title: Anti-gD monoclonal antibodies inhibit cell fusion induced by herpes simplex virus type 1.
abstract: Monoclonal antibodies directed against glycoprotein D of herpes simplex virus completely inhibited fusion of Vero cells infected with type 1 virus. In contrast, several monoclonal antibodies directed against other viral glycoproteins, including B, were ineffective or were only minimally inhibitory at the highest concentrations tested.
