Tissue tropism information


Tissue tropism is the range of cells and tissues of a host that support growth of a particular pathogen, such as a virus, bacterium or parasite.[1][2]

Some bacteria and viruses have a broad tissue tropism and can infect many types of cells and tissues.[1] Other viruses may infect primarily a single tissue.[1] For example, rabies virus affects primarily neuronal tissue.
