The vaccinia virus C12L protein inhibits mouse IL-18 and promotes virus virulence in the murine intranasal model.
A bioassay that measured the interleukin (IL)-12-induced production of interferon (IFN)-gamma from mouse splenocytes was used to identify a soluble factor in the supernatants of vaccinia virus (VV)-infected cells that inhibited the production of IFN-gamma. This soluble factor was expressed by 14 out...
