Influenza A virus. Variability: - Reassortment - Antigenic shift- Antigenic drift

When a single cell is infected by two or more different influenza viruses, reassortment, gene exchange between parental viruses, gives rise to new progeny viruses. 8 segments → 254 combinations

Reasons to study flu and universal vaccines in pigs:
• Pigs are a good flu vaccine model. Pigs can be naturally
infected by avian, swine and human flu viruses
• Pigs are a potential intermediate host and ¨mixing vessel¨
for flu viruses.
• Swine flu causes considerable economic loss to the pig
farming industry

• extensive influenza virus
infection
• non-neutralising M2e
antibodies
• the NP-specific T-helper
cells
• all act together to stimulate
macrophages in the lung,
leading to an over-
induction of cytokines
(TNF-), inflammation and
severe clinical signs.

Also, in 1918 those 5 to 14 years of age
accounted for a disproportionate number of
influenza cases, but had a much lower death
rate from influenza and pneumonia than other
age groups. To explain this pattern, we must
look beyond properties of the virus to host and
environmental factors, possibly including
immunopathology (e.g., antibody-dependent
infection enhancement associated with prior
virus exposures (as in dengue)) and exposure
to risk cofactors such as coinfecting agents,
medications, and environmental agents.

Conclusion
• Non-neutralizing antibodies to M2e
seem to cause exacerbation of disease
during influenza infection
• Especially in combination with cellular
immunity
• We should be very careful before
using M2e in people.
• Unfortunately this could not be
investigated further

M2e flu vaccine trial Acambis , January 2008Phase I clinical trial: 79 volunteers.Response measured in 90% of volunteers, and no adverse effects seen.
Adverse effects upon infection???Phase II clinical trial
M2e vaccine criticism, Company does not really expect a usable vaccine but does research on universal vaccines only to attract attention and raise the value of stocks.
WHO vaccine research, September 2009, results presented cast doubt on the feasibility of using safely M2e as an immunogen in humans.
Interest in M2e and universal vaccines has increased,
especially since the 2009 H1N1 outbreak.

Perhaps we will hear more about this vaccine in the future.
Or perhaps not….
