Human anti-N1 monoclonal antibodies elicited by pandemic H1N1 virus infection broadly inhibit HxN1 viruses in vitro and in vivo

L Hansen, M McMahon, HL Turner, X Zhu, JS Turner… - Immunity, 2023 - cell.com
Neuraminidase (NA) is one of the two influenza virus surface glycoproteins, and antibodies
that target it are an independent correlate of protection. However, our current understanding …

Antibody-mediated NK cell activation as a correlate of immunity against influenza infection

CM Boudreau, JS Burke IV, AS Yousif… - Nature …, 2023 - nature.com
Antibodies play a critical role in protection against influenza; yet titers and viral neutralization
represent incomplete correlates of immunity. Instead, the ability of antibodies to leverage the …
