Challenges age-related susceptibility assumptions in viral models; leaves open non-immune mechanisms for targeted investigation.
Intracerebral inoculation of Lansing type 2 poliovirus in mice produces a disease resembling human poliomyelitis, with adult mice showing higher susceptibility than newborns, which is not explained by immune maturation.
Jubelt et al. (1980) studied this question.
