Incidence of Influenza A(H1N1)pdm09 Infection, United Kingdom, 2009–2011

open access: yesEmerging Infectious Diseases, 2013
We conducted a longitudinal community cohort study of healthy adults in the UK. We found significantly higher incidence of influenza A(H1N1)pdm09 infection in 2010–11 than in 2009–10, a substantial proportion of subclinical infection, and higher risk for

Polymer-stabilized sialylated nanoparticles : synthesis, optimization, and differential binding to influenza hemagglutinins [PDF]

open access: yes, 2020
During influenza infection, hemagglutinins (HAs) on the viral surface bind to sialic acids on the host cell's surface. While all HAs bind sialic acids, human influenza targets terminal α2,6 sialic acids and avian influenza targets α2,3 sialic acids.

The characteristics and antigenic properties of recently emerged subclade 3C.3a and 3C.2a human influenza A(H3N2) viruses passaged in MDCK cells

open access: yesInfluenza and Other Respiratory Viruses, 2017
Two new subclades of influenza A(H3N2) viruses became prominent during the 2014‐2015 Northern Hemisphere influenza season. The HA glycoproteins of these viruses showed sequence changes previously associated with alterations in receptor‐binding properties.
