widespread occurrence of h9n2 low pathogenic avian influenza (lpai) viruses in many asian countriesduring the past decade has resulted in the need for evaluation of the pathogenesis of h9n2 virus infection. in this study, tissue tropism and dissemination of a/chicken/iran/772/1998(h9n2) virus throughout the body of broiler chickens were investigated. the clinical signs, gross lesions and antibo...

avian infectious bronchitis (ib) is a major cause of economic losses in poultry industry. the ib virus primarily affects respiratory tract, but various strains differ in their tropism for other target organs such as kidney and alimentary tract. the objective of this study was to estimate the pathogenicity of iranian ibv variant (ir-1), which is limited exclusively to iran. specific pathogen fre...

Lepidopteran nucleopolyhedroviruses (NPVs) show distinct tissue tropism in host insect larvae. However, the molecular mechanism of this tropism is largely unknown. We quantitatively investigated NPV tissue tropism by measuring mRNA levels of viral genes in 16 tissues from Bombyx mori NPV (BmNPV)-infected B. mori larvae and found clear tissue tropism, i.e., BmNPV replicates poorly in the silk gl...

Human intestinal in vitro organ culture was used to assess the tissue tropism of human isolates of Escherichia coli O103:H2 and O103:H- that express intimin epsilon. Both strains showed tropism for follicle associated epithelium and limited adhesion to other regions of the small and large intestine. This is similar to the tissue tropism shown by intimin gamma enterohaemorrhagic (EHEC) O157:H7, ...

Acute kidney injury (AKI) is a common complication, affecting up to 37% of hospitalized patients with SARS-CoV-2 infection and proportional its severity portends poor prognosis. Diverse mechanisms have been proposed studies reported conflicting results. Moreover, renal tropism does not equate pathogenicity. For virus be pathogenic, in addition affinity (tropism) for specific tissue(s), host cel...

Avian infectious bronchitis (IB) is a major cause of economic losses in poultry industry. The IB virus primarily affects respiratory tract, but various strains differ in their tropism for other target organs such as kidney and alimentary tract. The objective of this study was to estimate the pathogenicity of Iranian IBV variant (IR-1), which is limited exclusively to Iran. Specific pathogen fre...

The types of cells and tissues infected by a virus define its tissue tropism. Determinants of tissue tropism in animal-infecting viruses have been extensively investigated, but little is known about plant viruses in this regard. Some geminiviruses in the genus Begomovirus exhibit phloem limitation and are restricted to cells of the vascular system, whereas others can invade mesophyll tissue. To...

The experimental study of the pharmacokinetic characteristics a new pyrrole derivative carnosine, pyrrolylcarnosine, was carried out. Based on results experiment, basic parameters drug are expected. tissues and organs bioavailability studied. tropism pyrrolylcarnosine to elimination ability penetrate into heart muscle tissue were shown.
