Effect of interferon on antibody-dependent cellular cytotoxicity (ADCC) in chickens. 1984

Y Mándi, and M Bakay, and I Béládi

The influence of chicken leukocyte interferon (IFN) on the antibody-dependent cellular cytotoxicity (ADCC) of peripheral blood mononuclear cells of chickens has been investigated in vivo and in vitro. The cytotoxic effect was studied on sheep red blood cells (SRBC) coated with chicken anti-SRBC serum. Cytotoxicity was estimated using a 51Cr release assay system. A single intravenous injection of crude IFN led to an enhanced ADCC 6 to 12 h after the IFN injection, whereas by 24 h the activity had decreased. The ability of IFN to augment the cytotoxicity was not lost after phagocytic cell depletion. In vitro, the ADCC was boosted within 1-18 h by IFN, in a dose-dependent manner. We assume that the augmenting agent in vitro is IFN itself, as purified IFN had a similar activity, but mock IFN and trypsin-treated IFN showed no enhancing effect.

D007370 Interferon Type I Interferon secreted by leukocytes, fibroblasts, or lymphoblasts in response to viruses or interferon inducers other than mitogens, antigens, or allo-antigens. They include alpha- and beta-interferons (INTERFERON-ALPHA and INTERFERON-BETA). Interferons Type I,Type I Interferon,Type I Interferons,Interferon, Type I,Interferons, Type I
D008214 Lymphocytes White blood cells formed in the body's lymphoid tissue. The nucleus is round or ovoid with coarse, irregularly clumped chromatin while the cytoplasm is typically pale blue with azurophilic (if any) granules. Most lymphocytes can be classified as either T or B (with subpopulations of each), or NATURAL KILLER CELLS. Lymphoid Cells,Cell, Lymphoid,Cells, Lymphoid,Lymphocyte,Lymphoid Cell
D009000 Monocytes Large, phagocytic mononuclear leukocytes produced in the vertebrate BONE MARROW and released into the BLOOD; contain a large, oval or somewhat indented nucleus surrounded by voluminous cytoplasm and numerous organelles. Monocyte

D000818 Animals Unicellular or multicellular, heterotrophic organisms, that have sensation and the power of voluntary movement. Under the older five kingdom paradigm, Animalia was one of the kingdoms. Under the modern three domain model, Animalia represents one of the many groups in the domain EUKARYOTA.

D000920 Antibody-Dependent Cell Cytotoxicity The phenomenon of antibody-mediated target cell destruction by non-sensitized effector cells. The identity of the target cell varies, but it must possess surface IMMUNOGLOBULIN G whose Fc portion is intact. The effector cell is a "killer" cell possessing Fc receptors. It may be a lymphocyte lacking conventional B- or T-cell markers, or a monocyte, macrophage, or polynuclear leukocyte, depending on the identity of the target cell. The reaction is complement-independent.
