system of double infection between vaccinia virus and mengovirus.when l cells are simultaneously infected with vaccinia virus and mengovirus, double interference in the replication of both viruses is observed. superinfection of vaccinia virus-infected cells by mengovirus during the first 5 hr of infection reduces vaccinia virus yields to between 1 and 3% of controls. the yields of mengovirus are reduced to between 1 and 16% of controls, depending upon the time of superinfection. the replication of vaccinia deoxyribonucleic acid is not inhibited by mengovirus; ...19714330362
effects of environmental factors on the development of insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus.the development of insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus is thought to be dependent on either the autoimmunity or the interaction of environmental agents with the pancreatic beta cells, or both in a genetically susceptible host. as environmental factors affecting the induction of type i diabetes, diabetogenic chemicals and viruses are likely candidates as primary injurious agents for pancreatic beta cells in man and animal. a number of structurally diverse chemicals including alloxan, streptozotoc ...19873315367
implications of the picornavirus capsid structure for polyprotein processing.mature picornaviral proteins are derived by progressive, posttranslational cleavage of a precursor polyprotein. these cleavages play a role in the control of virus functions. although the processed termini are separated by as much as 75 a in the native virus capsid, the fold and arrangement of polypeptide chains in a protomer before proteolysis are likely to be similar to that found in the mature virus. the three-dimensional structures of rhinovirus and mengo virus suggest that the cleavage site ...19873467351
repair replication of hela cell deoxyribonucleic acid in cells infected with newcastle disease virus or mengovirus or treated with puromycin.we examined repair replication of hela cell deoxyribonucleic acid (dna) in cells infected with mengovirus or newcastle disease virus or treated with puromycin. cellular dna was damaged by ultraviolet light and then pulse-labeled with (3)h-thymidine. autoradiographic analysis of non-s-phase dna synthesis (repair replication) showed that there was no inhibition of this process at a time when overall cellular dna synthesis was severely inhibited by either virus infection or puromycin treatment.19714331658

response of cultured mammalian cells to diphtheria toxin. v. concurrent resistance to ribonucleic acid viruses in diphtheria toxin-resistant kb cell strains.it was determined that kb-r cell strains, isolated from the kb cell line and resistant to diphtheria toxin, also resist infection by poliovirus, mengo virus, vesicular stomatitis virus, and newcastle disease virus. this resistance manifests itself by reduction in yields of progeny virus (a reduction of more than 2 logs in some cases), reduced production of viral-specific ribonucleic acid (rna), and delayed cytopathic effect. in three kb-r strains tested, resistance was related to a step which fa ...19724344025
mengovirus-induced cytopathic effect in l-cells: protective effect of interferon.the effect of interferon on mengovirus-induced cytopathic effect (cpe) in l cells, the cut-off of host-cell protein synthesis, and production of mature virus were found to be dependent on the concentration of interferon. cpe and inhibition of host protein synthesis were not affected until the concentration of interferon was increased 100-fold over that required to reduce viral yields by 90%.19694309883
host-dependent restriction of mengovirus replication.mengovirus infection of a restrictive cell line, maden's bovine kidney (mdbk), results in a virus yield 1,000-fold less than that obtained from productively infected cell lines such as l cells or ehrlich ascites tumor cells (eat). cells of both types of host systems are infected with comparable efficiencies and are completely killed as a consequence of infection. infective center assays, coupled with the observation of total cell killing, suggest that comparable numbers of cells synthesize viral ...19694311796

