Cell fusion by canine distemper virus-infected cells.

AV3 cells (continuous human amnion) infected with the Onderstepoort strain of canine distemper virus produced cell fusion within 2 to 5 hr when added to AV3 cell monolayers. An apparent requirement for intact, infected cells was demonstrated by showing that (i) frozen-and-thawed infected cells failed to induce fusion, (ii) infected cells frozen in the presence of glycerol retained their ability...

Virology / Virologie Establishment and maintenance of Soybean Mosaic Virus in soybean callus culture

Susceptibility to inoculation with Soybean mosaic virus (SMV) and virus activity were investigated in soybean callus cultures growing in vitro. Excised hypocotyls of susceptible soybean, Glycine max (L.) Merr. ‘Essex’, were cultured in Msoy medium in the light at 25 °C. Established calluses were inoculated with SMV in vitro by a soak–prick method. In addition, SMV-infected leaves of soybean ‘Le...

A novel medium-throughput biological assay system for HTLV-1 infectivity and drug discovery

Objective(s): Here, a reporter cell line containing two reporter vectors were developed, in order to monitor the Human T-Lymphotropic Virus type1(HTLV-1) infectivity and the cell viability simultaneously. Materials and Methods: The reporter cell line was constructed by stably transfected baby hamster's kidney cell line (BHK-21), with the genomes expressing two different reporters in separate pl...

Chondrocyte viability in fresh and frozen large human osteochondral allografts: effect of cryoprotective agents.

Chondrocyte survival is a major goal for the effective storage and clinical performance of human osteochondral allografts. The majority of animal and human cryopreservation studies conducted so far have been performed in small osteochondral cylinders. Using human tibial plateaus as a model for large osteochondral pieces, this work sought to evaluate the cryoprotective efficiency of glycerol and...

The Tween 80 Toxicity in Chicken Embryos and Effect on the Kinetics of Newcastle Disease Virus Replication

Background: Non-ionic surfactant, Tween-80 (TW80) is commonly used for drug delivery due to its effect on the cell membrane permeation. The change in permeability can also increase viral infectivity in cells. This study was undertaken to improve upon Newcastle disease virus (NDV) titer cultivated with embryonic chicken eggs. Methods: The toxicity of TW80 was investigated against chicken embryo...
