mortality/aging
• mice infected with vesicular stomatitis virus (VSV)
|
immune system
• peritoneal macrophages express lower levels of IFN-beta and produce lower levels of IL-6, TNF, IL-8, and COX-2 upon VSV infection
• however, macrophage differentiation and cell viability are unaffected in mice under basal conditions
|
• mice are more susceptible to VSV infection, showing a lower level of IFN-beta in serum and organs, increased VSV replication and titers in organs, more obvious infiltration of inflammatory cells and more severe tissue damage in lungs, and shorter survival and higher mortality
