Interferon-gamma inhibits influenza A virus cellular attachment by reducing sialic acid cluster size
Summary: The mucosal antiviral role of type I and III interferon in influenza virus infection is well established. However, much less is known about the antiviral mechanism of type II interferon (interferon-gamma).
