[Sensitivity of various primate cells and animal viruses to the antiviral activity of human leukocyte interferon (author's transl)]. 1975

J Hilfenhaus, and H Thierfelder, and R Barth

U cells (a permanent, human amnion cell line) were protected against infection with Semliki Forest Virus (SFV) by human interferon (HIF) from peripheral leukocytes. Despite the usual genus-specific action of interferons, mouse L929 cultures (a permanent mouse fibroblast cell line) were also protected by HIF. The antiviral action of HIF in six other primate cell cultures was also examined. It is of interest that two lymphoblastoid cell lines, RPMI1788 and Kaplan, were insensitive to HIF. The sensitivity of ten different viruses against HIF in primary African green monkey kidney cell cultures was compared. Among the viruses tested SFV was the most sensitive whereas two strains of vaccinia virus were barely inhibited. In contrast, type 1 herpes simplex virus was relatively sensitive to the action of HIF.

UI MeSH Term Description Entries
D007372 Interferons Proteins secreted by vertebrate cells in response to a wide variety of inducers. They confer resistance against many different viruses, inhibit proliferation of normal and malignant cells, impede multiplication of intracellular parasites, enhance macrophage and granulocyte phagocytosis, augment natural killer cell activity, and show several other immunomodulatory functions. Interferon
