title: beta-Interferon alters the pattern of proteins secreted from quiescent and platelet-derived growth factor-treated BALB/c-3T3 cells.
abstract: Mouse beta-interferon (at a concentration of 100 units/ml or higher) inhibited the platelet-derived growth factor (PDGF)-induced replication of quiescent BALB/c-3T3 cells. The interferon treatment did not inhibit, but slightly enhanced, the accumulation of the following three PDGF-induced RNAs: myc RNA, JE RNA, and KC RNA. The treatment with interferon changed the pattern of secreted proteins from quiescent cells and from cells treated with partially purified PDGF; it inhibited the accumulation of the PDGF-induced proteins (including proteins of 63 and 32 kDa) and it induced the accumulation of several other proteins (including proteins of 89, 31.5, 30, and 10.5 kDa) in both quiescent and also in PDGF-treated cells.
