The paper generates iPSC-derived macrophages from multiple Suidae species to model ASFV infection differences and identify species-specific immune responses.

The study shows cow mammary gland cells can support replication of multiple IAV strains and are susceptible to co-infection with human and avian IAVs, suggesting the udder may act as a site for viral reassortment.

This study generates p75NTR knockout rats to investigate its role in development and fertility, finding it largely dispensable for normal function.

This study shows that Aplnr signaling is essential for generating hematopoietic stem cell precursors during development but must be downregulated for their maintenance.
