title: Inhibition of rabies virus infection by a soluble membrane fraction from the rat central nervous system.
abstract: This paper describes the inhibitory effect of a normal rat brain solubilized membrane preparation (RBSM-liposomes) on rabies virus infection. Rabies virus was incubated with RBSM-liposomes or their separated components (proteins, phospholipids, gangliosides) before infection of CER or neuroblastoma cells. In addition, both RBSM-liposomes and target cells were treated with enzymes prior to the infection step. All these experimental procedures showed that the active components were mainly lipids.
