Popis: New results of combined therapy of herpetic infection in Vero cells infected with herpes simplex type I virus resistant to acyclovir (acycloguanosine, Zovirax) are presented. Paraaminobenzoic acid stimulates antiherpetic effects of acycloguanosine, 5-(2-bromovinyl)-2′-deoxyuridine and adenine 9-β-d-arabinofuranoside. para-aminobenzoic acid alone is incapable of suppressing type I herpes simplex virus reproduction in cell culture. Modified nucleosides combined with it exert a higher selective antiherpetic effect. Para-aminobenzoic acid is capable of inactivating herpes viruses in culture medium.
