In vitro effects of selenium deficiency on West Nile virus replication and cytopathogenicity

BACKGROUND: Selenium (Se) deficiency plays an important role in viral pathogenesis. To understand the effects of Se deficiency on West Nile virus (WNV) infection, we analyzed cytopathogenicity, apoptosis and viral replication kinetics, using a newly developed Se-deficient cell culture system. RESULT...
