Sensitivity of various human lymphoblastoid cells to the antiviral and anticellular activity of human leukocyte interferon

  • Brief Report

Archives of Virology Aims and scope Submit manuscript

Summary

Of eight lymphoblastoid cell lines studied five were insensitive to both the anticellular and antiviral activities of human leukocyte interferon, and two were sensitive to both activities. One line could not be fully evaluated since it was not possible to study its sensitivity to the antiviral activity.
