Task: Answer Verification
Input (English): Question: Does fungal metabolite myriocin promote human herpes simplex virus-2 infection?
Answer: We found that myriocin promotes HSV-2 replication at nanomolar concentrations with yet unknown mechanisms. Further studies may uncover novel mechanisms regulating HSV replication and targets of myriocin action. This may have potential application in enhancing efficacy of oncolytic HSV for cancer therapy and other diseases.
Output (English): yes
