title: Inhibition of the intracellular growth of Histoplasma capsulatum by recombinant murine gamma interferon.
abstract: Recombinant murine gamma interferon as well as lymphokines prepared from immune splenocytes and concanavalin A-stimulated T-cell hybridoma activated normal mouse peritoneal macrophages to inhibit the intracellular growth of Histoplasma capsulatum. The activities of the lymphokine from immune splenocytes and of recombinant murine gamma interferon were neutralized by rabbit anti-murine gamma interferon antibody. The intracellular yeasts were not killed by the interaction even though growth was completely inhibited.
