Abstract
HSB-2 cell cultures productively infected with human herpesvirus-6 were treated with the antiviral drugs phosphonoformic acid (PFA), acyclovir (ACV), and gancyclovir (DHPG). ACV and DHPG showed significant toxic effects on uninfected HSB-2 cells, yet only incompletely inhibited viral expression upon infection of the cells. PFA, however, showed little direct toxicity on HSB-2 cells while viral replication was inhibited significantly.Entities:
