Figure 7From: Cell surface sialylation affects binding of enterovirus 71 to rhabdomyosarcoma and neuroblastoma cellsFetuin blocks the attachment of EV71 to RD cells. Cells were preincubated with fetuin or asialofetuin and infected with EV71. Asialofetuin showed no effect on virus binding, but the attachment of EV71 to RD cells decreased by 12% to 14% in fetuin preincubated cells. *: P < 0.05; **: P < 0.01 (two-tailed test). Each of the results was averaged from at least seven independent assays.Back to article page
