In Vitro Acyclovir reduces cell viability in a dose- and timedependent, blocks DNA synthesis, thereby arresting the cell cycle in G2/M and S phases and increasing the sub-G1 hypodiploid peak in a dose-dependent manner.
Acyclovir induces Apoptosis through activates Caspase-3 and presences nuclear DNA fragmentation.
In Vivo Acyclovir (20 mg/kg; p.o.; three times daily; for 10 days; BALB/c mice) treatment in infected mice suppresses the development of skin lesions and results in a dissociation between DTH response and antibody production.
