Decoding the Distribution of Glycan Receptors for Human-Adapted Influenza A Viruses in Ferret Respiratory Tract

16 Feb 2012

Abstract excerpt

Ferrets are widely used as animal models for studying influenza A viral pathogenesis and transmissibility. Human-adapted influenza A viruses primarily target the upper respiratory tract in humans (infection of the lower respiratory tract is observed less frequently), while in ferrets, upon intranasal inoculation both upper and lower respiratory tract are targeted. Viral tropism is governed by distribution of...
