Late phase inhibition of murine cytomegalovirus replication by synergistic action of interferon-gamma and tumour necrosis factor
1 Jan 1994
Abstract excerpt
We have shown previously that the antiviral function of CD4+ T lymphocytes against murine cytomegalovirus (MCMV) is associated with the release of interferon-gamma (IFN-gamma). We now demonstrate that IFN-gamma and tumour necrosis factor alpha (TNF-alpha) display synergism in their antiviral activity. As little as 2 ng/ml of IFN-gamma and TNF-alpha reduced the virus yield by about three orders of magnitude. There...