discrimination between messenger ribonucleic acids by a mammalian translation initiation factor.a factor from rabbit-reticulocyte ribosome, which stimulates by 5-fold initiation of hemoglobin mrna translation in krebs ascites cell extracts, was purified to homogeneity. the factor, a protein of about 65,000 molecular weight in sodium dodecyl sulfate, discriminates between various mrnas: it stimulates translation of alpha globin mrna and of tobacco mosaic virus rna, but has only a small effect on beta globin mrna and no effect at all on mengo virus rna translation.19734352974
inhibition of synchronized cellular deoxyribonucleic acid synthesis during newcastle disease virus, mengovirus, or reovirus infection.cultures of l cells were synchronized with respect to deoxyribonucleic acid (dna) synthesis with thymidine and 5-fluoro-2'-deoxyuridine (fudr) and infected with newcastle disease virus (ndv), mengovirus, or reovirus 3. inhibition of incorporation of (3)h-cytidine into the dna of synchronized cells is partially inhibited 2 hr after infection with ndv or mengovirus and nearly completely suppressed 4 hr after infection. with ndv and mengovirus, no evidence was obtained of differences in sensitivity ...19704317111
in vitro translation of oogenetic messenger rna of sea urchin eggs and picornavirus rna with a cell-free system from sarcoma 180.a cell-free protein-synthesizing system prepared from mouse sarcoma 180 was characterized by use of rna from mengo virus and sea urchin egg. in the presence of exogenous mammalian transfer rna, total sea urchin egg rna and mengo rna direct incorporation of [(3)h]leucine into acid-insoluble material. the system is extremely efficient in that a stimulation of 100-times over background can be obtained. studies with formylmethionyl-transfer rna, as well as with inhibitors of initiation, indicate tha ...19734357864

(the pennsylvania state university, university park), and e. h. ludwig. respiration of mengovirus-infected l-929 cells. j. bacteriol. 92:733-738. 1966.-polarographic techniques were employed to study the oxidative metabolism of l-929 cells during a one-step mengovirus growth cycle. virus maturation began 3.5 hr after infection and was complete with 7 hr. virus maturation was accompanied by a decreased rate of endogenous respiration and an increased rate of oxidation of succinate ...19664288496
statolon-induced resistance of mice to mengovirus.mice receiving statolon intraperitoneally were 1,000 times more resistant to intraperitoneal challenge with mengovirus than were untreated controls. protection was afforded when statolon was administered 1 day before or 1 day after intraperitoneal inoculation with the virus. no therapeutic effect was observed when treatment with statolon was delayed for 2 days or more after virus infection. exposure of mice to a simulated space cabin environment did not increase their susceptibility to the letha ...19674291957
double-stranded ribonucleic acid from mengo virus: production, characterization, and interferon-inducing and antiviral activities in comparison with polyriboinosinic-polyribocytidylic acid.mengo virus double-stranded ribonucleic acid (dsrna) was obtained on a semi-industrial scale from infected cultures of bhk-21 cells grown in suspension. yield of the extraction and purification operations was small (about 22 mg from 10(11) cells in a 100-liter culture). physicochemical characterization of this dsrna gave an estimated molecular weight close to 4 x 10(6), a density of 1.59 (similar to that of the poliovirus dsrna), and a thermal transition midpoint of 94 c. this product was a litt ...19734364180

