Chicken and duck myotubes are highly susceptible and permissive to influenza virus infection (2014)
Journal Article
Baquero-Perez, B., Kuchipudi, S. V., Ho, J., Sebastian, S., Puranik, A., Howard, W., …Chang, K.-C. (2015). Chicken and duck myotubes are highly susceptible and permissive to influenza virus infection. Journal of Virology, 89(5), https://doi.org/10.1128/JVI.03421-14

Skeletal muscle, at 30 to 40% of body mass, is the most abundant soft tissue in the body. Besides its primary function in movement and posture, skeletal muscle is a significant innate immune organ with the capacity to produce cytokines and chemokines...

Highly pathogenic avian influenza virus infection in chickens but not ducks is associated with elevated host immune and pro-inflammatory responses (2014)
Journal Article
Kuchipudi, S. V., Tellabati, M., Sebastian, S., Londt, B. Z., Jansen, C., Vervelde, L., …Chang, K.-C. (2014). Highly pathogenic avian influenza virus infection in chickens but not ducks is associated with elevated host immune and pro-inflammatory responses.

© 2014 Kuchipudi et al.; licensee BioMed Central Ltd. Highly pathogenic avian influenza (HPAI) H5N1 viruses cause severe infection in chickens at near complete mortality, but corresponding infection in ducks is typically mild or asymptomatic. To unde...

High basal expression of interferon-stimulated genes in human bronchial epithelial (BEAS-2B) cells contributes to influenza A virus resistance (2014)
Journal Article
Seng, L.-G., Daly, J. M., Chang, K.-C., & Kuchipudi, S. V. (2014). High basal expression of interferon-stimulated genes in human bronchial epithelial (BEAS-2B) cells contributes to influenza A virus resistance. PLoS ONE, 9, Article e109023. https://doi.org/10.1371/journal.pone.0109023

Respiratory epithelial cells play a key role in influenza A virus (IAV) pathogenesis and host innate response. Transformed human respiratory cell lines are widely used in the study of IAV−host interactions due to their relative convenience, and inher...

Influenza A Virus Acquires Enhanced Pathogenicity and Transmissibility after Serial Passages in Swine (2014)
Journal Article
Wei, K., Sun, H., Sun, Z., Sun, Y., Kong, W., Pu, J., …Liu, J. (2014). Influenza A Virus Acquires Enhanced Pathogenicity and Transmissibility after Serial Passages in Swine. Journal of Virology, 88(20), 11981-11994. https://doi.org/10.1128/jvi.01679-14

Genetic and phylogenetic analyses suggest that the pandemic H1N1/2009 virus was derived from well-established swine influenza lineages; however, there is no convincing evidence that the pandemic virus was generated from a direct precursor in pigs. Fu... Read More about Influenza A Virus Acquires Enhanced Pathogenicity and Transmissibility after Serial Passages in Swine.

Naturally Occurring Mutations in the PA Gene Are Key Contributors to Increased Virulence of Pandemic H1N1/09 Influenza Virus in Mice (2014)
Journal Article
Sun, Y., Xu, Q., Shen, Y., Liu, L., Wei, K., Sun, H., …Liu, J. (2014). Naturally Occurring Mutations in the PA Gene Are Key Contributors to Increased Virulence of Pandemic H1N1/09 Influenza Virus in Mice. Journal of Virology, 88(8), 4600-4604. https://doi.org/10.1128/jvi.03158-13

We examined the molecular basis of virulence of pandemic H1N1/09 influenza viruses by reverse genetics based on two H1N1/09 virus isolates (A/California/04/2009 [CA04] and A/swine/Shandong/731/2009 [SD731]) with contrasting pathogenicities in mice. W... Read More about Naturally Occurring Mutations in the PA Gene Are Key Contributors to Increased Virulence of Pandemic H1N1/09 Influenza Virus in Mice.
