Amantadine inhibits IV infection-induced RANTES production. BEC that had been preincubated either with medium or various concentrations of amantadine for 1 h were cultured with medium or infected with IV. The concentrations of RANTES in the culture supernatants were determined at 24 h after infection. The results are expressed as the mean±s.d. in six different experiments. ^*1=P<0.05 compared with RANTES concentrations in BEC cultured without amantadine. ^*2=P<0.01 compared with RANTES concentrations in BEC cultured without amantadine.
