resistance to viral infection and cytokine production was studied. METHODS: The degree of
natural resistance of human peripheral blood leukocytes (PBLs) was determined by studying
the kinetics of vesicular stomatitis virus (VSV) replication. A titer of 0–1 log TCID50 indicated
complete resistance, 2–3 log partial resistance, and> 4 lack of resistance. Cytokine levels
were determined with use of ELISA test. NFκB activation was assayed by …
