This project investigates the factors that prevent the hepatitis C virus from infecting mouse liver cells. By understanding these barriers, the research aims to develop small animal models for studying the virus and its transmission, ultimately aiding in the prevention of zoonotic diseases.
RNA viruses are responsible for important acute, chronic as well as emerging human infections.
While some of these viruses – like for instance the hepatitis C virus (HCV) – are highly species-specific, others (e.g.
Dengue Virus) infect different host species.
These latter viruses cause zoonotic infections, i.e. infections of animal hosts that are transmitted to humans by unintentional contact.
Why some RNA viruses are highly species-specific, whereas others have a broad species-tropism is poorly…
