Published: April 2007

We examined how Newcastle disease virus (NDV) and influenza A virus (IAV) inactivated by 5% formaldehyde, used either alone or in combination, can induce apoptosis in both HeLa and SP2/0 cells. Inactive NDV and IAV demonstrated enhanced rates of lysis in apoptotic tumor cells and greater antitumor effects when combined. Our study supports the argument that viral replication does not cause virally induced apoptosis.
