Antiviral Effect of Lithium Chloride on Replication of Marek’s Disease Virus in Chicken Embryonic Fibroblasts
To investigate the antiviral effect of lithium chloride (LiCl) on the replication of Marek’s disease virus (MDV) in chicken embryonic fibroblast (CEF) cells, real-time PCR, Western blotting, plaque counting, and indirect immunofluorescence experiments were performed at different time points of LiCl...
