Multiple Respiratory Syncytial Virus (RSV) Strains Infecting HEp-2 and A549 Cells Reveal Cell Line-Dependent Differences in Resistance to RSV Infection
14 Mar 2022
Abstract excerpt
Infection with the respiratory syncytial virus (RSV) early in life is essentially guaranteed and can lead to severe disease. Most RSV studies have involved either of two historic RSV/A strains infecting one of two cell lines, HEp-2 or A549 cells. However, RSV contains ample variation within two evolving subgroups (A and B), and HEp-2 and A549 cell lines are genetically distinct. Here, we measured viral action and...
