Contemporary Victoria and Yamagata Influenza B Viruses Elicit Lineage-Specific Differences in Innate Immunity
The two influenza B virus (FLUBV) lineages, Victoria and Yamagata, have continued to diverge since their separation in the 1970s, resulting in distinct antigenic characteristics and differences in immunity and cross-protection. Human epidemiological observations and experimental studies have identified lineage-specific differences in adaptive immune responses elicited by contemporary viruses,…
