Early apoptosis of porcine alveolar macrophages limits avian influenza virus replication and proinflammatory dysregulation

Pigs are evidently more resistant to avian than swine influenza A viruses, mediated in part through frontline epithelial cells and alveolar macrophages (AM). Although porcine AM (PAM) are crucial in influenza virus control, their mode of control is unclear. To gain insight into the possible role of...
