Abstract

There is lack of direct evidence whether the myocarditis can be induced by CVB3o. The two coxsackievirus B3 variants were used to infected murine myocardial cells. The results showed that: (1) In culture medium of murine myocardial cells infected with two variants, it did not show much differences in titers at 12 and 24 hours between CVB3o and CVB3m. (2) The two variants could all induce the death of myocardium, but with the elapse of time, the cell death rate of CVB3m infected cells was much higher than CVB3o. (3) CVB3o could not block the myocardial cells from infection by CVB3m. It is concluded that myocardial cells can be infected by CVB3o, but the degree of infection is lower than CVB3m.
