This study shows that pigs lacking NKT cells have altered immune responses to influenza, with increased T cell expansion and B cell clone numbers after infection.

This study investigates the pathogenicity and transmissibility of a bovine-derived HPAI H5N1 B3.13 virus in pigs, finding susceptibility but limited replication and no transmission.

The paper reports a WEEV outbreak in Argentina in 2023-2024, describing virological, serological, and pathological features in horses and identifying a new viral lineage.

This study investigates H5N1 clade 2.3.4.4b virus infection in calves and lactating cows, finding that mammary gland infection causes severe mastitis and reduced milk production, with transmission likely via milk rather than respiratory routes.
