Interferons inhibit syncytia-forming ability and in vitro transmission of human T-cell leukemia virus

|April 1, 1985
Abstract:
Interferon(IFN)-alpha and -beta strongly inhibited syncytia formation of human T-cell leukemia virus (HTLV). They also inhibited transmission of HTLV to normal human fibroblasts. These phenomena suggest a physiological role of IFNs in defense against HTLV infection.
