The human airway serves as the entry point of human respiratory viruses, including human coronaviruses. In this chapter we outline the methods by which we establish fully differentiated airway epithelium and its use for human coronavirus propagation. Additionally, we outline methods for immunofluorescence staining of these cultures for virus detection, characterization of cell tropism, and how to perform antiviral assays and quantify viral replication.
人类气道是包括人类冠状病毒在内的人类呼吸道病毒的进入点。在本章中,我们概述了建立完全分化的气道上皮的方法及其在人类冠状病毒繁殖中的应用。此外,我们还概述了对这些培养物进行免疫荧光染色以检测病毒、表征细胞嗜性的方法,以及如何进行抗病毒测定和量化病毒复制。
