Title: Effects of interferon on the human clonal cell line, RSa: inhibition of macromolecular synthesis. Author: Fuse A, Kuwata T. Journal: J Gen Virol; 1976 Oct; 33(1):17-24. PubMed ID: 978184. Abstract: Multiplication of the human clonal cell line, RSa, is completely inhibited by human leukocyte interferon preparations. Synthesis of DNA and protein is markedly reduced in these cells in proportion to the concentration of interferon applied. Interferon treatment leads to accumulation of cells of an epithelial morphology which do not enter the division cycle. It is suggested that the growth inhibitory effects of interferon on RSa cells may result from these effects.[Abstract] [Full Text] [Related] [New Search]
