Abstract excerpt
Latency, replication or transformation by adenoviruses require cooperation between their gene products and cellular factors, which are controlled by external stimuli. Clinical observations suggest that bacterial endotoxin (LPS) and steroid hormones have direct effects on the viral permissivity and activation. Therefore, HEp-2 cultures were infected with low multiplicity of wild type (WT) human adenovirus 5 (Ad-5)...
