DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): This proposal requests support for a Keystone Symposia meeting entitled Pathogenesis of Influenza: Virus- Host Interactions, organized by Siamon Gordon, Malik Peiris and Kanta Subbarao, which will be held in Hong Kong, China from May 23 - 28, 2011. The mechanisms underlying the pathogenesis of influenza remain controversial. The direct cytopathic effects of viral replication, tissue tropism of the virus, viral-bacterial synergy, as well as innate host responses are inextricably linked and play roles to varying degrees in "seasonal," zoonotic and pandemic influenza, examples being the pandemics of 1918 and 2009 and H5N1 avian influenza. Animal models, though indispensible, have significant limitations with regard to physiological relevance to human disease. This meeting brings together researchers working on the virus, viral receptors and tissue tropism, innate and adaptive immunity, systems biology and clinical aspects of lung injury and host defense to address questions on the pathogenesis of influenza. The aim will be to integrate data from animal and human experimental models - both ex vivo and in vitro - as well as human disease to understand pathogenesis of influenza and how this may lead to effective interventions. As this symposium will take place in the aftermath of the first pandemic in 40 years, there will be a wealth of new knowledge as well as intense scientific interest in the subject. In view of the particular interest in influenza and other viral respiratory diseases generated in the Asia-Pacific region arising from the avian flu H5N1 and SARS experience, situating the meeting in Hong Kong will be particularly appropriate. PUBLIC HEALTH RELEVANCE: Pandemic influenza remains a major public health issue. There is an urgent need to better understand the origination and development - or pathogenesis - of severe viral infections that cause lung injury, and to explore novel therapeutic options targeting the host. The Keystone Symposia meeting on Pathogenesis of Influenza: Virus-Host Interactions aims to improve our understanding of determinants that facilitate inter- species transmission of influenza viruses.

描述（由申请人提供）：该提案要求支持Keystone研讨会会议，题为“流感的发病机理：病毒 - 宿主的互动”，由Siamon Gordon，Malik Peiris和Kanta Subbarao组织，该组织将于2011年5月23日至28日在中国香港举行。病毒复制，病毒的组织端主，病毒 - 细菌协同作用以及先天宿主的反应的直接细胞病理作用与1918年和2009年的pandemics pandemics pandemicts pandemics conseptian和2009年和2009年的pandemics密不可分。动物模型虽然不可或缺，但在与人类疾病的生理相关性方面有重大局限性。这次会议汇集了研究病毒，病毒受体和组织疗法，先天和适应性免疫，系统生物学和肺损伤的临床方面的研究人员，以解决有关流感发病机理的问题。目的是整合来自动物和人类实验模型的数据，包括离体和体外 - 以及人类疾病，以了解流感的发病机理，以及这可能导致有效的干预措施。由于该研讨会将在40年来第一大流行之后举行，因此将有大量的新知识以及对该主题的强烈科学兴趣。鉴于对禽流感H5N1和SARS经验引起的亚太地区产生的流感和其他病毒呼吸道疾病的特别兴趣，在香港会议上将特别合适。 公共卫生相关性：大流行性流感仍然是一个主要的公共卫生问题。迫切需要更好地理解导致肺损伤的严重病毒感染的起源和发育或发病机理，并探索针对宿主的新型治疗选择。 Keystone研讨会关于流感发病机理的会议：病毒 - 宿主相互作用旨在提高我们对促进流感病毒相互传播的决定因素的理解。
