An interferon-induced refractory state of L cells: role of the nucleus and cytoplasm. 1980

B D Lahm, and G Veomett

Pre-treatment of L cells with 750 units/ml of mouse interferon depressed the yield of interferon when the cells were treated with Newcastle disease virus (NDV). The refractory state persisted for more than 5 days. Nucleated fragments (karyoplasts) obtained by cytochalasin B-induced enucleation were made from such interferon pre-treated cells; cells reconstituted from these karyoplasts produced less interferon in response to NDV than did cells reconstituted from karyoplasts derived from untreated cells. The source of the enucleated cytoplasm (cytoplasts) used in the cellular reconstitutions did not affect the yields of interferon.

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

D009522 Newcastle disease virus The most well known avian paramyxovirus in the genus AVULAVIRUS and the cause of a highly infectious pneumoencephalitis in fowl. It is also reported to cause CONJUNCTIVITIS in humans. Transmission is by droplet inhalation or ingestion of contaminated water or food. Avian Paramyxovirus 1,Paramyxovirus 1, Avian
D002467 Cell Nucleus Within a eukaryotic cell, a membrane-limited body which contains chromosomes and one or more nucleoli (CELL NUCLEOLUS). The nuclear membrane consists of a double unit-type membrane which is perforated by a number of pores; the outermost membrane is continuous with the ENDOPLASMIC RETICULUM. A cell may contain more than one nucleus. (From Singleton & Sainsbury, Dictionary of Microbiology and Molecular Biology, 2d ed) Cell Nuclei,Nuclei, Cell,Nucleus, Cell
D003571 Cytochalasin B A cytotoxic member of the CYTOCHALASINS. Phomin
D003593 Cytoplasm The part of a cell that contains the CYTOSOL and small structures excluding the CELL NUCLEUS; MITOCHONDRIA; and large VACUOLES. (Glick, Glossary of Biochemistry and Molecular Biology, 1990) Protoplasm,Cytoplasms,Protoplasms
