Type A influenza virus in humans and animals, an antibody found effective against all subtypes. Antibody, known as swine flu, which is one of the novel H1N1 influenza A virus subtypes, also influence

LONDON - UK medical research institution, an official at the National Institute for Medical Research in Switzerland with a special collaboration of scientists in scientific research organization Humabs'tan, F16 at the super-antibody, a type A influenza virus subtype is the 16 currently available reported to be effective against all.
Scientists, scientific research are published in the journal Science yesterday, F16 antibody, very rare in the human body in order to increase the chances of finding huge amounts of antibodies in human plasma cells, which have revealed a new method that allows testing said.Scientists, with the help of x-rays, X-ray crystallography that the opportunity to see the structure of the cells using a new method with the F16 antibody in mice given gelinciklerinin mountain, the two main groups of type A influenza virus against all of the subtypes observed korunduklarının said.The researchers, studies, yet the initial stage, although there were only one type of vaccine against all influenza virus types that are important for the development path that could be highlighted.
The flu virus infects the person's body is determined that they received in the target protein, called hemagglutinin antibodies virüslerdeki researchers, 16, sub-type of type A influenza virus, known also as a result of changes in the protein quickly emerged as a result noted.
The human body is usually only a specific subtype of type A influenza virus were producing antibodies against the notable researchers, therefore, the resulting A-type influenza virus each year a new vaccine against a new subtype reported kalındığını have to be developed.
Science research organizations that contribute to the study by Humabs Switzerland Swiss Institute for Research in Biomedicine in Switzerland's chief officer, and founding director of biomedical research by Antonio Lanzavecchia said in a statement on the issue, "F16 antibody, a type A flu virus is effective against all known subtypes of due, is emerging as an important new treatment option, "he said.
A, B and C, called 3 different influenza viruses type A and type B viruses in the virus that causes the most severe types of infections, as is known. Of influenza viruses, especially type A flu virus antigenic changes occurring continuously, only one type of viruses is seen as the biggest obstacle to the development of vaccines. (Mm)
