Permissive infection of murine osteoblastic MC3T3-E1 cells by goatpox virus: establishing a novel cell model for mechanistic studies of host-pathogen interactions.

Goatpox is a highly contagious viral disease that poses a significant threat to the health of goats and other small ruminants. Here, we report for the first time that the murine osteoblastic cell line MC3T3-E1 supports productive GTPV infection, as d…
