Plasmids expressing porcine interferon gamma up-regulate pro-inflammatory cytokine and co-stimulatory molecule expression which are suppressed by porcine reproductive and respiratory syndrome virus
Porcine reproductive and respiratory syndrome virus (PRRSV) suppresses the pro-inflammatory immune response following infection of myeloid antigen-presenting cells. A reduced pro-inflammatory immune response modulates PRRSV replication, clinical disease, and persistent infection of the virus. Numero...
