Title: Use of recombinant interferon to prevent recurrent herpesvirus shedding. Author: Smolin G, Matli M, Okumoto M, Mayers M, Samy M. Journal: Curr Eye Res; 1984 Aug; 3(8):1069-74. PubMed ID: 6207989. Abstract: Iontophoresis with 6-hydroxydopamine was performed in rabbits previously infected with herpes simplex virus, McKrae strain. Viral shedding into the tear film was significantly decreased by the use of recombinant alpha interferon subtype D given as one drop qid. Interferon was noted in the tear film of rabbits 16-18 hours after the last placement of interferon drops into the inferior cul-de-sac.[Abstract] [Full Text] [Related] [New Search]
