Abstract
A study has been initiated to determine the influence of prostaglandins on virus replication and its relationship to the interferon system. Pretreatment of human cervical carcinoma HeLa cells in culture with prostaglandin E1 results in a reduction in the yields of Mengo, MM and polioviruses; enhanced yields of interferon; and inhibition of cell division.This publication has 0 references indexed in Scilit:
