Abstract excerpt
Serial passages of a virulent mouse rotavirus in cell cultures caused a loss of virulence in mice. To gain insight into the genomic mutations in human rotavirus during cell culture and its attenuation in humans, we serially passaged three wild type human G1P[8] rotavirus strains (Wa, DC3695, DC5685) derived from diarrheal stool samples up to 60 times in two different cell cultures (human colon adenocarcinoma cell...
