CD163-Expressing Porcine Macrophages Support NADC30-like and NADC34-like PRRSV Infections
16 Sept 2022
Abstract excerpt
Porcine reproductive and respiratory syndrome virus (PRRSV) has a strict cell tropism. In addition to the primary alveolar macrophages, PRRSV is strictly cytotropic to African green monkey kidney cells, such as MARC-145 cells; however, MARC-145 cells are not infected by most NADC30-like and NADC34-like PRRSV strains. The essential scavenger receptor CD163 has been proved to mediate productive infection of PRRSV...
