Abstract
- The in vitro effect of different doses of alpha, beta and gamma human interferons and their interaction on the proliferation rate of human erythroleukemic cell line (K-562) and other cell lines has been evaluated. The results show that the stronger activity is exerted by beta HIF in comparison with alpha HIF. The action is selective and species-specific. beta HIF never elicited an "enhancing" effect on cell proliferation; on the contrary this phenomenon has been observed to occur with alpha and gamma HIF. In our cell system, the interaction between beta and gamma HIF gave a synergistic effect; on the contrary, no interaction has been observed to take place when beta HIF and directly cytotoxic mycotoxins extracted from A. terreus are associated.
