In 2024, several human infections with highly pathogenic clade 2.3.4.4b bovine influenza H5N1 viruses in the United States raised concerns about their capability for bovine-to-human or even human-to-human transmission. this study, analysis of hemagglutinin (HA) from first-reported human-infecting virus (A/Texas/37/2024, Texas) revealed avian-type receptor binding preference. Notably, a Gln 226 Leu substitution switched Texas HA specificity to human-type receptors, which was enhanced when combined an Asn 224 Lys mutation. Crystal structures avian analog LSTa and its mutant LSTc elucidated structural basis preferential recognition. These findings highlight need continuous surveillance emerging mutations viruses.

Since the emergence of highly pathogenic avian influenza virus (HPAIV) H5N1 clade 2.3.4.4b as a novel reassortant from subtype H5N8, has led to massive number outbreaks worldwide in wild and domestic birds. Compared parental HPAIV H5N8 2.3.4.4b, displayed an increased ability escape species barriers infect multiple mammalian species, including humans. The host range been recently expanded include ruminants, particularly dairy cattle United States, where cattle-to-cattle transmission was reported. As with 2.3.4.4.b viruses, cattle-infecting found transmit other contact animals cats, raccoons, rodents, opossums, poultry. Although replication cows appears be mainly confined mammary tissue, high levels viral loads detected milk, infected cats poultry showed severe respiratory disease, neurologic signs, eventually died. Furthermore, several human infections have also reported farm workers were attributed exposures cattle. This is believed represent first mammalian-to-human report H5N1. Fortunately, infection humans cows, opposed animals, mild most cases. Nevertheless, bovine outbreak represents largest mammal close humans, increasing risk that this already adapted further adapts human-to-human starts pandemic. Herein, we discuss epidemiology, evolution, pathogenesis, potential impact identified States. Eventually, interdisciplinary cooperation under One Health framework required able control ongoing stop it before expansion its geographical distribution.

Abstract Between 16 March and 14 June 2024, 42 highly pathogenic avian influenza (HPAI) A(H5) virus detections were reported in domestic (15) wild (27) birds across 13 countries Europe. Although the overall number of Europe has not been this low since 2019–2020 epidemiological year, HPAI viruses continue to circulate at a very level. Most poultry due indirect contact with birds, but there was also secondary spread. Outside Europe, situation intensified particularly USA, where new A(H5N1) genotype (B3.13) identified >130 dairy herds 12 states. Infection cattle appears be centred on udder, milk from infected animals showing high viral loads representing vehicle transmission.

We genetically characterize HPAI viruses from showing an abrupt drop milk production, as well two cats, six wild birds, and one skunk. They share nearly identical genome sequences, forming a new genotype B3.13 within 2.3.4.4b clade. underwent reassortment events since 2023 exhibit critical mutations HA, M1, NS genes but lack PB2 PB1 genes, which enhance virulence or adaptation to mammals.

Abstract Clade 2.3.4.4b highly pathogenic H5N1 avian influenza (HPAI) viruses started circulating widely in lactating dairy cattle the United States at end of 2023. Avian enter cells after binding to glycan receptors with terminally linked α2-3 sialic acid, whereas human typically bind α2-6 acid upper respiratory tract. Here, we evaluated receptor properties hemagglutinin (HA) trimers from a clade isolate (A/American Wigeon/South Carolina/22-000345-001/2021) and (A/dairy cattle/Texas/24-008749-002-v/2024). Using two different methods, found that both H5s bound efficiently no detectable acid. Our data suggest poorly receptors. It will be important continue evaluating these as they evolve cattle.
