This study identifies ACE2 as a proviral host factor and TMPRSS2 as a restrictive factor for IBV BD infection in chicken cells.

This study evaluates virus-like particles (VLPs) as efficient delivery vehicles for genome editing tools in pigs and chickens, achieving high editing rates in various cell types and systems.

This study uses scRNA-seq to analyze γδT cells in TCR KO chickens, identifying novel gene markers and functional characteristics of β and γδ T cell subsets.

The paper investigates molecular mechanisms of B cell migration to the bursa of Fabricius in chicken embryos, identifying roles for CCR7, CXCR4, and cell adhesion molecules.

This study shows that γδ T cells help protect chickens early against Salmonella infection, but their role is replaced by other cells later.

This study creates IFN receptor knockout chickens to investigate IFN dynamics in influenza infection, revealing strain-specific roles and highlighting type I IFN's importance in initial defense against H3N1.
