Figure Lengend Snippet: (A–D) A549 (A), HCT 116 (B), HeLa (C), and MIA PaCa-2 (D) cells were infected with serial dilutions of each virus. Cell viability was assessed 4 days post-infection using the CellTiter-Blue assay and normalized to uninfected controls. Data represent the mean ± SD from three independent experiments. (E) EC₅₀ values for each virus in each cell line were calculated by fitting a sigmoidal dose–response curve to the viability data shown in panels A–D. Statistical significance was determined relative to the VACV group using one-way ANOVA: p < 0.05 (*).

Figure Lengend Snippet: (A) Viral amplification in A549 cells. Monolayers were infected at a MOI of 10⁻³. At 3 days post-infection, both supernatants and cells were collected, and viral progeny were quantified by plaque assay. Results are expressed as fold amplification, calculated as the output/input ratio. Data represent mean ± SD from three independent experiments. Statistical significance was assessed against the VACV group using one-way ANOVA: not significant (ns), p < 0.05 (*), p < 0.01 (**). (B) Ratio of EEV to total progeny virus (IMV + EEV). A549 cell monolayers were infected with the indicated viruses at a MOI of 0.1. Viral titers were determined for EEV (supernatant only) and total progeny virus (IMV + EEV; combined supernatants and cells). Data represent mean ± SD from three independent experiments. Statistical significance was assessed against the VACV group using one-way ANOVA: not significant (ns), p < 0.05 (*), p < 0.01 (**).
