摘要:Cycloheximide, at a protein-inhibitory concentration, when given to rabbit kidney cell cultures that had been exposed either to UV-irradiated Newcastle Disease virus or to a complex of polyinosinic and polycytidylic acids (poly I{middle dot}poly C), enhanced the production of interferon. The enhancement was greater if, in addition to cycloheximide, the cells were also treated with actinomycin D. On the basis of these findings, a mechanism, consisting primarily of the production of a control protein which normally checks interferon production, is postulated for interferons stimulated by these two substances.
