Innate Immune Responses to Replication of Porcine Reproductive And Respiratory Syndrome Virus in Isolated Swine Alveolar Macrophages
1 Mar 2007
Abstract excerpt
Porcine reproductive and respiratory syndrome (PRRS) is an infectious disease caused by a positive RNA strand arterivirus. PRRS virus (PRRSV) interacts primarily with lung macrophages. Identifying the genetic components involved in host resistance/susceptibility would represent an important step forward in the design of disease control programs. In this study, alveolar macrophages derived from five commercial pig...
