Unperturbed viral replication by IRF7 in corneal endothelial cells. (a) The level of HSV-1 DNA in HCEn cells was determined at 24 h after the infection using real-time PCR. The amount of HSV-1 DNA is not reduced for IRF7-competent wild type HCEn cells. N = 6. (b) Transcript of an immediately early gene infected cell protein 0 (ICP0) of HSV-1, was evaluated in HCEn cells at 12 h after infection using real-time RT-PCR. ICP-0 induction is not perturbed for IRF7-competent wild type HCEn cells. N = 8. (c) Titration plaque assay for HCEn cells after infection. The HSV-1 titer is not perturbed for IRF7-competent wild type HCEn cells. N = 6.
