[Superinduction of interferon and and a study of its messenger RNA]. 1977

F I Ershov, and T M Sokolova, and A A Kadyrova

Combined use of interferon inductor poly-IC and antibiotics (cycloheximide and actinomycin D) provided a significant increase (up to 1000 times) in interferon production by chick, mouse, monkey and human cells. Messenger RNA with matrix activity for interferon (mRNA-IF) was isolated from superinduced cells. On translation of mRNA-IF in homogenous and heterogenous cells the specificity of interferons produced was determined by the type of the cells from which mRNA-IF was isolated. Sedimentation analysis of various mRNA-IF revealed 2 peaks of activity: major (5--15S) and minor (25--30S).

UI MeSH Term Description Entries
D007369 Interferon Inducers Agents that promote the production and release of interferons. They include mitogens, lipopolysaccharides, and the synthetic polymers Poly A-U and Poly I-C. Viruses, bacteria, and protozoa have been also known to induce interferons. Inducers, Interferon
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
D011070 Poly I-C Interferon inducer consisting of a synthetic, mismatched double-stranded RNA. The polymer is made of one strand each of polyinosinic acid and polycytidylic acid. Poly(I-C),Poly(rI).Poly(rC),Polyinosinic-Polycytidylic Acid,Polyinosinic-Polycytidylic Acid (High MW),Polyriboinosinic-Polyribocytidylic Acid,Polyribose Inosin-Cytidil,Inosin-Cytidil, Polyribose,Poly I C,Polyinosinic Polycytidylic Acid,Polyriboinosinic Polyribocytidylic Acid,Polyribose Inosin Cytidil
D002460 Cell Line Established cell cultures that have the potential to propagate indefinitely. Cell Lines,Line, Cell,Lines, Cell
D002499 Centrifugation, Density Gradient Separation of particles according to density by employing a gradient of varying densities. At equilibrium each particle settles in the gradient at a point equal to its density.

D002645 Chickens Common name for the species Gallus gallus, the domestic fowl, in the family Phasianidae, order GALLIFORMES. It is descended from the red jungle fowl of SOUTHEAST ASIA. Gallus gallus,Gallus domesticus,Gallus gallus domesticus,Chicken
D003513 Cycloheximide Antibiotic substance isolated from streptomycin-producing strains of Streptomyces griseus. It acts by inhibiting elongation during protein synthesis. Actidione,Cicloheximide
D003609 Dactinomycin A compound composed of a two CYCLIC PEPTIDES attached to a phenoxazine that is derived from STREPTOMYCES parvullus. It binds to DNA and inhibits RNA synthesis (transcription), with chain elongation more sensitive than initiation, termination, or release. As a result of impaired mRNA production, protein synthesis also declines after dactinomycin therapy.
