title: Effect of recombinant DNA-derived bovine and human interferons on replication of bovine herpesvirus-1, parainfluenza-3, and respiratory syncytial viruses.
abstract: Antiviral effects of recombinant DNA-derived bovine (Bo) and human (Hu) interferons (IFN) on the replication of bovine herpesvirus-1, parainfluenza-3, and respiratory syncytial viruses were studied. Bovine monolayer cultures were treated with recombinant DNA-produced Bo IFN-alpha 1, Bo IFN-beta 2, Hu IFN-alpha A, or Hu IFN-alpha A/D and then challenge exposed with bovine herpesvirus-1, bovine parainfluenza-3 virus, bovine respiratory syncytial virus, or vesicular stomatitis virus. Treatment with each IFN reduced the viral yield for each of these viruses, compared with that of control cultures.
