  1. ''At the same time, the #bovine #H5N1 #HA protein can significantly bind to #human #conjunctiva, #trachea, #lung and #mammary tissues, while the HA proteins of #H1N1 and #H3N2 viruses can only significantly bind to human tracheal tissues.''

  2. #Avian and #Human #Influenza A Virus #Receptors in #Bovine #Mammary #Gland, Emerg Infect Dis.: wwwnc.cdc.gov/eid/article/30/9

    An outbreak of influenza A (#H5N1) virus was detected in dairy cows in the #USA. We detected influenza A virus #sialic acid -α2,3/α2,6-galactose host receptors in bovine mammary glands by lectin histochemistry. Our results provide a rationale for the high levels of H5N1 virus in #milk from infected cows.

  3. Fucosylated and non-fucosylated alpha2,3 #sialosides were detected on the #bovine #mammary #gland tissues, BioRxIV: biorxiv.org/content/10.1101/20

    Receptors for high pathogenicity avian #influenza viruses (#HPAIVs) in mammary glands of dairy #cattle were detected using various recombinant #hemagglutinins (rHAs). Results demonstrated presence of fucosylated and non-fucosylated alpha2,3 sialosides, which were typically targeted by the HA of clade 2.3.4.4b HPAIVs.

  4. The #avian and #human #influenza A virus #receptors #sialic acid (SA)-α2,3 and SA-α2,6 are widely expressed in the #bovine #mammary #gland, BioRxIV, biorxiv.org/content/10.1101/20

    IAVs isolated from chickens generally bind more tightly to SA-α2,3-Gal-β1,4 (chicken receptor), whereas IAVs isolated from duck to SA-α2,3-Gal-β1,3 (duck receptor). We found all receptors were expressed, to a different degree, in the mammary gland, respiratory tract, and cerebrum of beef and/or dairy cattle.
