#Tropism and #Replication Competence of #Cattle #Influenza #H5N1 Genotype B3.13 Virus in #Human Bronchus and #Lung Tissue

 


Abstract

In 2024, influenza A(H5N1) genotype B3.13 viruses emerged from cattle and caused mild spillover infections in humans. Using human bronchus and lung tissue, we evaluated tropism, replication, and pathogenesis of 2 cattle influenza isolates. Those viruses showed moderate replication competence and induced robust proinflammatory responses, suggesting potential risk for human health.
