| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Influenza A virus (IAV) causes significant morbidity and mortality. We found that energy metabolic disorder is a principal cause of multiorgan failure in severe influenza virus infection. Among the analyzed biomarkers in the blood, lactate/ATP ratio is a useful and prognostic biomarker of the disease severity in animal model and clinical data. In addition, we established SmartAmp system for detection of thermolabile carnitine palmitoyltransferase 2 SNPs as risk factors for influenza associated encephalopathy in the infected young children.
