Nora virus

1. Nora virus impairs intestinal barrier function in flies.

   “the virus is then detected in enterocytes, which correlates with a disruption of the intestinal barrier function in aged flies.”

   Nora virus proliferates in dividing intestinal stem cells and thereby sensitizes Drosophila flies to Pseudomonas aeruginosa intestinal infection and to oxidative stress

1. Nora virus increases sensitivity to Pseudomonas aeruginosa infection and oxidative stress in flies.

   “the presence of Nora virus in the gut epithelium promotes the sensitivity to this bacterial pathogen as well as to an ingested oxidizing xenobiotic.”
