The authors highlight the potential protective role of eqMx1, which primarily targets the virus nucleoprotein (NP), against the transmission of new IAVs in horses (i.e., eqMx1 could only inhibit the polymerase activity of IAVs of avian and human origin but remained inactive against the equine IAVs tested). To date, equine influenza virus remains one of the most important respiratory pathogens of horses worldwide, with a potential damaging impact on the equine industry, as clearly illustrated in 2007 in Australia and in 2019 in Europe [20, 21] . ./cache/cord-335279-cfv18qn0.txt ./txt/cord-335279-cfv18qn0.txt
