Synthesis of spontaneous interferon by mouse peritoneal cells in vitro. II. Characteristics of the process of spontaneous interferon synthesis.
As it was shown previously that the peritoneal cells of mice were capable of producing interferon spontaneously. Spontaneous interferon appeared after 5 to 6 h of incubation of peritoneal cells at 26 degrees C and its highest level has been found after 12 h. The production of spontaneous interferon was inhibited by 4 h incubation of peritoneal cells at a temperature of 37 degrees C as well as by actinomycin D added at 0 to 4 h.
