文摘

We suggest a novel mechanism underlying cold-induced respiratory viral infection.

Ambient cold increases the expression of cell surface sialic acids.

Viral hemagglutinin binds to cold-induced sialic acid epitopes.

Hemagglutinin binding was blocked by sialyltransferase inhibitor and sialyl-LacNac.
