Abstract
Clarithromycin (CM) has been found to inhibit the production of the intercellular adhesion molecule (ICAM)-1 and the secretion of interleukin (IL)-6 and IL-8, which may have beneficial effects on the pathophysiological changes related to rhinovirus (RV) infection. The effect of CM on RV infection in A549 cells was therefore investigated.Keywords
