Study finds dermcidin protein blocks flu virus entry.
A new study suggests a protein called dermcidin, found in sweat and saliva, helps explain why some people never get the flu.
Researchers found this natural peptide blocks the virus by binding to a key protein, preventing it from entering cells.
Asymptomatic individuals had about six times higher levels of dermcidin, suggesting it may offer broad protection against flu strains and other respiratory viruses.
