Abstract

The interaction between influenza virus and dendritic cells (DCs) remains poorly defined and controversial. Herein, we show that influenza virus replication in murine bone marrow-derived DCs (BmDCs) is abortive, despite viral genome transcription and replication occurring for each gene segment and viral hemagglutinin and nucleoprotein at least, being produced. Electron microscopy reveals that assembly, rather than release of virus from the cell surface, is defective.
