Inhibition of Newcastle disease virus-induced fever in rabbits by cycloheximide. 1975

R Siegert, and W K Philipp-Dormston, and K Radsak, and H Menzel

Pretreatment with cycloheximide prevents virus-induced fever in rabbits. Compared to the febrile control animals, CH-pretreated afebrile animals exhibit similar concentrations of endogenous pyrogen in the blood and of prostaglandins of the E-group and adenosine 3', 5'-cycle monophosphate in the cerebrospinal fluid. The fever response seems to involve one or several additional so far unknown mediators which are sensitive to cycloheximide.

Three of the six naturally occurring prostaglandins. They are considered primary in that no one is derived from another in living organisms. Originally isolated from sheep seminal fluid and vesicles, they are found in many organs and tissues and play a major role in mediating various physiological activities. PGE
