  • Title: Dimethyl sulfoxide inhibits human immunodeficiency virus production in vitro.
    Author: Viza D, Aranda-Anzaldo A, Zompetti C, Vich JM.
    Journal: Intervirology; 1991; 32(1):59-64. PubMed ID: 1707866.
    Abstract:
    LDV/7, H9, and MOLT-4, three cell lines infectible by human immunodeficiency virus were incubated with dimethyl sulfoxide, an inducer of cell differentiation. It was shown that this is a powerful inhibitor of viral production, but its effect is transient: viral production resumes when the compound is removed from the culture medium. It does not inactivate the virus, and it fails to prevent viral infection or to inhibit expression of p24 on the surface of the infected cells.
