Virus-Infected Cell

Molecular classification
Cell, Host Cell
01

Overview

A virus-infected cell is a host cell that has been invaded by a virus, resulting in the hijacking of the cell’s machinery to produce new viral particles. These cells display altered morphology, express viral antigens, and are targeted by the immune system and antiviral therapies. The outcome of infection can range from lytic cell death to persistent or latent infection.
