NewsInfluenza viruses can use two ways to infect cells, study finds
Scientists have discovered that certain human flu viruses and avian flu viruses can use a second entry pathway, a protein complex of the immune system, to infect cells, helping the viruses to infect different species.

NewsNew antibodies target “dark side” of influenza virus protein
Researchers have identified antibodies targeting a hard-to-spot region of the influenza virus, shedding light on the relatively unexplored “dark side” of the neuraminidase (NA) protein head.
-
NewsInteractions between flu subtypes predict epidemic severity more than virus evolution
An analysis of influenza virus evolution over 22 years of flu seasons reveals the major drivers of disease transmission and epidemic severity.

NewsSevere lung damage caused when flu is followed by infection with measles-like virus
Infection with a measles-like virus causes catastrophic lung failure in ferrets previously infected with influenza virus or respiratory syncytial virus, according to a new study.
-
NewsGut microbiota influence severity of respiratory viral infection
The composition of microbiota found in the gut influences how susceptible mice are to respiratory virus infections and the severity of these infections, a new study reveals.
-
NewsStudy sheds light on how viral infections interact with our bodies
A new longitudinal study of symptomatic, asymptomatic, and mild infections sheds light on how our bodies respond to these infections on a molecular level.
-
NewsVaccine speeds up the production of antibodies against Covid
A new vaccine uses preexisting immunity to a separate virus (the influenza virus) to help kickstart the process of making antibodies against SARS-CoV-2.

NewsExperiments in infant mice suggest new way to prevent spread of flu in people
A new study in infant mice shows that keeping virus particles from attaching to sialic acids limits more than just the entry of influenza A viral infections, but also hinders their exit (shedding) and transmission from mouse to mouse.
