Figure 1From: Lack of the pattern recognition molecule mannose-binding lectin increases susceptibility to influenza A virus infectionRecombinant human MBL (rhMBL) binds and neutralizes IAV. Closed circles and open circles represent Phil82 and Phil82BS strain, respectively. A, rhMBL binding to IAV. B, Mannan inhibition of rhMBL-IAV binding. Both assays were performed in triplicates and expressed as mean ± SD. C, Neutralizing activity of rhMBL. Assay was performed in duplicates and repeated twice. All data was combined and expressed as mean ± SE. *, p < 0.05.Back to article page
