Cell death modulation dictates tissue-specific tropism of lumpy skin disease virus

Genome-wide transcriptional analysis of Madin-Darby bovine kidney (MDBK) cells infected with lumpy skin disease virus (LSDV) at 1, 8, 16, and 24 hours post-infection, with PBS-treated cells serving as mock controls. This dataset enables comparative profiling of host transcriptomic responses during early and intermediate stages of LSDV replication, providing insights into virus-host interactions and cellular defense mechanisms.
