Rotavirus and poliovirus co-infection in HT-29 cells.
The effect of a mixed poliovirus-rotavirus infection in HT-29 cells, a gut tumour derived cell line highly susceptible to both viruses, has been analyzed. The obtained results showed an increase of poliovirus multiplication in cells super-infected or co-infected with rotavirus, whereas the pre-infection with poliovirus had an interfering effect on rotavirus replication.
