Retrograde axonal transport of rabies virus is unaffected by interferon treatment but blocked by emetine locally in axons

Retrograde RABV infection is unaffected by axonal interferon treatment.
(A) Cell bodies in S at 24 h post RABV P-mCherry infection in N. IFNβ or IFNγ was added to N for 24 h prior to axonal infection (scale bars = 250 μm). (B) Quantification of % infected cell bodies at 24 hpi (+/-) IFNβ or IFNγ in N or S. Black dots represent individual tri-chambers (from three independent replicates). Horizontal lines and errors bars represent mean ± SD for each condition with *p = 0.0114, ****p < 0.0001 using one- way ANOVA (ns = not significant).
