Characterization of Culex pipiens cell lines: virus infection and RNAi response
The current study demonstrates that the CPE/LULS50 and CPL/LULS56 cell lines are suitable candidates to facilitate research into Culex-specific virus-vector interactions, ultimately contributing to mitigation of the impact of Culex-borne arboviruses on public health.
