Matrix Protein 2 Vaccination and Protection against Influenza Viruses, Including Subtype H5N1

Matrix Protein 2 Vaccination and Protection against Influenza Viruses, Including Subtype H5N1

Changes in influenza viruses require regular reformulation of strain-specific influenza vaccines. Vaccines based on conserved antigens provide broader protection. Influenza matrix protein 2 (M2) is highly conserved across influenza A subtypes. To evaluate its efficacy as a vaccine candidate, we vacc...
