Modulation of natural killer cell activity in mice after interferon induction: depression of activity and depression of in vitro enhancement by interferon.
Splenic natural killer (NK) cell activity of BALB/c and C3H mice was assayed after administration of the interferon inducers Escherichia coli endotoxin or Newcastle disease virus (NDV). As expected, the NK cell activity rose early in response to the interferon inducers. At 1 to 3 days after an injection of endotoxin, NK activity was hyperesponsive to interferon stimulation. At 5 to 9 days after...
متن کاملProtection of mice against bacterial infection by interferon inducers.
Antibacterial effect of known interferon inducers was investigated. Intraperitoneal injection of statolon or pyran markedly enhanced the survival of mice challenged with Klebsiella pneumoniae. The sparing effect of these two interferon inducers resembled that of bacterial endotoxin. Significant protection was obtained when the inducers were administered 24 hr before challenge. Treatments given ...
متن کاملNonviral Interferon Inducers
Interferon production can be stimulated by a great variety of microbial and nonmicrobial agents other than viruses. The nonmicrobial inducers can be divided into polyanions, mitogens, and a miscellaneous category including the various endotoxins and antibiotics. The polyanions appear to require a stable, high molecular weight backbone and a high density of free anionic groups whether they are p...
متن کاملAntiviral and interferon-inducing properties of interferon inducers administered with prostaglandins.
Prostaglandins enhanced the interferon response and therapeutic activity of interferon inducers in Friend leukemia virus-infected mice. A similar enhancement in interfron responsiveness but not antiviral activity was observed in mice infected with rapidly acute viruses.
متن کاملEffects of ackA, pta and poxB inhibition by antisense RNA on acetate excretion and recombinant beta interferon expression in Escherichia coli
Introduction: Escherichia coli (E.coli) is one of the most widely used hosts for the production of recombinant proteins. The main problem in getting high product yields and productivity is the accumulation of acetic acid (acetate) as an unwanted metabolic by-product. In this study, an antisense-based strategy as a metabolic engineering approach was employed to hamper the acetate excretion probl...
