Interferon-induced indoleamine 2,3-dioxygenase activity in human mononuclear phagocytes.
Interferon (IFN)-induced tryptophan degradation, catalyzed by indoleamine 2,3-dioxygenase (IDO), has been shown to mediate antimicrobial activity in epithelial cells. IDO activity has also been augmented in peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMC) treated with IFN or interleukin-2 (IL-2). The effector cells in this population have now been further characterized. PBMCs were isolated from normal...
متن کاملInterferon‐beta signaling in retinal mononuclear phagocytes attenuates pathological neovascularization
Age-related macular degeneration (AMD) is a leading cause of vision loss among the elderly. AMD pathogenesis involves chronic activation of the innate immune system including complement factors and microglia/macrophage reactivity in the retina. Here, we show that lack of interferon-β signaling in the retina accelerates mononuclear phagocyte reactivity and promotes choroidal neovascularization (...
متن کاملControl of Interferon Production in Rabbit Cells Treated with Poly I:C
I would like to report some of our recent work on the stimulation of rabbit interferon by the double-stranded complex of polyinosinic acid and polycytidylic acid (poly I:C). Most of the work I shall describe was done by Doctors Chris Tan, Yan-hsien Ke, Monto Ho, and myself. Our starting point was Vilcek's interesting work on the accentuation of interferon response in rabbit kidney cells by cycl...
متن کاملSuperoxide production by phagocytes in myeloid Graffi tumor-bearing hamsters.
A progressive suppression of the phagocytic ability of peritoneal macrophages and polymorphonuclears (PMNs) in hamsters with transplanted myeloid tumors was previously established. The i.p. application of Cu/Zn SOD, isolated from the fungal strain Humicola lutea (HLSOD) (2 injections before and 5 injections after tumor transplantation) induced the mean survival time of the animals as well as a ...
متن کاملInterferon production and sensitivity of rabbit corneal epithelial and stromal cells.
The induction of interferon and the ability of interferon to induce the antiviral state were studied using rabbit corneal epithelial and stromal cells which were cultured for fewer than five passages. Interferon titers in the range of 7000 units/ml were induced in epithelial cell cultures and 76,000 units/ml in stromal cell cultures treated with UV-inactivated bluetongue virus. The interferon i...
