#Glial cells promote #infection by #neurotropic #Influenza A viruses in vitro

Abstract Although influenza A viruses (IAV) are notorious respiratory pathogens, some IAV strains can reach and replicate in the central nervous system (CNS) in vivo. In particular, highly pathogenic avian influenza viruses (HPAIV) pose a threat for future pandemics and are linked to greater neurotropic potential . Moreover, neurotropic IAV strains have shown a more significant impact on the onset and pathogenesis of neurodegenerative diseases (NDD). However, despite its clinical relevance , the dynamics and cellular tropism of IAV infection in the CNS are not well understood. In this study, we analyzed the replication of HPAIV H7N7 in vitro using a primary murine triple co-culture system comprising neurons, astrocytes, and microglia . We found that microglia become highly infected early on and induce a strong pro-inflammatory response before undergoing apoptosis . Using fluorescence microscopy with automated single-cell profiling, we found that, in contrast to non-neurotropic H3N2, th...
