Moreover, other studies have shown that the infection of bunyavirus RVFV can cause significant upregulation of SLC24A2 and SLCA3, suggesting that bunyavirus infection affect alterations in host ion channels, while details about SFTSV infection need to be further investigated (Pinkham et al., 2017; Yan et al., 2021). The gene discussed is SLC24A2; the disease is infection.
