We found that the maximal inhibition effect of NAP on PRRSV replication was achieved upon treatment 1 h after virus infection and the virus yield was reduced by approximately 50 fold in the presence of 400 μM NAP. To date, NAP is only used as the negative control for SNAP to study the inhibitory effect of NO on virus replication in previous studies, and its antiviral activity was not reported. Unexpectedly, NAP, the "commonly used" negative control for NO-donor SNAP had a significant antiviral activity against PRRSV replication (Fig. 1a ) at low infectious dose (MOI=0.05). The inhibitory effect of NAP in Marc-145 cells was investigated by determining the kinetics of PRRSV production under different NAP treatments. ./cache/cord-352967-y1fyke9u.txt ./txt/cord-352967-y1fyke9u.txt
