}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…

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.

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.
