The rapid cross-species transmission of highly pathogenic avian influenza presents a significant zoonotic threat. Elucidating the avian interferon (IFN) system, the primary antiviral defense in chickens, is critical for controlling the virus at its source and preventing its spillover into humans and other species. We engineered type I (IFN-α/β) and type III (IFN-λ) IFN receptor knockout chickens to dissect the role of IFNs in viral infections. Results revealed that type I IFN predominantly modulates innate immune cell populations, T cell subsets, and their contribution to antibody production following immunization under physiological conditions. In ovo and in vivo challenge experiments utilizing diverse influenza A virus strains demonstrated strain-specific roles of both IFN-α/β and IFN-λ in orchestrating viral pathogenesis, immunological responses, and tissue-tropism effects. Notably, type I IFN was particularly crucial in the initial defense mechanisms against H3N1 avian influenza A virus infection. These novel models offer unprecedented insights into avian IFN biology within the context of avian influenza, which is essential for developing more effective strategies to prevent and control this public health challenge.

Non-profit plasmid repository dedicated to helping scientists around the world share high-quality plasmids. Facilitates archiving and distributing DNA-based research reagents and associated data to scientists worldwide. Repository contains over 65,000 plasmids, including special collections on CRISPR, fluorescent proteins, and ready-to-use viral preparations. There is no cost for scientists to deposit plasmids, which saves time and money associated with shipping plasmids themselves. All plasmids are fully sequenced for validation and sequencing data is openly available. We handle the appropriate Material Transfer Agreements (MTA) with institutions, facilitating open exchange and offering intellectual property and liability protection for depositing scientists. Furthermore, we curate free educational resources for the scientific community including a blog, eBooks, video protocols, and detailed molecular biology resources.
