Replication of HHV-6 in cord blood lymphocytes and Jurkat cells

G Batteriol Virol Immunol. 1991 Jan-Dec;84(1-12):11-4.

Abstract

Replication of HHV-6 in cord blood lymphocytes (CBL) and Jurkat cells has been studied by comparing their infection rate and susceptibility. Jurkat cells were less susceptible to HHV-6 infection and CBL cell cultures stimulated with PHA proved more sensitive culture for its isolation.
