Glycoproteins D of Equine Herpesvirus Type 1 (EHV-1) and EHV-4 Determine Cellular Tropism Independently of Integrins
15 Dec 2011
Abstract excerpt
Equine herpesvirus type 1 (EHV-1) and EHV-4 are genetically and antigenically very similar, but their pathogenic potentials are strikingly different. The differences in pathogenicity between both viruses seem to be reflected in cellular host range: EHV-1 can readily be propagated in many cell types of multiple species, while EHV-4 entry and replication appear to be restricted mainly to equine cells. The clear...
