Svyatchenko SV, Goncharova NI, Marchenko VY, Kolos. An influenza A(H5N8) virus isolated during an outbreak at a poultry farm in Russia in 2017 has an N294S substitution in the neuraminidase and shows reduced susceptibility to oseltamivir. Antiviral Res. 2021 Apr 29:105079

This study aimed to assess the antiviral susceptibility of influenza A(H5N8) viruses isolated in Russia in 2014-2018. Genetic analysis of 57 Russian isolates with full genome sequences did not find any markers of reduced susceptibility to baloxavir. Only one strain bore an amino acid substitution associated with adamantane resistance (M2-S31N). The neuraminidase of 1 strain had an NA-N293/294S (N8/N2 numbering) substitution associated with reduced inhibition by oseltamivir and normal inhibition by zanamivir, which was confirmed phenotypically. There were no other strains with reduced inhibition by oseltamivir and zanamivir in the phenotypic analysis. In order to estimate the worldwide prevalence of influenza A(H5N8) viruses bearing genetic markers of antiviral resistance, genome sequences deposited in the GISAID database were analyzed (database access: October, 2020). The M2 protein of A(H5N8) viruses from the 2.3.4.4c clade had an M2-S31N substitution associated with reduced susceptibility to adamantanes. On the contrary, the majority (94%) of viruses from the 2.3.4.4b clade had the M2-S31 genotype. Fewer than 1% of analyzed viruses had amino acid substitutions associated with reduced susceptibility to baloxavir (PA-E199G, PA-E199E/G) or reduced or highly reduced inhibition by neuraminidase inhibitors (NA-R150/152K, NA-I221/222M, NA-I221/222I/M, NA-I221/222V, NA-I115/117V, NA-G145/147R, NA-R291/292R/K). An NA-N293/294S substitution was not present in sequences from the GISAID database. To the best of our knowledge, influenza A(H5N8) viruses with reduced inhibition by oseltamivir bearing an NA-N293/294S substitution have not been previously reported in epidemiological surveillance studies.
