ARPE-19 Epithelial Cells Fail To Initiate Type-I Interferon Signaling in Response to Human Cytomegalovirus Infection
2024-08-01
Abstract excerpt
ARPE-19 cells are a commonly used epithelial model for studying human cytomegalovirus (HCMV) infection. We recently found that ARPE-19 cells assume a mesenchymal phenotype when maintained at low confluency and that ARPE-19 cells resemble mesenchymal fibroblasts rather than epithelial cells in HCMV infection assays. Here, using comparative proteomics analysis, we find that subconfluent ARPE-19 cells are also defici...
