Immunosuppression in Experimental Junin Virus Infection of Mice

open access: yesIntervirology, 1980
The effects of cyclophosphamide (CY), anti-mouse thymocyte sera, oxisuran, and cytosine arabinoside were evaluated in adult and newborn mice infected with Junin virus. Treatment with CY was the most effective, Adult mice, which are not normally susceptible to intracerebral infection with 10(3) LD50 of Junin virus, were rendered susceptible by treatment
