The Antiviral RNA Interference Response Provides Resistance to Lethal Arbovirus Infection and Vertical Transmission in Caenorhabditis elegans
Gammon, Ishidate, et al. report that vesicular stomatitis virus produces a lethal infection in C. elegans. The nematode RNA interference pathway restricts infection to muscle tissue, inhibits vertical transmission, and promotes transgenerational inheritance of antiviral immunity. This study establishes a promising system for exploring virus-host interplay.See it on Scoop.it, via Viruses and Bioinformatics from Virology.uvic.ca
