H2 influenza A virus is not pathogenic in Tmprss2 knock-out mice

The host cell protease TMPRSS2 cleaves the influenza A virus (IAV) hemagglutinin (HA). Several reports have described resistance of Tmprss2(−/−) knock-out (KO) mice to IAV infection but IAV of the H2 subtype have not been examined yet.
