Establishment of porcine enterocyte/myofibroblast co-cultures for the growth of porcine rota- and coronaviruses

Abstract A stable culture of primary porcine enterocytes is necessary to study porcine enteric virus replication characteristics. Because the direct cultivation of primary porcine enterocytes is difficult, alternatives have to be considered. As subepithelial myofibroblasts secrete extracellular matr...
