Effect of acyclovir and presence of cellular and viral thymidine kinase activity in herpes simplex virus infected cells. Brief report

Comparative Study

Effect of acyclovir and presence of cellular and viral thymidine kinase activity in herpes simplex virus infected cells. Brief report

J Harmenberg et al. Arch Virol. 1982.

Abstract

Herpes simplex type 1 (HSV-1) infected human lung fibroblasts show a higher viral thymidine kinase activity than infected African green monkey kidney cells. This may partly account for the higher antiviral activity of acyclovir in the former cells.
