ABSTRACT
An interaction between sarcoma-180/TG cells and vesicular stomatitis virus in adult mice resulted in the rapid onset of extensive mortality. This interaction, termed lethal synergy, occurred only at early stages of ascites induction in animals with no prior virus contact. A significant sparing effect conferred by the serotonin antagonist dibenamine was reversed by the administration of serotonin. The cause of death was not determined, but a mechanism involving hypersensitivity is indicated.
