Abstract

Influenza A virus (IAV) and influenza B virus (IBV) cause substantial morbidity and mortality during annual epidemics. Two distinct lineages of IBV are distinguished, based on variation in hemagglutinin (HA): B/Victoria/2/87-like (B/Vic) and B/Yamagata/16/88-like (B/Yam). Here, we show that, in humans, primary IBV infection with either lineage induces HA-specific antibody-dependent cellular cytotoxicity (ADCC)-mediating antibodies. IBV infection induced antibodies specific to the HA head and stalk, but only HA stalk-specific antibodies mediated ADCC efficiently and displayed cross-reactivity with IBV of both lineages. This corresponds to recent findings that 2 points of contact between the effector and target cell (ie, HA and sialic acid, respectively, and the fragment crystallizable [Fc] domain and Fcγ receptor IIIα, respectively) are required for efficient ADCC activity and that antibodies specific for the receptor-binding site located in the head domain of HA therefore fail to mediate ADCC. Potentially, ADCC-mediating antibodies directed to the HA stalk of IBV contribute to cross-protective immunity to IBV of both lineages.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
