Lack of detectable circulating interferon in mice protected against vaccinia virus by induction and elicitation with bacterial systems.

چکیده
Mice which had been subjected to mycobacterial infection and specific elicitation were bled from the orbital sinus at the time the mice were challenged intravenously with vaccinia virus. Assays of the sera were negative for interferon. Sera of rabbits sensitized with staphylococci and elicited by Staphage Lysate also lacked detectable circulating interferon.

Interferon Induction and Resistance to Virus Infection in Mice Infected with Brucella abortus.
Induction of circulating interferon and protection against vaccinia virus infection in mice by injection of Brucella abortus were studied. It was demonstrated that morphologically intact brucellae (either live or killed by heat or exposure to NaOH) induce high and prolonged levels of circulating interferon in mice. In each instance, the inducing principle remained associated with the bacterial ...
متن کاملProtection of rabbits against local vaccinia virus infection by Brucella abortus and polyacrylic acid in the absence of systemic interferon production.
Brucella abortus and polyacrylic acid, two agents whose interferon-inducing capacity in the mouse has been well established, failed to stimulate circulating interferon production in rabbits, yet protected rabbits against local vaccinia virus infection.
متن کاملStimulation of murine interferon by a substituted pyrimidine.
2-Amino-5-bromo-6-methyl-4-pyrimidinol (U-25,166) induced high levels of circulating interferon in mice when administered either parenterally or orally. Peak titers of interferon were found in the serum between 6 and 12 h after inoculation of the drug. Lower but significant levels of interferon were found in rat serum after administration of U-25,166 by either the intraperitoneal or oral route,...
متن کاملCross-protection against microvariants of influenza virus type B by vaccinia viruses expressing haemagglutinins from egg- or MDCK cell-derived subpopulations of influenza virus type B/England/222/82.
B/Singapore/222/79-like influenza viruses isolated from three patients during the winter of 1981 to 1982 and cultured in either embryonated hens' eggs or MDCK cells were studied. Sequence analysis indicated that the haemagglutinin (HA) genes of the six virus preparations contained at least four distinct HA1 sequences which differed by up to six amino acids. Only one pair of viruses had amino ac...
متن کاملInduction of Protective Cytotoxic T Cell Responses in the Presence of High Titers of Virus-neutralizing Antibodies: Implications for Passive and Active Immunization
The effect of preexistent virus-neutralizing antibodies on the active induction of antiviral T cell responses was studied in two model infections in mice. Against the noncytopathic lymphocytic choriomeningitis virus (LCMV), pretreatment with neutralizing antibodies conferred immediate protection against systemic virus spread and controlled the virus below detectable levels. However, presence of...