duration of prophylactic effect of statolon against mengovirus in mice.intraperitoneal injection of statolon into mice is known to exert a protective effect against a subsequent infection with a variety of viruses owing to stimulation of production of interferon. to study the duration of such protection, groups of mice were treated with 350 mug of statolon at 69, 55, 41, 27, 13, 6, or 1 day prior to a challenge with mengovirus. other groups were treated with 760 mug at 1 to 6 days before challenge. ten days after inoculation with the virus, ld(50) determinations we ...19684297000
functional characterization of eukaryotic mrna cap binding protein complex: effects on translation of capped and naturally uncapped rnas.we examined the effects of a eukaryotic mrna cap binding protein (cbp) complex purified by cap analogue affinity chromatography [edery, i., humebelin, m., darveau, a., lee, k.a. w., milburn, s., hershey, j.w.b., trachsel, h., & sonenberg, n. (1983) j. biol. chem. 258, 11398 11403], on translation of several capped and naturally uncapped mrnas in extracts prepared from poliovirus-infected or mock-infected hela cells. the cbp complex has activity that restores capped mrna (globin, tobacco mosaic v ...19846089873
structure of the mengo virion. vii. crystallization and preliminary x-ray diffraction analysis.crystals of mengo virions have been grown reproducibly and analyzed by x-ray diffraction. these crystals diffract to a resolution of 7.0 a. the unit cell exhibits cubic symmetry with a = 422 a. the space group is p23, with four virus particles situated on crystallographic threefold axes. picornavirions from three of the four recognized genera (study group on picornaviridae, intervirology 10, 165-180, 1978) have now been examined at low resolution by x-ray diffraction: poliovirus type 1 (j. t. fi ...19846093358
potentiation of interferon's antiviral activity by the mutually synergistic interaction of muifn-alpha/beta and muifn-gamma.the interaction of the interferons (ifns) that cooperate to potentiate the antiviral action of ifn was studied. serial dilutions of muifn-gamma and muifn-alpha/beta were employed separately and in combination to block virus replication in one-step, virus yield reduction experiments. to calculate the potentiation of ifn activity, protection levels obtained for each combination of muifn-gamma and muifn-alpha/beta were compared with those obtained for the separate ifns. potentiation levels increase ...19846096507
picornaviruses of two different genera have similar structures.crystals of mengo virus were used to collect three-dimensional x-ray diffraction data to 7 a resolution. a self-rotation function showed the precise orientation of the mengo particles in the crystal unit cell. a cross-rotation function against similar data of cubic rhinovirus crystals showed a peak when the orientations of these two icosahedral viruses were superimposed. this demonstrates similarity of capsid construction between two picornaviruses of different taxonomic genera.19846098687
nucleotide pools in novikoff rat hepatoma cells growing in suspension culture. 3. effects of nucleosides in medium on levels of nucleotides in separate nucleotide pools for nuclear and cytoplasmic rna synthesis.this study was undertaken to measure the absolute levels of nucleoside pools in novikoff rat hepatoma cells (subline n1s1-67) during growth in suspension culture in the presence of high concentrations of various nucleosides in the medium, and to obtain further evidence for the compartmentalization of the nucleotides in independent cytoplasmic and nuclear pools. the levels of nucleotide pools were measured by growing the cells in medium supplemented with inorganic phosphate-(32)p. the nucleotide ...19724331295
antiviral activity of hetarylhydrazones.some hetarylhydrazones showed antiviral activity against mengo virus in vitro. the replication of influenza a and b viruses was affected neither in vitro (chick chorioallantoic membranes) nor in vivo (mice). based on dose response curves of the active hetarylhydrazones the compound z 98/69 appeared most effective in vitro. this compound neither inactivated the extracellular virus nor inhibited its adsorption and penetration; it reduced virus replication when added 1-3 hr after mengo virus inocul ...19826127013
effect of quercetin on the course of mengo virus infection in immunodeficient and normal mice. a histologic study.quercetin protects mice from lethal mengo m virus infection when given orally 12 and 1 hr before and 8, 24, 36, 48 and 56 hr after inoculation. no differences in the course of infection have been found between normal splenectomized or congenitally athymic mice. likewise the effect of drug treatment was similar in all three models. necrotic lesions in the main target organs (central nervous system, salivary and lacrimal glands, thymus, pancreas, kidneys and spleen) from both normal and immunodefi ...19826127014
interferon in experimental viral infections in mice: tissue interferon levels resulting from the virus infection and from exogenous interferon therapy.in mice given single intraperitoneal doses of interferon, serum interferon levels peaked at 1 h postinjection and were reduced to zero at about 8 h. the interferon concentrations in spleen, liver, and lungs were about 100-fold higher than could be expected from the amount of serum contained in these organs. in the brain only low levels of antiviral activity were detected. in mice infected intraperitoneally with mengo virus, viral replication in the brain occurred around day 4 and was accompanied ...19806160109

