Mumps virus is isolated in Vero cells and, recently, B95a cells have been reported to be susceptible to it. Currently circulating wild-type mumps virus strains (genotypes B, G, J and L) induced cytopathic effects in both Vero and B95a cells. On the other hand, the Hoshino vaccine strain (KO3) did not induce cytopathic effects in B95a cells. In this study, differences in fusion inducibility were investigated.
