Human influenza viruses attach to sialic acid with an α2,6linkage (SAα2,6Gal) on the airway epithelial cells, and the entry of the viruses into the cells and uncoating of the viruses require low pH of endosomes. Bafilomycin A1, a macrolide antibiotic and a specific inhibitor of vacuolar H+-ATPase, inhibits growth of type A and type B human influenza viruses in Madin-Darby canine kidney cells. However, the inhibitory effects of clinically used macrolide antibiotics on influenza virus infection… 
Levofloxacin Inhibits Rhinovirus Infection in Primary Cultures of Human Tracheal Epithelial Cells
TLDR
The results suggest that LVFX inhibits major-group rhinovirus infections in part by reducing ICAM-1 expression levels and the number of acidic endosomes, and may also modulate airway inflammation inrhinoviral infections.
Magnitude of influenza virus replication and cell damage is associated with interleukin-6 production in primary cultures of human tracheal epithelium
The effects of neuraminidase inhibitors on the release of oseltamivir‐sensitive and oseltamivir‐resistant influenza viruses from primary cultures of human tracheal epithelium
TLDR
These methods for measuring the release of virus and inflammatory cytokines from primary cultures of human tracheal epithelium may provide useful information regarding the effects of neuraminidase inhibitors on influenza viruses.
Azithromycin, a 15-membered macrolide antibiotic, inhibits influenza A(H1N1)pdm09 virus infection by interfering with virus internalization process
TLDR
The findings indicate the possibility that azithromycin could be an effective macrolide for the treatment of human influenza, and determine the anti-influenza A(H1N1)pdm09 virus activity of azathromycin, a re-positioned macrolides antibiotic with potential as a new anti- influenza candidate.
Serine Proteases and their Inhibitors in Human Airway Epithelial Cells: Effectson Influenza Virus Replication and Airway Serine Proteases and their Inhibitors in Human Airway Epithelial Cells: Effects on Influenza Virus Replication and Airway Inflammation
TLDR
Serine proteases expressed by human tracheal epithelial cells induce the proteolytic activation of influenza viruses and that serine protease inhibitors may reduce viral replication and the resultant production of inflammatory cytokines are suggested.
Leucomycin A3, a 16-membered macrolide antibiotic, inhibits influenza A virus infection and disease progression
TLDR
LM-A3 showed effective action against influenza A virus infection with high anti-viral activity in human host cells, indicating the possibility that LM-A 3 is a prospective lead compound for the development of a drug for human influenza.

Macrolide antibiotics inhibit respiratory syncytial virus infection in human airway epithelial cells.
Human and avian influenza viruses target different cell types in cultures of human airway epithelium.
TLDR
It is demonstrated that influenza viruses enter the airway epithelium through specific target cells and that there were striking differences in this respect between human and avian viruses.
Bafilomycin A(1) inhibits rhinovirus infection in human airway epithelium: effects on endosome and ICAM-1.
TLDR
Bafilomycin A(1) may inhibit infection by RV14 by not only blocking RV RNA entry into the endosomes but also reducing ICAM-1 expression in the epithelial cells, which may modulate airway inflammation after RV infection.
Erythromycin inhibits rhinovirus infection in cultured human tracheal epithelial cells.
TLDR
The results suggest that erythromycin inhibits infection by the major RV subgroup by reducing ICAM-1 and infection by both RV subgroups by blocking the RV RNA entry into the endosomes.
[Influenza virus receptors in the human airway].
TLDR
It is demonstrated that the epithelial cells in the upper respiratory tract of humans mainly possess sialic acid linked to galactose by alpha 2,6 linkages, a molecule preferentially recognized by human viruses, which is consistent with the observation that H5N1 viruses can be directly transmitted from birds to humans and cause serious lower respiratory tract damage in humans.
Infection of a human respiratory epithelial cell line with rhinovirus. Induction of cytokine release and modulation of susceptibility to infection by cytokine exposure.
TLDR
This model is developed, for the first time, a model in which a pure respiratory epithelial cell population can be routinely infected by rhinovirus, and it is demonstrated that rh inovirus infection induced increased production of IL-8, IL-6, and GM-CSF from epithelial cells.

TLDR
The results indicate that EM may have substantial therapeutic value for various acute inflammatory disorders such as influenza-virus-induced pneumonia, by inhibiting inflammatory-cell responses and suppressing NO overproduction in the lung.
Avian flu: Influenza virus receptors in the human airway
TLDR
An anatomical difference in the distribution in the human airway of the different binding molecules preferred by the avian and human influenza viruses is demonstrated to provide a rational explanation for why H5N1 viruses at present rarely infect and spread between humans although they can replicate efficiently in the lungs.