mechanism of action of antiviral hetarylhydrazones in vitro.three antiviral hetarylhydrazones showed a depression of 3h-uridine incorporation into rna of fl cells as a consequence of inhibition of uridine transport into the cells. by eliminating the action of the compounds on transport processes with the prelabelling method, only one compound showed a nearly 50% reduction of cellular rna synthesis during the whole incubation period, whereas the other two compounds had no influence during the first 6 hr. under prelabelling conditions all three compounds c ...19816166184
capsid polypeptides of mouse elberfeld virus. i. amino acid compositions and molar ratios in the virion.the four major polypeptide chains (alpha, beta, gamma, delta) constituting the capsid protein of mouse elberfeld (me) virus were isolated by preparative electrophoresis on polyacrylamide gels, and the amino acid composition of each chain was determined. in addition, the molecular weights of the smallest chains of me virus, mengovirus, and poliovirus, which had previously been determined by gel electrophoretic methods, were redetermined by gel filtration chromatography in 6 m guanidine hydrochlor ...19724342047
studies on an interferon-sensitive mutant of mengovirus: effects on host rna and protein syntheses.interferon induces an activity which strongly inhibits the growth of is-1, an interferon-response mutant of mengovirus. this activity is not expressed in protected cells infected with either is+ (the wild-type parent) or vaccinia virus, or in cells infected with is-1 in the presence of actinomycin d. a failure of is-1 to shut off host rna and/or protein synthesis could explain these observations. the present paper, however, shows that is-1 and is+ are equally effective in suppressing host synthe ...19816169788

effect of statolon-induced interferon on antibody formation.the effect of statolon-induced interferon on immune response was investigated. young adult swiss albino mice were immunized with chicken red blood cells or infectious mengovirus. the red blood cells were injected three times and the virus twice at 2-week intervals, with or without treatment with statolon 24 hr before the inoculations. the effect of interferon on antibody formation was measured by determinations of hemagglutinating, hemolytic, and virus-neutralizing antibodies in the sera of trea ...19684298812
destruction of l cells by mengo virus: use of interferon to study the mechanism.interferon, when added to l cells, inhibited the synthesis of infectious mengo viral ribonucleic acid, hemagglutinins, and infectious virus by 85 to 95%. serum-blocking antigens were also reduced by the action of interferon, but threefold excess amounts of these antigens accumulated in interferon-treated cultures above the amounts expected for the quantity of infectious virus that was produced in these cultures. radioautographic analysis showed that 28 to 36% of the cells of an interferon-treate ...19684301505
replication of mengovirus in hela cells preinfected with nonreplicating poliovirus.the replication of mengovirus in hela cells preinfected with poliovirus in the presence of 10(-3) m guanidine was investigated. although host cell protein synthesis is inhibited by the presence of nonreplicating poliovirus, it is found that mengovirus ribonucleic acid (rna) and protein synthesis proceed normally under the same conditions. furthermore, no effects on mengovirus growth by poliovirus can be detected either when mengo protein synthesis is interrupted by acti-dione or when its rna syn ...19684302186

the role of interferon induction in the interferon sensitivity of the mengovirus mutant, is-1.an interferon-sensitive mutant of mengovirus has been shown to specifically induce interferon in infected cells. although this appears to account for the sensitivity to interferon observed by others in an l(y) cell line, it cannot account for the even greater sensitivity observed in our g3 line of mouse l cells.19846198449
initiation of picornavirus protein synthesis in ascites cell extracts.the current model of picornavirus protein formation implies that initiation of protein synthesis occurs at a single site on the viral rna, and that the large polypeptide formed is later cleaved. a direct test of this model was made in vitro by studying the incorporation of [(35)s]methionine from rabbit liver met-trna(m) (met) and fmet-trna(f) (met) into encephalomyocarditis virus rna-coded proteins in extracts of ehrlich ascites cells. the incorporation of n-formylmethionine was complete within ...19724345505
transformation by murine sarcoma virus alters the sensitivity of clonal cells derived from nih/3t3 mouse fibroblasts to interferon.in contrast to normal clonal cells (a5) derived from nih/3t3 mouse fibroblasts, another clone (a10) derived from the same source was found to be resistant to the anti-lytic-virus activity of ifn and to be deficient in the induction of (2'-5') oligoadenylate synthetase (2-5a synthetase) by ifn. following infection of either a5 or a10 cells with moloney murine sarcoma virus (msv), a few transformed colonies were isolated, expanded, and tested for their sensitivity to ifn. it is clearly demonstrate ...19846206644

