Response of Primary Human Airway Epithelial Cells to Influenza Infection: A Quantitative Proteomic Study

Abstract excerpt

Influenza A virus exerts a large health burden during both yearly epidemics and global pandemics. However, designing effective vaccine and treatment options has proven difficult since the virus evolves rapidly. Therefore, it may be beneficial to identify host proteins associated with viral infection and replication to establish potential new antiviral targets. We have previously measured host protein responses in...
