Figure 4

Intra-cellular RNP production and localization is not affected by EF. H5N1 HPAIV (MOI = 1) and MDCK cells were either left untreated or were treated with EF as follows: (-) EF, normal infection with no EF treatment; (EF p.i.), infected cells treated with EF (50 μg/ml) after infection; virus (+) EF, virus pretreated with EF (50 μg/ml); cells (+) EF, cells pretreated with EF (50 μg/ml), and infected with untreated virus. Infected cells were then incubated in medium with or without EF for 6 and 8 hours and the intra-cellular amount and localization of viral RNPs (green), as well as the nuclei (blue), were detected by immunofluorescence.
