[The interferon-inducing activity of the Lassa virus in the body of inbred mice].
The level and the time course of accumulation of endogenous interferon were studied in the blood sera of mice experimentally infected with Lassa virus by the intracerebral route. The level of interferon correlated with case-fatality rate of the animals which may be important for the understanding of the pathogenesis of arenavirus infections.
