Key result

Poliomyelitis viruses (Types 1 and 2) successfully propagated in and destroyed monkey testicular fibroblasts in vitro, an effect neutralized by type-specific antibodies.

Population

Monkey testicular tissue fibroblasts in morphologically pure cultures and primary explant cultures

Comparison

Infection with poliomyelitis virus, Types 1 and 2 vs Type specific antibodies

Design

Preclinical

Implication

Advances in vitro poliovirus models using monkey fibroblasts; leaves open translation to human vaccines or therapies.

Structured PICO

P
Population
Monkey testicular tissue fibroblasts in morphologically pure cultures and primary explant cultures
I
Intervention
Infection with poliomyelitis virus, Types 1 and 2 (including Yale-SK strain for Type 2)
C
Comparator
Type specific antibodies
O
Outcome
Viral growth and cell destructionsurrogate

Monkey testicular fibroblasts can support the in vitro growth of poliomyelitis viruses, leading to cell destruction that is preventable by specific antibodies.

Cite This Study

Scherer et al. (1952) studied Poliomyelitis virus. Poliomyelitis virus, Types 1 and 2 was evaluated on Viral propagation and cell destruction. Poliomyelitis viruses (Types 1 and 2) successfully propagated in and destroyed monkey testicular fibroblasts in vitro, an effect neutralized by type-specific antibodies.