the influence of the host cell on the inhibition of virus protein synthesis in cells double infected with vesicular stomatitis virus and mengovirus.the ability of mengovirus to inhibit the synthesis of vesicular stomatitis virus (vsv) proteins and of vsv to inhibit the synthesis of mengovirus proteins during double infection in three different cell lines was investigated. although cellular protein synthesis was inhibited after infection of cells by each virus, the ability of one virus to decrease translation of the mrna species of the co-infecting virus varied with the cell type. superinfection of mengovirus-infected l-929 cells by vsv resu ...19806257824
replacement of mouse lm fibroblast choline by a sulfonium analog. effects on membrane properties as determined by virus probes.a sulfonium analog of choline ('sulfocholine', a natural phospholipid constituent of diatoms) was metabolically incorporated into mouse lm fibroblasts cultured in serum-free medium. subconfluent cultures of lm cells were able to utilize sulfocholine as sole choline source and to increase in cell number for 3 days of incubation; thereafter a decrease in cell number was observed. in contrast, cultures of lm cells seeded to confluency showed no decrease in cell number up to at least 10 days when ma ...19816260173
[on the biological action of transition metal complexes. 1. the antiviral activity of palladium aminopyridin-complexes (author's transl)].some aminopyridine complexes of palladium and pdcl2 showed an antiviral in vitro activity against enveloped dna and rna viruses such as vaccinia virus, pseudorabies virus, ndv and fpv. in contrast, naked rna virus as mengovirus was not affected. the compounds were compatible for chicken embryo as well as fl cells in concentrations of 100-250 microm. the therapeutical index calculated from the maximally tolerated dose and the concentration causing a 50 per cent plaque reduction was determined wit ...19816267845
correlation between the antiviral effect of interferon treatment and the inhibition of in vitro mrna translation in noninfected l cells.when noninfected l-cell suspension cultures are treated with interferon (specific activities superior to 10(6) reference units per mg of protein), the cell-free cytoplasmic extracts obtained are inactive for the translation of exogenous natural mrnas. the dose-response curve shows that comparable amounts of interferon are required to produce a 50% reduction of mengo virus multiplication in vivo and mengo rna translation in vitro. with higher doses of interferon, mengo rna translation is complete ...19734355848
alteration in trna methyltransferase activity in mengovirus infection: host range specificity.the trna methyltransferase activity in mengovirus-infected l cells, hela cells, and maden derby bovine kidney cells has been examined during the course of infection. the first two cell lines yield a productive infection, but have different kinetics of inhibition of host rna synthesis, whereas the bovine kidney cells are a restrictive host. in infected l cells the enzymes show altered capacity and base specificity throughout the infection. in infected hela cells and in infected bovine kidney cell ...19734358158

fate of mrna of l-cells infected with mengovirus.mengovirus infection of l-cells results in an inhibition of host protein synthesis which is detectable in vivo by a decreased rate of incorporation of radioactive amino acids into acid-insoluble material and by a concomitant reduction in polysome content. the inhibition of host protein synthesis occurs early in the infection cycle, at a time when there is little synthesis of viral proteins. in this paper the stability of polyadenylic acid [poly(a)]-containing mrna of uninfected l-cells and cells ...19744362513
multiple homologies of oligonucleotide size exist between nucleic acids of picornaviruses.a semi-quantitative analysis of hybrid formation between restriction enzyme-generated subgenomic fragments of cloned cdna prepared from rna of foot-and-mouth disease virus (fmdv) strain o1k and radiolabelled rna from bovine enterovirus, bovine rhinovirus or mengo virus indicated that the hybrids were of oligonucleotide size. they were located in those parts of the fmdv o1k genome that code for the two capsid proteins vp3 and vp1 and the precursor protein p52 as well as at the 3' end. no hybridiz ...19836306155

