Host-specific effects of a pandemic H1N1 M gene on canine H3N2 influenza virus replication and immune responses
The emergence of novel influenza strains through reverse-zoonotic transmission poses potential risks to both animal and human health. This study characterized a naturally isolated reassortant canine H3N2 virus carrying the matrix (M) gene of 2009 pandemic H1N1 virus. In vitro experiments revealed that the M variant c...
