Treatment of a murine cytomegalovirus infection with exogenous interferon, polyinosinic-polycytidylic acid, and polyinosinic-polycytidylic acid-poly-L-lysine complex.
Treatment of a cytomegalovirus infection of mice with exogenous murine interferon did not alter final mortality or mean day of death. Pretreatment with two interferon inducers significantly reduced mortality, but treatment initiated after infection was not effective.
