Description
Summary:Department of Pediatrics Harbor General Hospital UCLA School of Medicine, 1000 W. Carson Street Torrance, California 90509 U.S.A. Infection of chicken embryonic heart, lung and liver cells with parainfluenza 1 and 3 viruses revealed that the most susceptible (S) cell is the heart cell and the least susceptible (LS) cell is the liver cell. The results of these experiments are similar to observations where the S and LS cell for another paramyxovirus, mumps virus, were also cultivated from the chicken embryonic heart and liver, respectively. Received 19 March 1974; accepted 5 July 1974.
