable domains.

Fig.5 Natural variation in the HA of H3 strains
from 1961987. Location of amino acid differences
shown on the HA monomer in strains from years of
significant influenza activity are shown by
solvent accessible surfaces to represent the
altered HA antigenic surface site A-red site
B-yellow site C-magenta site D-blue, and site
E-green (as defined by Wiley et al. Generally
when changes occur throughout antigenic sites
(A-E) a new epidemic strain emerges (Wilson I.A.,
Cox NJ Annu Rev Immunol 1990 8 737)
16
Antigenic Shift
  • Unique to influenza A
  • Changes of HA and/or NA subtypes through genetic
    reassortment between different strains of
    influenza A virus in cells dually infected.
  • From the point of view of immune escape viruses,
    the changes in HA subtypes are the important ones.
