title: Lipids and cell fusion in vitro: effect of amphotericin B.
abstract: Fusion rate of Cl-1D cells mediated by Sendai virus was decreased by preincubating the cells or the virus in the presence of lysolecithin. However, a significant increase occurred when the cells were preincubated in the presence of amphotericin B. This increase was suppressed by exogenous cholesterol.
