Summary

Herpes simplex virus (HSV) hyperresistant neuroblastoma cells (clone Cl300 RII) were latently infected with HSV-1 if cultured in presence of HSV-neutralizing antibody for one or two passages after infection and then passaged further without antibody. By superinfecting HSV-1 latently infected Cl300 RII cells with HSV-2, progeny virus with HSV-1 characteristics was regularly rescued. Such retrieval of HSV-1 decreased with passage of the latently infected cells.
