Abstract
Evaluation of candidate antiviral drugs against Epstein-Barr virus (EBV), human herpesvirus 6 (HHV-6), and HHV-8 is hampered by the lack of convenient laboratory assays. We developed real-time quantitative PCR assays performed on supernatants of lymphoma cell lines and determined the 50% inhibitory concentrations (IC50s) of nucleoside, nucleotide, and pyrophosphate analogues against these herpesviruses.Entities:
