Originally isolated from swine, the proposed influenza D virus has since been shown to be common in cattle. Inoculation of IDV to naïve calves resulted in mild respiratory disease histologically characterized by tracheitis. As several studies have associated the presence of IDV with acute bovine respiratory disease (BRD), we sought to investigate the efficacy of an inactivated IDV vaccine. Vaccina...
Lymphopenic conditions lead to expansion of memory-like T cells (T), which develop from naïve T cells by spontaneous proliferation. T cells are often increased in the elderly population, AIDS patients, and patients recovering from radio- or chemotherapy. At present, it is unclear whether T cells can efficiently respond to foreign antigen and participate in antiviral immunity. To address this quest...