biological and macromolecular properties of murine cells persistently infected with mhv-jhm.a persistently-infected neuroblastoma culture [neuro-2a( jhmv )] was established with the murine hepatitis virus jhm [mhv-jhm]. after 100 days of passage, the endogenous virus [neuro-2a( jhmv ) end] released by this culture was unable to induce the syncytia typical of mhv-jhm and the endogenous virus was not temperature-sensitive. the neuro-2a( jhmv ) culture was cured of virus production by passage under neutralizing antibody [neuro-2a( jhmv )ab]. the neuro-2a( jhmv ) and the neuro-2a ( jhmv ) ...19846329142
isolation and characterization of an interferon-resistant cell line deficient in the induction of (2'-5')oligoadenylate synthetase activity.to screen for cells with different sensitivities to interferon (ifn), nih 3t3 mouse fibroblasts were subcloned and examined for their response to ifn treatment. of 30 clones tested, 2 appeared to be relatively resistant to ifn, since the replication of both vesicular stomatitis virus and mengovirus was not inhibited, even in the presence of 1,000 u of ifn per ml. one resistant (a10) and one sensitive (a5) clone were further analyzed. in both clones, murine leukemia virus replication was equally ...19836646121

effect of canavanine on murine retrovirus polypeptide formation.canavanine is an arginine analog which is widely used to inhibit proteolytic processing of viral polyproteins. certain results obtained with canavanine have suggested that it may have other effects. therefore, we examined the effects of canavanine on the cell-free synthesis of murine retrovirus proteins. it was found that the electrophoretic mobility of the major gag-related cell-free product of both rauscher murine leukemia virus (r-mulv) and moloney murine sarcoma virus 124 (mo-musv-124) rna w ...19807365878

identification of mengo virus t helper cell epitopes.to identify mengo virus-specific t cell epitopes in mice (the natural host for the virus), lymph node cells were obtained from balb/c (h-2d) mice, previously immunized with u.v.-inactivated virus, and stimulated in vitro with each of 116 overlapping peptides (10 to 18 residues long) covering the entire capsid coding region (834 amino acids). t cell epitopes were defined on the basis of specific peptide-induced lymphocyte proliferation. where proliferation occurred, immunological characterization ...19947525861
iron-binding catechols and virulence in escherichia coli.a comparison of viral-induced unresponsiveness of phytohemagglutinin (pha)-induced deoxyribonucleic acid (dna) synthesis of mouse lymphocytes was made by culturing the cells under identical conditions in the presence of hepes buffer in a humid-air atmosphere. the degree of pha-induced dna synthesis was found to vary, depending upon the type of ribonucleic acid or dna virus treatment. myxovirus, paramyxoviruses, mengo virus, leukemic viruses, herpesvirus, and vaccinia virus caused a depression in ...19734576680

