IFITM3 restricts the morbidity and mortality associated with influenza	2012-03-25		.txt	text/plain	4570	278	52	We find that a statistically significant number of hospitalized subjects show enrichment for a minor IFITM3 allele (SNP rs12252-C) that alters a splice acceptor site, and functional assays show the minor CC genotype IFITM3 has reduced influenza virus restriction in vitro. We find that a statistically significant number of hospitalised subjects show enrichment for a minor IFITM3 allele (SNP rs12252-C) that alters a splice acceptor site, and functional assays show the minor CC genotype IFITM3 has reduced influenza virus restriction in vitro. Given the higher viral load in Ifitm3 −/− mice and increased replication of influenza A virus in Ifitm3 deleted cells in vitro (Fig. 1d) , we examined both viral nucleic acid and protein distribution in the lung. Analysis of cell populations resident in the lung tissue on day 6 post-infection showed that Ifitm3 −/− mice displayed significantly reduced proportions of CD4+ (p=0.004) and CD8+ Tcells (p=0.02) and natural killer (NK) cells (p=0.0001) but an elevated proportion of neutrophils (p=0.007) (Fig. 3a) .	./cache/cord-345848-s84lxe6l.txt	./txt/cord-345848-s84lxe6l.txt
