Description of Technology
Current influenza vaccines mainly
induce antibodies against the surface
glycoprotein hemagglutinin (HA) that
block viral attachment to its host
receptors and viral membrane fusion to
the host cell. The immunodominant
head region of HA undergoes antigenic
drift and antibodies directed to the head
confer little cross-protections between
strains or subtypes.
Researchers at the Vaccine Research
Center of the National Institute of
Allergy and Infectious Diseases have
identified human monoclonal
antibodies that each bind distinct
epitopes on the less abundant yet
critical viral surface glycoprotein
neuraminidase (NA). These antibodies,
isolated from convalescent individuals
with confirmed influenza A H3N2
infection, inhibit viral propagation of a
wide range of human H3N2, swineorigin variant H3N2, and H2N2 viruses
and confer pre-exposure and postexposure protection from lethal H3N2
infection in mice. Cryo-electron
microscopy revealed that two of these
antibodies bind non-overlapping
epitopes covering the underside of the
NA head, thus defining a potential
vaccine target.
This technology is available for
licensing for commercial development
in accordance with 35 U.S.C. 209 and 37
CFR part 404.
