Herpes Simplex Virus Type 1 Replication in a Gingival Cell Line

R. D. FLETCHER 1, J. GUGGENHEIMER 1, D. SUMNEY 1, and D. PLATT 1

Propagation of herpes simplex virus type 1 (HSV-1) in gingival cells is advantageous since these cells are more definitive than HeLa cells in demonstrating viral-induced cytopathic effects and are easily and economically maintained in the laboratory. They also provide a potential medium for studying oral tissue reactions to HSV-1 infection. HSV-1-induced cytopathic effects are cle(arly characterized following inoculation with viruts from standard laboratory cultures and human infections.
