Enhancement by poly-D-lysine of poly I: C-induced interferon production in mice.
نویسندگان
چکیده
Poly-d-lysine of high molecular weight enhances interferon induction in mice by the double-stranded complex of polyinosinic and polycytidylic acids and is superior to diethylaminoethyl-dextran in this respect.

Mechanistic studies of polyene enhancement of interferon production by polyriboinosinic-polyribocytidylic acid.
The production of interferon by polyriboinosinic-polyribocytidylic acid [poly(I) . poly(C)] and poly(I) . poly(C)-diethylaminoethyl-dextran in L929 cells was enhanced from 10 to 100 times by polyene macrolides, including amphotericin B (AmB), AmB methyl ester, nystatin, and filipin. AmB and its water-soluble methyl ester were the most effective; retinol, a nonmacrolide polyene, was ineffective....
متن کاملIntranasal Poly-IC treatment exacerbates tuberculosis in mice through the pulmonary recruitment of a pathogen-permissive monocyte/macrophage population.
Type I IFN has been demonstrated to have major regulatory effects on the outcome of bacterial infections. To assess the effects of exogenously induced type I IFN on the outcome of Mycobacterium tuberculosis infection, we treated pathogen-exposed mice intranasally with polyinosinic-polycytidylic acid condensed with poly-l-lysine and carboxymethylcellulose (Poly-ICLC), an agent designed to stimul...
متن کاملStudy of the in vivo priming effect of interferon in mice.
Intramuscular injection of mice with 2000 IU/g partially purified murine interferon (IFN) alpha/beta 3 h before the induction of IFN by intraperitoneally administered 3 micrograms/g poly rI:rC enhanced early IFN production. The differences between the serum IFN levels of IFN-pretreated and control animals were about 10-fold during the first 2 to 3 h of in vivo IFN production. In later stages th...
متن کاملActivation of natural killer cells inhibits liver regeneration in toxin-induced liver injury model in mice via a tumor necrosis factor-alpha-dependent mechanism.
Liver lymphocytes are enriched in natural killer (NK) cells, and activation of NK cells by injection of polyinosinic-polycytidylic acid (poly I:C) inhibits liver regeneration in the partial hepatectomy model via production of IFN-gamma. However, the role of NK cells in liver regeneration in a model of carbon tetrachloride (CCl(4))-induced liver injury remains unknown. In this study, we investig...
متن کاملInterferon synthesis in x-irradiated animals v. Origin of mouse serum interferon induced by polyinosinic-polycytidylic Acid and encephalomyocarditis virus.
The radioresistant cell systems producing serum interferon after intravenous administration of polyinosinic-polycytidylic acid [poly(I.C)] or encephalomyocarditis virus in mice were studied in rat-to-mouse radiation chimeras. Interferon induced by poly(I.C) became of donor type within 3 months after grafting of irradiated C3H/He mice with Wistar rat bone marrow cells; this indicated that it was...
