Influenza A virus (IAV) infection causes acute and long-term lung damage. Here, we used immunostaining, genetic, and pharmacological approaches to determine whether IAV-induced cellular senescence causes prolonged alterations in lungs. Mice infected with a sublethal dose of H1N1p2009 exhibited cellular senescence, as evidenced by increased pulmonary expression of p16, p21,