transport as the rate-limiting step in the incorporation of uridine into mengovirus ribonucleic acid in novikoff rat hepatoma cells.the incorporation of uridine into the nucleotide pool of actinomycin-treated, mengovirus-infected novikoff rat hepatoma cells in culture follows simple michaelis-menten kinetics, and the apparent v(max) and k(m) values are similar to those for uridine transport by uninfected cells. incorporation of uridine into mengovirus-specific ribonucleic acid (rna) also follows michaelis-menten kinetics, and the apparent k(m) (about 10 mum) is approximately the same as for uridine transport. inhibition of u ...19715543426
does physiological interferon play a role in mengo virus infection of mice?nzb, balb/c and c3h mice, differing in their production of physiological interferon (ifn), were used as models to investigate its role in their resistance to mengo virus infection. these mouse strains also differ in their susceptibility to the infection. nzb and balb/c mice, producing higher titers of physiological ifn than c3h mice, proved to be less resistant to the infection than the latter mouse strain. this suggests that physiological ifn does not play protective role against mengo virus in ...19937692712
effects of elevated temperatures on mengovirus ribonucleic acid synthesis and virus production in novikoff rat hepatoma cells.the production of mengovirus in novikoff rat hepatoma cells is progressively reduced with an increase in incubation temperature of the cells from 34 to 40 c, in spite of the fact that about the same amounts of single-stranded and double-stranded viral ribonucleic acid (rna) are synthesized at 34, 37, and 40 c; the rate of overall protein synthesis is as high at 40 c as at 37 c. at 40 c, progeny viral rna accumulates in an undegraded form without being incorporated into virus particles. the resul ...19715543427
foot-and-mouth disease virus lb proteinase can stimulate rhinovirus and enterovirus ires-driven translation and cleave several proteins of cellular and viral origin.rhinovirus and enterovirus 2a proteinases stimulate translation initiation driven from the cognate internal ribosome entry segment (ires) (s. j. hambidge and p. sarnow, proc. natl. acad. sci. usa 89:10272-10276, 1992; h.-d. liebig, e. ziegler, r. yan, k. hartmuth, h. klump, h. kowalski, d. blaas, w. sommergruber, l. frasel, b. lamphear, r. rhoads, e. kuechler, and t. skern, biochemistry 32:7581-7588, 1993). given the functional similarities between the foot-and-mouth disease virus (fmdv) l prote ...19957745693
ribosomes: effect of interferon on their interaction with rapidly labeled cellular and viral rna's.rapidly labeled rna of mouse l cells and labeled rna of mengo virus, unlike cellular rna labeled under steady-state conditions, form detectable complexes with l-cell ribosomes. these ribosome-rna complexes formed in vitro appear analogous to those assembled during polysome formation in vivo. when ribosomes are prepared from l cells exposed to homologous interferon, their capacity to associate with cell messenger is preserved, while their ability to interact with viral rna is markedly reduced. th ...19676018644
effect of n, n'-bis(methylisatin-beta-thiosemicarbazone)-2-methylpiperazine against virus-induced encephalitis in mice).n,n'-bis(methylisatin-beta-thiosemicarbazone)-2-methylpiperazine (tski-vi) proved to be significantly effective against lethal vaccinia, pseudorabies and mengo virus-induced encephalitis in different strains of mice when administered subcutaneously (s.c.) in doses of 20 mg/kg body weight, twice daily, for a period of five days. the strongest effects occurred in vaccinia virus-infected mice, and the degree of protection was both dose- and virus-dependent. titres of vaccinia virus in brains of inf ...19806111204

attachment of avidin-coupled spheres to linear and circular forms of mengovirus double-stranded rna.picornavirus-infected cells contain a double-stranded rna (replicative form [rf] rna), composed of viral genomic rna hydrogen bonded to crna of similar nucleotide length. mengovirus rf rna reacted with a succinimide ester of biotin was shown by electron microscopy to bind avidin-coupled polymethacrylate spheres. these binding sites are taken to indicate the presence of vpg protein molecular by methods previously applied to poliovirus rf rna (richards et al., proc. natl. acad. sci. u.s.a. 76:676- ...19816168770
effect of interferon on transient shut-off of cellular rna and protein synthesis induced by mengo virus infection.infection of mouse l929 cells with mengo virus resulted in a rapid shut-off of cellular rna synthesis followed within the first hours post infection by a gradual decrease in host protein synthesis. pretreatment of the cells with high doses of interferon, blocking viral multiplication, did not affect the virus-induced shut-off of host macromolecular synthesis. in these interferon-treated cells the 2',5'a-activated nuclease may account for the degradation of viral rna, soon after its replication. ...19816175273
mechanism of mengo virus-induced cell injury in l cells: use of inhibitors of protein synthesis to dissociate virus-specific events.l cells were infected with mengo virus in the presence of varying concentrations of protein synthesis inhibitors (azetidine-2-carboxylic acid, p-fluorophenylalanine, puromycin), and examined with respect to the effects of the inhibitors on several features of virus-induced cell injury. the virus-specific events in the cells could be dissociated into three groups, based on their sensitivity to the inhibitors: (i) viral ribonucleic acid (rna) synthesis, bulk viral protein synthesis, and infectious ...19724344257
mechanism of antiviral action of quercetin against cardiovirus infection in mice.oral treatment with quercetin protected abd2f1/jena mice significantly against intraperitoneal encephalomyocarditis, col, sk, mm, mengo m,l and mengom virus infections, but not against intracerebral challenge with mengom virus. enhanced resistance to mengom virus were induced in the genetically different dba 2/jena, c57bl/jena, c57bl/lati and abc2f1/jena mice, c57bl6/jena nu/nu mice were also protected, indicating that the thymus was non-essential to the protective effects of quercetin. in ab/je ...19816176184
