}The prevalence of influenza C virus among pigs in Hyogo Prefecture, Japan, was investigated by serological techniques. Out of 240 sera tested, 45 (19%) showed haemagglutination inhibition (HI) to influenza C virus. Pig sera with high HI titres also scored high in neutralization tests and ELISAs. When fractionated by sucrose density gradient ultracentrifugation, the HI/ELISA reactivities corresponded to antibodies of the IgM and IgG classes. Radioimmunoprecipitation tests revealed that some, but…

Results suggest that C/OK virus represents a new subtype of influenza C viruses that currently circulates in pigs that has not been recognized previously and raises the possibility of reassortment and antigenic shift as mechanisms of influenzaC virus evolution.

Deep RNA sequencing, phylogenetic analysis, and in vitro reassortment experiments demonstrate that animal ICV-like viruses are genetically distinct from human ICV and suggest that bovine influenza virus warrants classification as a new genus of influenza virus.

The immune system of mammals often fails to recognize new antigenic variants of influenza C virus, resulting in outbreaks of diseases, although the structure of antigens in influenza Cirus in general is much more stable than those of influenza viruses A and B.

The current systematic review summarizes the original research articles and case reports of all the four types of influenza viruses reported in swine populations worldwide and finds the findings are alarming hence active surveillance should be in place to prevent future influenza pandemics.

Influenza B and Influenza C Viruses
- Medicine, Biology

Influenza B and C viruses are similar in morphology and composition, and in their replication processes, to influenza A viruses, but no antigenic cross reactivity among these viruses has been detected, and they are therefore classified as completely unrelated antigenic types.
