Background: The arenavirus Junin virus (JUNV), causative agent of the argentine hemorrhagic fever, is able to modulate several signaling pathways involved in cell survival and multiplication.

Objectives: We aimed to characterize the infection of rat osteoblasts (OBCs) with JUNV and its consequence on the modulation of osteogenic genes expression, thus studying the ability of this virus to induce cell differentiation. In addition, we evaluated the effect of purinergic agonists on viral replication.
