Comparative RNA-sequencing in bank vole kidney and respiratory tract cells shows both shared and virus- and tissue-specific transcriptomic regulatory pathways after infection with three orthohantaviruses.
- Why it matters: Understanding how orthohantaviruses interact with host cells in their natural reservoir is critical because human disease is linked to dysregulated immune responses and outbreaks raise reassortment risks.
- What they did: The study used comparative transcriptomic analysis of RNA-sequencing data from bank vole-derived kidney and respiratory epithelial cells infected with three different orthohantaviruses.
- The result: The results indicate complex, cell-type– and virus-dependent innate immune and antiviral signaling responses, helping explain distinct infection outcomes within bank vole tissues.
