Whereas treatment with 1 μM of Bay11 at 0.5 h before infection reduced γHV68 plaque number by 52%, the same treatment at 7 h post-infection (h.p.i.)reduced the plaque number by 29%, emphasizing the important roles of IKKβ during early γHV68 infection (Figure 3A). The gene discussed is IKBKB; the disease is infection.
