Imaging analysis reveals budding of filamentous human metapneumovirus virions and direct transfer of inclusion bodies through intercellular extensions

ABSTRACT Human metapneumovirus (HMPV) can spread between cells through budding of virus particles or direct cell-to-cell spread. A network of budding filaments and intercellular extensions forms in HMPV-infected cells; however, the involvement of these structures in direct cell-to-cell spread of inf...
